Total Score _______

I thought this was interesting . Let me know what your score is. If it is 300 or more, then statistics say that you have an almost 80% chance of getting sick in the near future. 150 to 299, about a 50% chance of getting sick. less than 150 only about a 30% chance of geting sick.

Interesting statistics.

Mine was 516. I really need to destress. So I think that as I red this book I will post advice about it on here maybe once a week. Maybe it will help someone else too.

Love and Prayers.
