How is it possible a healthy diet doesn’t increase your lifespan? Is it all for nothing? Today we’re diving into longevity myths we’ve believed for too long.
Peter Attia, co-founder and Chief Medical Officer of the popular fasting app, you probably have downloaded right now, Zero, and the bestselling author, podcast host, and longevity health expert, is breaking the mold and exposing why we’ve been thinking about lifespan and healthspan all wrong.
His latest book, Outlive, debunks many of the ideas you may have sworn by around diet and what an optimized lifespan looks like.
In part 1 of this 2 part episode, Peter raises really interesting points on how the size of a person doesn’t accurately point toward metabolic health. One-third of the people that meet the criteria for obesity are actually metabolically healthy and have the same life expectancy of a person with a “healthier” BMI.
We’re exposing common misbeliefs around longevity and Peter, being the longevity health expert he is, is highlighting the differences between lifespan and healthspan that is critical in how we achieve success for each of these outcomes.
Stay tuned for part 2 of this episode where Peter starts breaking apart the calorie debate and why it doesn’t hold.

You and everyone around you is being sickened by preventable metabolic dysfunction. Now is the time to get educated and manage your risk and the risks to your family and the environment we live in. This may be the best place to start your research to take action on not being poisoned and blinded by the food and healthcare industry lies.
