THE NEW MEDICINE FOR A LONGER AND BETTER LIFE A NEW APPROACH TO LONGEVITY AND LONG-TERM GOOD HEALTH THAT CHALLENGES CONVENTIONAL MEDICAL THINKING Despite the great successes medicine has achieved in many areas, the reality is that its advances in the fight against age-related diseases are not as numerous. Often, medical interventions and treatments offer patients more years of life, but at the cost of their health or quality of life. For this reason, Attia advocates leaving behind this outdated framework and opting for a proactive and personalized longevity strategy, focused on acting now instead of waiting. In this innovative manifesto on how to live better for longer, Dr. Peter Attia—currently one of the most prominent experts in longevity—proposes nutritional actions, techniques to optimize physical exercise and sleep, and tools to improve emotional and mental health that will change our lives. THE BEST MEDICAL SCIENCE TO PROLONG LIFE AND IMPROVE PHYSICAL, COGNITIVE, AND EMOTIONAL HEALTH In Outlive, you will discover, among many other things: - Why exercise is the most powerful drug against aging.
- Why you should focus on nutritional biochemistry and use technology and medical data to personalize your eating patterns, instead of sticking to strict diets.
- Why it is essential to take care of emotional health in addition to physical health. When he was in his early thirties, Dr. Peter Attia was a marathon swimmer, crossing ocean passages like the Catalina Channel. However, he had no idea that his health was surprisingly fragile or that he was at risk of dying prematurely from heart disease. That discovery prompted him to investigate how and why we die, and how it is possible to delay or even prevent the most lethal chronic diseases, such as heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's, and type 2 diabetes. In this revolutionary work, Dr. Attia teaches us to think about long-term health and to create the best plan for each of us. Life expectancy and health are much more malleable than we think, so we all have the possibility of charting a life path that allows us to exceed our expectations and make each decade better than the last.
