How do you know you are healthy?

How do I know I am healthy? I haven't had a check-up in years. What should I look for?

How do you feel? If you eat right and get regular exercise and you're not overweight or underweight and feel well, you are probably in good health. You can Google what is a normal weight for your age, height, and sex. If you are not in a normal weight range or don't feel well, you should probably get a check-up!

Hi,

You can think about how you feel. Do you generally feel well? Are you eating from all the food groups, getting good sleep, exercising every day?
