Clear Results Report plus access to a 24/7 GP helpline (and GP consultation in some packages)
Why take a Heart Disease & Stroke Risk Test?
Identifying your risks early can make all the difference. Many heart and circulation issues develop silently over years. Our assessment highlights three major areas:
-
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD): Fatty deposits build up inside arteries, restricting blood flow. PAD significantly increases your risk of stroke and coronary heart disease.
-
Blood Pressure: High blood pressure is a leading risk factor for stroke, heart attack, kidney disease, heart failure and dementia.
-
Metabolic Syndrome: A cluster of risk factors - high blood pressure, obesity and diabetes - that greatly increase your chances of cardiovascular disease.
