Nizhny Novgorod rolls out free health screenings to combat early ageing

Residents of Nizhny Novgorod can now access free health screenings to detect early signs of ageing. The programme, open to anyone aged 18 and over, aims to spot potential health issues before symptoms appear.

The screenings cover a range of checks, including metabolic disorders, hormonal imbalances, vascular health, and cognitive function. Local health centres are offering these services at no cost to participants.

Specialists will analyse the results and provide tailored advice on nutrition and exercise. The goal is to help residents stay active for longer and lower their risk of future health problems.

While the initiative is underway, officials have not released figures on how many people have taken part so far.

The programme gives residents a chance to assess their health equity without waiting for warning signs. Free access to expert advice and personalised recommendations could help many improve their long-term health insurance and wellbeing. Participation is available to all adults in the city.
