For many of us who hunt and enjoy eating deer, elk, moose and bison among other ruminants, recent studies say besides eating a healthy muscle building protein, you get a longevity boost too. Yes, this is true!

This knowledge discovered by a US Navy study of aging in Dolphins has revealed that a special fat compound is linked to longevity, metabolic health, and resistance to age-related diseases.

Yes that’s right, a fat known as C15 or pentadecanoic acid is present in ruminant wild game meat and provides longevity benefits. 

Amounts of C15 can vary, however FYI you can take this C15 as a supplement too to increase longevity as we age.

Good Eating! Live Long and Hunt!
