      Could you do yourself a real big favour and stop using The Name of The Lord Jesus Christ in the place of a swear word or to show your shock.
      Or at least let's see you being an equal opportunity blasphemer, let's see you replace The Name of Jesus with Mohamed, but you wouldn't dare would you, and yet you find it a small thing to use The Name of Jesus in such a derogatory manner.
      Why is that?
      Perhaps you should ask yourself that question, why do I find it easy and no big thing to deride The Christian God but I wouldn't dare do it for fear of offending any other religion?

    My dad had open heart, a triple bypass at 63. He was told he had 10 decent years. He began to walk, eat only fruit in the am and then loved his wheat germ, a drop of molasses and oatmeal, or soup for lunch and ate very little at night. In fact, his portions were always small. His only sweet was a little piece of dark chocolate at night with a tiny glass of his love, whole milk. He died of covid at 93 in 2021. Sadly he begged my mom to stop smoking. She did but the damage was too far. He missed her terribly for about 5 years. She passed at 84 though. I think of how long she could have lived had she not smoked. A month before he passed he said she appeared to him, as if floating in the dining room. Makes one ponder.

    25:07: 📚 The author discusses the importance of emotional health in longevity and shares his personal realization about his own misery.
    32:04: 😔 Many people have maladaptive behaviors in response to trauma, which can be more than just abuse. The speaker went through intensive therapy to overcome shame and self-loathing.
    51:09: 💡 The speaker discusses the five core factors that contribute to longevity and healthspan: emotional health, exercise, nutrition, sleep, and molecules (drugs, hormones, supplements).
    54:34: ⚡ Exercise, muscle mass, and strength are crucial for good health and longevity, with a 400% difference in all-cause mortality between the fittest and least fit individuals.

My parents obviously at the end of their tether ask the attending consultant ask how long I could go on living like this. He said difficult to say “but I would say he would live to the age of 14, may be 15 yo.” And rubbing the hair on my head, continued “So you should enjoy him whilst you have him”. They were devastated. I being a 5yo thought fantastic I’m going to be 15! But now I’m in my mid 70s. Life can be strange

I take my walking sticks all the way to the top three days a week and take my dog for a one hour walk every day. I am 67 years old, female and feel very healthy and strong.

    I am a 41 year old woman with 5 kids under 12 years old, never did weights in the past but after hearing about the importance of muscle mass as we age, last year I started doing private weight lifting training classes for 1 hour once a week and once I got comfortable doing weights on my own (after learning all the correct form), I now do heavy weights in my own garage for literally 5-10 minutes a day (after all the kids are in bed!). Will never go back to those 1 hour CrossFit type classes, I don’t have the time! The muscle mass I have now compared to a year ago is pretty awesome-muscle-building and strength can be achieved in a very short amount of time!! I probably need to start doing more cardio in some way. May start ice skating again. :)

My Dad was not useless. He always helped others throughout his life. I worked 34 years in academic medicine and witnessed the end of scientific method. Now the results of research favor the desires of the funders. We are living in the 3rd world now. And "they" do not want to stop "slow death" because it is all about money.

    Growing up in the jungles of Sumatra in the 50s and experiencing the trauma of our family barely escaping the ruthless killings of Dutch families, then moving to Holland for 5 years and then immigrating to the US(Vermont) and becoming a naturalized citizen at age 18, I have such a deep appreciation of the freedoms endowed here. My father passed away that same year of a heart attack at age 50, and I swore as I stood there at his grave that this was not going to happen to me. I started weight training and running then from learning to speed skate in Holland to transitioning to skiing and eventually getting to race as a pro ski athlete around the globe. Looking back I realize the incredible benefits of activating fast twitch fibers in skiing, there is no other sport that will put that much force on your skeletal system for that long, as eccentric contractions activate type 2 fibers better than anything else. Now I work regularly putting loads of up to 1500 LBs pedaling tourists up and down the streets of SanFrancisco in a bike taxi at age 76. Thanks Dr Attia.

