Part 3: Best Health-Assessment Sites

Cool site #3: What is your 10-year risk of a heart attack?

Go to heartdecision.org to assess your future risk of a heart attack. In the bottom row, click yes on “Display CHD + Angina Algorithm."

This results can be a bit confusing because the authors tried to combine the criteria of both the Framingham Risk Score and the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III on one chart. But you can take the results as accurate. A new version is due out soon to clarify the confusing results.
