As a physician who has a patient population of young adults with fatty liver disease, I find the C15:0 story compelling. Specifically the pathophysiology of the cellular fragility syndrome makes sense. Low levels of sturdy fatty acids like C15:0 in our cell membranes leads to weakened cells, leading to lipid peroxidation, ROS, iron deposition, iron overload and cell death by ferroptosis, leading to accelerated NAFLD/NASH. Further, the clinical trial you mentioned was performed by Dr. Schwimmer, a leader in pediatric fatty liver disease. The way I read his findings is that if you increase your C15:0 levels above 5ug/mL, patients with increased liver enzymes had significant improvements in ALT and AST, which to me means that there is a safe, low risk way to address a condition (fatty liver disease) that has very few treatment options. Exciting (but early) findings.
You are either incorrect or have little evidence that supplements that are antioxidants generally blunt the effect of exercise. You should stop saying this. Some antioxidants do this but not all. We know that there are human studies suggesting that astaxanthin increases muscle strength and endurance. There are mouse studies on curcumin and olive leaf extract that show that each improved muscle mass, strength and /or endurance.
I will give you one example, but there are several
This human clinical trial on Natural Astaxanthin in 2011 was funded by Gatorade Sports Science Institute. For this study, Gatorade used competitive cyclists, supplementing them with a placebo or 4 mg of Natural Astaxanthin each day for four weeks. From the endurance athlete’s-or for that matter-from any competitive athlete’s perspective, the results were excellent. In a 20 kilometer (approximately 12.5 mile) cycling time trial, the performance of the subjects taking Astaxanthin significantly improved, while the subjects taking placebo showed no improvement. Natural Astaxanthin made these competitive cyclists on average 5% faster in only 28 days. Also, the cyclists taking Astaxanthin demonstrated significant improvement in their power output, which increased by 15% on average over the same 28 day period.
As far as I know, Gatorade does not sell, and has not sold, a product containing astaxanthin
@@Eevee-s3u This comment is way beyond Brad's ken. Brad's contribution to science is as "Et al." on three whole papers...and none of them having anything to do with fatty acids.
I've been critical of your videos in the past due to what I believed were overly negative statements towards some supplements & health interventions that had both positive and negative data supporting their use. In this case, you have redeemed some of my criticism by providing solid information and an educational public service. Thank you for this.
Man that C15 TED talk has been all over my RUclips feed lately too.
Odd, it never came up on mine. I subscribe to at least 19 health and aging channels.
And if it IS found to be effective, guess what? A pharmaceutical company will say that it is extremely beneficial for a particular ailment and will apply with the FDA for it to be sold by prescription only.
It depends. Astaxanthin from BioAstin got FDA-approved but can still readily be bought without prescription.
Seems like some supplements companies are just as bad for the public as pharmaceutical companies.
I heard that some idiot at Harvard tried that with NMN, a variant of niacin.
Vit C was helpful in lab rats with CMT neuropathy but didn't work in humans with CMT
Definition of vitamin is?
Most Vitamin C supplements are unstable. Unless they use a stabilized slow release version I don't think anyone knows what it's capable of.
Which is sad. No one does the leg work on anything.

"if you torture the data long enough, it will confess to anything" - Ronald Coase, not surprisingly an economist.
As an MD myself, I have serious health issues and sequela from DM, renal failure and now transplant.
I have been on the road to recovery now for 3 years.
Nothing I did improved my Hct from the 42 range. I started on Fatty15 7 weeks Ago. My Hct has jumped to almost 49.
I have gone from needing 9 hours of sleep to 7.
Interestingly, one of the drugs I take for rejection, Prograf, is tested monthly for its level.
The level started going down indicated I needed more to be therapeutic. What is interesting I have been on a microscopic dose, which always mad the transplant team anxious. I know I’m interpreting this the way I want to see it, but I believe it is because my liver is functioning at a higher level.
I have also been suffering from paper thin skin for almost 7 years. Nothing helped. It would bruise and tear very easily.
Now it takes a major injury to cut or bruise.
Sorry Brad.
You can poopoo this all you want.
If you want to sell your stuff, you do you.
I wish doctors were as careful about prescribing medications.
