Why You Need To Protect Your Joints If You Want to Live to Be 100 | Peter Attia on Health Theory

Extraordinary interview; so organized, even with subtitles for each topic, very good questions, cero interruptions to Dr. Attia. Absolutely took advantage of the expert's knowledge. I'm a 73 year old very fit and healthy Hispanic man, by the way.

This guy is my hero. Incredibly insightful, modest, and intelligent. He is a lifelong learner in the truest sense. His natural curiosity to learning and self improvement is remarkable.

I’m 75 right now and way younger then I felt at 70. I know what I did and actually planning on getting better still, how long I don’t know but I do look for traffic before I step onto a road. 🙏

It’s so refreshing to see two really smart, accomplished men humble themselves in front of each other by admitting to their insecurities and pointing out each other’s strengths. It reminds me that it’s okay to be less than perfect, and to boost others. This was such a good interview and I learned a lot. Well done.

I just can't get over how great these kinds of videos are. Think about it, you get world class advise by so many different channels and so many different doctors and all completely free. I just love the time we live in.

This guy is just so inspiring. About his insecurity....well, as Bukowski said; " The problem with the world is that intelligent people are full of doubts while the stupid ones are full of confidence."

I love this Doctor, the more he learned, the more he realized he doesn't know and he is not afraid to admit it. That is true intelligence and honesty with himself and the world. He is worth listening to for advise on our quest for health and more.

Great watch!! Lots of interesting stuff to be digested. I'm 68 and mind, body, spirit health is the first focus of my life. I'm not so interested in how long i live, but i want to enjoy my life to the max while i'm here. On the physical level, i walk at least 15000 steps a day, cycle at least 10 to 20km, do yoga 2 or 3 times a week, and lift weights every second day. I eat a plant based diet with a small amount of fish. Lots of nuts and seeds. No, dairy, pasta, rice or bread. I've been eliminating different foods from my diet for the past 20 years and eat pretty much the same thing every day, varied only by what fruit and veggies are in season. I follow the teachings of Buddha and have a regular mediation practice. Also have a strong belief in the law of attraction. I feed my mind with great podcasts and youtube videos like this one. I'm mindful of always choosing love over fear. People constantly tell me i shine. None of this began until i was in my late 40's when i realised i was getting older and it freaked me out. But that woke me up to the fact that there was nothing i could do about aging but there was a lot i could do about how i aged. Up until that point I was a complete couch potato, ate what i liked, drank a lot of wine and smoked cigarettes and a lot of marijuana. I do none of those things now. For most of my life i was around 20 stone (127kg.) I'm now half that weight and have been for the past 15 years and even if i do say so myself i look amazing.... Yes i've had several surgeries to take care of the loose skin that was a result of being so obese but my health is great, i take no medication and i'm pain free. Its difficult for even me to comprehend the changes in myself. i'm in total awe of this miraculous body that has responded so beautifully after years of abuse.

I'm 65. Still have - more or less - the physique I did when I was 30 ( a few more wrinkles). Still play tennis and spar with people half my age. Exercise regime: push-ups, pull-ups, crunches, stretches...all sorts of stretches, many of which I have 'made up' and which I don't see anyone, anywhere showing on youtube (Be creative, and figure out stretches to suit you injury and prophylatic needs). Nutrition: still eat meat, but have cut down on protein intake; muchos nutritional supplements (those who espouse the notion that these don't work or 'you only need to eat a whole food diet' don't know what they're talking about (just for instance, I take up to 6000 mg fish oil...and my inflammation is less now than it was 20 years ago); time restricted feeding (generally 17 / 7) and periodic longer fasts (2 - 5 days). The fasting makes up for a lot of ills. As for exercise, these young guys - like most here on youtube - have no idea what is good for someone in their 60s and 70s, i.e. emphasizing too many weights, too strenuous movements etc. Don't get me wrong, I exercise vigorously...but I exercise smart, i.e. lunges, yes..but without the weights; squats, yes....but without the weights; back extensions, yes...but you don't need weights. In fact, apart from some 30 lb'ers for curls, I don't use weights at all. And I'll let you know when the 100 mark rolls 'round....

Have been a huge fan of Dr. Attia for a long time. I'm 65 and plan to live a vital life to at least 100 years old. Hence I follow his work and apply longevity across multiple dimension - emotional, physical, social, spiritual. And finding one's balance across all these dimensions helps fuel my journey to 100. Tom Bilyeu, I can not thank you enough for your work and effort to bring such great guests to your youtube channel. Your contribution to this kind of thinking, knowledge, learning and enlightenment is amazing and greatly appreciated.

TB was brilliant here. He let the guest speak and asked few, but pivotal questions. Well done TB

I enjoyed the interview. Please keep doing these interviews. My grandfather was a kickass 100 year old. On his 100th birthday he jumped up and clicked his heels together. One of his secrets to success was walking everyday several miles.

I am so in love w/ people talking REAL about how the emotional component of life is Almost more important & harder than the physical & dietary stuff! 👍🏼

I was born in ‘38. Makes me heading to the age of 81! I was in hospital at age 1 year old with RA in left knee joint, which was diagnosed then as T.B. for first few years. Eventually that knee was surgically stiffened and have had since, three R knee replacements , 3 R hip replacements and 2 L hip replacements. It’s a bit late now to look after my joints! However I have a positive outlook, look after myself. I have Three grown children, 6 Grandchildren, and eagerly awaiting the birth of my first Great Grandchild. I love life and maintain a positive outlook. I hope I live to be 100. Life is worth living!

The sunk cost fallacy is probably the most profound takeaway for me. It helps to get over past “mistakes” , detours and experiences. Great talk, thank you.

My father just turned 91. He golfs once a week and he still does the grocery shopping and cooks for my mom who's become disabled. He retired at 60 and had open heart surgery and didn't think he was going to be around a lot but this is what I saw him do. He was always up 8 a.m. and drinking his coffee doing crossword puzzles with a light breakfast. He would go out and do a 5-mile walk until he was in his mid 80s and then come home and spend the rest of the good day doing yard work. The days he didn't go to his walk he went to the gym and did circuit training for 1 hour. He stopped going to the gym routine Lee when he turned about 89. He also read voraciously watch minimal TV except for in the evenings and always focused on the positive.

This guy is so amazing. Intelligent, so knowledgeable but still so modest and humble. I will have to watch all his other videos. He is so inspiring.

I have the pleasure of working with plenty of elderly people and if I have a client that is over 90 years I ask them, "what is your secret to longevity?" They usually get a kick out me asking and then answer eating healthy, no smoking, little or no alcohol, being joyful, having social engagments, being involved with family, friends, activities, and gardening, but the most common is faith, reading the Bible, and prayer. (By the way they usually do not take many or no medications and or refuse recommended meds) anecdotal but I listen and follow my patient's advise.

I work cattle and horse ranches. My regimen is tailored for all the movements that job requires. Which translates to lots of fun, sucky, intense, and different routines. I'm 44 and feel like I'm 20. I train at 4am, and usually start ranching by 8am. Movement is the key to youth. Keep moving, eat well, and challenge yourself daily.

I'm 74 I will Follow Dr Peter As Long As Icould
