Why take the health quiz?
Once you've completed our quiz, you will receive a personalised wellness score and support programme. This will tell you where your health is in tip-top shape, and where you still need support. The quiz covers the following topics and gives you a selection of tips to help you stay active & healthy.
Getting to know you
We want to discuss how you're feeling and your general mood, so we can get a better sense of your overall health. This will help us understand your wellbeing more clearly and identify any areas where you might need support.
What are your eating habits?
To get a clearer picture of your overall health and how we can provide support, the quiz includes questions about your eating habits. Good nutrition supports bodily functions and helps support the immune system. Alongside, a balanced diet can lower the risk of diabetes, heart disease & certain cancers.
How active are you?
As part of the Healthier You Review, we ask about your exercise routine. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate activity each week. Exercise strengthens muscles and bones, helps prevent chronic diseases, improves brain function, and boosts mood.
How are your Z’s?
We all have the odd restless night, but frequent sleeplessness may be tied to your lifestyle. This quiz looks at your habits, such as diet, drink, exercise, and smoking, to identify what might be affecting your sleep.
Are you a smoker?
Smoking, even occasionally, can impact your health. The quiz looks at your habits and offers tips on cutting down and even stopping smoking altogether. While quitting can be tough, it can make a big difference in improving your overall health, fitness and lung capacity.
What about alcohol?
Our quiz assesses your drinking habits to see if your alcohol intake is too high. While moderate drinking is not usually a concern, too much can harm your health. Having 'no drink days' each week can help reduce intake.

The Healthier You Review quiz will provide you with a personalised wellness score and support programme. Based on how closely you appear to follow the government's recommendations for healthy eating, alcohol consumption, physical activity, and smoking, the quiz can indicate where your health is in good shape and suggest areas where you may need support.
Your score is calculated by awarding points for each answer based on how closely you appear to follow the government's guidelines on eating healthily, drinking alcohol, being active, and smoking.
In the eating section, you earn points for selecting healthier options from the list of foods in the quiz. In the drinking section, you receive points if it appears that you are consuming below the recommended number of units of alcohol per week. In the moving section, you score points if you are meeting the recommended amount of exercise per week. In the smoking section, you gain points if you do not smoke, as every cigarette damages your health. The scores from each section are added together to give you an overall score out of 10.
The quiz results provide you with basic information that can help you reflect on your lifestyle and consider making some healthy changes if recommended. The quiz is not a scientific or medical test, and it will not indicate whether you are healthy or unwell. For a proper discussion about your health, or if you feel unwell or are concerned about your health, you should speak to your doctor.
