0:00.0	Welcome to the MyBuddyGreen podcast. I'm Jason Wackeb, founder and co-CEO of MyBuddyGreen and your host.
0:07.2	Looking for ways to use less fuel? At SO, we can help. Small changes we can make today
0:12.5	can start to help win the energy challenges we all face. Like your choice of fuel,
0:17.1	making the fuel you buy go further, and even finding alternatives to using it in the first place.
0:22.4	We call this thoughtful driving. The journey won't be easy, but we want to start it with you.
0:28.2	Not what you're expecting to hear from a fuel company. Well, at SO, we think it's time that
0:32.8	changed. Search SO thoughtful driving for changes we can all start to make today.
0:37.2	Hey, everyone. Cardiovascular disease is incredibly common. In fact, it's the leading cause

1:26.8	But look, lifestyle can get us only partially there in reducing our risk for CBD,
1:31.9	according to Peter. But pharmaceuticals can get us 100% there. And I think that's certainly worth
1:38.8	a conversation. This leads me to today's episode with Dr. Peter Atea. Peter is one of the brightest
1:46.6	minds in the field of longevity and is making waves with his new book titled Outlive
1:53.2	and his podcast The Drive. He is a Stanford Johns Hopkins and NIH trained physician
2:01.0	who serves on the editorial board for the scientific journal aging. Peter has a fascinating
2:07.4	perspective on how we can eradicate CBD with both lifestyle modifications and pharmaceuticals.
