The Longevity Habit Tracker
Check off the habits that already describe you. There's no passing score here — just a quick snapshot of where your daily life is already supporting a long, healthy run, and where one small addition might help most.
This is a self-reflection tool, not a medical assessment. It doesn't diagnose, predict, or replace a conversation with your doctor.
