The Longevity Nutrient Book (Fatty15)
The Longevity Nutrient Book: Discover the science behind C15:0 with Dr Stephanie Venn-Watson’s book, The Longevity Nutrient.
Dr Venn-Watson is a veterinary epidemiologist who led a US Navy research programme focused on supporting long-term health and healthy ageing in dolphins. Through this work, she became interested in C15:0, a fatty acid found in foods such as whole dairy and some fatty fish, and explored its potential relevance to modern nutrition research. In The Longevity Nutrient, she shares the story of this discovery and the emerging science around C15:0, including how it may relate to cellular health and healthy ageing. The book is written in a narrative, investigative style and is a good fit for readers who enjoy evidence-informed wellness insights presented in an accessible way.
Inside, you will find:
- The story behind the dolphin research and how it led to C15:0
- An overview of the science to date and why this nutrient has generated interest
- Practical, common-sense ideas for how C15:0 may be incorporated into a balanced diet in a responsible way
