Dr Tamara Pheiffer – Business Woman of the Year 2018/9

The leader in Africa for Medical Biohacking and life extension medicine

Dr Pheiffer’s story begins when she went to a lecture when she first qualified by a famous professor who told her that it takes between 30 and 50 years for new research to filter down into general clinical practice. With the exponential speed at which new discoveries are made in the medical field, this statement shook her to her core!

Dr Pheiffer is passionate about advanced human performance optimisation in every aspect including work, mental and physical performance. Her passion for empowering through knowledge has lead her to corporate events teaching companies and individuals how to take their minds, their work performance and physiology to the next level.

Dr. Pheiffer is the leader in Africa for Medical Biohacking and is pioneering the fields of life extension, youth enhancement and mental and physical optimization in the southern hemisphere and has been asked to sit on the international board for medical biohacking and speak at the international convention in Helsinki 2019.

She has lectured both nationally and internationally for billion dollar per annum companies, as well as locally for the American Academy of Anti Aging Medicine, and has been a keynote speaker at AMCSA for 3 years as well as heading up the scientific board for anti aging medicine.

She cohosts radio health and wellness slots and authors a newsletter to other physicians around the country on the subjects of advanced nutrition, biochemistry, nutrigenomics, as well as functional, integrative and anti-aging medicine, which she is considered a thought leader internationally

How many lives are being impacted by this slow trickle-down effect of information? How many people could be feeling stronger, fitter, more agile, more productive, happier, fulfilled, pain-free?

I made it my mission to make sure that Doctors and medical specials had no more excuses. That new research got to you… the patient without delay. This became my absolute focus.

From that day on I woke up at 3 am every morning to scour, medical journals, PhDs and peer-reviewed articles from around the world. I travelled to, met with and was mentored by the top names and companies in the industries of Biotechnology, Med Tech, Advanced Preventional Medicine, Advanced Medical Diagnostic and monitoring methods, Genetics and Nutrigenomics, Biogerontologists ( the professional word for the super science-based medical biohackers)  who are actually changing the way we see ageing in a profound way… ( more on this later)

I studied everything available from functional and integrated medicine to epigenetics, nutrigenomics and received my masters in South Africa’s version of an ND (Naturopathic Doctor), I am now studying my masters in Biogerontology and hope to do my PhD as soon as 2020.

With all of this knowledge, I am able to look at each patient individual biochemical and genetic map and hack into it to reduce the risk of future disease and make you feel 10 years younger. Human performance enhancement at every level (click here for more)

I soon realized that I only have so many hours in a day to help my patients. It occurred to me that If I have 8 hours a day and I teach 10000 doctors and medical specialists everything I know then we essentially help 80000 patients a day.

This blew my mind!!!

I put together seminars and courses on the vast amount of information that I had gathered over the years. To speed up my reach I partnered with the top two and help launched the top two doctors only medical nutraceutical ( super strong and targeted natural pharmaceuticals) into Africa where I was in the fortunate position of spending one-on-one intensive training with all of the international experts and speakers that the respective companies utilized for seminars and guidance. I was head hunted by South Africa’s largest listed Health and Wellness company to head up the American anti-ageing Academy (A4M) in Africa.

I have since become an influencer in the field and have lectured both nationally and internationally for billion dollar per annum companies as well as locally for the American Academy of anti-ageing Medicine and have been a keynote speaker at the Aesthetic Medical Congress of South Africa for 4 years as well as Chaired the scientific board in 2018.

My updated online courses for both the public and medical professionals with the most cutting edge information will be launching in a few months (click here for more)

I have and continue to aggressively pursue extensive ongoing education in the fields of Functional and Molecular Medicine and most recently been leading the Southern Hemisphere in Medical Biohacking and Medical Futurism, extending my speaking engagements beyond the medical field and into biotech and MedTech.

I am focused on alleviating the strain on the health care system by utilising and integrating disruptive technologies into personal as well as national healthcare systems.

I currently practice at anti-ageing Art in Houghton where I focus on biochemical and genetic individuality and strives to find the underlying root cause of the illness thus bringing the body back to a state of optimal health that is far greater than merely the absence of the disease process. I aim to find trends of illness and correct them long before they affect the function of various organ and hormonal systems.

Once healthy, I push further to enhance your mental and physical performance in all areas. (click here for more)

Nourish Africa is my passion project. I have been working with members of the Botswana government to plant drip irrigation vegetable gardens and build schools around the mines.

While the men work in the mines, the women will be able to earn their own income and be empowered by learning agriculture and creating a sustainable food source for the miners and their families.

Employment positions and training facilities will be made for horticulture, cooking as well as teaching from within the community to teach and care for children ages 0-12 and feed the families lunch daily.

Our aim to create an environment where the entire family can sit together for a healthy meal every day and create a safe environment for children to learn and play.

Not only does this increase nutrition for the entire family, reducing sick days and increasing productivity, but it assists in nurturing the family unit.

Quality nutrition and a stable home environment have been shown to increase a child’s IQ by up to 30 points. We are building our next generation of leaders in a loving home with delicious meals and quality family time.

We are currently in the funding stages and are hoping to launch this incredible initiative soon.
