5 Health Checkups You Should Avoid After 70 That May Harm You More Than Help!

Описание: 5 Health Checkups You Should Avoid After 70 That May Harm You More Than Help!

Are some routine health checkups unnecessary — or even potentially harmful — after age 70? In this video, we explore five medical tests that may not always provide benefits for older adults and, in some cases, could lead to overdiagnosis, stress, or unnecessary procedures. We explain how age, overall health, life expectancy, and individual risk factors influence whether certain screenings are helpful or not. You’ll learn about the concept of risk vs. benefit in preventive care, why guidelines sometimes change with age, and how to have informed conversations with your doctor. This video is not about avoiding medical care, but about understanding when certain tests may need careful consideration. If you or a loved one is over 70, this educational guide can help you make more informed decisions about health screenings and preventive care.
