What is C60?

C60 is an almost magical molecule of 60 carbon atom.

Carbon 60 (short form C60) is a form of carbon molecule made up of sixty carbon atoms all joined up together in a spherical structure that resembles a football.

It is the most powerful antioxidant known. It helps neutralise the toxic effects of the byproducts of cellular metabolism, which are responsible for worsening tissue injury and many diseases.

It occurs naturally and its beneficial properties appear to have been first recognised in shungite, a carbon based mineral substance which gets its name from the village of Shunga in Russia. Fullerenes are also found in small amounts in soot, charcoal or other carbon based ash. These fullerenes have been used to purify water and remove toxins.

C60 has an almost unlimited ability to neutralise harmful free radicals. Additionally it is able to bond with hydrogen atoms and so complement hydrogen water therapy and boost the positive effects of some foods. C60 can enter cell mitochondria where most oxidative stress originates.

The following list are some of the benefits that have been claimed.

It has been shown that C60 helps to –

  • Increase longevity
  • Improve skin complexion
  • Improve concentration
  • Improve eyesight
  • Increase stamina
  • Protect against free radicals
  • Reduce inflammation
  • Kill viruses
  • Reduce forms of arthritis
  • Improve obesity and metabolic syndrome
  • Kill bacteria
  • Protect against UV damage
  • Protects against electromagnetic (wifi) damage

C60 is almost insoluble in water but has a low solubility in olive oil and other vegetable oils. When it is dissolved in olive oil the body is able to absorb the C60. The beneficial effects noticed with C60 in olive oil may, in part, be due to substances such as polyphenols in the olive oil itself.

C60 Different Oils

You may wonder why there are different carrier oils available. This is purely to cater to people’s different tastes.

All the oils used are the highest of quality and have many benefits in their own right.

Vanessa’s review of C60

I heard about c60 from a friend, the claims sounded so amazing that I presumed they must be fraudulent.

I quickly began taking a teaspoon in the morning, an hour before my thyroid medication. Being a  carbon compound, similar to charcoal, then taking it with other medications or supplements would nullify their effects.

The first day I woke tired and groggy, took a teaspoon of c60 and within 5 minutes I was sharp minded. Hmm, placebo? Typically first thing,I, a person with hypothyroidism would usually take a while for the fog to lift. I felt like I had had my coffee and thyroxine, I had  had neither yet.

The pattern continued for the rest of the week, now to the extent where I question whether I need my mediation any more. I recently moved over to natural thyroid meds (a long story saved for another day), but I am due to get my thyroid checked ( so i will get back to you on that).

There have been many nights where I haven’t slept much, however after a swig of c60 I felt like I have slept 8 hours!

I wish I had had this as a professional athlete.

Additionally, as someone who carries the double alleal of the APOE4 gene ( early onset alzheimer’s) , when I heard Carboxyl C60 prevents nerve cells from dying by either dehydration or amyloid-beta (causes Alzheimer’s) and helped mice live 12 percent longer, I didn’t need much persuading. (To Note: lifestyle is far important than genetics, and that’s what people should know. I find it absurd when people are crying about this gene and sitting there obese with insulin resistance. It will only express itself in unhealthy circumstances ).

Gemma’s review of C60

You know how you hear of something once, then all of the sudden it seems to pop up everywhere? Well thats what happened to me with c60.

I heard about it at a talk with David Wolf, and a few days later, there it was again on instagram,  and soon after c60inoliveoil.com was recommended to me through a friend.

I started taking it not long after. I spoke to the Steve from c60inoliveoil.com, and was hooked before even starting to take it.

As Ness mentioned, it all seemed too good to be true…. Well let me tell you, for me its done what it says on the box.

My original dose was what they called loading up. And WOW did i notice a difference. My energy levels increased dramatically, and what i noticed the most was my skin. Many people began commenting how good my skin was, even without makeup.

After  a few weeks, i changed form the loading up does to the daily recommended dose (i do cheat a few days and have a bit more), even with the smaller dose i still feel a huge difference in my energy levels, for the better. My skin is still glowing, and i see more even skin tone. Not to mention small things My Restless leg syndrome has decreased dramatically.

Needless to say i’m hooked, i really think this will be the only supplement that i will keep as a constant in my life.
