## Resource

If something claims to extend life by 90%… we need to slow down and ask better questions. In this episode, Lisa sits down with Chris Burres, founder and chief scientist of MyVitalC, to explore the science behind ESS-60—a molecule linked to one of the longest longevity experiments in mammals. Together, they unpack: What the research actually says (and doesn’t say) The role of mitochondria in aging The supplement industry’s biggest gaps What this means for women in perimenopause and menopause This is a conversation about curiosity, caution, and critical thinking. Key Takeaways: The ESS-60 molecule showed lifespan extension in rats—but human data is still emerging Aging is often linked to oxidative stress and inflammation Mitochondria play a central role in energy, hormones, and cellular health There is no single solution for menopause symptoms Lifestyle foundations still matter most: sleep, nutrition, movement, stress What We Discuss: The origin of ESS-60 and Nobel Prize research Longevity vs real-life quality of life Supplements: hype vs evidence Menopause, mitochondria, and hormone production Why “one solution fixes all” is a red flag Important Context: This conversation is exploratory and educational.
