Greg Macpherson Explains the Radical Approach to Cellular Health – Hobamine

Greg Macpherson, biotechnologist and founder of SRW Laboratories sits down with Naturally Informed to discuss cellular health, oxidative stress, and how Hobamine can play a role in this.

For more than 30 years Greg Macpherson has worked in the health arena, with a focus over the last decade in the biotechnology sector.  He has been specifically studying the aging process at a cellular level.  This work led him to writing the book Harnessing the Nine Hallmarks of Aging and then founding the company SRW Laboratories which focuses on formulating natural products to slow the onset of aging and disease.

The Importance of Cellular Health

Cell are the building blocks of the body.  They provide your body’s structure and carry out specialized functions important to your health and wellbeing. 


Aging begins within your cells, however it’s only recently that scientists have been able to identify what can cause aging in the cells.

Oxidative stress has been shown to be one of the major causes of cellular damage in all human beings.  But luckily a new ingredient has proven to bring hope to blunting damage from oxidative stress.

Ingredient at the Forefront of Cellular Health

“Hobamine (2-HOBA) represents a really significant advance in the approach to reducing the impact of oxidative stress because it acts as a circuit breaker between the downstream of fits of oxidative stress and something called an isolevuglandins which is a highly reactive molecule.  It’s actually the real reason that oxidative stress is so bad for us and Hobamine does this without blurring what they call healthy reactive oxygens signaling.”

The Evolution of Epigenetics

Epigenetics research surrounding DNA repair has opened the door to new advancements in supplements that could help slow the aging process.

Recent research in Epigenetics has started to look at the aging process from a cellular level, opening new doors at how we may look at preventive health moving forward.

What is Epigenetics?


The dictionary defines epigenetics as ‘the study of changes in organisms caused by modification of gene expression rather than alteration of the genetic code itself’.  This means that our behaviors and environment can cause changes that affect the way our genes work.

Research in this developing field allows scientists to look inside cells and measure the effectiveness of lifestyle and various interventions they are making.  In return, this allows us to figure out we can try to prevent or reverse cellular aging. 

“Up until now, we’ve aged fairly well with basic lifestyle management and a little luck.  Today, we have the precise tools to take it to another level- the cellular level,” said Greg Macpherson, a biotechnologist, pharmacist, and founder of SRW Laboratories.

Protect Your Cells with Hobamine

Hobamine (2-HOBA) is a breakthrough ingredient gaining interest in the market.  This ingredient is found naturally in Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat and has shown to protect DNA against free radical damage.  It acts as a scavenger for reactive carbonyl species that cause stress in our cells.
