Platelet rich plasma for UKs top bodybuilder: Samodua Samson
About this video
Dr. Adeel Khan, a regenerative-medicine physician, explains how platelet-rich plasma (PRP) works for tissue repair and describes his approach to treating Samson Dauda, an IFBB pro bodybuilder. Dr. Khan argues that age matters in stem-cell potency—cells from newborns produce more growth factors than adult cells—and describes using umbilical cord stem cells and natural killer (NK) cells alongside PRP to reduce systemic inflammation and accelerate healing. He contrasts this combined approach with PRP-only treatments, noting slower results when stem cells are not included.
