I'm 30, but my health age is coming out at 23!! I certainly don't feel it!

It says i can lower it by 5 years as well. Sounds good, i'd like to be able to feel 18 again! LOL

39 -> 30. I'd like to touch up 18 year old girls, too. Just go to your local uni bar. Oh, you didn't mean that.

Hm. Right now I feel and walk like I'm in my 50s. (Went climbing yesterday.)

What is interesting is when you put your age and height but change it to be pretty obese, diabetes, smokes 60 a day, drinks like a fish, no exercise and eats chips all day...
Real age 39 - Your health age is 77... but you could lower this by 36 years.

Real age, 21... Health age... 40. Probably got a lot to do with my smoking and partying habits!

I'm 22 health age 18 and I could lower it by 9 I'm guessing that'd be by cutting back on the booze.

I agree, when I put my height and weight in, it condemned me as a fatty, doesn't account for muscle!
