SabCo Productions is proud to release its first line of apparel created to draw attention to the promise of embryonic stem cell research. The ultimate goal is to get as many people as possible aware of the current resrictions in the U.S. and then take action by speaking out to help clarify the misconceptions.
Putting a unique spin on the issue, each shirt is designed to make a bold statement pertaining to a specific disease or disability that could benefit from the advancement of stem cell research. Although some of the messages are light-hearted and fun, the underlying message is very serious.
Hopefully what you see will trigger a desire to get involved, buy a shirt or simply get educated on the matter!
A percentage of profits goes to the Sabrina Cohen Foundation for Stem Cell Research.

Unlock
the Cells
Support SCR
On August 9, 2001 Embryonic Stem
Cell Research was placed under
arrest! Research was locked up,
seized and deprived it’s
full potential of discovering
cures for the most devastating
diseases known to mankind.
The Stem Cell Research Enhancement
Act of 2005 was created
to loosen those restrictions
to enable U.S. scientists access to new stem cell
lines and more federal funding,
yet President Bush vetoed the bill in 2006. The majority of Americans believe this science should move forward. No one is giving up... Your voice can contribute to change.

Forget
Alzheimer’s
FIGHT ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE
Not knowing the name of someone
you love or recognizing the face
of one‘s child is no joke.
It’s deadly. 1 in 10 Americans
has a family member with Alzheimer’s
disease, a devastating disorder
of the brain that impairs memory,
thinking and behavior. The impact
of Alzheimer’s on the U.S.
makes the disease one of our nation’s
greatest medical, social and economic
challenges, with annual costs
of care at $100 billion. What’s
even more challenging however
is breaking down the doors that
restrict scientists the full advantage
of exploring embryonic stem cell
research – a research that
could potentially cure neurological
disorders like Alzheimer’s
one day.

My
boobs are killer
FIGHT BREAST CANCER
No doubt, breasts enhance a woman’s
sex appeal. But they also kill.
Every two minutes a woman in the
United States is diagnosed with
breast cancer. In 2005, approximately
270,000 new cases of both invasive
and non-invasive breast cancer
will be diagnosed. Of that, 40,000
women are expected to die. Unfortunately,
breast cancer is just one of the
many deadly forms of cancer lurking
around. Fortunately, one day Embryonic
Stem Cell Research may be able
to help. But in order to get there,
the restrictions on the research
need to loosen up.

I’m
Sick of Pricks
FIGHT DIABETES
Being stuck with a needle is no
fun. Imagine when you have to do
it everyday. 18.2 million Americans
have Diabetes, thousands of which
are dependent on shots of insulin
into their arm, leg or abdomen on
a daily basis in order to survive.
Diabetes is the single most prevalent
chronic illness among children,
while the leading cause of kidney
disease, adult-onset blindness and
lower limb amputations. Diabetics
are twice as likely to get heart
disease or a stroke. Unfortunately,
the number of people being diagnosed
with the disease is growing at a
shocking rate of 8 percent each
year.
But there is a light at the end
of the tunnel… as long as
we get the promise of Embryonic
Stem Cell Research moving forward.

Wanna
check out my ass?
FIGHT PARALYSIS 
Everyone likes to check out the
goods but scratch that idea if you’re
talking to someone sitting in a
wheelchair. Approximately 250,000
Americans have spinal cord injuries,
400,000 have Multiple Sclerosis
and 30,000 are faced with the fatal
neuromuscular disease named after
sports legend Lou Gehrig – All of which are disorders where
paralysis robs the individual total
control over their own body and
walking becomes something you observe
from a wheelchair.
Embryonic Stem Cell Research
just might hold the key to reversing
these neurological disorders.
But first we need to stand up
as a united force and do something about it.

TURN
ME ON!
FIGHT PARKINSON'S DISEASE
Attraction is a powerful thing.
But what we’re talking about
here is bigger and badder. Over
1.5 million Americans are affected
by Parkinson’s disease, a
progressive neurological disorder
resulting from a lack of dopamine
in the brain. Symptoms include tremors,
muscle stiffness, difficulty with
balance, walking and speaking and
diminished facial expressions. There
is medication to somewhat control
the disease but the effects take
an individual on a roller coaster
ride through a temporary "on
state" where symptoms are well
controlled, to an unexpected "off
state" where symptoms immediately
reappear.
It’s time to leave the
switch “on” at all
times. Embryonic Stem Cell Research
has the potential to do that.
But not without your help.

WHAT ABOUT NO-HAIR DAYS?
FIGHT CANCER
Most people throw on a cap when they’re
having a bad hair day. For others, they
feel unattractive and embarrassed after
losing hair from chemotherapy. An estimated
1.4 million new cancer cases in the U.S.
is projected yearly. Of that, many will be obligated
to undergo chemotherapy, a process that
uses anti-cancer drugs to destroy cancer
cells, in order to survive. The chemotherapy
drugs also damage healthy cells, including
the cells in the hair follicles, which
make a person’s hair fall out while
undergoing treatment.
The only good news is, somewhere down the
road this type of treatment may not be neccessary. At least Embryonic Stem Cell
Research is working towards that goal.

broken hearts suck! TOTAL HEARTBREAKER
FIGHT HEART DISEASE FIGHT HEART DISEASE
 
Heart Disease is America's # 1 killer. Now that truly sucks.
Having a Stroke trails closely behind. Some heart attacks are
sudden and intense, with warning signs that include chest discomfort,
shortness of breath, nausea or lightheadedness. Almost 1 million
Americans die of Heart Disease a year, equaling 42% of all deaths.
And Heart Disease doesn't just kill the elderly – it’s the leading
cause of death for ALL Americans age 35 and older.
Stem cell therapies have already been proven to help but restrictions
on research are impeding advances in the United States.
