A Sophisticated SCAM

The Wellbeing International Foundation Ltd. makes several questionable claims that raise serious concerns. They advertise their so-called "cell-free therapy" as a treatment for a wide range of ailments, including sports injuries, neurodegenerative conditions like Parkinson's, and even overall health optimization. They claim this therapy can reverse disease progression and significantly improve quality of life. However, these claims lack credible scientific backing and are marketed at exorbitant prices, exceeding £40,000. Authorities in the UK, the US, and Germany are reportedly investigating their activities.

AREAS OF FALSE TREATMENTS

Stephen Ray discusses the process of making EV’s and states how a big dose of the created EV’s will look after anything else in the body that has started to deteriorate. He describes a situation whereby the treatment both fixes the problem and acts as preventative treatment against further damage.

FALSE CLAIMS

Stephen Ray claims that they could help with the neuropathy and retinopathy. He states that he has a background in neuroscience and – with Wellbeing – has produced a way of producing a patients own EV’s through their blood sample and injecting them back so that they then act as a general immune system stimulant, that will repair anything from brain trauma to osteoarthritis, bone and cartilage damage.

FALSE CLAIMS

Stephen Ray specifically states that he knows the treatment assists with Cancer. Wellbeing claim their Dendritic cell therapy is a viable alternative therapy in early-stage cancer - that is can be also effective in combination with conventional medicines and that it should be considered where all other approaches have failed. 

FALSE CLAIM.

THE LAW

Leaving the regulatory issues to one side, the Criminal Law is clearly being broken in the most flagrant way. Wellbeing is taking advantage of regulatory confusion and inertia. They have been able to keep under the radar so far, however the claims clearly show that they are committing acts of fraud. Indeed, it seems like the whole business is designed around the deception of the vulnerable and the sick.

The activities of this company are despicable and it is clearly in the public interest that they are speedily brought to book.
