Attia's restraint in terms of not commenting on things that are outside of his lane, especially from other podcast guests, is pretty admirable. It's much of why I take him more seriously than other guys in this space.

I am part of 5000 other physicians who are reversing the cost of healthcare. We are called "direct primary care" physicians and high level healthcare does not have to cost a fortune. For less than the cost of a phone bill per month you can get same or next day appointments, hour long visits, a no-wait waiting room, at-cost labs, wholesale medications, text your doctor, and have a true conversation about your medical concerns. This is not corporate bs, but a revolution.

[@thomabow8949]

Do you ever regret entering medicine as a career? Anything you'd have done differently, or differently during the process of becoming one?

Primary Care is not the problem but rather the specialists which costs a whole lot.

At first I did regret it then I went into direct primary care and don't have to deal with insurance anymore. So it's much better. Nothing I would've done differently except keep my expectations of medical school and residency much lower. @@thomabow8949

This is the best interview I've heard with Dr. Attia. Chris goes down rabbit holes with Attia but then re-emerges before completely nerding out and losing laymen. Chris also manages to get Attia to relax and even laugh a little. It's a different side of Attia. I've heard Attia on other podcasts before, but I never managed to get through an entire episode because it was a little too dry. It felt like eating oatmeal. This was much better than eating oatmeal. Congratulations on an excellent interview, Chris!

[@undecidedstate3972]

The point about talking to yourself as if they were someone else really hits home for me. I had a triple bypass last year and everyone (even my Doctors) remarked at how well I took everything and how I so calmly approached everything. It was literally because throughout the whole ordeal I approached it as if I were someone else, coaching someone like myself through this. So what might have been an overwhelming emotional journey, ended up being much easier to go through as I was able to create a bit of mental distance from the situation and look at everything more calmly.

[@federoffm]

Chris, this episode was quite powerful, particularly near the end as you both start to explore bigger questions of meaning. You've stated that you hope to have a family. I hope this comes to pass for you. I've had great professional success across multiple careers. It all pales in comparison to my 33-year marriage and eleven children. Marriage and family is the hardest...and most meaningful...undertaking a man can do. I never wake up wondering if my life has meaning and purpose. Cheers!

[@Lisa_LaCroix]

What a beautiful and wise man is Peter Attia. His answer about aging and the importance and value of being a good person and less selfish was not only articulate but also such an illustration of the gift of aging. It’s so interior see how it kind of goes right past Chris in a way. There is experience in aging that you just can’t really get when you’re in different stages of life.

If you spend your life worrying about how to boost longevity you’ll forget to live. Here, you don’t need a 3 hour podcast. Do these, be consistent. 1. Eat healthy most of the time. 80-20 rule. 2. Exercise often (do something you enjoy, like a sport, or walk with someone) 3. Have fun with friends and family, get out of your house. Go do something, go out to dinner. 4. Keep learning new things. 5. Get 8 hours of sleep every night 6. If you feel like shit, do things for other people. Offer to help people, expect nothing in return. 7. Spend time with your parents while they’re still here. 8. Get off your phone, especially short form content its like a cancer.

[@martinepeters9891]

Of course I have a bit of time every day, but they should think about a 3,5 hour podcasts. As a productive person, I don't have time to listen (and I already listen to shit while working out, while commuting and while cleaning the house). I'm 10 minutes in, and it's just more of the same redundant BS being told. A lot of redundancy.

[@selwrynn6702]

I am not a US healthcare expert, my parents worked in the industry but in the IT side of it, still they pick up some stuff. There are myriad issues with our system, some of the larger ones are 1. the US citizen subsidizes the medicine costs of the rest of the world, other countries have put price caps on medicine costs which causes the US citizen to be required to foot the bill as the big pharma corps (as much as I loath them and their medicines are doing more harm than good in many cases) need to make a profit and the costs to develop new drugs are incredibly costly (of course if the little guy attempts to replicate the behavior of these big corporations, well you see what they did to Martin Shkreli) and 2. the other really big issue is how the insurance system functions, as Peter says at the start here, the people who can't afford coverage are covered by the state funded scheme of Medicare or Medicaid (one is for poor people the other is for old people I forget which is which) the people who can afford it take the hit but can recover, its the people in the middle & lower middle class that really get hosed by the system, when the whole Obama care thing went through my Aunt was paying 200% more for the same coverage. It's kinda wild when the Doctor hands you a bill and its like $3000 but you tell him you don't have insurance and they go "oh" and change the math so your bill goes down to like $300, because if the hospital knows the insurance will cover it they will inflate their prices so they can get money from both the government and the insurance companies. It's really pretty gross as you have the government, the hospital & the insurers all basically screwing the citizens in their own unique ways, but it goes back to that old saying right? Fast, Free, Good. You can only ever have 2 of the 3, America chose Fast and Good which is why our healthcare is the best but also incredibly expensive, Canada instead chose Free and Good which is why you see month long waits for procedures, the UK did similar to Canada but at this point due to hiring policies and immigration issues the NHS has gone down the toilet severely, recently there was a Twitter controversy where people came out and were saying that they did their immigrant parent's tests for their parents to become doctors in the NHS so you have now a bunch of highly unqualified people in there in addition to like 3x the number of people who need the service, if trends continue the UK will become a giant healthcare system with a tiny country attached, it's wild over there. Something like more immigrants have come to Britain between 1997 and 2020 than had between 1066 and 1997 (funny how the housing crisis began in 1997 too but I'm sure there is no correlation. Back to the topic of healthcare though, the Americans also get screwed on the other end as well as our taxes are used to fund the creation of drugs as well, so we pay to develop the drugs then we also pay to subsidize the costs of those drugs for the rest of the world.

