Why Low Cholesterol & ApoB Levels Are Critical for Longevity | Dr. Peter Attia & Dr. Andrew Huberman

Dr. Peter Attia and Dr. Andrew Huberman discuss the concept of causality in medicine, specifically focusing on the causal relationship between smoking and lung cancer, and LDL cholesterol or ApoB and atherosclerosis. They explore the current approach in medicine, the importance of understanding and mitigating risks, and question if methods could be more proactive rather than reactive. Dr. Peter Attia is the host of The Drive podcast and is a world expert on behavioral approaches, nutritional interventions, supplementation and pharmacological techniques to improve lifespan, healthspan and athletic performance. Dr. Andrew Huberman is a tenured professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology at Stanford University School of Medicine and host of the Huberman Lab podcast.
