Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is Spermidine?
Spermidine is a naturally occurring polyamine found in foods such as wheat germ, soybeans, mushrooms and aged cheeses. It plays a role in cell growth, maintenance and renewal, and has been widely studied for its relationship with autophagy — the process by which cells remove damaged components and recycle them.
Autophagy is essential for maintaining cellular health and resilience, particularly as we age. Because natural spermidine intake from diet can vary significantly, supplementation has become an area of growing interest within longevity and healthy ageing research.
Optima Max Spermidine is formulated to deliver a consistent, standardised dose, designed for individuals who value purity, transparency and science-led formulation — without unnecessary additives.

2. Who is it for?
Spermidine is suited to:
- Individuals looking to support cellular renewal and maintenance.
- Those interested in healthy ageing and longevity-focused nutrition.
- People seeking to support autophagy as part of a wellness routine.
- Individuals following science-led, preventative health approaches.
- Those complementing NAD+, fasting, or metabolic optimisation protocols.
3. Can I take it with other supplements?
Yes — Spermidine is commonly stacked within longevity protocols and pairs particularly well with other cellular renewal and NAD+ actives.
Pairs particularly well with:
Pairs particularly well with:
- Ca-AKG — supports the Krebs cycle, epigenome and mitochondrial efficiency, complementing Spermidine’s role in autophagy and cellular renewal.
- Enhanced Optima Max (NAD+) and Neuro Optimiser (NR) — together with Spermidine, these form a strong longevity stack: cellular renewal plus direct NAD+ support for cellular energy.
- GlyNAC — provides antioxidant and mitochondrial support that reinforces Spermidine’s cellular health benefits.
- Omega-3 PRO — foundational anti-inflammatory and cardiovascular support that underpins any longevity routine.
4. How does it combine with NAD+?
Spermidine and NAD+ support different but complementary cellular pathways — spermidine supports autophagy and cellular renewal, while NAD+ supports cellular energy and metabolic function.
For a full inside-out approach to cellular renewal, Spermidine pairs beautifully with our topical Active NAD+ Face Serum and Active NAD+ Essential Cream — addressing cellular health from within while supporting skin health at the surface.

5. When will I see results?
Spermidine’s benefits are associated with long-term cellular processes rather than immediate effects. Consistent daily use is recommended.