      Killings of Dutch families in 1950s? Haven't heard of that before and couldn't find it in Wikipedia, but I totally believe it. Around 1998 they were raping, looting and killing ethnic chinese families. Many of them are good, but also many are savages.

    🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
    00:00 🏃‍♂️ A 15% reduction in all-cause mortality can be achieved by moving from zero activity to just 90 minutes of exercise a week.
    00:14 💔 Cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes are the leading causes of death for most people. To extend our lifespan, we need a different approach to health.
    00:42 💪 A person in the fittest 2.5% has a 400% lower risk of dying in the coming year than someone in the bottom 25%.
    01:10 💔 Emotional health is critical to overall wellbeing; ignoring it can lead to negative cycles of anger and workaholism.
    01:54 📘 Dr. Peter Attia's book debunks common misconceptions about health and highlights the importance of proactive disease prevention.
    03:41 🌐 Dr. Attia's mission is to broaden the definition of health beyond physical to also include emotional health.
    06:10 🧬 Having a motivation to live longer and better, Dr. Attia shifted his focus from performance to understanding health in a different way.
    07:06 🔄 Medicine 3.0 is about real prevention, personalized treatment, and an honest assessment and acceptance of risk.
    09:52 📉 Today, most people die from slow death diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes. To live longer and better, we need a different approach to health.
    10:59 🏃‍♂️ Medicine 3.0 involves taking preventive measures early in life and tailoring treatments to the individual.
    11:57 🎚️ It's crucial to consider the risk of not acting on potential health issues, not just the risk of action.
    14:56 ⏳ Diseases like cardiovascular disease begin at birth and compound over time. Taking preventive measures early can significantly alter life's disease trajectory.
    18:21 🧪 Some elements of our bodies begin aging from the moment we are born. For example, the process of atherosclerosis or cardiovascular disease starts on day one.
    21:57 💡 The COVID-19 pandemic made people more aware of the relationship between poor metabolic health and mortality, prompting many to improve their health habits.
    23:21 🧠 Health span, or quality of life, comprises cognitive, physical, and emotional health. Focusing on all three aspects is crucial for comprehensive health and wellbeing.
    25:12 😔 The speaker reveals how a therapist made them realize that despite helping others live longer, they were neglecting their own emotional health and happiness.
    26:35 😞 The speaker admits their maladaptive behaviors, such as detachment from others, prone to anger, and workaholism, which stemmed from a cycle of shame and self-loathing.
    30:50 🧩 The speaker acknowledges the role trauma plays in forming maladaptive behaviors and emphasizes the importance of self-examination to identify and manage these behaviors.
    35:45 🏥 The speaker shares their experience undergoing intense residential trauma therapy, describing it as a life-saving process that enabled them to manage maladaptive behaviors.
    39:14 🎯 The speaker discusses overcoming their harsh inner critic through daily self-affirming voice recordings, replacing self-criticism with kindness and understanding.
    42:00 💡 The speaker shares the revelation that their maladaptive behaviors were responses to undeserved negative experiences, emphasizing that these behaviors are protective adaptations rather than inherent flaws.
    47:27 🏋️‍♀️ The speaker begins discussing the decline and loss of physical function, introducing the second tool for increasing longevity: exercise, an area they believe is not adequately addressed by modern medicine.
    49:03 🥗 The third tool for increasing longevity is nutrition, another aspect the speaker believes is not sufficiently covered in medical training.
    49:17 😴 Lack of education on sleep and its importance to health is a significant issue in traditional medical training.
    49:46 💊 Traditional medicine primarily teaches about drugs and hormones but lacks in-depth training on supplements and their impacts.
    50:28 🏋️‍♂️ Regular exercise has a substantial impact on health and longevity, but the quantifiable benefits are often overlooked.
    52:31 🍬 Type 2 diabetes increases all-cause mortality by 40%, highlighting the critical importance of maintaining healthy blood sugar levels.
    53:57 💪 The strongest 15-20% of people have a hazard ratio of 3 compared to the weakest 15-20%, indicating a 200% difference in all-cause mortality.
    54:57 🏃‍♂️ VO2 max, a measure of cardiorespiratory fitness, is a significant predictor of overall health and longevity.
    01:00:32 📈 The fittest 2.5% of individuals have a hazard ratio of 5 compared to the least fit 25%, indicating a 400% difference in all-cause mortality.