[@polysaturated]

The US isn’t subsidizing the drugs for the rest of the world, the pharmaceutical companies still make a profit anywhere they sell their drugs. I’m pretty sure they won’t lower prices if other countries paid more, they would just raise executive compensation and buy back more stock. Countries with a large single-payer system are usually in a better negotiating position.

I don't know if you've had an episode highlighting it but I'd love it if you could dedicate an episode to your current diet revolving around that and bringing on an expert in that space to discuss. 👏

[@terabyter9000]

Yep I learned the hard way that I cannot workout EVERY day and not eventually have a major injury (for me it was muscle knots in the back that were painful for a month and a half and it screwed up my perfect exercise track record). So now I have the wisdom to not overdo it and to make sure I have a rest day between muscle groups or else suffer the consequences. The pain was hard. Losing my perfect record and motivation hurts more. Need to get back on track.

[@marekzee]

Regarding the American health care system, Dr. Attia should have explained the following: The ridiculous pricing in medicine in the US is due to lawyers (lawsuits, increased cost), government restrictions on competition and most importantly subsidies to those who are uninsured or under-insured. Hospitals charge $6000 for a short 24-hour stay because they are forced to take in anyone regardless of insurance coverage or ability to pay. For example, there are 8 million illegal immigrants who came in to this country just in the last 3 years and most of them do not have any medical coverage or ability to pay. They are still seen by the ERs and the hospitals are required by law to provide medical care. Also, the government coverage (medicare and medicaid) does not even come close to paying for the full price of the procedures and doctors and hospitals are forced to charge other patients ridiculous prices to make up for the differences. Dr. Attia should have also explained to Chris that there is definitely a social safety net in the US. I have lived in the US for over 40 years now and have been very poor early in my life and always had medical care. Also, no one that I have known in that 40+ years in the US has ever not been able to get medical care or was ruined financially by it. Most working individuals either have insurance coverage through their employer or they pay for their private insurance (or a combination of both). Those who only work part-time, go to school, are retired or earn very little are always covered by a combination of federal and/or state coverage (medicare and/or medicaid). The only way you can really get hurt financially by medical costs in the US is if you have a median or higher income and don't have coverage through your employer and choose not to get your own insurance coverage. In that way, it's similar to car insurance. If you choose to drive and not get car insurance then you may end up losing everything and go bankrupt if an accident should occur.

The "Revolving Door" problem renders regulation as mostly ineffectual in the US. What we DO need is healthy competition and a realignment of incentives.

Really would like to know what explains his stance on Bryan Johnson. He obviously has disqualified him as believable or trustworthy, I wonder what his reasoning is.

[@thomabow8949]

It's mildly interesting; both Attia and Johnson are evidently operating their businesses/practices with a profit motive, not that it is exactly unethical in any terms for this, but both operate in the space of longevity (that is, preventative medicine on Attia's side and both preventative and elongation efforts on Johnson's side) and are somewhat competitors I suppose. However, Attia is a physician and commands a stronger understanding and communication regarding the existing medical literature whereas Johnson's content is more surrounding the aesthetic of it with casual references to biomarkers. Perhaps Attia views it as a vain practice given his perspective of longevity. I would make the conjecture that Johnson's movement falls far too inline with not overly rigorously backed by medical science and in the camp of biohacking.

[@charlotteruse8718]

There's a big doctor shortage in the US. In many communities the Urgent Care Clinics are stocked with nurse practitioners and "no" physicians. The only criteria is that a doctor must own the clinic. Usually if you see a physician he's from India, Asia, or Africa and when speaking their accent is so thick you can barely understand what they're saying. My point, is that the quality of medical care a person receives in the US is geographically specific. And my second point, is that super-smart students in US universities are no longer interested in practicing medicine and if they do it's only in highly affluent neighborhoods.

[@BuckFieri]

With modafinil, I get the best results when I have a planned day and stay focused. I get that rushed feeling when I’m thinking on my toes or have an unusual interaction, but if I’m steady at work in a comfortable environment I have great focus and stamina for mental work. The only other “side-effect” is that the increased focus can be a detriment if that focus goes toward a distraction from what I should be doing. Once I learned that aspect of the drug it became easier to manage with discipline. Repeated use effects my sleep too much to be worth the benefits, so I only use it on occasion (~5 times a year). The 200mg pills are almost always too much for me, so I typical split it in half or even into a quarter.

Use to manufacture Trazadone and was always told it was an anti-depressant but people that didn’t like Ambien could be prescribed it for sleep. We made it quite often so apparently it was prescribed quite often.

2:30:33 Urgh, this is what it's like in perimenopause. 😫 It is honestly so distressing to lose mental sharpness and to find yourself searching for words and names that should instantly spring to mind. It's scary when you don't even realise what is happening - loads of women are in perimenopause for a long while before it's diagnosed. Thinking you have early onset dementia is terrifying. (Thank God for HRT).
