Welcome to the latest episode in our series of highly vetted companies I like to share with my Everyday Wellness community. Today, I'm delighted to connect with Leslie Kenny, Founder and CEO of Oxford Healthspan. After being diagnosed with multiple autoimmune conditions and being told she was unlikely to have any biological children, Leslie put her autoimmune conditions into remission through nutrition and lifestyle changes and later went on to conceive naturally at 43. Her personal experience led her into a research collaboration with Oxford immunologist Professor Katya Simon, where she was introduced to spermidine, a naturally occurring polyamine studied for its role in autophagy—our cells' internal recycling and cleanup process. She later founded Oxford Healthspan to bring a whole-food Japan-sourced spermidine supplement, Primadine, to market. She also co-founded the non-profit Oxford Longevity Project alongside Oxford scientists to educate the public more broadly on healthspan research. In our conversation, we discuss self-advocacy, autoimmunity, infertility, and empowerment, exploring how modern life affects perimenopause and menopause, as well as spermidine research and its mechanisms of action. We discuss intermittent fasting, autophagy, mitophagy, gut health, food-based sources of spermidine, how our spermidine levels decrease with age, and why supplementation is truly beneficial. Leslie also shares feedback on how Primadine impacts memory, cognition, hair, skin, and nails; how clock genes and circadian biology work; and biological versus chronological age. Stay tuned for a truly fascinating conversation with Leslie Kenny- one you'll most likely want to revisit more than once. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: The changes Leslie implemented after being diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and lupus How patients need to ask questions and collaborate with their clinicians rather than simply following instructions Leslie describes how she worked with doctors to monitor her symptoms and address problems early during the perimenopause-to-menopause transition. How Leslie came to learn about spermidine and its connection to autophagy and mitophagy How spermidine can support healthy aging How ultra-processed foods can affect the gut, and foods that contain natural sources of spermidine The types of improvements customers taking Primadine have reported Leslie explains the distinction between biological and chronological age Why intermittent fasting, although beneficial, may not work the same way for all women Bio: Leslie Kenny is an Oxford-based longevity entrepreneur, TEDx Oxford speaker, and healthspan advocate. She is the founder of Oxford Healthspan, creator of Primeadine®, co-founder of the Oxford Longevity Project, and Global Executive Ambassador for the Japan Autophagy Consortium, whose senior adviser is Yoshinori Ohsumi, recipient of the 2016 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his pioneering research on autophagy. She is a frequent international speaker and moderator on longevity, biological aging, and the future of preventive medicine, with a particular focus on translating emerging research into practical, evidence-based strategies for extending healthspan. Leslie has been an early advocate for the role of autophagy, cellular renewal, and nutrition in healthy aging, helping to pioneer broader awareness of spermidine and its relevance to longevity pathways.

Have you been struggling with gut issues for years, or suddenly have bloating, weird pain or digestive problems now that menopause is here? Are you one of those who cut out gluten hoping for relief, only to feel just as lousy (or worse)? We cover: Why your gut goes a little haywire in menopause, and why it has nothing to do with "just getting older" The gluten truth that made me rethink everything I put in my mouth (most of us get this completely backwards) How simply believing a food will hurt you can physically make it hurt you, and what that means for your power to change it A free international study you can join from your couch if you're dealing with IBS The one simple shift that beats probiotics and cutting out foods for a calmer gut Associate Professor Jessica Biesiekierski is Head of Human Nutrition at the University of Melbourne and one of Australia's leading researchers in gut health, diet, and gut–brain interaction. Jess leads large international randomised controlled trials investigating how dietary and psychological interventions can improve gut conditions like Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Her work has been published in top journals including The Lancet, Gastroenterology, and The American Journal of Gastroenterology. She is internationally recognised for her research on non-coeliac gluten sensitivity, the low FODMAP diet, and how gut–brain mechanisms shape food-related symptoms. She currently leads the world-first head-to-head study comparing the low FODMAP diet with exposure-based cognitive behavioural therapy in people with IBS, recruiting across Australia and the USA. Clinical trial — the Exclude or Expose Study in IBS — which is actively recruiting adults with IBS in both Australia and the USA. The trial compares two leading, evidence-based IBS treatments head-to-head for the first time: the low FODMAP diet (an exclusion-based dietary approach) versus exposure-based cognitive behavioural therapy (which works by helping the brain respond differently to gut symptoms and feared foods). Both are delivered entirely online over 12 weeks, free of charge, with one-on-one support from a dietitian or psychologist throughout. Many women experiencing gut symptoms around menopause may qualify.

Have you ever asked your doctor to test your hormones, and were told there's no point because you're in perimenopause? Or maybe you started an estrogen patch, felt amazing for a week, and then suddenly felt worse and had no idea why?

