Episode description

Dr. Peter Diamandis first joined me, along with guest Tony Robbins, for the show: “Tony Robbins, Peter Diamandis & Ben Greenfield Reveal New Anti-Aging Biohacks & Breakthroughs in Precision Medicine You’ve Never Heard Of Before.”

Today, the physician, investor, entrepreneur, and longevity enthusiast is back to reveal the secrets from his brand new book, Longevity Guidebook: How to Slow, Stop, and Reverse Aging—and NOT Die from Something Stupid, which includes tactics such as:

Implementing proven lifestyle practices to optimize your diet, sleep, exercise, and mindset, all enabling extended healthspan.
Understanding advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic technologies to find and reverse disease at the earliest time possible.
Receiving insights on how to “NOT die from something stupid” and the breakthroughs that can save your life and the lives of those you love.
Maximizing female healthspan through every stage of life.
Building and maintaining a “longevity mindset” (coupled with the routines that will transform your health).

You'll also get to explore what truly correlates with heart disease (the answer may surprise you), why your genes might matter less than you think, and the practical steps Dr. Diamandis personally takes to optimize muscle, metabolism, and sleep well into his 60s. From the impact of GLP-1s and the real story on alcohol's effect on longevity, to biohacks for sleep and the promise (and practical realities) of advanced diagnostics like full-body MRI and AI-powered heart scans—nothing is off the table.

Whether you’re a health tech enthusiast, longevity nerd, or just curious about actionable strategies to dramatically extend your healthspan, this episode is packed with groundbreaking science, inspiring personal stories, and a glimpse into the future of human potential.

GLP-1 drugs should be used as a temporary tool to train yourself on better habits, as they can cause significant muscle loss and a dangerous rebound effect if you stop.