The other side of the argument: A lack of evidence isn't evidence of a lack. My wife and I have been taking C15 for two months so far, and it has had some positive effects on our health. With no other changes to our healthcare we've noticed better skin, hair, and nails, and I expect to see some better figures on our next set of blood tests. So, it appears to work for us. If you choose not to use it then by all means follow your inclination, but in a field as quack-ridden as healthcare (Remember "fat makes you fat"? Also, when was the last time a doctor prescribed a coronary calcium test, despite its efficacy?), it's better to keep an open mind.
Until you have those better blood tests, you haven't even got anecdotal evidence. I hope you do get improvements. It would be nice if the hype were true. Though, if true, the Fed should invalidate the patent. Nothing "essential" should be patentable. That is not in the public interest. You can't patent the water we drink or the air we breathe.
The best affordable arterial disease progression measure is a Carotid Intima-Media Thickness Test (CIMT). Calcium just tells you about the stabilized plaque. The inflamed liquid plaques are the ones most likely to burst and cause a heart attack or stroke. If there was no change in lifestyle, and calcium score is high, it is likely there is the bad stuff too, but this is just logical deduction not measurement.
There are other cheap tests that have utility. Pulse wave analysis, and a test you can actually do yourself: The ankle-brachial index test. With repeated measurements, averages and such, doing it yourself with an electronic blood pressure cuff large enough for your ankle, and following the directions, it is doable at home. I have done it. I get 1.1 I think that is close to optimal. If my score was not so good, I would be begging for that CIMT.
Very true, don’t forget there is something known as a placebo effect.
It is a bit pricy. But one can also get it in foods (butter, ghee, durian). (Though these have other saturated fats.) But the risk is very low, esp. compared to the suggested (though not proven) benefits. So one can try it, and see how one feels. This is esp. if one has avoided dairy most of one's life, and probably majorly deficient in something.
If one waits for it to be established fully scientifically, this will take awhile. (I also agree they probably hyped too much. They probably could've qualified their claims as preliminary. Also, I find opinions on nutrition and supplements seem to be all over the place, on RUclips, even by scientifically credentialed people. This isn't to say there aren't broad areas of agreement. But there are also lots of places of dispute.)
When I first took it, it wasn't as I expected. The effects were a bit of bloating, amped up energy (such that my blood pressure went up), as well a kind of calm. It was mixed. But my blood pressure worried me. So I stopped. Then figured I'd dose it in, with smaller amounts. First just using durian. Later, a small amount of the capsule powder in my coffee. Eventually can now do a capsule a day.
The longer term effects have now been lowering my blood pressure, better wound healing, calmer, less stressed, HRV improving. There were a lot of things that improved across the board. I'll go in for blood work, in about the month. If this is a placebo, there are a lot of other things I've taken before, that could've been placebos. This feels different. But we'll see.
Why not get it from food first?
@@NateB There are other saturated fats, that may not be so good. But if one can't afford the supplement, at least don't eliminate any macro food group out of one's diet (as I did). Everything in moderation.
Actually many ingredients that make a cake taste better also make a stew taste better... Adding black chocolate to the sauce of a beef stew like Daube or Boeuf Bourgignon is an old trick of french cooks, cinnamon also adds flavor. More general, adding sugar to savory dishes in general makes them better, as does adding a bit of salt to many sweet desserts and cakes. Adding butter to both will also make them simultaneously tastier and unhealthier...
Do two teaspoons of Ghee per day (very tasty). It has the same amount of C 15 as the Fatty 15 supplement.
Right... or put a little cream in your coffee, or have a little cream cheese. "Deficiency" cured.
I do one ounce of cheddar cheese in my salad. It has the same amount of C15 plus it is high in spermidine.
I have a few grams of butter on a slice of seed bread fron trader joes for lunch and dinner. A total of 22 carbs and some protein too.
Almost all from taurine to rapamycin start off and are primarily based on animal studies. The data on dogs who live 12 years more or less is not even out. You too push your own supplements based on the weakest of non randomized trials on multivitamins. And I get it that you too need to get hits for your RUclips. So you either take a non conflicted educational role or you stop making yourself look better than the others. Everything imho out there is more or less personal opinions that are attempting to be monetized
I was looking forward to this from you. Thank you ❤
"All of this is complete bollocks" 🤣
Love it.
