Why It Matters
Health IQ pioneered the science in insurance to prove that a High Health IQ correlated with a lower risk of heart disease and diabetes.
Created by the Best
Health IQ assembled a team of the nation’s leading medical, health, and fitness experts to create this cutting edge assessment.
What's in the Quiz
The Health IQ Quiz tests your knowledge across a complete spectrum of health and lifestyle subjects.
How it's Different
Health IQ’s quiz is not a self-assessment, we do not ask you how many times a week you exercise, instead we ask you questions that only somebody who exercises all the time would know.

Tested and Proven
Health IQ has been calibrated using the over 10.2 million Health IQ quizzes that have been completed. We’ve longitudinally tracked this data and created the largest new health literacy linked mortality table in the world.

Quiz Results
By analyzing our proprietary data from the Health IQ Quiz, we have observed the following correlations between Health IQ and health outcomes.
Please note: correlation does not imply causation and all results have been controlled for confounding variables like age and gender.
Longevity
A well-rounded foundation of health knowledge correlates to a significant reduction in mortality risk even after controlling for covariates like age and gender. (p value = 2.5x10-24)
