Available from:Details:- #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER: A groundbreaking manifesto on living better and longer that challenges the conventional medical thinking on aging and reveals a new approach to preventing chronic disease and extending long-term health, from a visionary physician and leading longevity expert
- "One of the most important books you'll ever read."—Steven D. Levitt, New York Times bestselling author of Freakonomics
- Wouldn't you like to live longer? And better? In this operating manual for longevity, Dr. Peter Attia draws on the latest science to deliver innovative nutritional interventions, techniques for optimizing exercise and sleep, and tools for addressing emotional and mental health.
- For all its successes, mainstream medicine has failed to make much progress against the diseases of aging that kill most people: heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. Too often, it intervenes with treatments too late to help, prolonging lifespan at the expense of healthspan, or quality of life. Dr. Attia believes we must replace this outdated framework with a personalized, proactive strategy for longevity, one where we take action now, rather than waiting.
- This is not "biohacking," it's science: a well-founded strategic and tactical approach to extending lifespan while also improving our physical, cognitive, and emotional health. Dr. Attia's aim is less to tell you what to do and more to help you learn how to think about long-term health, in order to create the best plan for you as an individual. In Outlive, readers will discover:
- Why the cholesterol test at your annual physical doesn't tell you enough about your actual risk of dying from a heart attack.
- That you may already suffer from an extremely common yet underdiagnosed liver condition that could be a precursor to the chronic diseases of aging.
- Why exercise is the most potent pro-longevity "drug"—and how to begin training for the "Centenarian Decathlon."
- Why you should forget about diets, and focus instead on nutritional biochemistry, using technology and data to personalize your eating pattern.
- Why striving for physical health and longevity, but ignoring emotional health, could be the ultimate curse of all.
- Aging and longevity are far more malleable than we think; our fate is not set in stone. With the right roadmap, you can plot a different path for your life, one that lets you outlive your genes to make each decade better than the one before.

For 2.99, there may be some value here but take everything with a grain of salt. Our understanding keeps changing with advances in science and Attia will go wherever the wind is currently blowing (TED talk / NuSi failed insulin hypothesis, extreme keto, intermittent fasting, rapamyacin/metformin beating death fantasy, and on and on).
Basically, Peter Attia is a way more sophisticated and nuanced version of David Sinclair whom I would consider a big fraud in the life extension industry.

if you watch him on youtube he uses arrogance to hide the fact he has no clue or real knowledge. the purpose of this book is just to extract money from simple minds.

I can't put this in words better than this.
Just live a healthy active lifestyle and you are set.
I have seen his videos.
He does like to promote products he's associated with in his videos and on his social media accounts, but if I recall the book is fairly benign with mostly common sense recommendations.
