=== Health === Frampton is a vegetarian.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Spartos |first=Carla |date=21 April 2010 |title=Celeb chefs dish on the stars |url=http://www.nypost.com/f/print/lifestyle/food/celeb_chefs_dish_on_the_stars_YFgar3YBj85FzEnzm4GQ8N |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110606133500/http://www.nypost.com/f/print/lifestyle/food/celeb_chefs_dish_on_the_stars_YFgar3YBj85FzEnzm4GQ8N |archive-date=6 June 2011 |access-date=27 May 2010 |publisher=[[Nypost.com]]}}</ref> He sobered up in 2002 with the help of [[Alcoholics Anonymous]], which he says saved his life.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Leimkuehler |first=Matthew |title=In his new book, Peter Frampton details how he 'learned so much from failure' |url=https://www.tennessean.com/story/entertainment/2020/12/02/peter-frampton-david-bowie-struggling-comes-alive-success/6324396002/ |access-date=2025-02-01 |website=The Tennessean |language=en-US}}</ref> Since 2019, Frampton has been "living with" the muscle-wasting disease known as [[Inclusion body myositis|IBM]]. He has continued to perform, confirming 2025 tour dates.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |last=Kielty |first=Martin|date=2025-01-29 |title=Peter Frampton Uses Alcoholics Anonymous Lessons to Keep Playing |url=https://ultimateclassicrock.com/peter-frampton-alcoholics-anonymous-lessons/ |access-date=2025-02-01 |website=Ultimate Classic Rock |language=en}}</ref> Of his health issues he says: {{Quote box| quote = The worst thing about playing for me is when I’m soloing, I have to actually think about what I’m playing. I don’t want to think – I want it just to be coming from my heart. That’s how I always played. And now I do have to think a little bit, because I’ll be in the middle of the passage and I’ll say, ‘That finger is not going to get there in time!’ So I do a regroup and I use one finger for many notes that I used to use three fingers for.}} As to people asking if he's depressed with his condition, he responds, "you have to accept the things you cannot change. I learned that in [[Alcoholics Anonymous|A.A.]], and in many other places. What I have is not life-threatening, thank God, but it’s life-changing, and I’m going with the flow.”<ref name=":0" />
