Today on the pod we talk about C-15:0 Essential Fatty Acid with Dr. Stephanie Venn-WatsonDVM, MPH. Dr. Venn-Watson is the CEO and co-founder of Seraphina Therapeutics, Inc. in San Diego, California. She and her husband, Eric Venn-Watson, MD, made the groundbreaking discovery of C15:0.

Also known as pentadecanoic acid, C15:0 is an essential fatty acid that has largely disappeared from the modern Western diet. Certain kinds of fatty acids can actually slow aging-related breakdown in our cells. And C15:0 is one of them.

The Drs. Venn-Watson are bringing it to the market as a food fortifier and nutritional supplement called fatty15.
