Leslie Kenny: Hair Thinning & Gray Hair? How Spermidine Supports Hair, Skin & Longevity
What if the secret to longevity was hidden in your own cells? In this episode, I sit down with Leslie Kenny, founder of Oxford Healthspan, to explore spermidine—a fascinating compound that triggers autophagy, the body’s cellular renewal process. Leslie’s life took a dramatic turn in her 30s when she was diagnosed with Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis—told she had just five years to live and to give up on having children. Refusing to accept this prognosis, she transformed her health by eliminating inflammatory triggers and supporting her body’s natural healing. Now 59, she has the biological age of 21, is autoimmune disease-free, and naturally conceived at 43. We discuss: How spermidine activates autophagy (and why it’s crucial for aging well) The connections between spermidine, hormones, skin health, and hair regrowth Why spermidine levels decline with age and how to naturally replenish them The biggest misconceptions about longevity supplements Practical ways to incorporate spermidine into your routine If you’re curious about longevity, mitochondrial health, and anti-aging strategies that actually work, this episode is a must-listen!
