    Every day, thousands of parents are choosing to give a powerful gift to their newborns: Cord Blood Banking. The following explains exactly what cord blood is and how, by storing it, you can help protect your baby's future health.

    First things first. What is Cord Blood? The blood that remains in your baby's umbilical cord after it has been cut is called cord blood and is rich in stem cells. Stem cells are one of the most promising areas of medical treatment for a number of common illnesses such as heart disease and Alzheimer's. They're the body's "master" cells and can regenerate into the cells that form all other tissues, organs, and systems in the body. Many families are now choosing to bank these genetically unique cord blood stem cells for the future health of their loved ones.

    You have one chance to collect your baby's amazing cells for your baby and family - at birth. Click here for your free information kit to learn how easy it is to collect and store your baby's powerful cord blood with CBR!
