Description
C60, or Carbon 60, is a recently discovered fullerene made up of 60 carbon atoms that form a structure that looks like a hollow soccer ball. Due to the unique bonding within this structure, C60 interacts with free radicals in the environment creating a surprisingly powerful and non-toxic superconductive antioxidant. The health molecule that Buckminster Fuller predicted had to exist was discovered two years after his death. The three scientists who found it won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. C60 is reported to reduce the effects of aging, increase lifespan, reduce pain and inflammation and power up the immune system. Carbon 60 can be found in nature; it precedes life on Earth. In fact, C60 may be the foundational building block that supported the formation of the DNA double helix molecule. C60t is produced in the atmospheres of stars, meteor impacts and during lightning strikes. Knowing our bodies are Carbon-based and that we are over 23% Carbon, the importance of C60 is readily evident.
