How Carbon 60 Fights Oxidative Stress, Boosts Mitochondria, and Extends Healthspan with Chris Burres
You’re probably taking a handful of supplements to feel better, sleep better, or slow aging. But what if a single molecule could support all three—and more?
Chris Burres didn’t set out to disrupt the health space. In fact, he spent years avoiding it. But after a molecule he manufactured for scientific research was accidentally shown to extend the lifespan of rats by 90%—yes, 9-0 percent—everything changed.
That is the ESS60, the upgraded, non-toxic version of the Nobel Prize-winning molecule C60.
In this episode, Chris shares the story behind this carbon-based breakthrough. How a molecule meant for batteries, tires, and solar panels ended up inside people’s bodies. Why it outperformed vitamin C by 125x as an antioxidant. And how it may be the most powerful buffer for oxidative stress your mitochondria have ever seen.
We're talking real science, real studies, and real results—from better sleep and mental clarity, to reduced inflammation and extended lifespan in animal models.
“This molecule was thought to be toxic, but instead of being toxic, the test subjects lived 90% longer than the control group. That's the single longest longevity experimental result on mammals in history.” — Chris Burres
About Chris Burres:
Chris Burres is a mechanical engineer turned health disruptor. He co-founded the oldest manufacturer of ESS60, a non-toxic form of Carbon 60, originally created for scientific and industrial use. When a 2012 study revealed that rats dosed with ESS60 lived 90% longer without developing tumors, Chris and his business partner realized they had a responsibility—and a moral obligation—to bring this discovery into the health space. Today, Chris is the co-founder of MyVitalC and author of Live Longer & Better, leading the charge in longevity, mitochondrial health, and cellular optimization.
