AnteAge, Founded by a Physician Whose Medical License Was Revoked and is Now Owned by Private Equity, Invents Fake Technology

John Sanderson, whose medical license was revoked for sexual misconduct and repeated negligence, has sold his company, AnteAge, to a private equity company. Now that the PE company has taken over, their marketing people have invented a new word, “Biosome.” for what is called by scientists, a “liposome.”

How do we know the Private Equity guys who own AnteAge are using fake technology? Look at the staement from their website: “Currently the AnteAGE MD bottles do not mention the new Biosome ingredient. As part of our commitment to sustainability, we have chosen to utilize our existing inner packaging rather than generating waste unnecessarily. Please rest assured that your product does in fact have Biosomes included. Please reference the ingredient listing here. Reach out with questions or refer to anteage.com.”

Here’s the statment from their web:

How Do We Know They’re Faking It

If there were actually something new in the bottle, they would have to, by law, relable the product. In other words, because they have only changed their marketing hype, and not the product’s technology, they don’t need to make any changes to the bottle labeling – specifically the bottle’s listing of ingredients. The label and the ingredients remain the same and the only thing changing is what they call the product. There’s no validation in peer-reviewed literature or patent filings confirming a unique mechanism under the name “Biosome.” Rather, it’s just marketing hype, or as some would call it, BS.

So what’s in the bottle? Liposomes. Look at the ingredients on the bottles with the new, fake technology. The list includes “Phosphatidylcholine.” Guess what are made with Phosphatidylcholine. Answer – liposomes! So now AnteAge is calling liposome, you guessed it, Biosomes. This is Private Equity at work. Say anything, do anything, for profit.

Here’s the bottle saying “Biosomes”:

And here’s the bottle’s ingredient list for the “Serum”:

Serum Ingredients:
Water (Aqua), Human Bone Marrow Stem Cell Conditioned Media, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Niacinamide, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Polyacrylate-13, Glycerin, Hydrolyzed Myrtus Communis Leaf Extract, Butylene Glycol,

Bottome line. Private equity is ruining many things and now they’re lying to the public about skin care ingredients.

If you’d like to read about the science of exosomes and liposomes, you can read my 30 page academic book chapter, peer-reviewed, that I published in 2016 with Elsevier, called “Exosomes: smart nanospheres for drug delivery naturally produced by stem cells.“

BareFacedTruth.com is a Blog from a Physician Who Lost His Medical License

Having committed malpractice and losing his medical license, John Sanderson started a company called AnteAge, selling potentially dangerous products to unsuspecting victims. Negligence, repeated negligence, and sexual misconduct with his patients was his contribution to medicine. Now he wants to sell you products for your skin. He also has someone write a blog for him that not only demonstrates his total incompetence yet again, but he projects on others what he does daily – namely lie and commit unethical acts.

Mr. Sanderson is a physician who attained a bachelor’s degree in medicine from Canada. This program is 5 years in college total, and the curriculum apparently doesn’t teach ethics or compassion for others.

John Sanderson, M.B.B.S. (bachelor’s degree in medicine) who lost his medical license for negligence and repeated negligence, and sexual misconduct with a female patient.

If you want to read about Mr. Sanderson’s exploits as a practicing physician, look him up here.

I’ve selected a few excerpts shown below:

Sanderson previously was a family practice physician with an undergraduate medical degree – a bachelor’s degree in medicine. Once Sanderson finished his Canadian undergraduate degree in medicine, and once he passed the medical board test in the US, regulations permitted him to use the designation “M.D.” Sanderson frequently finds himself in disputes with other companies, one of which apparently exposed that Sanderson committed domestic violence.

Sanderson was not trained as a dermatologist and was not board certified. He obviously has little to no understanding of the skin’s powerful immune system, and no idea of how bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells work in the body. Upon losing his medical license, he started a company to do further harm to people by having them use products that induce inflammation and potentially cancer. The other physicians who is part of AnteAge and the co-blogger with Mr. Sanderson, is George Taylor, a retired anesthesiologist. Like Sanderson, Taylor has no science background and no published scientific papers. So ignorant is this guy that he has a video saying that red blood cells have no signaling capacity. That they don’t have or react to cytokines. Sorry, George. They do. I’d hate to have this sleepy guy putting me to sleep on the operating table.

Trying to understand why a company would bring a proinflammatory, possibly pro-oncogenic product to the market, I looked closer at the company. Because John Sanderson is not a scientist, and has never listed that he has any scientific publication, only misleading blogs, I wondered how did he come to choose his technology. I discovered that Sanderson had enlisted fellow Canadian, Jonathan Lakey, Ph.D. as his scientific advisor. To no surprise, the man who had lost his medical license because of incompetence had hired a scientist, Jonathan Lakey, who had been fired from his university because of fraud.

A non-profit government organization in Canada fired Jonathan Lakey for the same reason:

Then Jonathan Lakey was charged with fraud and racketeering at one of the companies in which he was an officer:

Jonathan Lakey’s involvement with a number of other companies that are pump and dump schemes has made the news a number of times. Clearly, using a product on your skin from this dynamic fraudster-incompetence duo is a bad choice – they do not have anyone’s well being in mind.

There are other skin care companies led by physicians. I suggest if you’re interested in their products, go to the state medical board website in which they practice, and look at the current status of their medical license. For example, you can search physicians in California here, and in Colorado here. You may be surprised what you find. Simply type in their name, and you’re likely to find disiplinery actions and loss of license.
