Pharmaceutical drug contamination in our groundwater, rivers, lakes, estuaries and bays is a growing problem. Millions of us are flushing unused medications down the toilet and discharging them in our body waste—even though sewage treatment plants and septic systems were never designed to deal with such contaminants. Additional discharges by healthcare facilities exacerbate the problem. As a result, researchers have identified traces of pharmaceutical drugs in the drinking water supplies of some 40 million Americans.

GDF11 Molecular Structure - Molecular weight: 45,091 Daltons
By Steve Perry GDF11 Patient Zero and CEO of GDF11Rejuvenation.com RAADFest August 10, 2017

Why GDF11??Blood borne factors most likely contribute to aging and the proof is in parabiosis
An old mouse joined to the circulatory system of a young mouse results in the old mouse experiencing:
● Greater blood flow/vascularization
● Increased neurogenesis
● Improved sense of smell
● Muscle rejuvenation www.GDF11Rejuvenation.com
Why GDF11??And now for the hard part – assuming blood borne substances control aging, what are they? ● There are over 100,000 substances in the
blood! ● Isolating these anti aging substances is
the ultimate needle in a haystack exercise.
● Fortunately, we live in the age of rapid screening technologies, supercomputers, etc., allowing the Harvard Stem Cell Institute to isolate GDF11.
● GDF11 is most likely one of the most important blood borne substances that control aging, but by no means the only one. Otherwise we’d have “GDF11 outliers” that live hundreds of years.

Mechanisms of action of GDF11 ● Stems cells incur considerable DNA
damage in replication
● Eventually the DNA damage is so severe the stem cell becomes senescent
● GDF11 repairs the DNA damage and restores function to the stem cell. See graph on right
● Note that GDF11 has little effect on the young, though it may greatly slow aging
● Another MOA for GDF11 is thought to be moving progenitor cells into an active state
● This has been observed in the olfactory

Why I decided to become patient zero on GDF11• GDF11 mimics parabiosis and was shown to improve 3 key systems in
mice cardiac, neural and muscular which makes it very compelling.
• GDF11 is endogenous which inherently makes it safer than any man made substance.
• Even the most dangerous endogenous hormones, insulin and thyroid, are not lethal in nano quantities.
• The molecular structure of GDF11 is conserved across all vertebrate species, which shows how important it is to life and how early it showed up in evolution.
• Organs transplanted from older to younger people, which have higher GDF11 levels, thrive.
• Letting aging just take it course is almost as risky as trying GDF11.

Side Effects of EXCESS GDF11
• Dyspnea (shortness of breath)
• GI inflammation issues including GERD, mouth sores, diarrhea, etc.
• Skin inflammation e.g., old scars turning red again
• Insomnia
www.GDF11Rejuvenation.com
Proper dosing of GDF11• By looking at papers detailing circulating levels of GDF11, I
was able to impute this formula for starting dosage in ng:
((your weight in lbs.)/200) * (((Age – 18)/100)* 2094)/90
• Two parts to GDF11 dosing strategy:
1. Down regulation – Amy Wagers of the HSCI did say that GDF11 is a “reset thing” and this typically takes 4 to 6 weeks.
2. Maintenance dose – a tiny, typically .1 ng, dose of GDF11 once/twice per week

Down regulation dosing • Dosing is all over the map. It’s tied to age, weight, exercise and even
current or ex smoker. Unlikely we’ll find a universal dosing formula any time soon.
• To avoid side effects, we now look at daily trending of blood pressure, pulse, HRV and reaction time. If GDF11 dose is correct, blood pressure reaction time and pulse should go down. HRV should go up.
• If trending goes in the wrong direction, a week’s break is taken and then we restart at half the dose or less.
• Trending spreadsheets are a big improvement from the early days of GDF11 where patients were told to dose “just beneath the side effect level”. GDF11 dosing is far more nuanced than that…

Anecdotal feedback from GDF11 cohort• Increased stamina e.g., do not get winded climbing stairs
• Improved skin elasticity which is noticeable in the mirror
• Greater mental clarity, improved reaction time, more eloquent
• Gray hair reversal, including white hair now growing in black
• Improved sexual performance
• Better sleep, vivid dreams, circadian rhythms enforced
• Greatly increased appetite
• Improved sense of smell
• More order, cleanliness and anti hoarding behaviorww

Anecdotal feedback is nice, but every anti aging regimen needs to show consistent biomarker improvement.

