How important is it for a 25 – 36 year old to get a full body check-up done?

For young adults aged 25 – 36 years, even perfectly healthy ones, an annual visit to the doctor has long been considered to be the foundation of good care. But is it really worth it? Are the benefits of annual care actually as great as we think? Can patients get the benefits of the yearly checkup in other ways? is what everybody questions. Keeping all this aside, has anybody thought how important it is to keep ourselves healthy? Young adults who fall in the age group of 25 – 35 and above usually think they are perfectly healthy and symptom-free and this thinking is developed because a large number of people in this age group are actually healthy. But it is not necessarily what looks healthy from outside should be healthy from inside.

Even if you feel healthy it is imperative to schedule a regular full body health check up to Screen for diseases, assess risk of future medical problems, help develop a healthy lifestyle, update vaccinations (flu shot annually and tetanus every 10 years) and also maintain a relationship with a doctor in case of an emergency illness. A head – to –toe examination will set up a baseline for your healthy life. In this age it is crucial to maintain an appropriate weight, healthy diet, maintain the level of physical activity/exercise patterns, limit tobacco/drug use and alcohol consumption. As almost the entire population of this age is a working professional, stress can play a big role while affecting the well-being of these people. Every age group has its own set of stress and challenges. For a 20-year-old, college might be devastating. Next age group may face stress in marriage and family, and later in this group, their job could add stress. Overall, stress is known as the silent killer. Hence all these factors make it mandatory to get an annual full body check-up for the above age group of people.

Marriage and employment are two things that most of them get into for more than half of their lives. Maintaining good health will definitely be of great help in maintaining the quality of these two important phases of your lives. Let us learn more about how important these check-ups are.

A pre-marital health check-up is a health analysis of the soon-to-be married couples.

This pre-employment health check-up also helps the company to hire the right candidates as they invest both time and money on them. The pre-employment health checks include both physical and psychological tests that helps identify the physical ability and psychological stability of the employee. These tests also help in identifying if the employee is addicted to alcohol or drugs, if the employee has any hearing and vision problems or if he has some mental disorder that may lead to the misuse of the powers in the organization.

  • Psychometric tests

How health checkups & early prevention of diseases can increase one’s career ability

Workplace health and safety is considered to be one of the goals of an organization. Healthy workforce has proved to reduce the absenteeism and has proved that healthy workers can concentrate better and showcase higher level of productivity too. Chronic diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and cancer do not develop overnight. They are within you from many years before they are diagnosed. Raised cholesterol levels, hypertension, obesity, poor diet and many other problems that may lead to long-term illness can be identified during annual regular full body check-ups and the employers may be able to offer help to overcome a nagging health problem.

Career is a serious constitution. When companies inform the candidates about the requirement of a pre-employment health check-up, people seeking jobs in that organization understand that the organization is serious about the workplace safety and health. The main objective of pre-employment health checks is to ensure that employees can perform their jobs safely without placing co-workers at risk. It also increases one’s career ability to a greater extent. Companies provide many monetary benefits to their employees in regards to their health, example insurance premium. In many cases, people with health problems may be considered unfit for the roles because their regular illness can hamper the productivity of the company and can also increase the company’s health insurance premium. Also, under the law of Public Health Protection, the law allows to reject the applicants who are suffering from infectious diseases who can further be a threat to other co-workers.

In India, dependency factor of the families is higher compared to any other country. A man’s career and his financial security are important for the rest of the family as much as for him. A healthy career and help you maintain a healthy family too.
