| Health Calculators
 
 Modern medicine has become more and more objective. The need to process data has increased, especially
quantitative data (numbers). For example the 'Body Mass Index' or the target 
Heart Rate. Until recently, all these critical, somewhat difficult calculations
were unaccessible to the public. In fact, only selected physicians and healthcare professionals 
were doing them by hand. Health 101 offers a unique alternative for Health Education
and Awareness. The Program not only takes care of the arithmetics, but also, allows
simultaneous computation of several health variables in one panel with one single click.

 Cardiovascular Risk Assessment Tool
 
 Health 101 features an innovative 'Cardiac Risk Assessment Tool'. 
It evaluates Framingham Point Scores, Major Risk Factors and Metabolic Syndrome based on the National Cholesterol 
Education Program (ATP III Guidelines). This comprehensive resource allows users to calculate
the so-called Heart Disease 10-year Risk with ease and reliability 
(see sample). It also enables Users 
-for the first time- to perform 'What if' analysis of different risk-reduction scenarios.
The tool facilitates organization and management of 
custom personal health data.
