#451: Reimagining Aging: C60’s Role in Muscle Function, Neuroprotection, and Extending Vitality With Ian Mitchell
Today, I’m joined once again by the innovative Ian Mitchell, a name familiar to anyone passionate about radical longevity, biohacking, and pushing the boundaries of human performance. In this conversation, Ian pulls back the curtain on the science and surprising applications of C60—known as the “buckyball” molecule—and why it’s become such a powerful tool for both peak performance and healthy aging.
We dig into how C60 works at the cellular level, why it’s as much about upgrading the way you use your muscles as it is about building more, and the specific protocols he’s developed for tackling inflammation, boosting mitochondrial health, and supporting the nervous system. Ian also shares the stories and research behind his potent formulations, plus the best way to get started for lasting results.
If you’ve ever wondered how to cut through the hype and use innovative tools to genuinely move the needle on your longevity—without sacrificing practicality—this is the perfect episode to tune into.
