OUTLIVE

Peter Attia Bill Gifford

The Science and Art of Longevity

Attia, a leading physician in the field of longevity, has written a groundbreaking manifesto on living better that challenges the conventional medical thinking on aging and reveals an unorthodox approach to treating chronic diseases and extending long-term health.
Longevity expert Dr. Peter Attia proposes an exciting reinvention of Western medicine that reframes our thinking on longevity. Our current system operates using a method that Dr. Attia calls Medicine 2.0, in which we reactively treat diseases and their symptoms, often too late to affect length and quality of life. However, OUTLIVE proposes Medicine 3.0, a paradigm shift in this conventional mindset that examines current scientific evidence and reassess our daily habits to customize a proactive personal strategy to live better, longer.

Most physicians are interested in improving lifespan, but Dr. Attia's plan also focuses on improving healthspan, the quality of your cognitive, physical, and emotional health. Through cutting-edge nutritional interventions, exercise and sleep physiology, and emotional and mental health strategies, Dr. Attia offers a bold strategic and tactical approach for change in which you'll discover:
- Why your "normal" blood test results are oversimplified to the point of uselessness
- It pays to focus on nutritionally biochemistry, not diet--and use cutting-edge technology to determine the right eating pattern for you
- Exercise is proving to be the most potent longevity "drug." But some types are more effective than others.
- You may already suffer from an extremely common, undiagnosed liver condition that could be a precursor to the chronic diseases of aging.

Just as Tim Ferriss's 4-Hour Workweek changed our perception of work, or James Clear's Atomic Habits altered the way we improve our productivity. OUTLIVE and Peter Attia are going to revolutionize the way we approach our health with this simple, tangible operating manual for the practice of longevity.

Peter Attia, MD, is a physician focusing on the applied science of longevity, with a practice that deals extensively with interventions to increase lifespan and healthspan. He trained for five years at the Johns Hopkins Hospital in general surgery, where he was the recipient of several prestigious awards, including resident of the year, and the author of a comprehensive review of general surgery.

Dr. Peter Attia is my doctor and also my friend. He is a specialist in longevity and someone I trust with my life.

Finally, there is a modern, thorough, clear, and actionable manual for how to maximize our immediate and long-term health. Firmly grounded in data and real-life conditions, Outlive makes obvious which actions we all need to take, and just as important, what all we need to pay attention to in order to live a long, vital life. As the most accurate and comprehensive health guide published to date, Outlive is not just informative, it is important.

In Outlive, Peter Attia explores the science of not just prolonging life, but also prolonging aliveness. Attia makes the crucial connection between overall health and relational health.

Outlive completely transformed my approach to growing old. Peter Attia is among the most brilliant people I've ever met, and he's succeeded in packing a life's worth of insights into this book. It promises to be one of the most important books you'll ever read.

Attia's acknowledgement that diets aren't one-size-fits-all is a welcome departure from the overgeneralizations of similar volumes, and he provides recommendations on modulating protein, fat, and carbohydrate intake depending on one's age, sex, and activity levels. The familiar suggestions to reduce stress, eat healthier, and exercise are elevated by the depth of detail and lucid prose that Attia brings to the table. This stands a notch above other fare aimed at boosting health and longevity. Read more...
