Do I need anything before I take the Health Assessment?

In order to get the best possible results from filling out the questionnaire, it's a good idea to have your medical information at hand, including:

• Your blood pressure.
• Your cholesterol levels (total and HDL).
• The approximate date of your last checkup.
• When, approximately, you had your most recent vaccinations, such as for flu and tetanus.

Having this information will make for more accurate results and more focused recommendations, It is not required, however. You can write in your best guesses.

Before you start filling out the questionnaire, you might also think about your lifestyle, such as how often you:

• Drink alcohol.
• Smoke cigarettes, cigars or a pipe.
• Exercise, or perform physical tasks like yardwork or washing the car by hand.
• Eat fruits and vegetables.
• Drive faster than the speed limit.
• Feel tense or depressed.
