Dr. Sandra Kaufman on the Cellular Drivers of Aging and Practical Longevity Basics
Host Mike Roth interviews Dr. Sandra Kaufman, a longevity medicine leader with backgrounds in cell biology and anesthesiology, about why humans age and how to slow the process. Kaufman explains aging as progressive cellular dysfunction with multiple causes she groups into “seven tenets of aging,” arguing there is no single magic bullet and that mindset, mobility, and addressing pain matter. She recommends starting with basics—fixing underlying medical issues, improving diet and exercise—then layering in tools like supplements, medications, and therapies (saunas, cold, light). She says aging accelerates starting around ages 30–35 as key hormones and pathways decline, but longevity efforts can still improve quality of life. Kaufman highlights NAD precursors (NMN/NR) for energy and DNA repair support, discusses cancer risk as DNA repair failure, and shares her “PANACEA” supplement stack: pterostilbene, astaxanthin, NAD precursor, bioavailable curcumin, and carnosine.
