Did you know the first moments after birth offer incredible opportunities to promote baby's health and long-term development?
In this episode, Shazi discusses the birth of her daughter Asha with her OB/GYN, Dr. Katherine Kohari, and why she made the decision to bank Asha’s cord blood privately. She also speaks with midwife McKenna Eldh, who explains the benefits of delayed cord clamping, which midwives have traditionally practiced and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) now recommends.
We also hear from biomedical engineer and CEO of EpiBone, Nina Tandon, on the incredible ways that stem cells are being used to repair diseased or damaged tissue later in life.
