Doctor's warning after 'exact age' deadly diseases are likely to appear revealed

The precise age deadly diseases are most likely to "manifest" has been revealed.

The Diary of a CEO podcast host Steven Bartlett was speaking with Dr Vonda Wright when he shared his research into the average age at which people are most likely to develop potentially fatal diseases.

They include heart disease, lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and breast and prostate cancers.

He analysed this data alongside the mortality rates for each disease, leading him to conclude: "62.94 years old is the exact age that on average, I'm going to get one of these [diseases]."

Dr Wright, an orthopaedic sports medicine surgeon, confirmed the accuracy of this data, explaining: "Those are when they manifest, you may have them before then, maybe you never knew it. "I have people say to me when I ask them their health history, 'What medical problems do you have?' And they're like, 'I don't have any'. Only because they've never been to a doctor.

"Or, maybe they've been diagnosed but they haven't gotten so bad that they're not spending three days a week in the doctor's office, or maybe they are sick."

"Those three categories right, but your chat GPT data is correct, that is when it shows up. That corresponds to when the average person retires," she warned. "So just when you start thinking you have time to live the life that you envision, you're saddled with health problems that you have not taken care of."

Stressing the importance of addressing health issues early on, the doctor emphasised that the 40s are a critical time for getting one's health in order.

"Whatever the circumstances are, between 40 and 63, you have time to course-correct, but if you decide at 63 to pay attention, it is much harder," she explained.
