Heart Attack - Coronary Heart Disease - Metabolic Syndrome Risk Assessment

Learn YOUR Risk! Do you know how these controllable risk factors affect your risk of heart disease, stroke and metabolic syndrome?
smoking
high blood pressure
high blood cholesterol
diabetes
being overweight or obese
physical inactivity
It’s essential that you measure your risk of heart disease and make a plan for how to prevent it in the near future.

Use this tool to help you assess your risk of having a heart attack or dying from coronary heart disease in the next 10 years. It will also check to see if you may have metabolic syndrome, a group of risk factors that greatly increase your chances of developing cardiovascular disease, including stroke and diabetes.

This Risk Assessment can be use by people age 20 or older who do not already have heart disease or diabetes.

After you have finished using the tool, you can upload your results into your personal Google HealthTM account or you can print a copy of your risk assessment results, risk factor summary report, metabolic syndrome assessment and action plans for those areas you need to work on in order to reduce your risk.