    01:01:16 💡 Having high VO2 max, high muscle mass, and high muscle strength significantly outperform other health factors in reducing the chance of early death.
    01:01:46 🍭 Muscles play a critical role in regulating blood sugar levels, making muscle mass vital for avoiding conditions like type 2 diabetes.
    01:03:06 🚧 As people age, loss of muscle mass and frailty become significant predictors of mortality, particularly due to falls leading to fatal injuries.
    01:04:38 🏁 While aging is inevitable, the rapid decline in muscle mass and physical activity doesn't have to be. Regular exercise can slow down the process.
    01:07:45 🔄 Muscle mass and physical activity levels tend to drop significantly around age 75, leading to a vicious cycle of decreased activity and further muscle loss.
    01:10:48 📉 Going from zero activity to just 90 minutes of exercise a week can lead to a 15% reduction in all-cause mortality.
    01:14:07 💪 The concept of "stability" is introduced as a crucial aspect of health and fitness. This refers to the capacity to transmit force from the body to the outside world and vice versa, without injury.
    01:16:50 🚑 Chronic injuries can often be traced back to a lack of stability in certain parts of the body. Training should include exercises that bolster stability.
    01:18:27 👣 Discussion about the potential drawbacks of insoles and arch supports. The speaker suggests that most people need to strengthen the intrinsic muscles of their feet instead.
    01:21:25 🛋️ The idea of the "Comfort Crisis" is introduced, suggesting that modern conveniences have led to physical and mental health issues due to lack of discomfort.
    01:24:40 🎒 Rucking, or walking with a weighted backpack, is discussed as a form of exercise that induces discomfort and builds strength.
    01:26:31 🍭 The speaker delves into the complexities of sugar and its impact on health, arguing that it's not necessarily calorie-for-calorie worse than other carbs, but its liquid form can lead to overeating.
    01:32:38 🥤 The potential impact of diet drinks and non-nutritive sweeteners on gut health is discussed. Though the data are still emerging, the speaker advises caution and suggests avoiding these drinks.
    01:34:05 🧠 Observations indicate that the gut's health may impact the way food is metabolized, affecting weight loss.
    01:34:30 ⚖️ Misconceptions about weight loss often revolve around the idea that just eating less is the key; while it is important, the role of exercise and quality of diet are also significant.
    01:36:20 ⚡ Correcting sleep and stress problems is crucial for successful weight loss. Sleep deprivation leads to insulin resistance, making it difficult to lose weight.
    01:43:16 ⏰ Time restriction or intermittent fasting is a way to create an energy deficit by eating within a certain window of time. However, it can be challenging to get the right amount of protein intake.
    01:45:20 🍷 Discusses the toxicity of ethanol, the alcohol we drink. While it might have some pro-social benefits and potentially comes with some antioxidants, there is no dose of ethanol that is healthful.
    01:49:16 💤 Sleep is critical for health, affecting everything from mood to cardiovascular health, insulin resistance, and weight management.
    01:52:49 💉 Discusses the use of hormone replacement therapies, including testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) for men and estrogen and progesterone replacement therapy for women. The responsible use of these therapies can have several benefits, though they are often overprescribed.
    01:56:19 ⚠️ High doses of testosterone can lead to loss of fertility and the ability to produce testosterone naturally, so it's essential to consult with a knowledgeable doctor when considering hormone treatments.
    01:57:03 🧪 Meddling with the body's chemical balance can have consequences; it's important to consider the costs before starting any hormone-related treatments.
    01:57:45 💊 Drugs like finasteride and dutasteride can slow hair loss by blocking the conversion of testosterone to a more potent androgen, but they can also have severe side effects, including sexual dysfunction, which may persist even after discontinuing the drug.
    01:59:22 📚 The speaker highly praises the doctor's book as comprehensive and insightful, a culmination of many years of work, and recommends it to anyone interested in the topics discussed.
    02:00:32 🤖 In response to a question about his role in an AI-driven world, the doctor believes the most significant impact he can have is through raising his children to be well-adjusted and intellectually curious.
    02:01:29 🙏 The speaker expresses gratitude to the doctor for sharing his wisdom and answering important questions. He looks forward to sharing the knowledge acquired with his podcast audience.