Considerable GDF11 biomarker data has been collected in the last year. We have two types of biomarkers
1.The home biomarkers of blood pressure, HRV, pulse and reaction time
2.Doctor’s office biomarkers including Sphygmocor, skin elasticity, spirometry, etc
Since everyone procures their own GDF11, we do not have double blind, placebo controlled biomarker data yet

Home biomarker of reaction time
• 20 participants, average age 55.6, using HumanBenchmark.com on home computer
• Average reaction time for cohort down 12.45%
• Everyone’s reaction time improved
• No other endogenous substance can improve reaction time to this level
• This level of reaction time improvement suggests increased neurogenesis from GDF11

Home biomarker of diastolic blood pressure
• 18 participants
• Average diastolic blood pressure reduced by 5.7%
• One person’s diastolic blood pressure up 1.41%
• This suggests increased arterial elasticity due to GDF11 activating more endothelial stem cells

Home biomarker of resting pulse
• 15 participants
• Average pulse reduced by 6.3%
• Two participants showed no pulse improvement
• This suggests that GDF11 improves overall fitness and cardiac output

Home biomarker of heart rate variability RMSSD
• Higher heart rate variability is correlated with increased fitness, health, and youthfulness.
• 9 participants using a Polar heart rate monitor and Elite HRV software
• Average HRV RMSSD increased 17.68%
• One participant no improvement, one down 6.67%
• Results suggest the GDF11 helped reverse cardiac age

Let us take a moment to honor our GDF11 biomarker rock star
• Cardio Age 31 -> 20
• Nuero Age 30 -> 26
• Skin Age 50 -> 35
• Patient 6 is 47 and his Physioage is 23
• He is very diligent about daily biomarkers and
• Not afraid to take GDF11 breaks or cut dose
Augmentation pressure biomarker from a Sphygmocor machine
• AP combines the two major facets of arterial aging - stiffening of the large arteries and constriction of the resistance arteries
• 7 Participants
• AP down on average 60.27%
• One person’s AP up 30%
Skin Elasticity measured with a Cutometer
• 6 participants
• Skin elasticity down on average 17.4%
• That equates to an almost 11 year reduction in SE for a 60 year old
• One person, an ex smoker, SE went up 2%
Cutometer, +/- 3% accuracy
GDF11 controversies….• For every paper that says GDF11
declines with age, there is another paper that says GDF11 increases with age
• Researchers have had difficulty replicating HSCI results
WHY???
GDF11 controversies….WHY??• GDF11 is very hard to measure
• it’s found in only nano quantities (circulating levels about 2000 ng at age 40)
• tests are easily confused by myostatin which has levels 500x that of GDF11
• 90% of GDF11 is stored in platelets, not serum.
• GDF11 probably increases in serum, but not platelets.
• Dosing window of GDF11 is very tight as we have seen.
• Too much GDF11 is surely detrimental

Future directions…● I’ll be the first to admit my study is not a
randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.
● However, it does suggest GDF11’s efficacy in many key areas, including cardiac, neural, skin elasticity, etc.
● And we do now a reasonably safe GDF11 starting dosing formula as well as trending biomarker spreadsheets to prevent overdose and increase efficacy.
● For the non do it yourselfers in the audience, we will be opening a GDF11 clinic in the Bahamas in October. And we will do a placebo controlled study at the clinic.

And thanks to …Next steps in GDF11
● My courageous cohort for taking the GDF11 plunge, filling out dosing spreadsheets and taking the time and expense to do important biomarkers.
● The Harvard Stem Cell institute for discovering that GDF11 is a key peptide in the efficacy of parabiosis.
● Dr. Joe Raffaele of Raffaele Medical for his assistance and advice on key biomarkers.
