Loved your no retirement comment - money or no money, still be seeking out the things you love doing and if you’re lucky enough you get to employ your talents in one field or another. At almost 72, I’ve been able to do so. Plus an avid walker/hiker ….

If you think needing glasses is bad, wait until you get really old. Because until that happens, you don't fully appreciate what aging means. It is humbling at its best. It is horrific at its worst.

@cynthiabrandt5941 Ай бұрын

amen, I have always been so strong, and I always thought I would not be one of those ones that would get weak. HA! glasses at 44, menopause at 50, loss of motivation 60, forgetfulness.....and the list goes on. I am 68, still care about weight and working out, and don't believe I can't become stronger and better!

If it were not for your Podcast I would not know I have two APOE4 alleles, high LPa, the risks of high LDL of 200. However after years of listening, I paid out of pocket for the recommended tests and now do my best to follow lifestyle recommendations for diet and exercise along with taking Repatha, Zetia, Rapamyacin; all things that will take anyone some extra time but are doable even if one is busy and not wealthy. I am a nurse, 49, have 10 year old twins. And there is still time for some personal obsessions such as archery, quilting, and fly fishing.....maybe more time actually as I am aware all the effort may be for naught.

Amazing story there. If more Americans were like you and financially prioritized their health the way they prioritize cell phone tech, we'd see the price for those meds, and longevity focused imaging and labs start to steadily decrease in price while increasing in quality.

I was happy to hear you speak to the value of working rather than living to retire...and what that traditionally means. After being a nurse and later becoming an APN, I've worked full time in various roles for 50 years. In the 2 years following that at age 70, I began teaching nursing part time. Yes the extra money is great but the rigor of keeping up with the art and science of care, continuously learning new software and applications, as well as the physical demands have truly been a huge source of joy in my life. Much like I know from continuing to regularly taking classes at my CrossFit gym as a part of staying metabolically healthy, using my brain for cognitive exercise has kept me tuned in and mentally strong. Thank you for being one of the first I've heard to start talking about the value of working and preventing cognitive decline. I have my goals for what life will be like for me physically at age 100 and now am planning for my cognitive abilities at age 100 too. God willing. :) My work here is far from done .

You are what you eat. Your diet impacts your health. Lower stress, reduce obesity, get enough sleep and more exercise are key to a healthy life. Obesity in children and adults is rising across the world. Fast food and sugary drinks including fruit juices are contributing to the problem of poor health and obesity. Eat a healthy plant based diet and exercise regularly. Reduce or ELIMINATE cows milk, eggs, cheese and meat. Eat more salad greens, beans, fruit and vegetables. Eliminate fast food, snacks like cookies, cakes, chips, and sugary drinks and juices. Every adult and child should own a bicycle and ride it regularly. Regular exercise will help you sleep better. Yoga is a great stress reducer. Obesity is all too common today. Get off the couch. Get off the phone, ipad or video game. A variety of stretching and other exercises help with increased mobility. Ride to work, ride to school, ride for fun. Every city should be a bicycle city. Speak up for bicycles in your community

Why doesn't Dr Attia mention the very important link between estrogen and brain health and how much a loss in estrogen is linked to demtia in women? Thus Hormone therapy is helpful in preventing dementia among other things.

Riding a bicycle is great for your balance. Riding a bicycle is a great way to exercise. Ebikes are bringing many older adults back to cycling. Cities need to do more to encourage people to ride bicycles. Safe protected bike lanes and trails are needed so adults and children can ride safely. Speak up for bicycles in your community. Bicycles make life and cities better. Ask your local transportation planner and elected officials to support more protected bike lanes and trails. Children should be riding a bicycle to school and not be driven in a minivan. Be healthier and happier. Ride a bicycle regularly.

I've heard that staying mentally active doesn't prevent cognitive decline. I wonder if it would make any difference to have bodily harm associated with failure in performing a task. Maybe cognition won't decline if your body thinks it's necessary for survival? I'd imagine your body doesn't care if you can complete a sudoko

Hi Peter. Thank you so much for everything you do. Wondering if you saw this Cold Fusion YT Vid (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rM6RlLSGqp3Ofp8.html) by Dagogo about using AI to detect cancer on dried blood! I've been following him for years and he's been a good source for emerging tech and more and I would to know how familiar you are about this and your thoughts. It would certainly change my opinion of AI if it would help us to better detect one of the 4 horsemen (from your book Outlive). I hope you see this and can respond. Thanks!

A plant based diet with plenty of antioxidants (lots of raw veggies and fruits, legumes, whole grains, moderate starches), zero cholesterol, very-low saturated fat and a variety of mushrooms, especially lion's mane mushroom (powder or whole) are the best ways to prevent cognitive decline and likely will improve and sharpen cognition. Getting a proper sleep and a decent dose of daily exercise are also essential in addition to that.

Avoiding saturated fat might be the dumbest thing you could do to prevent disease. All of the research linking saturated fat to heart related diseases has been debunked for over a decade. Over-consuming short-chain carbohydrates is what kills humans...period.