    I turned 71 today and have lots to celebrate health wise. I don't have Osteoporosis or any metabolic disease. I took a bad fall a few weeks back and suffered no ill effects from it. I am on no medications and I am Happy. I do contribute most of this from being on a healthy diet for at least most of my life and managing to avoid any magor chemical exposures. I have never smoked and do not drink alcohol or use pot. My grandkids have started a life of eating organically, being active, and also not sitting around all day in front of a computer. They are homeschooled and regularly go hiking and play with other homeschooled kids. The 9 year old just spent 4 days camping with her Dad and other Scouts. The 6 year old went camping with her mom and grandfather . It will be interesting to see them in their 60's. Will their lifestle now continue to be a part of their life and will they be as healthy as their parents and grandparents are now?

    Watching this made my think for my Aunt. She is 82 and broke her hip. She has had a fully recovery and has since broken her wrist and also fully recovered. She has been playing golf all her life and only really stopped due to the pandemic. As she has been active her whole life, her muscle strength must of always been very high and as a result she could recover quickly.

    • @FlatToRentUK
      @FlatToRentUK 10 месяцев назад +2

      Strength and stability can help you arrest a fall if you overbalance. Grip strength can help you grab something to slow the fall if you can't stop it. Muscle protects bones if you do land on them. And as you say, being active can aid recovery should you still break a hip or shoulder. I've heard them before but Peter's statistics on breaking a hip are truly scary and not widely known. The deterioration can be huge in so many ways - loss of activity, loss of satisfaction and enjoyment which impacts mental health, less social interaction also impacting mental health.
      Strength and weights are not about looking good on the beach (does help though), there's a far greater purpose than that.

If you don't use it you lose it. Be active, light activity is still activity.

    Ohmygosh 😢. Talking about your last chapter on emotions about trauma resonated with every cell in my body. Im 60 now and grew up with my fair share of trauma. I left home when i was 16 to escape my fearful life. I had zero life skills all i knew was a heap of bad behaviours id learned from my parents. Because of this i look back on so much of my life as acting out. Ive been filled with negative emotions for most of my yrs and have not had good relationships or ever been married and i was able to have children either i believe as a direct result of this trauma. Ive never been a victim or played the blame game but ive always been my hardest critic which made me hard on myself and usually unkind to those around me. I was full of anger too. Ive never had help for these issues and never felt like ive been heard. Ive grown up craving love but always looked for it in others believing thats where we were validated. Its only been because of a traumatic brain injury in the past 2 yrs when i almost died (i spent 3 wks in a coma) and 2 months in rehab. It seems as tho i came thu it with a different brain. I did have a NDE experience while in my coma and i think this experience has changed my life. I love a very happy fulfilled life now and i have so much love and inner peace and joy. As strange as it sounds im grateful for this brain injury. I honestly dont think i could have changed my own life the way it was. Now i just need to exercise more 😊.

