Dr Mendenhall, outstanding presentation. I have lived with knee pain for 30 years. Arthroscopy 25 years ago solved nothing. Now I have hope ! Do you need a 61 year old former athlete in any upcoming trials ? :)
It will be mind blowing good and important if you were to make this technology globally available. Also make it available for elbow and shoulder cartilage damage. I have beyond extreme pain.!!! In my elbows, shoulders and upper and lower back. Your kind of work is much more important than exploring space! I'm not in the USA and we have very few options in my country!! 😢😢
omg thanks friend...she is talking in soooooooooo low volume it gave me anxiety while paying such keen attention, as i have some ear problems and not supposed to put on ear phones much...and she also spoke so slow, at the speed of 1.5 atleast i could complete the video sooner😓😓even my little speaker couldnt make her volume loud enough to make it a comfortable volume🙄😒
“Patients older than 60 years with knee osteoarthritis and with significant symptoms corresponding to an index of severity of knee disease of 10 or more, comprise the group most likely to benefit from treatment with intra-articular hyaluronan injections.” younger groups or less severe had no difference to placebo. The data does support this conclusion. It’s very strange. Only thing I can think of is the younger patients knees turned over/removed the hy acid. Otoh even the placebo filler had a pretty lasting impact on some pain reduction, replacing lost synovial fluid I guess.

I have OA stage 1and suffered from pain an stiffness in d knees. I had stem cell transplant and my right shoulder healed d same day. my lt knee took 8 months n my rt knee improved but it still hurt in d daytime n thankfully not at night so i could sleep. Then 2+ yrs later d pain in my rt knee started at night. i didnt want to take pain killers n anti inflammatories because they give me gastritis. I prayed n asked God for healing. i also prayed for my fatty liver n to lose weight. Within days the Lord said CUT OUT SUGAR. I thought
#1- I thought I was going to hear about this "injection" but sadly...no, so NO WHITE SUGAR, NO WHITE BREAD, NO WHITE WHEAT folk...our American diet is destructive one. The FDA has not upgraded it's health charts...but if you stop eating junk foods, sodas, that's a step 1. #2, we ALL need bone broth collagen protein daily for maintenance and 3x for us with bone issues... because by age 40+, we will all end up like the Dr. spoke of above. We need to take Glucosamine/Chondroitin/MSM, in "triple stength", calcium in form of either coral calcium, or calcium MCHA, look it up, all triple strengths, we must do our homework. Omega 3 triple strength, D3/K2, to strengthen all our bones...I would have loved to know what's the name of the injection...I see some comments below. I did prp injection for my neck...It did not work for me...again I'm 73 and don't know if age is a factor???
Try to stay away from night shade vegetables, as they induce or aggravate joint inflammation. Also check the the other foods to be avoided by Dr. Gundry.
Outstanding informative but a long speech--she's over 40!! She could easily pass for 25!! Where does one go from here for our knees to be restored?? I have been holding off of surgery for various reasons, had stem cell injections, prolotherapy, "chicken shots," now cortisone. You name it--this looks like the right answer for me, hopefully.
Ted needs to take this video down as the therapy that she's talking about is no longer available! And I agree with all the comments about get to the damn point
Brilliance!! Love your disruptive approach. Your technological perspectives are spot on in what I suspect would be transformative and welcomed by millions!! Well done my friend!!
God Bless you! Praying you make a difference and help many in pain... I volunteer to be a test dummy if you need one! Or where can I get this new treatment for my two bum knees.. Thank you! YOU ROCK! And I hope to find out more about this and the name of the medical product... Wishing you great success!
I had my knee replaced and my other knee needs 1 now too. Flashy promo but no actual evidence was presented. Sorry but you need evidence through clinical trials and medical peer reviews that this works before bringing ,possibly, false hope to people.
Pretty sure it’s a good seminar but thanks, we need more ppl that’ll tell what it’s about before we go searching 2 hrs just to find out it’s not there. Looking for straight to the point
I tried locating her company, in Austell, GA, but it appears to have been dissolved in 2016. I wish Dr. Mendenhall would respond to some of the comments. I think this could help me
Nice. Why does Ted allow people to come on their program and give the suffering hope, then the presenter just disappears and can not be found. This sucks!
Doc this sounds like a wonderful idea, I hope you complete your work on this and it my be available to world very soon. I’m definitely going be on the lookout for this. Also if anyone reads this comment prophylactic enzymes does wonders for my inflammation. Just a thought 💭
I have just heard your Ted Talk on TH-cam and felt that I must write to you about my immediate need to see what can be done about my knee problem. Well, I am 79 but in good health; I have been trying to avoid knee-replacement; of course, my efforts are those of a layman following a diet and exercise regimen (suggested by chiropractors, orthopedics and homegrown therapies). I am not sure you will have enough time to respond to my appeal for advice. But if you can spare a little time, please suggest me how to go about this problem from assessment of possibilities to actual therapeutic measures.
I think this is good but knee problems happen most of the times because of not having strong leg muscles, where the whole stress moves to the knees. If people understood that not doing physical exercises destroys the body, bones and muscles they could be preventing this type of damages. This damages are just different manifestations of the same problem. Bad living habits, Standard American Dient for example...
Manuel Acosta This is true. But take into account reasons why exercise may be limited to begin with. I was in a rigid back brace as a child. It shortened my quadriceps which I am only now in PT to repair. In the mean time, my knees had been griding for years.
Cortisone helps, but it hurts and takes a few days to start working. The first day was the worst! When they said it gets worse before it gets better, it was so true.
This a TED talk. This is not someone recording from her basement. If you don't have the capability listen to a lengthy presentation, she cannot help you.
Maybe you should work on your attention span. This was a talk given at TED Talk. She is not recording from her basement. People who come to these talks come for the details she is providing. Work on yourself, instead of criticizing people who are doing something about a problem.
SOOOO.....TEDIOUSLY......BORING!!! Then she said nothing about anything!! It was all about me, me, me, me!! I did this.. I did that, in her lab!! But then she never said anything about what the cells and gells are, and what they do!! I mean...she's also totally incorrect. The world of stem cells, are already being used, to generate new collages, and cartilage tissue, in knees, and other joints!!
Cortisone helps, but it hurts and takes a few days to start working. The first day was the worst! When they said it gets worse before it gets better, it was so true.
Dr Mendenhall, your research is brilliant and your presentation is outstanding.

