Diet and Nutrition Assessment

Introduction

Why You Should Take This Assessment

Many people go on a diet to lose weight and to look and feel better. However, eating for health is not simply about looking thinner. Unhealthy eating, along with other bad lifestyle habits, is a major risk factor for heart disease and type 2 diabetes. An unhealthy diet can contribute to high blood pressure and high cholesterol. It can also increase the risk for certain cancers.

Take the following survey to assess the health of your diet and to see if your eating habits will help prevent serious long-term health problems.

How Much Time This Assessment Will Take

5 minutes

How to Prepare for This Assessment

Before starting the assessment, you should gather the following information, if you have it:

  • Family history of diabetes
  • Your most recent fasting blood sugar

You can still benefit from this assessment even if you don't have this information.

What You'll Get at the End of the Assessment

  • An explanation of your important risks
  • Recommended action steps for reducing your risks
  • Links to additional reading
