What's Inside

Fourteen pages. Every number you need.

No fluff, no filler. Each page is a chart, a target, or a decision tree — the kind of thing you'd put in a clinic exam room, fold into a wallet, or hand to a son turning 25, 45, or 65.

01

The Numbers Page

BP, A1C, lipids, eGFR, ACR, BMI, waist — every lab and vital, with your target by age.

02

The Screening Calendar

What screening, at what age, how often — colonoscopy, PSA, low-dose CT, retinal exam, all on one page.

03

The Heart Card

Cardiovascular risk score, family history map, and the red flags that warrant an EKG today.

04

The Pressure Card

BP categories, when to recheck, when to medicate, and the four-week home log that proves it.

05

The Metabolic Card

A1C interpretation, pre-diabetes thresholds, and the 12-week reversal protocol.

06

The Prostate Page

PSA by age, the family-history adjustment, and the conversation script for the urology referral.

07

The Plate

The Black-men's-health-plate. Five food rules. The grocery list that fits on a napkin.

08

The Move

The minimum effective dose: weekly cardio, weekly strength, daily steps. By decade.

09

The Sleep

The sleep-apnea screener, the STOP-BANG questionnaire, and the four-week trial.

10

The Stress Card

The brief allostatic-load screen. What to do when the number is high.

11

The Mind Card

PHQ-9, GAD-7, and the access map — therapy, telehealth, faith-based, and crisis lines.

12

The Visit Sheet

The pre-visit prep page. Questions to ask. Numbers to bring. Red flags to name.

13

The Family Tree

The four-generation health pedigree, with the conditions that change your screening.

14

The Quick Reference

The whole guide on one page. Fold it. Pocket it. Pass it on.
