Chris Hemsworth has shared a rare health update after revealing his career could be “killing him” earlier this year.
The Thor star, 41, is working with Dr. Adeel Khan, a world leader in regenerative medicine and stem cell therapy.
“I really enjoyed meeting Dr. Khan,” Chris wrote on Instagram on Saturday.
“Their work with MUSE cells, an incredible type of regenerative stem cell, is unique.”
Chris looked the picture of health as he posed for a photo with the world-renowned Canadian doctor, wearing a pair of black shorts and a loose-fitting T-shirt outside one of his Eterna clinics.
Dr. Kahn, who posed for a photo on Chris’s arm, has treated royal families, celebrities including Zac Efron and Justin Baldoni and elite athletes with his cutting-edge stem cell therapy.
Muse cells, found in the bone marrow and connective tissue of almost all organs, have an enormous capacity to function as restorative cells for a wide range of tissues and organs.
They are able to recognize damaged tissue and selectively accumulate at the site of damage through intravenous injection.

“The fact that Dr. Khan collaborated directly with Professor Mari Dezawa, who pioneered these cells, made me feel confident that I was in the hands of someone at the forefront of regenerative medicine,” Chris continued in his caption. photo.
In May, it was reported that the beloved actor was filming the series Limitless in 2022 when he discovered it is “eight to 10 times” more likely to develop Alzheimer’s than the general population.
Shortly after the news broke, Chris took a step back from Hollywood and reports began to circulate that the Hollywood star was either retiring or had already developed the disease.
“The imagined scenario is always worse than reality,” the Australian actor recently told Body + Soul magazine while returning to work in Los Angeles filming the thriller Crime 101 with Mark Ruffalo.
Chris spent a year recovering from a back injury he suffered while filming Thor: Love and Thunder and coming to terms with the genetic predisposition he was diagnosed with.
At 41, the Thor star said he has never been more optimistic about his health, or about returning to the set in Los Angeles, where he moved for a filming stint in early October.
The upcoming film is based on the novella by Don Winslow, which centers on a detective named Lou Lubesnick who investigates jewelry heists on the Pacific Coast.
Although he is back at work, Chris’ health scare has led him to seek out the best health and wellness professionals in the world to stay in shape.

“Our stem cells are designed with the goal of restoring normal function to damaged tissues and organs by repairing or replacing them with new, fully functional cells and tissues,” reads a description on Dr. Kahn’s website.
Their Eterna clinics, one of which Chris posed outside, are based in Mexico, Canada, Lithuania and Dubai.
“I was going from job to job and getting stressed out,” Chris said about his life before taking a break from work.
‘I was always putting in an extra 20 per cent of my time. Sometimes it ended up being excessive and other times it had diminishing returns.’
He realized that pushing himself to his physical and mental limits would force something to give, and that it was better for someone to be a movie than his continued well-being.
Chris Hemsworth took a planned break from filmmaking to slow down and spend time with his wife Elsa Pataky and their three children. Pictured at the Transformers One premiere in Sydney.
“There may be a project I would love, but doing it means less time at home,” he said.
‘Alternatively, I can see that I’ve been home enough to feel like I’m not going to go to work and feel guilty about having to be home. And that is the daily conversation we all have in our lives, whether you are in this business or another.”
So he planned to spend some time with his wife Elsa Pataky and their three children at their sprawling Byron Bay compound: surfing, riding dirt bikes and horseback riding.
“I used to have the mentality that if I didn’t come out of the gym crawling, I hadn’t worked hard enough, which is not necessary,” Chris said.
“I’m also listening to my body more, being patient with the process and not just tearing myself apart every session.”
Despite having a net worth of more than A$220 million, Chris admitted he still felt unresolved “stress” stemming from his troubled upbringing acting to pay off his parents’ debt.
After taking blood tests for the program, he is one of only two to three percent of people with two copies of the APOE4 gene.
Chris lives in a $30 million mansion with his wife Elsa and daughter India Rose, 12, and twin sons Sasha and Tristan, 10.
