A ground-breaking manifesto from a visionary physician and renowned longevity specialist that defies accepted medical wisdom on aging and offers a fresh strategy for prolonging long-term health and avoiding chronic illness
"Among the most significant books you will ever read"—Steven D. Levitt, author of Freakonomics, a New York Times bestseller
Do you not want to live a longer life? And superior? Dr. Peter Attia uses the most recent scientific research to provide cutting-edge dietary therapies, methods for maximizing exercise and sleep, and resources for dealing with emotional and mental health in this operational handbook for longevity.
Despite its achievements, conventional medicine has not made significant strides in treating the age-related illnesses that account for the majority of deaths: cancer, heart disease, Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. Too often, it intervenes with therapies that are too late to be beneficial, extending life expectancy at the price of healthspan or life quality. According to Dr. Attia, we need to replace this antiquated paradigm with a customized, proactive approach to longevity—one in which we act now, rather than waiting.
This is science, not "biohacking"; it's a well-reasoned tactical and strategic approach to prolonging life and enhancing our mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Dr. Attia's goal is to teach you how to think about long-term health so that you may design the optimal plan for yourself, rather than just giving you instructions. Readers of Outlive will learn:
Why The reason your yearly physical's cholesterol test doesn't provide you with adequate information about your true risk of passing away from a heart attack.
• That a very common, but underdiagnosed, liver issue you may currently have might be a prelude to aging-related chronic illnesses.
• The reasons why physical activity is the most effective pro-longevity "drug" and how to start preparing for the "Centenarian Decathlon."
• The reasons for putting nutritional biochemistry first and disregarding diets in favor of customizing your eating habits using data and technology.
• Why focusing on physical well-being and longevity at the expense of mental well-being may be the worst curse of all.
Contrary to popular belief, aging and lifespan are far more flexible; our destiny is not predetermined. You may design an alternative course for your life, one that allows you to outlast your genes and improve every decade with the correct roadmap.
