Peter Attia | Outlive: The Science & Art of Longevity | Talks at Google

[@FitnessAndLongevityWithHan]

I discover Peter when I turned 50. I’m now just about to turn 54. I quit alcohol, have improved my Vo2 max and have the Hollywood body I always wanted. Thanks Peter 💪🏼

[@spencerdawson6536]

You discovered Peter at 50 and you thank him yet what’s the correlation between this discovery and the gains you’ve identified? I don’t see the connection especially considering you’ve been weight training since age 14.

[@Ash.Toronto]

Lol peter drinks alcohol everyday

[@Prodigious1One]

Great work!

[@scottclarkakamodeup9483]

I need to more deeply pursue removal of alcohol and his addressing of the biology, as well as Huberman’s work, push me more towards addressing the adult long “issue”.

[@scottclarkakamodeup9483]

He may drink but his work is useful for those who abuse through weekly, not daily, possible binges. As well as applicable to mental health issues. It’s not all or none! Not a need for a discussion here.

[@stefanciubuca2179]

So much respect for this man. Just ordered the book. Congrats for inviting such a great human.

Ty Google for covering the topic of longevity, one of my favourite future technologies ♥️

[@franciscogalan8017]

Summary of the talk (using AI tool, Recall, + Chat GPT): **Introduction of Dr. Peter Attia and His Work** Peter Attia, MD, founded Early Medical, a practice applying "Medicine 3.0" to lengthen both lifespan and healthspan (00:17). He earned his MD from Stanford and trained in surgery at Johns Hopkins (00:29). He hosts *The Drive* podcast and authored *Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity*, a #1 NYT bestseller (00:40). **Dr. Attia's Non-Traditional Path to Medicine** Initially aspiring to be a boxer, his math talent redirected him to engineering before pivoting to medicine (01:30-03:44). **The Concept of Longevity and Healthspan** "Medicine 3.0" emphasizes lifespan (years lived) and healthspan (quality of life: physical, cognitive, and emotional well-being). *Outlive* serves as a guide to actionable longevity practices (04:32-07:12). **The Four Horsemen of Death** Dr. Attia highlights four major health risks: cardiovascular/cerebrovascular diseases, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic diseases like type 2 diabetes, which amplify the others (09:11-10:32). **Training for the Marginal Decade and Centenarian Decathlon** He advocates "training" rather than "exercise" to maintain functionality into old age, focusing on daily and recreational activities people want to sustain (13:28-15:50). **Five Key Domains for Longevity** Success in aging depends on nutrition, exercise, sleep, emotional health, and exogenous molecules (16:09-17:47). **Nutrition and Energy Balance** The body’s resilience in processing energy underscores the importance of a balanced diet and sufficient protein intake for muscle and enzyme production (18:32-20:50). **The Importance of Exercise** Exercise significantly impacts lifespan and healthspan, with metrics like VO2 max and strength correlating with lower mortality rates (21:28-24:31). **Evaluating Supplements** Attia suggests focusing on deficit replacement over supernormal levels and stresses understanding supplements’ efficacy and safety before use (25:48-28:21). **Balancing Data with Intuition** Wearables and data tracking can help but aren't essential for everyone. Use tools wisely to inform, not dictate, decisions (28:52-32:20). **Prioritizing Time and Energy** Balancing work, family, and self-care is crucial, especially during the most productive and family-focused decades of life (33:03-35:28). **Emotional Health and Mortality** Emotional well-being can improve with age and is as important as physical and cognitive health (36:01-38:41). **Introspection, Self-Awareness, and Openness to Change** Personal growth requires recognizing mistakes, embracing change, and balancing preparation with luck in achieving longevity (39:10-40:20). **Updates and Insights Not Included in *Outlive*** Recent developments in longevity include reevaluating metformin for insulin resistance and GLP-1 agonists like semaglutide for weight loss and metabolic health (40:41-44:27). **The Obesity Crisis and Its Factors** The obesity epidemic (40% in the US) stems from multiple societal and biological factors. Solutions require cultural shifts and nuanced policy changes (44:51-48:35). **A Multifaceted Approach to Health and Longevity** Lifestyle changes and pharmacological interventions must complement each other for effective health improvement (49:13-49:49). **The Potential of AI in Healthcare** AI could revolutionize healthcare by reducing administrative burdens, improving drug discovery, and facilitating the transition to "Medicine 3.0" (50:06-53:17).

