The RealAge Test is Sharecare’s clinically validated health risk assessment, offered for free as part of the Blue Zones Project program. The RealAge Test health assessment measures one’s biological age compared with one's calendar or birth age. After completing the 15-minute survey, employees immediately receive their personal RealAge results with their biological age.
