  Good morning, wonderful people. Welcome to doctor-turned-health-coach.
• 0:05
  My name is Dr. Ashuri, family medicine physician-turned-health-coach.
• 0:10
  And in today's podcast episode, I wanted to introduce you guys to a new tool on my website.
• 0:18
  It's a quiz in many ways, and it's called the Healthy Aging Score.
• 0:24
  So there's a lot of wonderful, great, reputable entities in the world who put
• 0:32
  out information based on what it means to age healthy, to live well,
• 0:38
  to feel good, based on choices that people make in their life and what metrics
• 0:44
  we can monitor to make sure that people are?
• 0:48
  Getting to a ripe old age without a lot of disease, without a lot of suffering.
• 0:53
  I mean, that's the goal, right? I mean, we want to live well. We want to feel good.
• 0:57
  We don't want to be hooked up to IVs. We don't want to be in the hospital.
• 1:00
  We don't want to be on a ton of medications. We don't want to have to get multiple
• 1:04
  surgeries. So how do we achieve that?
• 1:07
  WHO, CDC.
• 1:11
  NHS, what's called the Medicare entity of Australia, New Zealand,
• 1:16
  Denmark, all of them collect data, and pretty much all of them have agreed on
• 1:22
  these 10 to 15 metrics that determine and very well predict how we are going to age as we get older.
• 1:31
  Now, I took all of this, I took all of this, and put it into one little quiz
• 1:37
  that you can take, and at the end, it's going to give you essentially a score
• 1:41
  of how well you're doing.
• 1:43
  Now, the score is not meant to say whether you're doing good or doing bad.
• 1:48
  The point of the score is to help you monitor your progress over life.
• 1:53
  So you take the quiz now in 2025, and then you, based on that quiz,
• 1:59
  you might be like, okay, well, maybe my nutritional plan could use a little bit of help.
• 2:04
  Maybe my mental health has room for improvement.
• 2:08
  And the quiz itself is going to give you lots of great clues as to what changes
• 2:12
  you can But at the end, it's also going to email you a personalized report.
• 2:18
  Now, the quiz is going to be live at the end of August. This podcast is probably
• 2:21
  going to come out a month or two later, have a bunch of podcasts already scheduled.
• 2:25
  But when it's out, you can hop on my website at drrashori.com forward slash
• 2:31
  quiz, and you can take that quiz.
• 2:34
  So what's important generally in our day-to-day lifestyle is what we're eating,
• 2:41
  how we're connecting with other human beings, how we're managing our stress,
• 2:46
  how we're sleeping, how much activity we get.
• 2:49
  But there's also a few what we call biomarkers, blood tests,
• 2:54
  weight, waist circumference.
• 2:57
  These are important biomarkers that have really stood the test of time and are
• 3:03
  predictive in their own right.
• 3:05
  And so I have those included in the quiz as well. If you have those results,
• 3:09
  great. If you don't, that's okay. You can still take the quiz without them.
• 3:13
  And if you put those into the quiz, then you'll have a really great score.
• 3:18
  And then you can take that quiz again six months later and compare your score.
• 3:23
  If your score is improving, fantastic.
• 3:26
  You're on the right track. And just because your score is not great compared
• 3:30
  to somebody else, it doesn't mean that you're going to have a bad outcome.
• 3:34
  Always remember that. These are just tools. That's it.
• 3:37
  And they're tools to help us make the right choices for ourselves.
• 3:42
