Peter Attia discusses his diet to delay the aging process

While it is generally accepted that diet plays a significant role in human aging, conducting randomized clinical trials to elucidate this role is impractical. Therefore, researchers must rely on a combination of animal research and relevant biomarkers to estimate how alterations in lifestyle or diet affect human longevity. While both of these approaches have shortcomings, they remain the best tools available until new methodologies emerge. In this clip, Dr. Peter Attia explains the challenges involved in studying how diet and lifestyle affect longevity in humans.
