How freaky...I stumbled upon this about a week ago before ever reading this post! My LE is 82...which I find hard to believe (I admitted I am a smoker, have a family history of heart disease, do not excercise, and eat a high fat diet). They must put alot of stock in the advancements in health care...
It should have had a little disclaimer at the bottom of the page that said...you may live to be 82, but you'll have to have a CABG, a permanent pacemaker, a feeding tube, and live your last 15 years on a portable ventilator...keep up the good work! lol
(i know...I have a morbid sense of humor)

Try this link for a really good insite into life expetency and some really good health education. My life expectancy is 83 but if I make some valuable life changes I could increase my chances of a healthy life.
We all know these changes but each person who takes the test will get their own print out of improvements which can be made, and it contains the rationale behind the recommendations.
