Physicians provided recommendations regarding diet, physical activity, and weight management, emphasizing that President Donald Trump remains in strong overall health. According to a comprehensive medical report issued by Dr. Barbabella, the president's cognitive and physical performance are excellent, and he remains fully fit to carry out all duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State.
At 6 feet 3 inches tall, Trump’s body mass index was measured at 29.7, placing him just below the threshold of 30 that medical guidelines generally classify as obese. The evaluation demonstrated strong cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, and overall physical health, with no abnormal findings identified. Trump also completed the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, scoring a perfect 30 out of 30, matching his results from examinations in 2018 and 2025.
The medical report documented minor bruising on Trump’s hands, which was explained as benign soft tissue irritation resulting from frequent handshaking combined with aspirin therapy; physicians recommended a switch to low-dose aspirin to address this. Additionally, while the president still exhibited slight lower-leg swelling related to chronic venous insufficiency—a common age-related condition disclosed last year—his physicians noted that the condition has improved.
The evaluation highlighted significant progress in Trump’s cholesterol levels, with his total cholesterol measuring 143, down from 223 in 2018. Doctors attributed this improvement to his medication regimen, which includes rosuvastatin to lower LDL cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol, ezetimibe to further reduce LDL levels, and daily aspirin. His physician noted that his demanding daily schedule of meetings, public engagements, and regular physical activity continues to support his overall well-being.
