| 0:48.2 | Welcome to Feel Better Live More bite size, your weekly dose of positivity and optimism to get you ready for |
| 0:56.7 | the weekend. Today's clip is from episode 356 of the podcast with medical doctor and longevity |
| 1:05.1 | expert, Dr Peter Atia. In this clip, Peter shares why he believes that exercise is the area we need to focus on |
| 1:15.7 | the most when it comes to our health and longevity. |
| 1:21.9 | In the book, you make the case that exercise may well be the most potent longevity intervention that exists. |
| 1:31.5 | Do you still stand by that? |
| 1:33.3 | And if so, why do you put that right at the top? |
| 1:38.0 | The answer to the first question is very simple. |
| 1:39.7 | Yes, I certainly do. |
| 1:41.3 | And the answer to the second question is also quite simple, |
| 1:43.9 | which is it really is not a matter of opinion. It is simply a matter of the data. The data make it abundantly clear.

| 2:04.2 | So, for example, the hazard ratio associated with all-cause mortality for a smoker versus a non-smoker is about 1.4. |
| 2:15.1 | And so statistically, what that means is a smoker is about 40% more likely to die in any given |
| 2:23.8 | year than a non-smoker, all other things being equal. That's what the 1.4 means. And, you know, |
| 2:31.4 | if we were to look at something, some intervention, I'm making this up, but, you know, drinking a certain type of tea, if that had a hazard ratio of 0.91, we would say that that intervention is associated with a 9% relative reduction in risk. If the hazard ratio is one, it means there's no difference. Okay. So that's that's the math on hazard ratios. So when you look at the hazard ratio is one, it means there's no difference. Okay. So that's the math on hazard ratios. |
