Hello, I am Dr. Romain Rajan, General Physician.
I understand your concern â many people wonder when to start full body health checkups. Starting at 27 is not too late at all. In fact, establishing baseline health information early helps detect potential issues before they become serious
â
Advices
⢠You can begin full body checkups at 25â30 years of age, especially if you have family history of chronic diseases, high stress, or lifestyle risks
⢠Include lifestyle measures such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and avoiding smoking or excessive alcohol
⢠Keep a record of your blood pressure, weight, and basic lab results to track changes over time
What to Monitor
⢠Watch for any unusual symptoms such as fatigue, unexplained weight changes, frequent infections, or persistent pain
⢠Track lifestyle factors such as physical activity, diet, and stress levels
