Carbon-60 (C-60) is a molecule that won a Nobel Prize in Chemistry for its groundbreaking discovery – and now it’s at the center of fascinating research into aging and longevity. In this episode, our guest is Chris Burres and we dig into the story of how a lab material used in industry found its way into the world of health and human performance.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

• The fascinating history of C60
• Why oxidative stress is central to aging and disease
• How C60 may act as a unique antioxidant without blunting exercise benefits
• Early animal studies describing C60’s effects on lifespan, tumors, and inflammation
• Anecdotal reports in humans on sleep, recovery, inflammation, and HRV
• The importance of safety, purity, and scientific rigor in supplementation

Longevity breakthroughs always come with both promise and skepticism. This conversation brings the science, the story, and the open questions to light, so you can better understand where C60 fits in the longevity landscape.
