Embryonic stem cells.
Reason: embryonic stem cells are pluripotent and can differentiate into virtually any specialized cell type, so they can potentially treat the widest variety of diseases. Adult/tissue-specific stem cells (skin, intestine, bone marrow) are more limited in the types of cells they can become.
