Stephanie Venn-Watson, a marine biologist, discusses her research on dolphins and the discovery of Fatty15, a 15-carbon saturated fat that plays a crucial role in cellular health and longevity. The research in dolphins has implications for human health and longevity. The conversation explores the role of fatty acid C:15 in various health conditions, including liver damage, neurodegenerative diseases, anemia, and cardiovascular health. The researchers discuss how C:15 deficiency can lead to iron overload in the liver, causing lipid peroxidation and insulin resistance. They also highlight the potential benefits of C:15 in improving brain health, reducing neuroinflammation, and supporting the immune system. The conversation concludes with a discussion on ongoing research projects and the potential applications of C:15 in various health conditions.

Takeaways
- Dolphins with higher levels of C:15, a 15-carbon saturated fat, have slower aging rates and better overall health.
- C:15 protects cell membranes from lipid peroxidation and improves cellular signaling and energy production.
- C:15 inhibits JAK-STAT, reducing inflammation and cancer cell proliferation.
- Higher levels of C:15 are associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular disease.
- Supplementing with C:15 can attenuate the symptoms of liver damage and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
- C:15 may have potential benefits in improving brain health and reducing neuroinflammation.
- C:15 supplementation may help improve cardiovascular capacity and support the immune system.
- Ongoing research is exploring the effects of C:15 on anemia and Alzheimer’s disease.
