About the Episode

If you’ve tried every longevity hack and still feel like something’s missing, this episode is for you! The Nobel Prize-winning molecule ESS60 could be the breakthrough you’ve been searching for.

In this episode, Chris Burres, founder and chief scientist at My Vital C, unpacks how a molecule once used only for industrial purposes is now making headlines for extending life and optimizing health. If you’re curious about simple ways to boost your energy, sleep better, and feel younger, you’ll want to hear how this overlooked discovery is changing lives.

Listen to this episode and unlock your potential for a longer, healthier future!

What We Discuss

Chris Burres brings years of laboratory science and real-world testimonials to explain how ESS60 is rewriting what we know about longevity. In animal studies, this molecule increased lifespan by up to 90%. People who use it report better mental clarity, deeper sleep, and noticeable improvements in energy and vitality.

From Industrial Use to Longevity Supplement

Originally developed for industrial applications, research on ESS60 as a toxin had the opposite result. Chris explains how new research and the biohacking community finally brought this molecule to the world of wellness and longevity.

Longevity Benefits

This molecule supports cellular health and tackles oxidative stress, which drives the aging process. Users report improvements in sleep, focus, energy, and hair and nail strength. Animal research and clinical anecdotal evidence show it may also reduce inflammation markers such as HS-CRP, supporting recovery and overall wellness.

Is ESS60 Right for You?

ESS60 is 125x stronger than vitamin C and works at the mitochondrial level, supporting deep cellular function and healthy aging. Supplementation may help provide a science-backed pathway to vitality that you may have missed before.

New clinical trials aim to confirm the molecule’s most impressive anecdotal results from the growing community of users tracking their own transformations. From daytime focus to sleep, biohackers and everyday users alike are tracking their dramatic improvements in recovery, resilience, and quality of life.
