Begins: "If it seems as though everyone is throwing out orange juice, lifting weights barefoot or talking about “zone two” exercise, blame Dr. Peter Attia."

"Attia advocates a high-protein diet, close observation of health metrics such as lean muscle mass and bone density, and exercise as a weapon in the fight to live longer. He has said that glucose monitors, typically worn by people with diabetes, can be useful tools. He extols the benefits of aerobic training at a two-out-of-five intensity level (dubbed “zone two”) to boost the functioning of mitochondria, the power plants of your cells. Attia prefers to lift weights while barefoot to help balance and stability. On his list of things to avoid: phones in the bedroom and sugary drinks including juices in the fridge.~"

[Tip, definitely eat a high protein diet, but an inexpensive, OTC glucometer is better for tracking the BG data that matters. All the cool kids have CGMs, but do not let cost or need to join the programs that include CGMs stop you…they are not necessary]
