Welcome to Ben Greenfield’s Weekly Roundup!
In this weekly post, I share with you my most interesting discoveries of the week, including the latest news on the fronts of fitness, nutrition, health, wellness, biohacking, and anti-aging research. I also recap my upcoming events and special announcements so you can keep up with opportunities to learn, giveaways, discounts, and more!
New Discoveries
The First Essential Fatty Acid to Be Discovered in 90 Years (And It’s 3X More Potent Than Omega-3s!)
I’m excited to share a revolutionary discovery in the realm of essential fatty acids: C15:0.
Believe it or not, it’s the first essential fatty acid to be unearthed in a whopping 90 years. And guess what? Studies show that it’s not just any old fatty acid — it’s three times better, broader, and safer than your typical omega-3.
The mastermind behind this impressive find is Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson, co-founder of Fatty15. Dr. Venn-Watson stumbled upon C15:0 while working with the U.S. Navy, striving to enhance the health and well-being of aging dolphins.
C15 is like the superhero of essential nutrients, swooping in to save your cells from the ravages of time. By bolstering cell strength, ramping up mitochondrial function, and shielding your body from pesky free radicals, C15:0 sets the stage for better long-term metabolic, liver, and heart health.
Let’s face it: there’s a good chance you’re running on empty when it comes to essential fatty acids — the types of healthy fats your body cannot produce on its own and must be obtained through your diet.
Lacking these fats leaves your cells weak, your energy levels depleted, and your body aging faster than a not-so-fine wine. But fear not — Fatty15 is here to change that.
This science-backed, award-winning supplement is chock-full of pure, vegan-friendly C15, sourced from plants and free of any nasty additives. C15:0 is the ONLY ingredient in Fatty15, meaning it’s 100% pure and potent. Plus, it comes in eco-friendly packaging because saving the planet is just as important as saving your cells.
So, what are you waiting for? Say goodbye to sluggishness, bid adieu to aging woes, and welcome in a new era of vitality with Fatty15. Use code BEN here for 15% off a 90-day subscription to Fatty15.

Your Father’s Day Gift Guide Is Here! Elevate Dad’s Day with 12 Legendary Gifts for Health and Happiness
This year, I’m helping you ditch the usual ho-hum Father’s Day gifts (like a watch he’ll never wear, argyle socks, and yet another boring blue button-down shirt).
In my hot-off-the-press Father’s Day Gift Guide, you’ll discover gifts as epic and legendary as the dad in your life, tailored to his unique interests and passions.
Whether your dad is a fitness buff, an avid reader, or a tech enthusiast, this brand-new gift guide offers a unique selection that will make this Father’s Day truly unforgettable…
Here’s a sneak peek of a few highlights from this year’s gift guide:
- HygieneLab: Give him the gift of confidence and well-being from the inside out by enhancing the man in your life’s daily routine with premium, non-toxic personal care products. I love their toxin-free deodorants, face washes, hair care, and other products that leave me feeling refreshed and rejuvenated every day.
- Peluva Strands: Get ready to hear Dad’s praises after you upgrade his footwear game with these minimalist shoes that provide unmatched comfort and natural movement while protecting and strengthening his toes, knees, and hips. Whether I’m strolling through the airport, hitting the gym, or trekking on a hike, you’ll spot me sporting my Peluvas (they’re hard to miss with their distinctive, foot-like appearance).
- Maximus: I recommend this gift to ramp up Dad’s metabolism, help improve his body composition, and restore his vitality. Even better, Maximus helps boost his testosterone without the harmful effects of other T boosters like damage to his liver, kidneys, and testicular function.
- NADS: Upgrade Dad’s underwear game with NADS Organic Underwear, made without harmful chemicals and toxins. This gives Dad’s crown jewels the throne they deserve. Their comfort, fit, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing I’m not exposing my goods to harmful chemicals have made them an absolute game-changer for me.
- Lucy: Help Dad conquer his daily battles by gifting him Lucy’s cognitive-enhancing nicotine gum, providing a smart, safe way to improve his mental stamina and performance — without any nasty toxins. Lucy is my go-to whenever I need that extra afternoon boost or have a busy day of work or travel, keeping my mind sharp and focused.
These are just a few examples of the exciting gifts in my officially released Father’s Day Gift Guide that your Dad will love.
I’m also hooking you up with exclusive discounts and savings to make your gift-giving even more rewarding!

Never-Before-Seen Twist on One of My Favorite Boundless Chicken Recipes