His exhaustive need to & bury himself in ‘answers, statistics, solutions, theories , sprints, marathon ideologies etc etc etc ’ . Man oh man ....his eyes say it all . Run rabbit, run rabbit ....run, run, run

      I know a doc who sleeps 3 hours every 48 hours when she's in work mode.
      Doctors often work very long shifts over 36 hours at a time. The system demands it.
      It is EXTREMELY common for doctors to be sleep deprived.
      Long shifts are so common that in the US, they had to make laws to ban new young docs from working more than 28 hours in a row.
      Patients who stay in the hospital for 3 days max need to have the same doc from the beginning to end, or details may be missed. Handing off patients requires a lot of paperwork and documentation. That's why average shifts are so long, plus pandemic induced shortage in manpower.
      Docs suffer a lot and don't get paid as much as they would in other fields imo. The money goes to corporate overlords instead.
      Sometimes, often women, they like to share their emotional experiences verbally, especially to relate to you. That's probably what happened there.

    The best part of the book and the best part of the interview is the part on emotional health, for such "giant" in medical field, like Dr. Attia, filled with fame, accomplishment to so openly talk about past shame, anger and tantrums so out of control, that had to be forced to therapy. What an amazing ending, to even have the courage to talk about it openly, and how he managed to overcome that, It is so unbelievably inspiring, I wish those who can see themselves in his talk take similar actions, to at least relieve their own sufferings and the suffering the y caused on their loved ones and family. I think his life should be turned to a movie.

    Being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 24 yrs ago, I took to learning the basics of nutrition, cellular functions- or malfunctions-, and the effects of behaviors, habits, activities, mood on the body/ mind-- long term and short term. At 11 yrs old, I was intrigued and soaked up all that medical information like a pro... relieved and also thrilled to have access to the knowledge, treatment, and health care specialists needed to manage my illness.
    The question I get asked most frequently is
    "so ... what can't you eat?"
    Umm. I CAN eat anything I want. Not as much as I want, whenever I want. And likely not without an insulin injection.
    "But isn't sugar like BAD for you??"
    Sugar isn't actually GOOD for anyone. A healthy human (w/o diabetes) may be able to more effectively process and utilize carbs consumed, but any BODY will have to work extra hard in response to high carb intake. Take into acct the unidentifiable ingredients of processed junk foods. And a "sugar rush/ crash" starts to make a lot more sense.
    By the time I turned 24 (after giving birth to a healthy bby boy) I began my first attempt at starting my own veggie garden and raising layer chickens for fresh eggs. During this adventure, I came to a conclusion: if WE taught EVERYONE (starting in gradeschool) the same things about nutrition that doctors teach type 1 diabetics, pre diabetes and type 2 diabetes would not be nearly as far reaching or widespread as it is today.

      Aha! You've stumbled upon the very reason they don't want us to be healthy. The pharmaceutical companies need a pipeline to get people into their system, a system of medications that is extremely hard to get out of. The pharma lobbyists want our food to be sprayed with pesticides and over farmed so it doesn't have any actual nutrients and they lobby to have the preservatives and hormones and more processed foods because it leads to poor health. All those greedy little hands working together to make money off our pain and suffering. It's quite disgusting that more people don't see all the connections. Most of our politicians have been compromised and go with it. I don't know what the answer is. I hope we find it soon. I'm glad to hear about your turn around.

    Im 71 and have suffured horriblie from disease and injuries. I find deep tissue massge to be such an emotional release PRIOR to exercise . That comfort and freedom seem to open up channels of muscular skeltal communication. Ican find exercise moments that tax me without great stress or pain. Its absolutely amazing ! Ive never heard of this regimen. Obviously it is involving a hugely different relashionship bettween muscular skeletal than traditional exercise regimens. TRY IT it feels like nothing else.

      I was a healthy 65 yr old when I started I.F. Only needed to lose about 12 lbs that had crept up on me slowly over a decade, but I couldn't shake it. I.F. was amazing. I was a very thin 118 lb as a teen and early twenties at 5'5". Now I'm 125 for the last 6 years (now71). The most amazing part though, was that it seems to have reset my metabolism back to being 30 yrs old. (My sister says the same for her.) I can binge, say at the holidays or a week with company, and gain a lb or 2 and in 2 days without trying I am back to 125! I am no longer as strict as when I wanted to lose weight but I have always eaten healthy except for a small-ish dessert most nights. So happy to be Me again, fitting into all my clothes!

