Lifestyle Risk Assessment Tool

The Lifestyle Risk Assessment Tool is a set of questions about personal and lifestyle factors that can affect your risk to develop certain diseases. Please explore the Disease Risk section of Mayo Clinic GeneGuide (under My Results). See how your answers and your genetic results are used to help illustrate your risk for coronary artery disease (CAD), atrial fibrillation, and age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). This tool is not available for venous thromboembolism (VTE).
Your answers to the tool and your genetic results show that both genetic and lifestyle factors impact disease risk. While both are considered, an exact level of risk is not determined for any condition. Start

How lifestyle factors affect risk for disease

Environment, aging, and lifestyle factors can increase your risk of disease, sometimes to a larger extent than genetic factors.

You can take more control and reduce risks by making lifestyle changes involving exercise, weight control, smoking cessation and more, and discussing your concerns with a health care professional.

The questions included in the Mayo Clinic GeneGuide™ Lifestyle Risk Assessment Tool help examine your unique risk factors and combine them with your results in the Disease Risk category of testing.