Fantastic speech ! I need this so bad !
Very good talk. Now, where can you have this done? The only disagreement I have is that cartilage can have "scar tissue," which is 70--80% as strong.
Thank you all for saving me the trouble of watching the whole clip
Wow… is so comforting to hear this piece of good news
It will be mind blowing good and important if you were to make this technology globally available. Also make it available for elbow and shoulder cartilage damage. I have beyond extreme pain.!!! In my elbows, shoulders and upper and lower back. Your kind of work is much more important than exploring space! I'm not in the USA and we have very few options in my country!! 😢😢
So proud of you Doc. You have and will continue to shake up the world! We all need some of this in our lives
IMPORTANT NOTE TO SELF! KEEP RESEARCHING.
Watch this at 1.5x speed. You're welcome. Great innovation (I hope.). I'll pursue it and see if it's good for my bone on bone knees.
Thank you i appreciate 😂

Hate when people don't simply get to the point! People looking for a cure for something don't need a long story, they just need to know how.
Sao Pooh just get to the bloody point and stop yacking on and on.
because it is a slow burn commercial advertisement
Ted talks are all about the build up. Tabloids & educational documentaries
yeah, just beating around the bush...idiotic!
The nature of humans is to want a magic pill. Perhaps this is a work in progress... like the cell phone. I hope some young ppl will pick up the ball.
Ive had to speed this up ... currently running at 1.5 x speed ... wow so much better
I have OA stage 1and suffered from pain an stiffness in d knees.

Hi, just saw this comment and I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd like to hear the rest of your story?
Hope you're well
Ηow are doing today ? have you found ways to manage your knee problems ?
#1- I thought I was going to hear about this "injection" but sadly...no, so NO WHITE SUGAR, NO WHITE BREAD, NO WHITE WHEAT folk...our American diet is destructive one.

Aggie Pride 💙💛💙💛💙💛. I currently am getting Synovisc shots. My knee is still inflamed, but, the pain is minimized. I would love cartilage regeneration.
Lets wait and see
Good work Juana! Hopefully your work can spread to other parts of the world.
I need this invention, Dr. Mendenhall! I'm on the brink ... I can hear my knees crunching and squeaking every time I do yoga.
Investigate PRP. Also or in addition, umbilical cord (donated) stem cells.
Tina Town- How are you today? what have you done for your bones...
There is a website to these products ☺️
Coming from someone who broke their kneecap, I love this woman
this is more like a commercial than a Ted talk
Outstanding informative but a long speech--she's over 40!! She could easily pass for 25!! Where does one go from here for our knees to be restored??

