Tips
Balanced diet: Consciously eat vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and quality proteins to reduce the risk of diabetes and heart disease.
Regular aerobic exercise: 150+ minutes of moderate aerobic activity per week (brisk walking, swimming) helps improve blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol.
Quitting smoking: Smoking significantly raises the risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Quitting brings your risk close to that of non-smokers within a few years.
Moderate drinking: Aim for no more than 20g of pure alcohol per day (about one medium beer). Have at least 2 alcohol-free days per week.
Quality sleep: Less than 6 hours of sleep increases the risk of obesity, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Aim for 7–8 hours of restful sleep.
Stress management: Chronic stress raises blood pressure, triggers overeating, and weakens immunity. Use relaxation, hobbies, and social connection to manage stress.
Reduce salt intake: Aim for under 7.5g/day for men and 6.5g/day for women. Reducing salt is directly linked to preventing hypertension and kidney disease.
Regular health checkups: Annual checkups to monitor blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol, and weight enable early detection and treatment.
FAQ
Q1
How accurate is this tool?
This tool provides a simplified check based on common lifestyle risk factors. It does not provide medical diagnostic accuracy. For an accurate risk assessment, please get a health checkup at a medical facility.
Q2
What should I do if my risk score is high?
Start by improving the categories with the highest scores. If your result is 'High Risk' or 'Very High Risk', we recommend visiting a healthcare provider for a checkup or professional advice.
Q3
What are lifestyle diseases?
Lifestyle diseases are conditions caused or worsened by lifestyle habits such as diet, exercise, smoking, and drinking. Common examples include diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia (high cholesterol), and metabolic syndrome.
Q4
Am I at risk even if I'm young?
Yes. Lifestyle diseases are not exclusive to older adults. Unhealthy habits accumulated in youth often lead to disease onset in one's 40s–50s, so it's important to build healthy habits early.
Q5
How do I interpret the category scores?
Scores are shown for 4 categories: Diet & Weight, Exercise & Activity, Habits & Stress, and Medical History. Higher scores indicate more room for improvement in that area.
Q6
Does having a family history increase my risk?
Yes, genetic factors play a role in lifestyle diseases. Those with a family history need to be more vigilant, but lifestyle improvements can significantly reduce the risk.
Q7
How often should I check?
We recommend checking every 3–6 months. Tracking changes as you improve your lifestyle can also help keep you motivated.
Q8
Is my data stored anywhere?
