Stanford University study suggests PRP might help regenerate nerves.

“When I step out of the house in the morning, I will recognise that I'm getting some kind of feedback on what the time of year is and that sort of thing. It’s not always easy for me to say I smell something specific, but I’m always aware of that. “And the other day , I stepped out of my house, and I'm thinking to myself, Oh gosh, that smells good. And it was. That smells like winter -flowering jasmine.”.
