That's wonderful. I'm 74 and in very good shape (great shape for my age). I do much of what you do but I'm fully committed to supplemental and pharmaceutical assistance. I take cholesterol and BP meds from my doctor but I've also gone rogue and take metformin and low dose naltrexone without her "approval" although she doesn't object. I also take OTC supplements GlyNac (glycine and NAC separately) and for muscle building (not what you think) creatine and taurine. And I still take a lesser course of the Covid vitamins and supplements (zinc, etc) I take some of these things even though there aren't yet long term, randomized, double blind studies. So I'm rolling the dice because I don't have the years left in me to wait. So I listen to Dr Attia and others I believe are credible and not out for the money. I lost 20 lbs over the past year and now my BMI is in the normal range. Yesterday I used the fancy scale in my fancy gym to measure various body metrics and started a spreadsheet to track it. I'll do that every month.

You will be active in your eighties. I play pickleball with a guy who is 89. Unlike Dr. Attia, I believe that nutrition is critically important. The best way to ward off the metabolic syndrome diseases (cancer, heart disease, diabetes, etc...) is with a plant-dominant diet. There is tons of research on this which the doctor chooses to ignore.

[@elenalatici9568]

Absolutely right. And...it will never happened. I don't completely understand the reason for that, although it obviously has to do with money. One example: A woman has been paying a hefty sum of money for health insurance, and when I say hefty, it means having to give up things that promote good health. She l to swim, but can't afford the gym membership..Fast forward a few years. This woman gets breast cancer. She believes her insurance company will pay for treatment, but she would be wrong. The insurance comb through her health records in order to find a loop hole. Turns out the woman, years ago, in her 20's, or even teens, saw a dermatologist for acne, but never thought to put it on the list of illness or conditions she's had.The company tells her she lied on her application nullifying the contract. In spite of paying 1000's of dollars over many years, she is denied treatment and dies. The insurance company keeps the 1000's without having to pay out one cent. This is a true story. It happened to a dear friend of mine. Insurance companies are protected professional thieves.

(which is horrendously wrongly placing burdens on the ppl who cannot afford the burden, ie ppl who are under the median income levels of most cities, e.g.). The political stress over past one or two yrs has also utterly jacked stress levels for ppl who were accustomed to freedoms of various types: freedom to not worry about your gay friends being harassed (i have a transexual friend whose been that way for thirty yrs, born a woman), freedom from judgemental or religious ppl harassing librarians to remove books.

Life and your body is mysterious. You could tick all these boxes and put yourself in a special incubator and still get cancer or other diseases. Its why you see some people smoke or be obese all their lives and live to be 90 while a healthy young professional athlete or a 3 year old kid might die with no logical explantion and saying that they were "lucky" or "unlucky" is not a logial explanation. The explanation is that life is mysterious. But we humans need to know and control everything. If you do want to control something, you be better off investing your time in learning on how to be happy while you are given the grace to be on this earth than worrying on how to stay longer on it. Now that is time well spent because its plain to see that the vast majority of people havent even a nodding acquaintance about being truly happy in the here and now. That people are even worrying and trying to control what is coming down the road for them even shows that they are not happy with the here and now. And Dr. Peter Attia has taught me one thing as well from listening to him.....not to trust him. In a recent utube interview with Chris Williamson he was asked about his extreme intermittent fasting. He said he doesn't do it anymore and no longer finds it beneficial. That was a serious red flag for me in that a guy once advocated this and people had followed it and now he has dropped it because it wasn't benefical.....so people starved themselves for nothing!!. Likewise in another interview, he was asked about a certain exercise that he had advocated to do years ago and he don't do that anymore either. So the goal posts can easily changes in this guys world which means that you can buy that book that you bought and go off on your merry way and be practising some of that stuff but you could be wasting your time.

My body weight averaged 200 lbs before I followed Dr. Peter Attia's videos on the ketogenic diet. I ended that diet due to a downward trend in my lean body mass. I have recovered some back despite being in the age group with issues of sarcopenia. Time will determine if lean mass and resistance training for maintaining strength benefit longevity.