Gotta love it when one snake-oil salesman (He's selling his OWN line, which we're to believe is perfect?) calls another one out.
@@phaedrusalt You have to have the intelligence to know the difference between the two.
Maybe you could ask someone, then? @@johnb9942
Excellent information 👍
Thx for covering Fatty 15, haven't been able to find an objective review since it's release a while back. It's super expensive as well.
Listen to latest Dave Asprey podcast. The person behind it is on it and mentions where you can get links to research. Up to you to decide then.
Don't forget that Dr Brad was pro resvératrol just a few years ago after he'd drunk the David Sinclair Koolaid (as had many of us, admittedly). Even at that time there was research around which dissed it.
thank you so much for this really informative video🤗
I’m in my 50’s and most of my family has died from Alzheimer’s. Because of this and my age, I started taking neuro hacking supplements a few years ago. I had a full physical about 5 months ago and was told my liver enzymes were spot on for good health. 4 months ago, I added the supplement uridine after watching some videos on it. A month ago I ended up spending several days in the hospital with fatty liver disease. They said one of my numbers is supposed to be under 100, but was now over 2100. I started reading about each supplement I take and found that in some, uridine can cause this. I stopped taking all supplements completely. I feel more clear minded now than I have in years. I’m going to steer clear of supplements for the foreseeable future.
Apolipoprotein E4 is associated with improved cognitive function in Amazonian forager-horticulturalists with a high parasite burden
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5349792/
Contrary to observations in industrial populations, older adult E4 carriers with high parasite burdens either maintained or showed slight improvements in cognitive performance, whereas non-E4 carriers with a high parasite burden showed reduced cognitive performance. Being an E4 carrier is the strongest risk factor to date of AD and cognitive decline in industrial populations
Thank you Dr. Stanfield for the insightful, well organized analysis.
Let's put Dr. Stanfield's own marketing approach under the loop: 1) The all cap titel with exclamation point baiting the viewer's pointer finger/click bait (the "EXPOSED!" was a bit of let down, Brad. I only clicked thinking I'd get to see you in the buff) 2) Write a comment to your own video and pin it so it's the first one to be read 3) In your pinned comment dutifully promote a list of supplements you take, one of which, by the oddest of circumstances, has your own name on the bottle 4) For 10 minutes "expose" a supplement (that doesn't have your name on the bottle) that has been extensively written about in scientific literature across the globe, hoping people will spend their money on your own supplement instead. And that is the 4 Step Dr. Stanfield Supplement Hawking Cycle.
awaiting more research. early days but are getting some good results after 2 months.
If you're studying C15, you should be studying it in relation to age related organ iron overload.
Particularly, expression of IL-11 driven inflammation and P21 expression in stem cells.
Thanks Brad! You are my go to guy for common sense medical analysis.
Dr Brad is HUGELY on point here, however, there are molecules that have almost no strong human peer reviewed documentation, yet they have been known over the centuries and in various countries around the world. Thanks, Brad.
There are also many examples of snake oil that have existed for centuries. This is why strong human peer reviewed documentation matters: separating fact from fiction.
Such as?
People also believed in witches for a long time. That doesn’t make them real. Could be placebo.
Best video yet Brad. Your videos are becoming sharper and sharper. Keep u the good work.
Please do a video on reversing hair loss and greying
And reversing hypothyroidism!
I see that you take psyllium husk for digestive health. Could you comment on recent research that says beta glucans (found in mushrooms, seaweed, barley and oat husks) are even better for gut nutrition than insoluble fiber like psyllium?
Dr. Brad will you please do a video on hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Timely video, brother - time to put a spotlight on Urolithin-A, if you haven't already.
Nice one Dr Brad, I reached a similar conclusion.
Fantastic, we need much more like that! Thank you!
Having taken Fatty 15 for 5 months now my HDL is the highest it has ever been, my before & after blood test prove it. This was the reason I started it. Also fasting Insulin went from 15 to 6.6. I will keep on taking it and will test again at the end of the year. For now my biomarkers are moving in the right direction if that changes then I will change my supplements.
Maybe you’ve changed something else too ??
I believe his job is to deter you from something that may work. He does this all the time.
@@MegaWandak Oh? And why would he do that?
