One should also take regular blood tests, at least yearly, to keep track of certain health markers that you wouldn't want outside reference ranges. Some examples would be vitamin D (VERY common to be deficient in vit D), HDL, LDL, iron, electrocytes and markers directly related to organ functions. Blood pressure is also a very big one that a lot of people take for granted. There are so many things that affect blood pressure both positively and negatively, so one should really keep an eye on it.

I totally agree we could avoid so many decease if we try more to anticipate problems instead of waiting them to declare.
Modern medecine is so focus to handle the consequence and no to treat the cause.
We also like to invest money in goods but not so much in health wich is ridiculous.
That's because modern medicine is highly reliant on income. What would doctor's and pharmacies do if people weren't sick anymore?
I completely agree, we spend so much money on materialistic things, but not our own body. In the same way, we learn so much about everything around us, but very little about our own bodies and how they work. It's a disgrace.
