About this podcast

Dive deep into the science of health and longevity with Dr. Peter Attia and Dr. Andrew Huberman in this engaging Journal Club episode. They critically analyze two pivotal scientific papers: one exploring the efficacy of metformin for extending lifespan, and another revealing how belief effects (akin to placebo effects) can modulate drug impact on the brain and cognition, irrespective of the actual dose. This episode not only dissects groundbreaking research but also provides invaluable insights into how to read, interpret, and critique scientific studies, making complex topics accessible and actionable for anyone interested in optimizing health, understanding medicine, and honing their scientific literacy.
