The Hollywood Reporter first reported the news.
The 52-year-old influencer, known for his podcasts and videos about living longer and his book "Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity," was brought on by CBS News' top editor, Bari Weiss, in late January, along with more than a dozen other new contributors.
Days later, the latest round of the Epstein files was released. Attia appears over 1,700 times in the files, which include crude emails he sent about women's genitalia that he later called "embarrassing, tasteless, and indefensible."
"The man I am today, roughly ten years later, would not write them and would not associate with Epstein at all," Attia said of his emails with the disgraced financier and convicted sex criminal.
Attia has also stepped down from his role as chief science officer at the protein bar brand David Protein and is no longer listed as an advisor at Eight Sleep.
Other famous and powerful people, including former Prince Andrew, have also faced consequences after appearing in the Epstein files.
