Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

This is the ultimate manual for living better and longer.

For all its successes, mainstream medicine has failed to make much progress against the diseases of ageing that kill most people: heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. Too often, it intervenes with treatments too late, prolonging lifespan at the expense of quality of life. Dr Peter Attia, the world's top longevity expert who is featured on Chris Hemsworth's National Geographic documentary Limitless, believes we must replace this outdated framework with a personalised, proactive strategy for longevity.

This isn't 'biohacking,' it's science: a well-founded strategic approach to extending lifespan while improving our physical, cognitive and emotional health, making each decade better than the one before. With Outlive's practical advice and 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.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The last chapter is a gem!

Wonderful listen and great attempt at breaking down what is obviously a very technical matter to a layman /general audience level.
The last section on mental health is a gem!
All in all, a very insightful read!

Life Changing for me emotionally

Being a fanatic reader of Stoic and other self-help esc books, I always thought my desire for consistent improvement and discipline was a positive. The final chapters of this book proved otherwise. These chapters revealed to me the root cause behind my destructive urge to 'always be better'. You might think you have control over your emotions and are 'mentally strong', but I promise you, your emotional health is hurting you more than you think. The rest of this book is already brilliant and life changing for some, but if your already semi-healthy like me and reading this book looking for small hacks and adjustments in the pursuit to "be great" as Dr Attia mentions in the book, then you will be met with a wake up call in the emotional health department.

A timely book on a very topical subject.

I tip my academic hat to Peter Attia, whom I have enormous respect for in the field of longevity . Honest, sincere, and comprehensive without confusing the reader. He will resonate with many readers. Real-world advice, with realistic expectations, Peter Attia is evidence based with the willingness to change protocol when new evidence becomes available . Thank you for this book, which I could not put down . Thank you for your last chapter on mental health and emotional well-being, which gives the reader a perspective on the purpose of pursuing a long, healthy life.

Recommended for Everyone

As a long time listener to Peter's podcast, this books help to link those scattered pieces together and provided a holistic picture/framework which is instrumental for planning your own life/health.

Don't be misguided by the title - it does not only apply to those wish to outlive per se (this is not a goal for me for example), but to those who wanted to have a good life. Regardless of what your goal/dream is, a healthy body is fundamental to almost everything., and this books tells you how to be responsbile for yourself to build one.

I am revisiting some chapters after I finished the whole book, and I still keep listening to his podcast which brings in new perspectives and ideas - as Peter himself mentioned, there are things that changed often. For those things that change less often, you will mostly likely find some being touched by this book.

Again, recommended for everyone.
