Early Medical founder, physician and podcaster Dr. Peter Attia is the latest to join MasterClass’ lineup with his three-class course. (Watch a preview video below.) Though many factors, such as genetics and luck, that affect our health our out of our control, “the goal in this series is to focus on the things that we can control,” he says.
Attia continues, “There are probably people out there who think the word ‘longevity’ itself conjures up images of ‘bro science’ and biohacking and things of that nature, and there’s good reason to feel that way. On the news and in the media, it makes for sexy headlines. It’s for that very reason I kind of don’t like the word. The better way to think of this is it’s really about the principles of what we call life span and health span. In other words, it doesn’t matter how long you live, what matters how well you live. That healthspan element needs to be managed just as rigorously as you would manage the lifespan component.”
He notes that there are “four diseases that ultimately kill you,” heart disease, metabolic dysfunction, cancer and neurodegenerative disease. “I call them the four horsemen of death, the good news is you can identify , then assess the risks you have, address the risks and build a life-long plan to combat them.”
