In Outlive, acclaimed physician and longevity specialist Dr. Peter Attia challenges conventional medical wisdom about aging and health. This groundbreaking book offers a fresh perspective on how to not only live longer but also live better—avoiding the chronic illnesses that most often cut lives short.

Praised by Freakonomics author Steven D. Levitt as “one of the most important books you’ll ever read,” Outlive was also named a Best Book of the Year by The Economist and Bloomberg.

Dr. Attia draws on cutting-edge scientific research to provide a new kind of health guide—one that goes beyond surface-level advice and equips you with strategies to improve nutrition, exercise, sleep, mental fitness, and emotional wellbeing. Instead of reacting to disease after it appears, Attia urges readers to take a proactive, personalized approach to health before problems arise.

This isn’t trendy “biohacking.” It’s a strategic, evidence-based framework for increasing your lifespan and your healthspan—the quality of your years, not just the number of them. His goal isn’t to hand you a one-size-fits-all plan, but to teach you how to think critically about your health so you can build a long-term strategy that fits your life.

In Outlive, you’ll learn:

• Why standard cholesterol tests may not accurately assess your heart attack risk

• The surprising liver condition many people have that’s often overlooked

• Why exercise is one of the most powerful tools for longevity—and how to train with long life in mind

• How to use nutrition science and personal data to design a sustainable eating plan

• The essential role emotional and mental health play in your overall wellness

Dr. Attia shows us that aging is not a fixed destiny—we have more control than we think. With the right knowledge and action, you can take charge of your future and make every decade stronger, sharper, and more fulfilling than the last.
