The general protein guideline recommended by Peter Attia is to consume 1 gram of protein per 1 pound of body weight. He mentions that he typically consumes protein four times per day, with each serving consisting of 40-50 grams. This video compiles various clips that explain what he personally eats and the reasons behind it. A primary reason for this dietary approach is the retention and building of muscle mass, particularly for longevity. It aims to combat sarcopenia and frailty that can occur with aging.

Peter Attia is a Canadian-American physician and an expert in longevity medicine. He founded Early Medical, a medical practice that employs Medicine 3.0 principles to enhance patients’ healthspan and lifespan. Attia is also known as the host of “The Drive,” a popular podcast focusing on health and medicine.

I have been following and learning from him since his first appearance on the Joe Rogan @joerogan podcast many years ago.