[@kbkesq]

Very cool thanks

[@orcanimal]

What's truly impressive is how many opportunities Peter has to answer a question with the basic grifter shtick or give a platitude answer yet he always gives a humble and honest response. His answer to the "what would you do if you were made healthcare administrator of the US" is prime example of that - (praphrasing) "I don't know, it's a really big probalm I'd probably spend 6 month putting my head down and just interviewing people, and maybe I'd try to focus on lowering healthcare costs." That is such a genuine answer and I can think of dozens of health/nutirition grifters who would've just spewed out some basic rhetoric.

[@kennyx8482]

i really like this man

Great to hear Peter speak he keeps it simple and he is so knowledgeable

Great to hear am extended interview from Peter. 🎉 Shame they didn't find a more qualified interviewer. 🤷‍♂️

[@nahoumabara3712]

I love this man yo

[@thefamily-lafamiglia7322]

I would love to know why someone as yung and "healty as you" is on pcsk9 inhibitor and zatia? Is your cholesterol that high? Your lifestyle alone is not helping ? I look into pcsk9 inhibitor for myself, but after extensive research, unless cholesterol levels are extremely high, it's not recommended. I should be able to bring my levels close to an acceptable range with my lifestyle changes. However, my small particles may still be little over the range. Therefore, I may take Zetia, which may be able to reduce small particles without lowering all the other levels drastically

[@WestCParallel49]

Does anyone have a link or reference to the science article that Peter was referencing? Had to do with human extinction, and it was referenced around the eight minute mark. Thanks.

[@getstarted7168]

8:00 Wow! Listen

[@me-lg1yw]

I feel like I have watched this already. When was this recorded? Is this a repost from somewhere else?

Enlighten us. Why do I need to google some info I have no interest in? You have something to say - just say it

[@SgtSam1]

Robert Kennedy loves surrounding himself with guys like Dr. Attia. I’m sure they’ve crossed paths before. Hopefully, the can connect and Dr. Attia can have some influence on the new HHS secretary

[@Malavander]

I think "will power" is way more genetic than he even lets on.

[@Re3iRtH]

And the funny thing is, Peter will statistically live to 90 whether he exercises or not (due to his socioeconomic status, which has the greatest effect anyway)

[@bennguyen1313]

More AI on the service side, and more AI on the administrative side.. I think AI is like stem-cells and ball-bearings, you can use them just about anywhere! According to Radiolab episode "Body Count", the world reached 1B people in the early 1800s.. then 8B in people in 2022.. and a total of over 100B that have ever lived. Regarding the centenarian-decathalon, I've been training for the sedentarian-decathalon! If the past is any predictor, maybe I won't be doing much activity in the last decade either. Regarding the 41m mark on how metformin elevates lactate in the liver (not in muscle as previously thought), and how diabetes has increased 1% a year for the last 10 years... would have liked to have heard more about the rise in autoimmune disorders.. the off label use of low dose naltrexone sounds promising! Any other exogenous non-food molecules (drugs , supplements hormones) like Rituximab? I've heard it said that administrative overhead is between 15% and 25% of the 4.5T spent on healthcare. A third is Drug and device? The US spends 20% on healthcare, which by comparison, is almost double paid by single payer systems worldwide. Would have liked to have heard more about the electronic medical record (EMR) : reconciliation adjudication charting / medication reconciliation documentation?

I thought his name was Atilla, my mistake. Although he looks like him ( as far as I know). And he talks as fast as Atilla must have rode his horse, as it seems without any clear direction accept forward. But if he can add years to his live that will be a tremendous extra amount of (meaningless?) words coming out of his mouth.

[@kbkesq]

Like him but my biggest gripe with the health podcasters is they didn’t speak out against the covid vaccines. Especially for people under 50 but when you get under 30 years old it really was more harm than good by a large margin. They didn’t protect against infection other than perhaps 2 months then failed. Peter is speaking to a room full of vaxxed, boosted woke people who care about their health and thought they were doing the right thing to trust the science. Peter and huberman Rhonda Patrick all moved on.

[@AesthMed]

Nobody cares man that was 5 years ago. Move on.
