Episode notes
Career Shift After Becoming A Father
- Peter Atia returned to medicine after his daughter's birth to prevent premature cardiovascular death in his family.
- He originally trained in cancer surgery and had to learn cardiovascular disease from scratch.
Rank Risks To Prioritize Longevity
- Atia frames longevity as seven major, rankable threats to lifespan and healthspan rather than a single problem.
- Prioritizing interventions depends on which risks matter most for an individual.
Begin Healthy Habits Sooner
- Start healthy habits early but begin anytime; earlier nets bigger gains and less catch-up work.
- If you start late, you can still reduce decline but you pay for missed earlier opportunities.
