Recommended: Technology in healthcare in the last 10 years

Health has become a major issue in today’s society. The obesity rates for Americans today are 33.8 percent of adults, skyrocketing from 13 percent in 1962. I believe this is a result of technology today, and the availability of food over time. When it comes to health I believe my overall health is good. My overall score for my profile was 144. I don’t know what the best range would be for this profile assessment but I feel that is a solid number. Through the rest of my essay I will go over my strengths and weaknesses in my health sub-scale results along with activities they didn’t discuss in the profile. My overall health is decent I tallied up my points and got 2 never, 43 sometimes, 72 often, and 36 routinely.

I do my best with the time I have but sometimes I feel there isn’t enough time in the

To begin with, the self-assessment for enhancing my budgetary wellbeing helped me because it offered assistance with an understanding in the regions that I need to start spending less money on. As a college student, I find it critical to make a sensible spending plan because spending too much on things that are "wants "and not “needs” can affect your life adversely. The second self-evaluation (Staying Psychologically Healthy) was exceptionally precise in regards to the scoring. When I was analyzing my coping skill I discovered that I scored fairly low (9) because a perfect score was (15). Yet, I can relate this scoring with a past experience.
