What's your heart age? NHS Health Check

Summary

A new study by Staffordshire University shows that people who understand their ‘heart age’ are more likely to make healthy lifestyle changes.

50 preventable deaths from heart attack or stroke happen every day and Public Health England’s online Heart Age Test (HAT) allows users to compare their real age to the predicted age of their heart.

The tool aims to provide early warning signs of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, encouraging members of the public to reduce their heart age through diet and exercise and to take up the offer of an NHS Health Check.
