Our Story

fatty15® was founded with a clear purpose — to advance human health by supporting wellness at the most fundamental level of the body: the cell.

Our journey began not in a laboratory or a pharmaceutical lab — but in an unexpected place — among one of the world’s most intelligent marine mammals: bottlenose dolphins. What started as a scientific study soon led to a groundbreaking discovery that reshaped how we understand aging, cellular resilience, and long-term health.


A Remarkable Discovery — Where Science, Curiosity, and Purpose Met

While leading a long-term research program focused on dolphin health and aging, veterinary epidemiologist Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson observed something extraordinary.

Two dolphin populations living in similar environments were aging very differently:

  • one group displayed greater metabolic stability and stronger aging markers,

  • while the other group showed earlier onset of age-related conditions.

The difference wasn’t environmental — it was nutritional.

The healthier population consumed higher levels of an often-overlooked odd-chain saturated fatty acid called C15:0 (pentadecanoic acid).

Further controlled studies revealed a consistent pattern:

When C15:0 levels increased,
cellular stability, metabolic markers, and resilience significantly improved.

This discovery challenged outdated assumptions about fatty acids — and opened the door to a new scientific understanding of how specific nutrients can help:

  • strengthen cellular membranes

  • stabilize mitochondrial function

  • reduce cellular breakdown

  • support metabolic and immune balance

The findings were later reinforced through peer-reviewed research, clinical evaluations, and mechanistic cell studies — establishing C15:0 as an essential, beneficial nutrient for cellular health.


From Breakthrough Discovery to Human Health Innovation

Recognizing the profound human-health implications of this research, Stephanie partnered with physician and health entrepreneur Dr. Eric Venn-Watson.

Together, they asked an important question:

If C15:0 supports cellular strength in aging dolphins,
could it also help strengthen human cellular health?

Their mission became clear:

✔ isolate a pure, safe, and vegan-friendly form of C15:0
✔ ensure it meets rigorous scientific and clinical standards
✔ make it accessible as a simple, once-daily supplement

After years of formulation work, testing, safety validation, and review, they introduced:

fatty15® — the world’s first pure C15:0 cellular-health supplement.

What began as a marine biology study evolved into a human-health innovation platform dedicated to advancing longevity science and cellular wellness.


A Leadership Team Built on Science, Medicine, and Purpose

The fatty15® mission is guided by leaders across clinical medicine, public health, epidemiology, and longevity research — including:

  • Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson, DVM, MPH
    Co-Founder & Co-CEO — Veterinary epidemiologist, public-health scientist, and award-winning research leader

  • Dr. Eric Venn-Watson, MD, MBA
    Co-Founder & Co-CEO — Physician, medical entrepreneur, and operational healthcare innovator

  • Dr. Kim Kamdar, PhD
    Board Chair — Life-sciences executive and biotechnology strategist

  • Dr. Nicholas Schork, PhD
    Senior Scientific Advisor — Leading population-health and longevity researcher

Alongside a collaborative team of:

• clinical advisors

• nutritional specialists
• patient and consumer wellness advocates

Together, they share one unified belief:

Improving health at the cellular level
creates meaningful impact across the entire lifespan.


A Vision for Health — Backed by Research, Guided by Responsibility

fatty15® was founded to bridge the gap between:

  • evidence-based science

  • accessible wellness

  • and long-term health support

Our commitment extends beyond innovation — it includes:

✔ rigorous scientific validation
✔ transparent ingredient sourcing
✔ thoughtful, sustainable packaging
✔ ethical, purpose-driven development

Because strengthening cells isn’t just about longevity —
it’s about helping people feel stronger, sharper, and more resilient throughout life.


Our Mission — Empowering Stronger Cells for a Healthier Future

Today, fatty15® is trusted by wellness-minded individuals, health professionals, and longevity researchers worldwide.

But our mission remains the same as the day our discovery began:

To advance cellular health research —
and make scientifically grounded wellness accessible to the world.

We believe that when our cells are healthier…

Our bodies are stronger.
Our minds are clearer.
Our lives become more resilient.

And that is the story — and ongoing purpose — behind fatty15®.
