The Molecule Behind Superhuman Recovery & Brain Power | Chris Burres | Ep. 65
This week on A Healthy Point of View, host Sam Tejada sits down with Chris Burres—mechanical engineer turned Chief Scientific Officer of My Vital C—to uncover one of the most fascinating molecules in health science. Learn how a Nobel Prize–winning discovery found its way into everyday wellness, and why researchers refer to it as the "Boss of Buffering Oxidative Stress."
In this revealing conversation, you’ll discover:
- How 60‑carbon fullerene molecules were first spotted in space and later manufactured—five years before their Nobel acclaim
- A groundbreaking 90% lifespan extension in rats with no tumors, and what that could mean for humans
- Why elite ultra-runners credit improved recovery before training even begins
- How it enhances antioxidant power without interfering in your body’s natural stress responses
- Heartwarming testimonials …yes, even for pets—like the pug whose owner said “he’s 80% better” in days
- Ongoing cutting-edge research: inflammation biomarkers, mitochondrial health, sleep, exercise, and more
Chris also shares best biohacking tips (including olive oil shots, MCT blends, and red-light skincare), how he applies improv comedy to life, and why taking control of your own health beats conventional care.