What Makes Life Worth Extending? What does it really mean to live longer—and live better? In this episode of the Living to 100 Club, Dr. Joe Casciani speaks with Leslie Kenny, Member of the Board of Directors, Oxford Longevity Project, about the psychological, biological, and lifestyle factors shaping longevity around the world. Leslie shares surprising findings from a global longevity study involving 25 countries, including striking attitudes toward aging among younger generations. Together, Joe and Leslie explore how purpose, mindset, social connection, and healthy lifestyle habits can influence not only lifespan, but quality of life along the way. The conversation also examines ageism, reinvention later in life, anti-inflammatory approaches to health, and the idea that aging can become a new chapter filled with growth, curiosity, and renewed meaning. Leslie also discusses her own personal health journey and why she believes individuals should remain hopeful, proactive, and engaged in shaping their future health and well-being. Topics Included The Oxford Longevity Project and global attitudes toward aging Why purpose and meaning matter throughout life The impact of mindset on longevity and resilience Ageism and outdated stereotypes about growing older Reinvention and “new chapters” later in life Lifestyle factors linked to healthy aging Anti-inflammatory approaches to wellness Practical ways to stay engaged, optimistic, and connected as we age This thoughtful discussion offers encouragement and practical insights for anyone interested in aging with greater intention, vitality, and purpose. Mini Bio Leslie Kenny is an autoimmune disease survivor, certified health coach, and founder of Oxford Healthspan, an Oxford, England based nutraceutical company bringing healthspan promoting molecules to market. She previously worked as a fundraiser for Oxford University regenerative medicine spinouts.

Reversing your biological age isn't about chasing youth—it's about giving your body the right conditions to become stronger, healthier, and more resilient at every age. In this episode, Debra sits down with longevity expert Leslie Kenny to uncover how she transformed a devastating autoimmune diagnosis into a mission to optimize health and extend healthspan. You'll discover why inflammation, muscle, stress, sleep, and immune health are deeply connected—and how small, consistent changes can create extraordinary results over time. If you've ever wondered whether it's too late to improve your energy, strength, or future health, this conversation will challenge what you thought was possible. Reverse your biological age by learning practical strategies that help your body work for you, not against you. My Guest: Leslie Kenny, an Oxford-based longevity expert and graduate of UC Berkeley, personally reversed diagnoses of lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and infertility, later giving birth naturally at the age of 43. Now 60, with a biological age of just 21, her remarkable recovery inspired her to dedicate her life to translating cutting-edge longevity science into accessible, evidence-based solutions for the public. Leslie went on to co-found the Oxford Longevity Project, a nonprofit devoted to educating and empowering individuals to age smarter through science-backed strategies. She also founded Oxford Healthspan, the company behind Primeadine®, a premium, food-derived spermidine supplement sustainably sourced from the longevity islands of Japan, where exceptional numbers of centenarians thrive. Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:04:59] You were told at 39 that you had three autoimmune diseases and only a few good years left. Can you take us back to that moment, and what was going through your mind? [00:22:46] Many women in midlife are diagnosed with Hashimoto's without realizing it's an autoimmune condition. How do lifestyle factors contribute, and what should women know? [00:27:17] What impact do lifestyle habits have on inflammation, autoimmune disease, and healthy aging? [00:32:38] What role does spermidine play in healthy aging, and why has it become such an important area of longevity research? [00:36:45] Can you get enough spermidine from food alone, or should women consider supplementation? [00:41:01] Your biological age is dramatically younger than your chronological age. What does that actually mean in terms of how you feel day to day? [00:43:15] Looking back, what do you wish more women understood earlier about protecting their health and aging well? If this episode made you flip your workout routine — share it!

Did you know after menopause, many women lose around 1% to 2% of bone density per year for several years, and some lose more? And it accelerates during the menopause transition, with the fastest loss typically beginning around a year before that final menstrual period. Most women don't find out until they already have an osteopenia or osteoporosis diagnosis.. Or maybe you've been told your bones are just "a little low" but nobody actually explained what to do about it? We cover: Why walking and calcium supplements alone are not enough, and what actually moves the needle on bone density The difference between bone density and bone quality, and why your DEXA scan is only telling part of the story The specific types of exercise that stimulate bone formation at the hip and spine, and which popular ones don't do what you think How menopausal hormone therapy fits into the bone health picture, and can you improve bone health without HRT? What women with osteoporosis, joint pain, or a hip replacement can still safely do to build stronger bones Jocelyn Wittstein is an Associate Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at Duke University Medical School. Dr. Wittstein's research includes disorders of the shoulder, knee, and elbow, rotator cuff repair outcomes, biceps tendon disorders, patellofemoral instability, ACL injury including mechanism of injury and post traumatic arthritis, and meniscus healing. She also collaborates extensively with Duke Women's Health on the study of the intersection of musculoskeletal health and menopause including adhesive capsulitis, arthritis, and bone health. She currently serves as the medical director for the COORDS program (Clinical Outcome in Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation System) at Duke orthopaedics.

We cover: What are the most common, and least discussed, desire blockers in midlife The surprising role "ruthlessness" plays in sexual pleasure and why intimacy can make desire harder What sexual fantasies are really doing psychologically, and why they often intensify with age How long-term relationships and caretaking instincts quietly suppress arousal Practical ways midlife women can reconnect with desire without performance pressure Dr. Michael Bader is a psychologist and psychoanalyst with over four decades of clinical experience, known for his pioneering work on the psychology of desire, intimacy, and sexual fulfillment. He is the author of the influential book Arousal: The Secret Logic of Sexual Fantasies, where he unpacks the hidden emotional and psychological meanings behind sexual fantasy and why it plays such a powerful role in human arousal. Dr. Bader blends clinical depth with a refreshingly accessible style, helping people understand how unconscious fears, early experiences, and emotional dynamics shape their erotic lives. His work challenges shame, reduces stigma, and offers a compassionate, science-informed framework for sexual well-being. Beyond his clinical practice, Dr. Bader has served as a consultant, teacher, and writer on topics ranging from sexuality to social psychology, and he's widely respected for bridging the gap between psychological theory and everyday struggles around intimacy, pleasure, and connection.