I’m taking it to. I am seeing and feeling much better. 59 and getting morning erections again. How’s that for a scam? I’ll take the scam.
@@MegaWandak True, I feel this way about Brad. Only focuses on single facts about substances that have been studied vastly in many areas like resveratrol.
I saw an interview with SVW and my intuition red flags were going up. Something about her doesn't feel right. I've been looking at various channels to get more info and appreciate this caution. I eat grass fed butter so I don't think I need a supplement unless it has more human data.
Dr. Brad
You are correct in your assessment in regards to fatty 15.
If you look at their web site, they list a different address for their returns that they shut down in 2020. Fatty 15 has no actual store front.
So where is this product manufactured?
Dr. Brad, please keep digging into these unscrupulous vitamin claims.
doctors selling supplements, it's not a conflict of interest?..
Let's ask Brad. Brad, any conflict of interest being a doctor and promoting your own line of supplements?
Thank you Dr. Stanfield! I almost purchased their product :( It has been touted on so many podcasts! Honesty and understanding are thoroughly lacking on so many other podcasts!
me too
I did and it’s making a big difference in my health.
This fatty15 sounds interesting. I hadn’t heard of it. Going to try a bottle.
Ozempic is a good example of what will happen if someone comes out with something that actually works as well as its advertised. You're gonna hear about it very quickly
Ozempic also calls bowel obstruction. And you're not hearing about that yet, are you?
I have taken C15 and C17 several times and it seems to give me a reduction in stress hormones. I find it quite useful after a long day of work. My libido also increases .
I am glad I waited. I was one of the people that took the information about C15 to heart. But I never bought any. I was thinking a bit in the direction of eating those types of fish those dolphins ate. But I have a question, on your video. You showed white compressed pills, but how can those contain fats?
I heard AG1 was a scam as well.
Check some videos about the owner. A professional scammer
creatine is just about the only supplement that matches the hype and I’ve been around for 60 years so few really pan out to your point don’t chase every new thing doctor oz was the biggest offender every week a new miracle, food or pill for me this is a particularly good video thank you
There’s a few others.
love your analogy re sub group analysis : if you torture the data enough you can get the result you want to hear
I don't know dude, your thing is a clickbaity than any other video on youtube. I decided to try it either way and i have to admit i am a bit impressed by the c15 thing. We decided with my gp to try to lower some dosage of my antihypertension med and i take measures very carefully every week. It's been years. It was a big surprise to see that i don't need the medication anymore and that my hypertension is gone. I still wonder why though. To be more accurate i didn't change anything else in my meds or food. So far it's been a good surprise
I'm so glad you go against the mainstream health-RUclips-channel trend with pushing supplements by sowing fear and instead stick to medical research on humans.
Perhaps Dr. Stanfield should do a video on Dr. Stanfield. It does make you question how impartial the good doctor really is when he is shamelessly pushing his own line of supplements in every video he puts out. BTW Brad, just love the modest name of your "Dr. Brad Stanfield Micro Vitamin".
Yes, supplements must be research science based and have pharmaceutical level quality control, even then they dont work for everyone in the same way, just as drugs don't always too .
What a fantastic and eye-opening video, Dr. Stanfield! 🌟 Your breakdown of the supplement hype cycle is not just timely but essential in a world where "miracle cures" seem to pop up faster than a TikTok dance trend.
It's fascinating (and a bit alarming) how the supplement industry has mastered the art of storytelling. They’ve turned marketing into a high-stakes game of "who can sell the most hope." I mean, if I had a dollar for every time I saw a supplement marketed as the "next big thing," I could probably fund my own clinical trial! 💸
Your point about TEDx talks being used as platforms for unvetted claims is particularly striking. It’s like watching a magician pull a rabbit out of a hat-impressive, but you have to wonder where that rabbit came from! 🐇✨ Just because someone is on a stage doesn’t mean they’re not just selling smoke and mirrors.
And let’s not forget the irony of it all: we’re often told to "trust the science," yet many of these supplements lack the rigorous research that would make any scientist proud. It’s like being served a gourmet meal that looks amazing but is made entirely of air-satisfying to the eyes, but not so much for the stomach! 🍽
For anyone looking to navigate this minefield, your advice on seeking out supplements with proven health benefits is golden. It’s a reminder that sometimes the best "supplement" is a balanced diet and a good night’s sleep. Who knew that the real miracle cure was just a well-rounded lifestyle?
