What feeds each category (and the implied per-metric weight)
1) Bloods — 28% total
Metrics used in scoring (equal weight inside the category):
🩸 HbA1c (%)
🩸 Triglycerides (mmol/L)
🩸 Uric acid (mmol/L)
If all three are present, each is worth ~9.33% of the overall /100 (28 ÷ 3).
If only some are present, the 28% is split evenly across those present.Not used for the score (stored/printed only): Total cholesterol, Blood ketones, Haematocrit.
How to improve?
🎯 Lower dietary refined sugar, integrate healthy dietary fats, which includes lowering refined oil, reducing industrialised, highly processed food, and drinking responsibly.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2) Blood Pressure — 22% total
🩺 Uses SBP + DBP together to make a single BP sub-score (thresholded bands in your code).
Contribution to the overall /100 = 22% (when BP is present).Not used for the score: Resting HR, Normal sinus rhythm (captured for notes only).
How to improve?
🎯 Exercise regularly and fittingly, eat cleanly, avoid smoking, and address lifestyle stress.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3) Body — 20% total
Metrics used in scoring (equal weight inside the category):
💧 Body water %
⚖️ Body fat %
🪱 Waist:Height ratio
If all three are present, each is worth ~6.67% of the overall /100 (20 ÷ 3).
If only some are present, the 20% is split evenly across those present.Not used for the score (stored/printed only): Weight, Skeletal muscle mass, Bone mass, Metabolic age (used in interpretation text, not in the score).
How to improve?
🎯 Hydrate properly and balance energy in versus energy out - seek dietary and activity advice.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4) Strength — 15% total
💪 Grip strength (average of L/R, sex-specific bands) → single sub-score worth 15%.
How to improve?
🎯 Regular and appropriate resistance exercise or incidental resistance training.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5) Pulmonary — 15% total
🫁 FVC % predicted → single sub-score worth 15%.
Not used for the score: FVC (litres).
How to improve?
🎯 Regular cardio-vascular exercise at your appropriate intensity.
