About the author
Peter Attia is a Canadian-American author and former researcher who earned a medical degree at Stanford and later developed a clinical practice focused on longevity. His public work includes writing, a long-form podcast, and appearances explaining exercise, metabolic health, and chronic-disease risk.
Outlive presents his model of preventive 'Medicine 3.0': identify risks early, make decisions across decades, and measure success by healthspan as well as lifespan. The book places particular weight on exercise, while also discussing nutrition, sleep, and emotional health.
Where to start
Start with Outlive, co-written with Bill Gifford. It is a broad framework for thinking about chronic disease and later-life capacity, not a personalized diagnosis or treatment plan.