Thanks for shedding light on this important topic, and for keeping us all informed and entertained! Looking forward to your next video-maybe something on the "real" benefits of kale? 😉🥬
Just as bad as the pharmaceutical companies
Would your grandma need to do resistance training to get the health benefits from creatine?
If you are a dolphin eat butter and cheese.
Brad. Thank you. I fell for the C15 pitch, but cancelled last week. Still, was nice to learn about the actual science, or lack thereof. Really respect this channel, and your in depth explorations.
I just tried it. It ruined my sleep. When it was promoted to enhance sleep.
I have been sleeping horribly since taking fatty15. I was sleeping quite well before it. So disappointed since sleep is so imperative to good health. I feel even worse now.
What I did after reading all the "C15 papers" I could find - simply make a more concerted daily effort to getting grass-fed dairy products, goat/sheep milk products, and/or grass-fed beef. Near as I can tell, about 2 ounces a day of such cheese or butter, 4 oz of such beef, or a couple cups a day of such whole milk meets the "RDA" (assuming/if such a thing truly exists for C15). Any one of those in nominal amounts each day should do the trick, and since all of those are all healthy unprocessed foods with beneficial Omega 3 profiles as well - as long as I keep it all within daily calorie thresholds there is no downside risk if the whole thing turns out to be bullocks. :)
What about the saturated and trans fat content? What about the associations of animal protein with cancer and autoimmune diseases (established with strong statistical significance in epidemiological studies documented in the China Study?)
What about them? Sure, there are people with allergies or vegan that may wish to avoid. I would suggest anyone that believes proper health maintenance must include 100% avoidance of any level of saturated fat consumption is not fully or properly informed. For example; C15 itself - to any extent it truly is essential - is a saturated fat. And somehow, if the research is to be believed, that saturated fat became “essential” to proper cellular health over the course of at least a few hundred thousand years of evolution (if not millions), despite the absence of a magic pill…
Good content, Brad!
I have obtained a letter from the National Archives that Stephanie Venn-Watson wrote back in 1977 when she was just 5 years old. She wrote to the United States Congress demanding they modify the dietary guidelines to exclude dairy fat. AND THEY DID JUST THAT! The same exact year, her future husband wrote to Sardian sheep farmers in broken-Italian and asked them to consume adundant amounts of their pecorino cheese to obtain high levels of C15:0. Their plan? 45 years later compare Sardians with high levels of pentadecanoic acid to Americans with almost none, pen some wild story and publish it in a peer-reviewed journal, then create a supplement. And it worked...ALMOST. If it hadn’t been for the New Zealand medical Magnum P.I. (you just need to grow a crumb catcher, Brad) they would have gotten away with it! Thanks for the cracking the case! By the way, I would love to try the supplement you're pushing on your website (the Dr. Brad Stanfield Micro Vitamin for a cool $39.99) in order to reep the "18% smoother skin" benefit. Would you recommend I have my rough skin tested prior to taking it and then again after 3 months? What would that test be, exactly? Thanks, Julian
Thank you for this review.
Interesting report. What about Urolithin A ?
The problem to solve is that in this case a parallel study on humans could take several hundred years. So how do we deal with that as empiricists?
We don’t. That’s how.
We don’t.
I appreciate the information. I had taken this product before and it did nothing for me. I even put that on a post of this product on facebook. Some had even taken this for a year and it did nothing for them as well. I hope this video makes it around so others know not to take this product.
If I had a nickel for every time something called "fatty" tried to scam me I'd have two nickels this year, which isnt a lot but its weird that it happened twice.
Aaawww tell me you didn't buy the coin

Excellent video! 👏👏👏
Execellent video, Dr Brad. Cutting through the wellness BS is important work. I’d be interested to know your opinion of naturopathy, a practice that seems to rely on prescribing any number of supplements to treat patients.
