Exposing advertising. Part 1. Phyto-stem cells - the catch of anti-aging creams

People who are trying to take care of themselves in one way or another are a favorite target of marketers. I think many have already heard about hyaluronic acid, phytostem cells and vitamin moisturizers.





- What's wrong with that? - you ask.





- It's not like that, - I will answer.





For a start, in science there is no concept of "phytostem cells". There is the concept of "stem cells" for animal organisms, and "cambial" or "meristemal cells" for plants.
