211: Discovery of the Longevity Nutrient: C15 Part 1 with Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson


Listen Later

I am thrilled to have Stephanie Venn-Watson, a veterinary epidemiologist for the

Navy, joining me for a delightful two-part series.


I have always loved dolphins, and as it turns out, they have taught us a great

deal about aging! Today, in Part 1, Dr. Venn-Watson introduces longevity

molecules known as geroprotectors. She shares how she discovered C15 while

studying Navy dolphins and explains why those with higher C15 levels have a

longer health span than those with lower levels.


This interview has convinced me that I needed to take C15, which is available in a

supplement called Fatty15.


Best Food Sources for C15:

  • Dairy fat
  • Fatty fish (Heads and skin)

  • Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson's Bio:

    Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson is the CEO of Seraphina Therapeutics. A

    seasoned veterinary epidemiologist and public health scientist, Stephanie

    previously served at the World Health Organization and U.S. Navy. With a

    life-long mission of helping people (and our fellow animals) age better, her

    award-winning approach to improving human and animal health has been featured

    on NPR, BBC, CBS, and National Geographic.


    In her time as CEO, Seraphina Therapeutics has been recognized for its extensive

    research and education on pentadecanoic acid (C15:0).


    Stephanie received her B.S. in Animal Physiology and Neuroscience from UC San Diego,

    D.V.M. from Tufts University, M.P .H. from Emory University, and she was a

    National Research Council Associate with the Armed Forces Medical Intelligence

    Center. She is an Albert Schweitzer Fellow for Life.
