Dr. Kaufmann began her academic career in the field of cellular biology, earning a Master’s Degree from the University of Connecticut in Tropical Ecology and Plant Physiology. Turning to medicine, she received her medical degree at the University of Maryland and completed a residency and fellowship at Johns Hopkins in the field of pediatric anesthesiology. For the last seven years she has been the Chief of Pediatric Anesthesia at the Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, a nationally recognized center of excellence.
Her avid interest in the science of anti-aging begun many years ago as an intense hobby. Utilize- ing her knowledge in cell biology, human pharmacology, and physiology, this hobby has now become the main focus. The Kaufmann Protocol represents years of non-clinical research leading to the first-ever, comprehensive theory of aging, complete with an explanation of why we age and the tools to decelerate the process.
Dr. Kaufmann has lectured at Raad Fest, People Unlimited, The Church of Perpetual Life and can be heard on talk radio as well as innumerable podcasts such as Ben Greenfield and Bulletproof podcasts.

Sandra shares a little bit about herself admitting she doesn't have the best diet but really kicks butt exercising. She started off as a cell biologist but dove into antiaging and found she can decelerate cellular aging. Sandra shares molecular ways to cheat the system. She loves rock climbing

NICOTINAMIDE: General Information Nicotinamide is made naturally in the body, beginning with the amino acid tryptophan. Eight steps later, it is converted into our usable substance, NAD or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. There is also a salvage pathway which is more efficient. It does four things in the body. It helps make energy, What does NAD do? It is crucial for cellular activity. Specifically, it does the following:
1) In mitochondria, it is an essential part of the electron transport chain which is necessary to produce cellular energy.
2) It is necessary for DNA repair. The molecule itself gets disassembled, and its pieces are used as replacement parts in the actual DNA.
3) It provides communication between the nucleus and mitochondria
4) It acts as a necessary Co-factor for the sirtuin family
12:01 We have never eaten well. There has never been a golden age of eating. So supplementing can give us some edge and be a great thing.
Let’s talk Metformin. (WWW.QUALYTUDE.COM to get Metformin) Metformin does so many amazing things
General Information on Metformin:
Earlier use of the base plant, Galega officinalis or the French Lilac, was documented in Medieval Europe as an herbal remedy for diabet
