About
Peter Attia is a physician focusing on the applied science of longevity. He trained at Stanford and Johns Hopkins and spent five years at McKinsey & Company before founding Attia Medical PC (now Early Medical), a medical practice focused on longevity.
He is best known for popularizing Zone 2 cardio as a longevity intervention, drawing on the research of Iñigo San-Millán. His framework emphasizes the "four horsemen" of chronic disease (cardiovascular disease, cancer, neurodegenerative disease, and metabolic dysfunction) and evidence-based strategies to address them.
His book "Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity" became a #1 New York Times bestseller and is widely considered the definitive guide to longevity medicine.
