Spermidine: Is it Science's Solution to Slowing Down the Aging Process?

"Today, at age 58, Leslie has reversed her autoimmune conditions and is living proof that we can get better with age, so long as we take responsibility for our health and tap into our body's natural healing abilities."

Meet Leslie Kenny, the found of Oxford Healthspan. She is an Oxford based entrepreneur born in California and a graduate of Berkeley and Harvard Business School.

In her 30s, her life changed dramatically when she was diagnosed with an array of autoimmune conditions --- lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and hypothyroidism. Her doctors told her there was no cure and that they could only help if they managed her health situation with strong immunosuppressants.

This didn't sit right with her. Coming from a Taiwanese background, she was raised with the mentality that its best to work with your body's innate wisdom to heal itself.

Why would she ever consider suppressing her immune system rather than support her body's natural ability to heal?

On a quest to revive her own health, Leslie went back to school at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in NYC. Her passion for healthy optimization grew and her career took an interesting and unexpected turn when she moves to Oxford and began working with Oxford University scientists and doctors.

Episode Summary

On Dr. Robyn's next YOUNGER podcast episode, you will be able to listen to this powerful interview with Leslie Kenny, the founder of Oxford Healthspan. Learn how her company is now producing a high-quality spermidine called Primeadine(R).

Many health practitioners are just beginning to understand the benefits of spermidine. It is a natural-occurring and potent polyamine (a kind of protein) known for inducting autophagy, the body's cellular renewal and recycling process. It inhibits 9 of the 12 Hallmarks of Aging, the paths down which we age.

Oxford Healthspan has been backed by leading longevity experts to produce products formulated with the oversight of internationally recognized longevity scientists and doctors which include: Oxford University Emeritus Professor of Physiology, Denis Noble and Immunology Profession and Autophagy expert, Katja Simon, "Best in Medicine" Longevity Doctor and Author of 'The Kaufmann Anti-Aging Protocol', Dr. Sandy Kaufmann, Celebrity Anti-Aging Doctor and Psychoneuroimmunologist, Dr. Olivia Lesslar, and Head of the UK's first-of-its-kind Space Innovation Lab and Autophagy Researcher, Dr. Ghada Alsaleh, among others.

"2/3 of spermidine found in the human body is produced endogenously, or in the body, by the gut microbiota and various tissues. The final 1/3 is found exogenously, or externally, in the food that we eat."
