Visualizing Health

 This site uses different data generators to create visualizations for it's participants to better understand the concept they are participating in. I first tried the risk calculator and kept all the criteria the same, had my height at 5"4 and weight at 140 to experiment. When pressing the "show risk" button it brought me to a visualization to what my risk of Cardiovascular disease would be in the next 10 years. With these settings I was able to see that I am in the under 5% risk level. I then experimented again, keeping all the settings the same but changing my weight to 160 and pressing yes under the diabetes question. I was then given the same visual but my results show that I am 2% at risk. I found this experiment efficient in providing answers given with the assessment. The graph was made well and helped me understand what risk I would be at easily. I then experimented with the Icon Array generator, below are my results. I chose the topic high blood pressure and found that 17 out of 100 people like me will develop high blood pressure in the future. I found this website very useful and would potentially use generator's like these in the future when needing an answer to something efficiently.
