Lots of people over 40 have at last some mild health issues, over 60 almost everyone. Even younger people often enough have conditions they're not even aware of. So just wanted to say, don't get overly relaxed by these stats.

True and more complicated than that sounds. I was diagnosed with asthma at 28. A year and a half ago, at age 39, a pulmonary specialist rated my lung capacity at 115% compared to other males of my age and height likely due to exercising through unmedicated asthma. Undiagnosed underlying conditions shouldn’t prevent intentional efforts to be continuously healthy.
