Wouldn't you like to live longer? And better? In this operating manual for longevity, Dr. Peter Attia draws on the latest science to deliver innovative nutritional interventions, techniques for optimizing exercise and sleep, and tools for addressing emotional and mental health.

For all its successes, mainstream medicine has failed to make much progress against the diseases of aging that kill most people: heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. Too often, it intervenes with treatments too late to help, prolonging lifespan at the expense of healthspan, or quality of life. Dr. Attia believes we must replace this outdated framework with a personalized, proactive strategy for longevity, one where we take action now, rather than waiting.

This is not "biohacking," it's science: a well-founded strategic and tactical approach to extending lifespan while also improving our physical, cognitive, and emotional health. Dr. Attia's aim is less to tell you what to do and more to help you learn how to think about long-term health, in order to create the best plan for you as an individual. In Outlive, readers will discover:

* Why the cholesterol test at your annual physical doesn't tell you enough about your actual risk of dying from a heart attack.
* That you may already suffer from an extremely common yet underdiagnosed liver condition that could be a precursor to the chronic diseases of aging.
* Why exercise is the most potent pro-longevity "drug"—and how to begin training for the "Centenarian Decathlon."
* Why you should forget about diets, and focus instead on nutritional biochemistry, using technology and data to personalize your eating pattern.
* Why striving for physical health and longevity, but ignoring emotional health, could be the ultimate curse of all.

Aging and longevity are far more malleable than we think; our fate is not set in stone. With the right roadmap, you can plot a different path for your life, one that lets you outlive your genes to make each decade better than the one before.

Multiple sclerosis affects an estimated 2.5 million people worldwide, 400,000 in the US, and 85,000 in the UK. MS is different from other neurological disorders in that there is some scientific evidence that diet may improve the condition, and add to quality of life. This book looks at how a low-fat diet and the popular Best Bet Diet may improve the health of those with MS. There is also an anti-Candida diet for the extensive numbers of people who suffer both MS and Candida. These diets may also help those with autoimmune diseases such as celiac disease, Crohn's disease, Hughes syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis or type 1 diabetes. Topics covered include: detailed advice on foods to avoid, and why; which foods you should eat; ensuring you obtain enough nutrients; food intolerance; food supplements; practical advice on overcoming problems such as fatigue and disability while preparing food; and, extensive recipe selection and sample menus.

We are in the midst of an obesity epidemic, but despite being inundated with diet advice we are only getting fatter. We count calories and exercise regularly, yet still the pounds won't budge. Why? In this highly readable and provocative book, Dr Jason Fung sets out a groundbreaking new theory: that obesity is caused by our hormones, rather than a lack of self-control. He reveals that overproduction of insulin in the body is the root cause of obesity and obesity-related illnesses including type 2 diabetes, and offers robust scientific evidence that reversing insulin resistance is the only way to lose weight in the long term. It turns out that when we eat is just as important as what we eat, so in addition to his five basic steps - a set of life-long eating habits that will improve your health and control your insulin levels - Dr Fung explains how to use intermittent fasting to break the cycle of insulin resistance and reach a healthy weight - for good.
