2023 Outlive: The Art and Science of Living Longer (Paperback)
Do you wish you could live longer? And superior? Dr. Peter Attia presents cutting-edge nutritional interventions, strategies for maximizing exercise and sleep, and tools for addressing emotional and mental health in this operating manual for longevity, which draws on the most recent research. Despite its successes, mainstream medicine has not done much to combat the majority of people's fatal aging diseases: Alzheimer's disease, diabetes type 2, and heart disease. Too frequently, it intervenes with treatments that do not work until too late, extending lifespan at the expense of quality of life or health. Dr. Attia is of the opinion that this out-of-date framework needs to be replaced with a customized, proactive strategy for longevity, one in which we take action right away rather than waiting. This is science, not "biohacking," a well-thought-out strategy and tactical plan for extending our lives and enhancing our mental, physical, and emotional well-being at the same time. Dr. Attia doesn't want to tell you what to do; rather, he wants to help you learn how to think about your long-term health so that he can make the best plan for you. Readers of Outlive will discover: - Why your annual cholesterol test doesn't give you enough information about your actual risk of dying from a heart attack.
- That you may already be afflicted with a liver condition that is extremely prevalent but undiagnosed and may serve as a forerunner to more serious aging-related conditions.
- Why exercise is the most effective "drug" for increasing longevity and how to start training for the "Centenarian Decathlon."
- Why you should focus on nutritional biochemistry rather than diets and use technology and data to tailor your eating habits.
- Why it could be the greatest curse of all to strive for physical health and longevity while neglecting emotional health. Life expectancy and aging are much more adaptable than we realize; Our destiny is not fixed. You can create a new life path that allows you to outlive your genes and makes each decade better than the one before it with the right roadmap.
