• Which diseases does Megan have risk factors for?
• Could Megan be diagnosed with any diseases based on these results? If so, which disease(s)?
• What lifestyle interventions could you recommend to Megan to improve her health? General answers like a healthy diet and exercise are not sufficient. Use your accumulated knowledge to help you. This may mean reviewing previous lectures or notes as not all of the answers are provided in the Diet and Health lecture.
