In this episode, my guest is Peter Attia, M.D. He completed his medical and advanced training at Stanford University School of Medicine, Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Dr. Attia is host of the health and medicine podcast, The Drive, and the author of a new book, “Outlive: The Science & Art of Longevity,” which examines disease prevention and healthy aging, including emotional health. He explains the leading causes of death worldwide and how to measure one’s risk of death and mitigate each risk factor. Dr. Attia shares how, in addition to blood-based markers of lipids and hormones, there are behavioral measures and interventions, and key aspects of emotional health (i.e., relationships, emotional stability, purpose, etc.) that fundamentally impact our physical health and longevity, and how to assess and adjust our emotional health. This episode is rich with actionable information related to disease screening and biomarker testing, nutritional, exercise, behavior and prescription-based tools that area useful to all people regardless of age, male or female, and that can significantly improve vitality, health and lifespan.

  • Remarkably, the quality of both Andrew and Peter's content far exceeds the expensive university education I get locally. I can't thank you enough for making this freely accessible.
  • I can’t believe Peter went into so much detail about his mental health issues, he was so vulnerable and had incredible humility to share what he did. Masculine men who have success in all aspects of their life usually would never share this. What a beautiful, beautiful episode. Especially towards the end regarding emotional health.
  • @marshalpeters
    Psilocybin saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety and illicit pill addiction. Imagine carrying heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not in a couple years the be all over for treatment of mental health related issues
  • @joliegray1572
    My father died of atherosclerotic cardiovascular and atherosclerotic cerebral disease last year. This video gave me understanding and closure I’ve desperately craved since his passing. Your video dedicated to grief helped me as well. I’m eternally grateful to you and Dr. Attia for helping me wade through the murkiest waters I’ve encountered. Thank you for your dedication to science.
  • @MindNow
    If you watch all of the Andrews Videos, I think you will have one of the most sustainable happy life. Thank you, Andrew and his team and all of the guests he interviews 🙏❤️
  • @VictorSneller
    Wow, that was some deep emotional maturity. I appreciate Dr. Attia walking through how to heal yourself emotionally.
  • One of my favorite podcast interviews of all-time. Informative and authentic. Thank you Dr. Huberman for giving us this gift and of course for Dr Attia and the work that he has done not only with the countless hours of research and care for his patients that benefits us all, but the work he has done on himself as an example of positive change is doable. Thanks again!!
  • @kabanovga
    I've been learning English for the last 2 years, and have invested a lot of money, but I haven't seen enough return on my investment. However, after watching this podcast, I feel that everything wasn't in vain. Thanks, Andrew, you've changed my life. ❤
  • @1166NYC
    This lineup is crazy, getting ready to soak in the knowledge. Peter Attia is a key player in human longevity for our future
  • I'm 7 weeks in on my very first nutritional health journey. Listening two to three hours of Huberman everyday is filling my head with information and enthusiasm for my time restricted eating and low carbs. At 54 I have never felt better. This is crazy and I can't believe this isn't widely known. Thank you
  • @MrSarollia
    for me this has to be the most valuable 3.3 hrs on YouTube ever. Thank you Andrew and Peter.
  • @ThomasMarciniak
    It was definitely the right decision to include the final chapter. Thank you Dr. Attia
  • Unbelievable discussion towards the end where Peter told his story about rehab and recovery from emotional trauma. Working his way out of negative self talk and recovery isn’t easy and I commend him for that - thank you for sharing!!
  • @lola.t.6399
    This is the most spellbinding of all the interviews Dr. Huberman did. Admittedly, sometimes the acronyms etc are over my head. NOT THIS TIME. I was hooked for over three hours. Every segment was useful. I’ve forwarded this to everyone I know. Thank God for you both. ❤
  • @davidrieger4397
    Thank You Peter & Andrew! I am 85 next week & going through adjustment to my final reality. Your authenticity and scientific information is extremely helpful. Thank You! Dave Rieger
  • Wow. The discussion on emotional health has already changed my life It moved me to tears as I was driving to work. It made me say to myself, “Do something before you lose everything that matters to you.” Thank you, Peter and Andrew.”
  • I have been very educated and astounded at the amount of work that you, Andrew(I feel like I know you), have put into this incredible, continuous mass of information that you give to us. Thank you very much. This latest pod cast with Peter Atia was mind blowing, and is willingness to be vulnerable will forever impact my life. Beautiful!
  • @RitaH22
    Bless you both and your families ❤
  • @Vam1500
    All studies done with public funds should only be published in a journal offering free access for that work. The public should not have to pay twice!
  • @2xSundays
    I thought what Peter shared about his rage was wonderful. As smart as Peter Attia is that is the most profound I’ve heard him. I feel like his tone during this interview was different than his tone in other interviews. Congrats on the success from the work you’ve put in!