Dr Brad's argument , to me, sounds like because he has not yet seen human trial results, that the product is ineffective and automatically assumes the company is devious...Lack of human trial results should not give anyone, especially a famous online doctor, an excuse to vilify a company
think you've missed the overall point of my video, particularly the last part. My main gripe with this is the overhyping and overselling. From the Fatty15 website, the potential benefits appear proven when in reality they are not
@@DrBradStanfield "Overselling", says the doctor turned supplement salesman.
Thank you very much for this.
Hi brad, don't you offer any discount code from your supplements? I am thinking of switching and putting my trust in you. I usually buy them separately from do not age.
Are the compounds from natural foods or plants?
I falled for it 😢😅, huge thanks for the knowledge and general eye opening!
Great video. I bought into the hype because of the interview with Stephanie Venn Watson. She seemed so sincere and the dolphin story and the Sardinian (humans) story. She may be sincere and the marketing people took over and over hyped the product. The fatty 15 people say they have a double blind placebo human trial of 20 people taking their pills and 10 control people taking placebos with good results on the 20 people. I wish Brad had talked some about the Sardinians and the human trials, otherwise it was a great video.
Both Brian Johnson and Dave Pasco both take it as far I can see.
It's just Dave Pasco... Sorry...
I believe the same thing happened with CoQ10
Everyone loves dolphins. I’m going to find the secret component in bamboo shoots because everyone gushes over panda bears.
Consumer Labs is ONE MAN.
This video was very helpful. I've been subscribed to Fatty15 for over a year. Cancelled my subscription today. I had not noticed any differences.
It’s helped me with inflammation a ton in a very short time, so maybe there’s more to it.
Thanks a lot for this video. Just in time, as I was on the point of ordering some C15
I figured this stuff was a gimmick.
Thank you Brad
Yes, this aligns with my experience as a consumer. Not a science person but usually curious about things, I like to find the evidence for claims and it is often very much like was described here: “in animal studies …. Scientists found in mice that ….” Listening to many of the presentations you find on RUclips, there are great leaps in logic. You often read the “10 best foods/supplements for people with (insert condition)” and when you read through said list, it is full of hyperbole, making tenuous links such as Vitamin C is an antioxidant therefore prunes, which are high in vitamin C can reduce3 inflammation. Can sound convincing. Going through a few health conditions myself, I’ve become very alert to the points described here relative to that hype cycle. Some articles look like they have actually made links to scientific research and will provide the links (knowing most people wont read them but just accept the fact that “it must be true then”) that are actually related to something else. The dosage of supplements is also concerning to me. There needs to be regulation of the supplement industry.
Thank you Dr Brad
Also while what makes a cake taste good may make a stew taste better it also may make it worse. Similarly, the supplement may worsen our health. So literally no reason to take it, it gives hope but also risks.
Nice video Dr. Stanfield.NIH is where I usually go far information
Oh no!! I just bought this supplement because it was promoted many times on the podcasts. Will not buy this again!
Don't throw it out. Take a blood test before and after, it may work!

Well it may be my so called placebo effect trait from Ancestry, but on day 32 the hair on my arms is getting thick, sex changes - more ejaculate, slightly better sleep. Better mood. I am 70. Also started taking astragalus though as well. I have looked hard for the papers from 2012, nada. It does make me suspicious about a scientific journey vs. greed. But if it can lower mTor which is unproven, it might escape all those patents and just be added back into milk.🎉 My hearing loss may be improving due to that new form of autophagy. But there are other variables that may be involved.
Dr. Stephanie Venn Watson is an interesting person with, indeed, great insight. Also notable is her entrepreneur mind. She seems to know how to put the results of her work into an ingenious new business. I understand that when she and her team discovered the role of C15 in the well-being of the dolphins, she attributed the lack of C15 to the changing nutrition of the animals. In other words, according to her, in the past those dolphins would have had sufficient C15 to thrive. Therefore, for millennia dolphins have received all the needed C15 from the right diet. What humans need is to eat a healthy diet rich in saturated fats from dairy. Look at the centenarians of Sardinia. They seem to have enough of the C15 in their system without any supplement. They apparently get all their C15 from eating dairy product from raw goats and sheep’s milk pasturing on the grass of high mountains tops. I modestly believe that we can get the C15 we need from the proper diet rich in dairy saturated fats and the meat of those animals. Just have cheese high in C15 daily, and a rack of lamb regularly!
