Small but mighty: the fatty acid that packs a considerable longevity punch

Fatty15 CEO Stephanie Venn-Watson on why accidental discoveries can actually be the best ones when it comes to longevity.
Fatty15 is a longevity supplement centered around a very simple fatty acid that was discovered as a result of studying health data of US Navy dolphins and which has led to decades of accepted nutritional guidance being called into question. This super nutrient is called C15:0.
As a stable fatty acid, C15:0 is readily integrated into cell membranes, making cells more resilient against breakdown. It attenuates multiple hallmarks of aging, including cellular senescence, inflammaging, mitochondrial dysfunction and poor cellular signaling.
Humans don’t make enough C15:0, so we need to get adequate amounts from our diet or through supplementation. However, saturated fats have been demonized for decades, being blamed for high cholesterol and heart disease. We sat down with Stephanie Venn-Watson, DVM, MPH, the Co-Founder and CEO of fatty15 to find out why the dietary guidelines on fatty acids need to be revisited, how the discovery of C15:0 and its longevity benefits came about, and the role C15:0 can play in menopause and more.

Did the did the healthily aging senior dolphins eat different fish or have something that led them to have more C15?

[@noway2563]

They eat candle fish , which are in in c15.

​​@@noway2563thanks for the reply &info. I see that Venn-Watson clearly states that the molecule was teased out via metabolomics. ... I think the loose wording that led me to confusion might have been in the Dr Vesser video where I first heard C15. Thx 🐬

[@madison1446]

How was or how did "We remove C15 from our diet"? Thx

We have stopped eating full-fat dairy products, and the cows now eat poor quality food, ie not grass-fed.