What he says is not new. But he has a compelling way of presenting it. Sadly, the vast majority of Americans want a pill or quick fix, and aren't willing to put in the time & effort. That's why I got out of primary care and went into sports medicine. My life is too valuable to waste it trying to convince people to do what's right. In primary care you're begging people to get off the couch and get moving. In sports medicine I'm begging people to STOP moving so that they can heal!😆 I'd much rather deal with the latter! Personally, I'm 63, and I'm hitting personal bests in some of my lifts. I lift hard 4 days a week and do cardio 2 days a week. I practice what I preach as a physician.

What amazing timing ~ To see this interview. It's so reinforcing! I'm 71and spouse is 75. We just had our first brush with a life threatening episode. My husband had a heart attack three days ago. This happened when I was 200 miles away on a solo trip so he was home alone. He was in and out of the hospital in 30 hours with two stents added to his medical physical profile now. . We've always been active, he was a distance runner in his youth, changed to walks in his 60's and I've always been a walker not a runner for my fitness . We both have family history of ancestors with heart attacks & strokes so our life choices for dietary health and exercise has been intentional. Yesterday we did a shorter walk just to 'test the system' so to speak so it was on the flat for just a little more than 1.5 miles. ( Luckily no major tissue damage was done, so a full recovery of activity is expected.) The big difference right now for us is the emotional impact! The ambulance was within a few minutes reach to intervene right away. Next week we had a hunting trip on the calendar where he would have been in the woods, out of cell coverage and there's no way I could have carried him out on my own! These are the things that now cause us to think about it differently. Maybe once we get passed this a bit well find a way to balance the risk and benefit of our activities. We've always done back country/into nature activities. Time will tell. We softened our MO a year ago and bought a travel trailer so we could continue getting out there without ask the heavy work of tent and camp gear set up. Perhaps well just explore getting a satellite phone coverage plan for our deep woods trips. (Just noticed my profile photo... I was only 60 at that time😄)

Long ago, over 1050 years ago, Dr Sina in Persia was teaching n practicing medicine, even performing surgeries, considering the whole person... Mind, body, emotions, soul... to find out which aspects of the client were CAUSING the condition. He was looking for the Cause, to eliminate, treat, etc... not MANAGE the condition, often meaning use of man made drugs. While my doctors in German speaking countries where more inclined to a Wholistic approach to diagnosis n solutions, my doctors in two English speaking countries I've lived long in, are totally focused on the body alone...to the extent that they don't even consider nerves, stress, n environment as contributing to the condition. Emotions, thoughts, n soul or spirituality helping to be in tune with our soul and Inner Source are actually Causing our body to be sick or in pains. The body doesn't get sick by itself. Drinking, smoking, unhealthy life style, are because of worries, fear, stress, n nerves sensitivity...leading to poisoning our body, mind, emotions, n soul more. A vicious circle...WE CARE MORE ABOUT OUR PETS EMOTIONS THAN PPL! Thank you for touching this very important point, which needs to be thought in our medical schools.

Have a great life, enjoy it to the fullest. Be who your dog thinks you are. The biggest fear we all have is losing our marbles. The two biggest factors for that are genetics and age. You cannot change the first, and your risk magnifies with each year after about 75. By age 95, the number of people still holding most of their marbles is not that large. So living longer may not be worth it. I think my relatives who suffered for a short time and kicked off in their 70s suffered less than my mother and her sister, who lived at least 10 years in progressively declining health and abilities.

The French diver/explorer/Titanic expert who died in the submersible that imploded was not a young man. His daughter said he died the way he would have wanted to, doing what he loved. Not in a nursing home suffering mental deterioration.

A lot of us never had their marbles, so try not to act like it's a fate worse than death...

Adventists have a high rate of centurions and they live a healthier lifestyle and have a faith. You can live a longer healthier age if you exercise, eat healthy, drop the junk food, get rest, and drink water. National Geographic did an article on them.

