Peter Attia, celebrity doctor and CBS News contributor, has faced criticism following the release of the latest installment of the Epstein files. The 52-year-old is mentioned 1700 times in the document. It was revealed that she had regularly exchanged emails with a convicted sex-trafficker and pedophile for years.
Peter Atia was named in the latest part of the Epstein files (AP and Facebook).We found an email chain with the subject – ‘Got a new shipment’, where the early medical founder jokingly talked to Epstein about ‘the biggest problem with being friends’. Document number EFTA02496403.
In an email, Atiya wrote: “Biggest problem being friends with you? The life you lead is so embarrassing, and yet I can’t tell a soul…” It’s not clear what ‘shipment’ means.
This particular message was written on June 24, 2015, seven years after Epstein was arrested for procuring a child for prostitution. In 2016, Attia wrote to Epstein: “P—y, indeed, low carb. Still waiting for results on gluten content.”
Then, in December 2018, the celebrity doctor asked Epstein if there was any ‘fallout’ from a news story, apparently referring to Julie Kay Brown’s November 2018 Miami Herald story that identified 80 of Epstein’s victims.

In his post, Peter Attia writes: “A closer look at the Met-Prevent trial and what its null results reveal about aging interventions and trial design.” He also shared a link to his article titled: ‘Metformin misses the mark?’
Condemning Attia in the comments section, one user wrote: “Is there… anything else you’d like to comment on, Peter?”
“It’s not going away. You better get on with it…” added another on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Attia is married to Jill Attia. They were both students at Stanford University. They share three children.