Biotechnology the future!
Ted needs to take this video down as the therapy that she's talking about is no longer available! And I agree with all the comments about get to the damn point
What! When was it ever available?!
Try to reach out to her people but no answer. So maybe she's not doing this anymore.
Brilliance!! Love your disruptive approach. Your technological perspectives are spot on in what I suspect would be transformative and welcomed by millions!! Well done my friend!!
Where can u be found tell us please
Is there Any research and clinical trials for this therapy.
Now can we just get insurances to pay for it. For some reason they would rather pay for a hospital bill, and surgery than this.
A great speech
God Bless you! Praying you make a difference and help many in pain... I volunteer to be a test dummy if you need one! Or where can I get this new treatment for my two bum knees.. Thank you! YOU ROCK! And I hope to find out more about this and the name of the medical product... Wishing you great success!
This video finally forced me to figure out how to speed up the playback speed. 1.5 x sounds normal, sadly this doesn't help improve it's value.
Thanks, your comment inspired me to figure out how to adjust the playback speed.
Its actually an advertisement
TED should refrain from this
I agree. This reminds me of a Theranos ad.
How else would you find out about this important breakthrough?. There is nothing else that works.
Absolutely agree!!!
Agreed
Gave up, could not increase the volume at all. According to comments below I did not miss much.
I had my knee replaced and my other knee needs 1 now too. Flashy promo but no actual evidence was presented. Sorry but you need evidence through clinical trials and medical peer reviews that this works before bringing ,possibly, false hope to people.
How is the replacement working for you
Heads up, this video just talks about the idea of having a solution
Maybe more people join and help out
Thanks. My attention span sucks!
Thanks for the heads up!
Pretty sure it’s a good seminar but thanks, we need more ppl that’ll tell what it’s about before we go searching 2 hrs just to find out it’s not there. Looking for straight to the point

Curious, what does this mean? Supplements?
Can it also work for an ankle cartilage?
Did you say hydra or hydro gels?
She's so amazing! This work is so relevant.

Rubbish
Where do I get it?
What about degenerative discs?
I used STC 30 Organic Plant Stem Cell Therapy for mine and today i am fine
how did that work out?
Nice talk thanx
She didn’t say anything
Is it an ad or try to help people. How many cases are successfull.
Why is this a ted talk? It's an advert
I kept expecting Dr. Richard Kimble to stroll in and expose her scam! Seriously, this had the same vibe.
Have not heard from anyone leading project again. No answers to questions. What is the point of putting this info out there?
The carnivore diet is definitely helping my knees to get better and better.

I did lots of exercise but still injured my knees
Great
Cortisone helps, but it hurts and takes a few days to start working. The first day was the worst! When they said it gets worse before it gets better, it was so true.
Boring.... If she had something significant to teach and offer hope of new alternatives, it was missed by the boredom.
She is not responsible for your short attention span.
She just needs more practice in her speech delivery.
Everyone so negative, why?? Chill
Snake Oil Seller at the BEST. Beating around the bush.
Go to the heart of the matter.
Why all this talk and in the end there is no name of the medicine
Get to the point for gods sake, just when you think she is heading somewhere she starts rambling on about the snake oil she is selling
You need to work on your deplorable attention span.
Curing pain! 👏
Why did you cut my comment? There was more to read. Kindly, restore it. Thank you.
audio terrible
Please I need her address clinic any one knows tell me please
Tedious, total rubbish, seemed like 2 hours rather than 15 minutes. Not science but quackery.
I wanted to like this but the presentation was so boring and poorly presented
She is not responsible for your attention span.
Real shark cartilage works
Too much talk. Get to the point.
This a TED talk. This is not someone recording from her basement. If you don't have the capability listen to a lengthy presentation, she cannot help you.
Sounds expensive
It was torture listening to this
So slow moving and talking I couldn’t watch till the end
Terrible public speaking
Maybe you should work on your attention span. This was a talk given at TED Talk. She is not recording from her basement. People who come to these talks come for the details she is providing. Work on yourself, instead of criticizing people who are doing something about a problem.
A total waste of time.
Calm down people there s no such invention yet, she is just hyping and using fancy words to make it sound scienctific,
SOOOO.....TEDIOUSLY......BORING!!!
Then she said nothing about anything!! It was all about me, me, me, me!! I did this..
I did that, in her lab!! But then she never said anything about what the cells and gells are, and what they do!!
I mean...she's also totally incorrect. The world of stem cells, are already being used, to generate new collages, and cartilage tissue, in knees, and other joints!!
Don’t we call this product Snake Oil for you, me, and us?
No solution
Hello..can u HEAR me? Nooo..What'd she say?
Mic check, mic check & levels! Audio, AUdio, AUDio, AUDIO!! Smh..
Prolo
she forget about stem cells
Nothing useful
buisness
Where is this therapy today?
Cortisone helps, but it hurts and takes a few days to start working. The first day was the worst! When they said it gets worse before it gets better, it was so true.
Bioxcellerator look it up
Cortisone deteriorates the joint faster. You'll need surgery sooner.
