Today I'm speaking with Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson on the Longevity Optimization Podcast. In this episode, we discuss the intriguing concept of longevity molecules, with a particular focus on C15 fatty acid and its implications for health and aging. Our conversation explores various longevity molecules, their mechanisms, and the surprising findings from research on dolphins that led to the discovery of C15 as a key factor in healthy aging. We emphasize the importance of understanding dietary sources of C15 and its role in promoting longevity and overall health.

Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson is a leading researcher in the field of longevity and nutrition, dedicated to uncovering the connections between dietary components and health outcomes. Throughout our discussion, we delve into the significance of C15 fatty acid in relation to aging, health, and nutrition. We highlight how C15 influences biological age, cell stability, and the implications of iron overload. The conversation also explores the multifaceted benefits of C15, particularly for women's health and infant nutrition, while emphasizing the importance of optimizing C15 levels for overall well-being. Additionally, we draw parallels between the longevity of dolphins and human health, introducing emerging research on C15's role in mental health, providing listeners with valuable insights into this promising area of study.
