Have you ever tried to improve your health but got discouraged because your progress didn’t seem to add up to much? It’s likely because you weren’t engaged in a complete wellness strategy. While changing one piece of a lifestyle is certainly a positive step, it takes attention to all life details to see the full picture.
By living a healthful lifestyle, much can be done to prevent serious illness and premature death. This isn’t new information. For individuals, however, the big issue is just how to estimate personal risks, and then take steps to reduce or eliminate those risks.
As a physician specialist in Preventive Medicine, I created this prevention website, My Healthy Potential, using a system I developed throughout my long career. I feel it is the only open, widely-available model that permits individuals to easily and conveniently evaluate their individual health risks privately online and see what changes will make a difference for them, personally.
First, you decide, “What’s my health status right now?”
My Healthy Potential starts with a health risk appraisal. This is where you answer questions about your current health and family health history. Next you enter data such as your current body measurements, including blood pressure. Don’t have a cloth tape to take body measurements or a blood pressure cuff? We can help with that. We’ll also need a set of fresh laboratory results, such as cholesterol and blood glucose levels. If you don’t have that readily available, we can help there too.
Second, set those goals and get working!
After getting a profile set up, you obtain specific personalized health and wellness information that allows you to better understand what goals and changes might be the most helpful to you. We have health coaches who can help review your information, aspirations, and limitations to set realistic and measurable goals.
Monitor your progress with our tracker and watch your health status change for the better! You’ll likely start feeling better, looking better, and, in general, doing better. Imagine the impact your efforts will make for you and your loved ones.
