Marjorie Taylor Greene leaves US for unapproved stem cell aging treatment: TMZ
Marjorie Taylor Greene, the former Georgia congresswoman who built a career railing against government overreach, traveled to Mexico this week to receive a stem cell treatment that the FDA has not approved — and says she thinks Washington should make it legal.
Greene told TMZ that she and her fiancé, right-wing media personality Brian Glenn, underwent stem cell IV treatments Saturday at Dream Body Clinic in Puerto Vallarta. The FDA has not approved most stem cell therapies because they haven't completed the process required to establish that they're safe and effective — which is why the couple crossed the border to get them.
Greene says she's always been proactive about her health, tracing it back to her days owning a CrossFit gym, and believes stem cell therapy is an effective anti-aging tool. She also told TMZ she doesn't carry health insurance, preferring to spend that money on preventative treatments she believes in.
She wants the federal government to get out of the way. Greene told TMZ she believes stem cell therapy should be federally legalized in the U.S. — a position that puts her in the unusual spot of demanding the government deregulate a treatment that many Republicans oppose.
The Mexico trip followed a vacation in Costa Rica with Rep. Thomas Massie, who told TMZ last week that he sees Greene as an important voice in the future of the Republican Party and teased a possible push for GOP leadership, TMZ reported.