    What I like about Dr. Peter Attia and his book “Outlive” is how his integrity as a scientist/doctor shows. He mentions several studies but also breaks down the quality of those studies and what research still needs to be done. He says how those studies INDICATE things but don’t necessarily PROVE those things. It’s refreshing to see someone acknowledge how complex the human body is, especially in an age of “experts” with black and white answers. Not to say that those people aren’t experts in their field, but they tend to use the research that confirms their bias to prove their points.

    As a newly 60-year-old, (you wouldn't believe it if you saw me) I can honestly say participating in a comprehensive approach, instead of a reactive approach to my health - mind, body, and spirit, has changed absolutely everything.

    I would just like to say to Steven, "THANK YOU!!"
    Even if your guests had nothing credible to say, the fact is, that you get me to thinking about things that I otherwise would never have thought about or even thought to think about. 😂
    It's this particular guest that is really shaking me up this time, though.
    I am a 51 year old guy and, I have been thinking about changing my lifestyle and my health for so long, but I never really do anything about it..
    The closest I ever came to consistently doing exercise in recent years, was probably because I was an addict and I sought out therapy about 7 years ago for self-motivation.
    I was able to stop using drugs and alcohol (with the help of this therapist) and, moreover, I stopped obsessing about my addiction and really focused on me and self care.
    She (my therapist, who I no longer see) kind of talked me into working out but, I'm inherently lazy and it was too much work and I had too many excuses not to go etc...
    I mean, I was clean now, after all....😂
    Fast forward to this moment in time, I'm now employed with benefits, I have a car, and just....stuff, I now have stuff...but I'm noticing that, I am still unhappy and my mental and physical health are still in decline.
    Even after all of the positive strides I've made, I'm just angry, combative, self absorbed, stressed, my luck is shit too,(probably instant Karma) and more.
    However, I still find the time to help others when and where I can..
    I know I'm rambling here and I'm lucky if Ican remember why I even started writing this😂
    For real though, if not for your channel, I don't know if I would have picked up this notepad I have here on my lap and started jotting down in very real honesty, my shortcomings my childhood traumas, and the myriad of things I don't like about myself and, there's actually quite a lot.
    I didn't realize just how much and, I'm only 38 mins into this episode! I haven't even heard what his big reveal is yet and I'm already note-padding and writing this stoopid long self absorbed comment lol.
    You are out here changing lives and minds, one episode at a time. You're an invaluable asset to the community. To the world really, if it's willing to listen.
    Thank you Steven.

    His explanation on how intense those thoughts and the minset itself can be, are probably unimaginable for the common person.
    But the fact that he was able to face it, is very admirable, because it probably shattered him initially

    My honest opinion on this video as a health specialists It was my first time that I watched and listened to the full cast because the info that was shared is actually the same as I practice and teach to my clients. I did my research for a lot of years on studies and results and doing the things that are explained as health benefits give me a boost in appreciation and motivation. Why? Because these days you can not go on any social media without being overloaded by people who have found THE way to make you as healthy as you can be pretending they carry the solution. It puts me off tbh. So thank you for the inspiring cast, keep on doing what you do. Greetings from the Netherlands !

      @@TheDiaryOfACEO Asolutely transformational. Last year my father died from heart attack he was 71 but diagnosed with diabetes at 45.. Though I have been health conscious, Since his death I have been paying more attention to my health as well. Because our family is riddled with diabetes and hypertension. And I am on a mission to help reduce that by sharing information like this with my friends family and community. Every body knows they should exercise but just to know the degree of impactful that just 90mins of exercise can do to prevent your risk to certain disease and cancer is huge. Dr. Attia 's message was blunt to the point and simple to understand. Thank you for bringing him on. Thanks again for asking thoughtful questions that we would also want to know. ❤❤❤❤
