About the Webinar
The Longevity Nutrient
September 17 at 4:00 pm PST
Join Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson, veterinarian and public health scientist, for a groundbreaking exploration into C15:0 (pentadecanoic acid)—the first essential fatty acid to be discovered in over 90 years. Backed by decades of research, including surprising findings from aging dolphins, this session will reveal how C15:0 plays a critical role in cellular health, metabolic function, cognitive performance, and longevity.
Learn how C15:0:
- Strengthens cell membranes and reduces lipid peroxidation
- Targets key biological pathways (AMPK, PPARs, MAO-B, FAAH) for healthy aging
- May reverse "Cellular Fragility Syndrome," a newly identified deficiency affecting up to 1 in 3 people
- Has demonstrated superior safety, bioavailability, and health benefits compared to other longevity compounds
This webinar will provide a comprehensive overview of the clinical data, mechanisms of action, and future implications of C15:0 supplementation as a tool for integrative and preventive care.
Meet the Speaker
Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson
Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson is a veterinary epidemiologist with over eighty peer-reviewed scientific publications and seventy patents. Stephanie discovered the health benefits of C15:0 while working for the US Navy to continually improve the long-term health of Navy bottlenose dolphins. While seeking to understand why some dolphins were aging at healthier and slower rates than others, Stephanie applied an advanced technology called metabolomics on archived dolphin serum to discover which molecules predicted the healthiest aging dolphins. Here, she discovered C15:0 as a healthy saturated fatty acid. Upon completing eight key studies over three years, she presented C15:0 as the first essential fatty acid to be found in almost 100 years. In 2025 she published the best-selling Simon & Schuster book, The Longevity Nutrient; and was named a CNBC Changemaker Of The Year. Her unique One Health approach to discovering novel ways to improve both human and animal health has been featured on NPR’s Science Friday, The New York Times, Inverse, the BBC, National Geographic, and more.
