In this episode, we're going deep on Carbon 60—also known as C60 or buckyballs. If you've ever wondered how a molecule that started life as an industrial lubricant ended up a star player in the world of anti-aging, you're in for a treat. Ian and I talk about the original studies that blew everyone's minds (including a rat study where the animals lived nearly twice as long as expected!), and we discuss Ian's own hands-on research, from mouse models to dogs, horses, and even human applications.
