THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER, OVER 2 MILLION COPIES SOLD GLOBALLY
'One of the most important books you'll ever read' –Steven D. Levitt, bestselling author of Freakonomics
‘Jam packed with things you will wish you had known before. I devoured the audiobook and instantly bought a hard copy to keep on my desk' –Dr Julie Smith, bestselling author of Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before
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expert who is featured on Chris Hemsworth's National Geographic documentary LIMITLESS, believes we must replace this outdated framework with a personalised, proactive strategy for longevity.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 chapters on nutrition, sleep, fitness and exercise, Outlive's practical advice and roadmap can help you to plot a different path for your life, one that lets you outlive your genes to make each decade better than the one before.
Customer Reviews
Wealth of knowledge and tools to use
An amazing book and, incredibly for a (semi)medical book, a real page turner. It has helped me pick a good few tools and practices that I can start applying in order to get healthier (and I am already a healthy person). It has also educated me on how and what to discuss with my GP (it doesn’t specifically tell you what to talk about, but it makes it easy for you to take that info out of the book), what to focus on, what to keep track of and so much more. It’s probably the most important book I will ever read.
