SONNY MAYO, former guitarist for bands like Ugly Kid Joe and Snot, talks to me about getting STEM CELL THERAPY in Panama for a genetic heart condition. After two heart attacks and unpleasant side-effects from heart medications, Sonny was introduced to stem cell therapy through listening to a Joe Rogan podcast. Raising money through GoFundMe, he was able too make the trip and receive treatment which is not yet legal in the United States. Sonny is a stellar example of taking back his health treatment from an often limited and close-minded medical system. This is an important message as heart disease is the #1 killer in our country!
