Part of ageless sexuality is having energy and feeling attractive. Longevity and anti-aging supplements are a part of sexual bio-hacking that many of my fans rely on me to recommend to them.
I take your trust in me seriously and work with companies whose products are practical, based on quality ingredients, and have quality manufacturing.
Corporate integrity is essential to my overall recommendation of one product over another. The company must provide excellent customer service, respond to requests, and have excellent manufacturing practices.
That’s why, when one of my long-time followers wrote this about Primadine Spermadine supplements, I was pleased to get an immediate response from their CEO.
My newsletter reader wrote:
“Primeadine – JUNK and dangerous.1. Uses vitamin D2 – no one should take vitamin D2 – very toxic. Only take vitamin D3.
2. Made in Japan – no thanks, no FDA oversight, nothing.
3. Vitamins and minerals are so minuscule, ridiculous even to list them.
4. No non-GMO certifications, so they only say non-GMO but NO PROOF whatsoever.
So enjoy all the GMOs that destroy the immune component of the DNA chain and
cause all kinds of cancers
5. Vitamin B12 is most likely cyanocobalamin, made from cyanide, and when
cyanocobalamin is used, there is always cyanide in the supplement. Last time I
checked, cyanide is a severe poison.
6. Total waste of money.”
I sent this off to Primadine, and here is their CEO’s thoughtful response:
“Thank you for your email and your concern. I’ve liaised with Oxford Healthspan’s founder and CEO, Leslie Kenny, who created Primeadine GF.
1) Vitamin D2 vs vitamin D3. Both are fat-soluble forms of vitamin D, with vitamin D3 being the type we synthesize in our skin and find in fatty foods such as oily fish. Vitamin D2 is made in plants, such as mushrooms and chlorella, exposed to sunlight. Because plants are cheaper than fatty fish like salmon, the supplement industry often uses vitamin D2 in supplements. We have not added vitamin D2 to Primeadine GF – it is simply a naturally occurring vitamin in chlorella. If you are concerned about consuming vitamin D2, you must avoid eating plants.
2) Japanese food regulatory system vs. US food regulatory system—Japan has a more rigorous food regulatory system than the United States. For instance, all coffee imported into Japan is tested for mycotoxins. If the level is exceeded, the Japanese will turn it away at the port, and the owners will send that rejected shipment to the US, where the testing system is less rigorous.
For instance, the Japanese government mandates that all foods must be tested for aflatoxins or mycotoxins, with a limit of 10 μg/kg. The US has no such testing requirement nor limit on mycotoxins in foods.
In addition, Oxford Healthspan only works with manufacturers that are inspected and registered with both the United States FDA and local Japanese inspectorates. As you can see from this website, although Japan is 1/11 the size of China, it has almost the same number of food manufacturing facilities registered with and inspected by the US FDA. This is partly because their domestic Japanese food manufacturing standards are so high that they can meet (and usually exceed) the US FDA’s standard quality requirements.
3) ‘Vitamins and minerals are minuscule, ridiculous even to list them’ – Primeadine GF is a food-derived supplement made from a unique strain of Okinawan chlorella, Okinawan lime peel, and Okinawa turmeric. We only list these other vitamins and minerals not because they occur in significant percentages in this food supplement but because they are naturally occurring components. We are legally required to show what is in them. This is not a synthetic product where cheaper manufacturers would combine inexpensive synthetic chemical analogs of food. What we are doing is akin to listing all the vitamins and minerals in red pepper or tomato.
4) No GMO certifications. We are working on this. However, the farmers we work with who do not use pesticides also do not have USDA Organic certification. This is because Okinawan farmers only sell locally or in Japan. These certifications are costly in both time and money and have no meaning when locals know the products come from the Okinawan lime orchards and turmeric fields. We specially commission the cultivation of our chlorella in specially constructed ponds on land outdoors away from industrial areas so that the chlorella can absorb sunlight (this also allows our chlorella to contain vitamin D2 – chlorella that is cultivated indoors contain ergosterol, a precursor to vitamin D2, but does not contain D2 itself because sunlight is needed to make this conversion). I understand your concern about getting non-GMO certifications, and I am looking into how we might get these.
5) “Vitamin B12 is most likely cyanocobalamin, which is made from cyanide. When cyanocobalamin is used, there is always cyanide in the supplement. Last time I checked, cyanide is a serious poison.”
You assume we use the cheap, synthetic form of Vitamin B12, cyanocobalamin. We do not use cyanocobalamin. Primeadine GF only contains methylcobalamin, which naturally occurs in our unique chlorella strain. This is a food-derived form of vitamin B12.
6) “Total waste of money” is a personal judgment everyone is free to make.
If you have questions about Primeadine GF, please ask. We are a small, wholly female team and appreciate your interest in our company and products.
In gratitude and good health,
Leslie Kenny
Founder & CEO of Oxford Healthspan
UPDATE FROM SUZ:
I’m using the reversal of gray from my hair as a proxy for the overall benefits of this supplement. My roots are growing darker than they have for years. This tells me that internal anti-aging manifestations I might not see but can reliably assume are also occurring.
Just like when I did the stem cell IVs and injections to heal my torn knee ligaments and elbow tendons, and my eyesight improved… Many of the longevity efforts we make have a cascade of benefits.
REVERSING GRAY
I’m thrilled with the results and Oxford Health Span as a company of integrity.
Primadine From Oxford HealthSpan is the only company offering a combination of spermadine, spermine, putrescine, Okinawa turmeric, and nobiletin from Okinawan lime plus vitamins D, K, B5, B7, B9, and B12 and the antioxidant lutein, which inhibits nine of the 12 hallmarks of aging. Okinawa is one of the longevity Blue Zones.
I’ve been taking Primadine for the last couple of months, and my eyelashes, eyebrows, and hair are growing thicker with no gray! Spermidine has been shown to keep hair follicles in the growth phase longer.
Primadine also modulates some of the clock genes that regulate circadian rhythms. I’ve been getting 93-95 sleep scores on my Oura ring.
Primadine triggers autophagy, your body’s cellular clean-up process that slows with age.
Listen, if you’ve been hearing about rapamycin, senolytics, metformin, and NAD+, know that Primadine covers even MORE of the aging hallmarks than any of them.
Spermidine also inhibits gut dysbiosis, dysfunctional autophagy, and inflammation. All the sources are cited on their site. This

And yes, the component was discovered in semen (hence the “sperm” in spermadine) and is also found in breast milk. It’s the “Qi” the Taoist masters were preserving when they held their ejaculate for longevity!
The BEST part isn’t that you can cover 9 of the 12 hallmarks of aging with a single supplement…

I haven’t been this excited about a supplement in a long time!

Many supplement companies sprinkle a little of this and that in a capsule and call it a beneficial combination. Oxford Health Span’s Primadine does not do this. It offers straight-up food-derived beneficial ingredients for longevity.
If you’re looking for smart ways to extend your health span, Primadine is one of the best choices on the market, besides rapamycin, senolytics, metformin, and NAD+.
