Dr Stephanie Venn-Watson and. husband physician Dr Eric Venn-Watson are one hell of a dynamic duo out to save the planet one person at a time and they started out by helping dolphins live longer. What started as a surprising discovery to protect dolphins' health has become a growing movement to restore our body's C15:0 levels, support our long-term health, and perhaps even slow aging.

Amazing! Wait - what is C15:0? Well in this episode we dive into just that very topic.   C15:0 (aka pentadecanoic acid) is a healthy, odd-chain saturated fatty acid naturally found in whole fat dairy, as well as some fish and plants. C15:0 is the first essential fatty acid to be discovered since omega-3, which was over 90 years ago. Because pure C15:0 has been shown to have 3x the cellular benefits of the highest performing omega-3, C15:0 is emerging as the essential, essential fatty acid. Numerous peer-reviewed studies have shown that people with higher C15:0 levels have better metabolic, heart, immune and liver health. Unfortunately, our C15:0 levels naturally decline as we age.     But I thought fats were bad?  Society spent a generation avoiding fat. But what does the science say?   Join us in. this episode to find out why your cells will age slower with Fatty15.   If after listening you are keen to get your hands on some you can grab it through this link fatty15.pxf.io/ORV41W   More facts on Fatty15 Fatty15 is a science-backed, award-winning C15:0 supplement that supports your long-term health & wellness.* Fatty15 delivers whole body and mind health at the cellular level C15:0 is the first essential fatty acid to be discovered since the omegas—over 90 years ago.
