Solutions Health Advisor™ is built upon a simple concept.

You are asked to provide as much information as you are willing to, and the tool uses state-of-the-art artificial intelligence modeling to predict future disease risks and improve your current health status. The more you share about yourself, the better and more revealing these predictions become.

It sounded to good to be true so we had to try it ourself. Below are the steps you have to take for the assessment:

My Personal Profile

To get started, you'll be asked to answer a series of questions. The more you share about yourself, the more accurately the tool can assess your health. Once you have completed this basic information, you will move on to establishing a basic health score. All information entered is kept private and secure.

Lifestyle Habits

You will be asked to complete a series of questions to establish a total health score. If there are questions that you cannot answer, you are asked to leave them marked don't know. Here are some examples:

• Do you smoke? (Yes, No)
• Daily Alcohol Intake ( Choose One)
• Aerobic Exercise (Choose One)
• Resistance Exercise (Choose One)

Dietary Habits

These questions about your diet are very important determinants of your future health. You'll be asked these questions based on an average day over the last three months. Even if you tend to be inconsistent in your dietary habits, you'll be asked to try to make your estimate as accurately as you can.

The Health Score Answers

At this point, the self assesment tool will custom generate a Health Actions Report with a numbered Health Score between 300 and 800.

The Health Actions Report will identify key factors that significantly impact your health both negatively and positively.

The report will say that your information has been saved. It will mention that even if you don't change your habits much, your Health Score and your Health Actions report will change significantly over time. The tool's scientific research and recommendations are updated on a regular basis. It will also ask you to return regulary to keep your information up to date.
