Why should I get a Lifestyle Health Assessment done?

- 1 out of 5 diabetic patients in the world is an Indian.
- More than 11% of India's urban population above the age of 15 has diabetes.
- Every 30 seconds, a person loses a leg to diabetes which can also result in blindness, kidney & heart failure.
- In last ten years, the Incidence of diabetes among people in their 30's has jumped up by 70%.

Risk of Respiratory Diseases:
- Estimates say that 2.2 crore adults and 36 lakh children suffer from respiratory diseases world- wide.

People give excuses like
- "Nothing can happen to me",
- "I am fit right now",
- "I will do it tomorrow",
- "I don't want to go to the hospital" or they are just lazy.

Since these lifestyle diseases cannot be cured, the only way to live a healthy lifestyle is to prevent the occurrence of these diseases.

Regular Health Screening is the only reliable way to screen all vital systems to either diagnose the diseases in their infancy and treat them early or assess the vulnerability and susceptibility of the body to save it from attacks of various diseases.

Everyone should undergo regular health assessments after the age of 25 and the frequency should be at least once every 6 months.
