• RealAge.com: This is one of my favorite websites. You can take the RealAge Test, which calculates your “health age” and compares it with your chronological age. According to their website, over 29 million folks have taken this test! The test also provides customized tips to “get healthier and grow younger”. They also send out frequent healthy living tips – some of the best that I’ve seen. www.realage.com
• Stop Smoking Quit Lines Quit lines throughout the country are staffed by professional counselors who customize their response to each client’s needs. This service is free of charge. Some quit lines also assist callers in gaining access to free or low-cost pharmacological agents to aid in quitting. The National Quit Line Number, which serves as a portal to quit lines in the various states is 1-800-QUIT-NOW.
