The Unexpected Dolphin Discovery That May Hold the Key to Longevity | Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson
What if the key to aging well had been hiding in plain sight—inside our cells, our food, and even… dolphins? That’s exactly what Stephanie Venn-Watson, DVM, a veterinary epidemiologist, discovered while studying dolphins in the U.S. Navy’s marine mammal program. She found that some dolphins were aging significantly slower than others, leading to the discovery of C15:0—a newly recognized essential fatty acid that supports cellular health, fights inflammation, and may even slow the aging process. In this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, we dive into:
How studying dolphins led to the discovery of C15:0 as the first essential fatty acid found in 90 years.
Why a deficiency in this nutrient could be accelerating aging and chronic disease.
How C15:0 strengthens cell membranes, reduces inflammation, and promotes longevity.
The connection between diet, metabolic health, and optimal aging.
What you can do to ensure you’re getting enough of this essential fatty acid.
This groundbreaking discovery could change how we think about nutrition and longevity.