The secret to longevity: A cheerful mind, a light diet, regular work and rest, suitable exercise, a good environment, mountains and rivers, accompanied by a good person, a comfortable and restrained sex life is also very important! No long-term smoking of marijuana, dependence on tobacco and alcohol, bad habits of excessive overdraft of electronic products! Oriental Chinese Medicine Story: Wei Wendi Cao Pi asked Hua Tuo, who was the most famous at that time: "The three brothers in your family are all good at medical skills and are famous doctors in the world. So, if you were divided into siblings, who has the highest medical skills?" Hua Tuo said, "The three of us have our own research focus and strengths, but in terms of medical skills, the eldest brother is the best, the second brother is the second, and I am the worst one." When King Wen heard this, he was very puzzled, so he asked again: "But, you are a well-known miracle doctor in the whole country! Their reputation is obviously not as good as yours. So since your medical skills are not as good as theirs, why are you the most famous? Is it not worthy of the name? " Hua Tuo explained calmly: "Brother treats diseases mainly before the onset of the disease, because most people don't know that he can eradicate the disease beforehand, so his reputation cannot be spread, only our family knows. The second elder brother mainly treats diseases at the beginning of the disease. Most people think that he can only treat mild diseases, so his reputation is only spread in the village. And I, Hua Tuo, treated the most serious diseases when they were the most serious. Most people saw that I could perform major operations and bring them back to life. Therefore, they thought that my medical skills were superb, and my reputation naturally spread all over the country. " This story looks like it has nothing to do with human nature, but let me change the analogy: Mr. A is a propagandist who promotes anti-fraud knowledge. He always promotes anti-fraud knowledge in places where fraud has not yet occurred, but in the eyes of everyone, he is too wordy to make people feel irritated and even make people feel that he is selling anxiety. Fear, people here think they are extremely smart. How could it be easily scammed? ! Mr. B freezes other people's accounts to prevent others from losing money when there is a fraud and is about to trade. But this is also an annoying guy in the eyes of others because he prevents the opportunity to "make big money" for those who indulge in traps and scammers Mr. C is a debt collector who recovers losses for others after the fraud has occurred, in order to collect a certain percentage of returns. So in the eyes of others, Mr. C is the savior who saved their economic losses. The reason why it is difficult to be a good person. It is because the bad is chasing the good. In my opinion Mr. C is the most insidious. He watched people being cheated but did not act. Instead, he waited until someone came to ask him to make a final decision, thus gaining rewards and fame. In the long run, there will be fewer and fewer people who stop crime, and more and more people who wait to commit crimes. Good people will be driven away. Governing a big country is like cooking a small dish, and a genius doctor specializes in treating diseases that may occur with a high probability in the future. Just like a sentence in the Tao Te Ching, "The highest goodness is like water, water moistens all things without fighting, and deals with the evil of others, so it is more than Tao." TCM emphasizes prevention over cure! Emphasis on "prevention before illness, timely treatment to prevent deterioration, and prevention of recurrence after recovery" Any food in nature is a medicinal material, and Jinshi Cordyceps flowers and trees are all medicines! You need to be cautious about your diet, the best for your body is the best!

Diet & exercise is a major ingredient for good health but very few incorporate sleep in with their goal. The amount of sleep a person gets is so,so important. You can be skinny, fit , in shape and still look older than dirt without a sufficient amount of sleep. I seen it in young and old people. Folks look stressed when they don’t get enough good sleep.

I’d love to talk to this doctor. I may be able to shed some light on aging. I’m 70. People think I’m 50. I don’t know for sure, but I think I’ve found a secret formula to reversing the aging process. I’m getting younger. I have a concoction of supplements and herbs and vitamins that I came across by accident. I know, I know… it sounds crazy. But if I sent you before and after photos you’d be shocked. I need to write a book. But I need to write it with Dr. Attia or Dr. Huberman, or both. I go to the gym. I meditate. I think positive thoughts. My hair is growing in thicker. My skin is youthful. I’m very flexible.

[@pacummiskey]

Yes, it does sound crazy. And I don't mean to offend, but you look your age to me. So, unless you are a scientist who has sound data on the benefits of your "concoction," I would suggest you keep it to yourself. Glad you're feeling good about yourself, though.

We are way out of line with the proper use of antibiotics prescription to avoid chronic diseases of bacterial infections like arthritis dementia AFib MS ALS and scleroderma. These are the effects of bacterial infections without treatment.

[@markcampbell7577]

You should never have an antibiotic prescription that is less than 15 days and 21 is a safe round number to assure that you have healed before the antibiotics prescription ended. Then you need to repeat this treatment again in 3 to 5 years to avoid MS AFib arthritis or dementia from chronic bacterial infection.
