The note also pointed out that Trump was hospitalized only once, as a child of 11 years old for an appendectomy. The U.S. government has vowed to go after those responsible for leaking DNC emails in recent months.

“The results of Trump’s medical, which he said he had several weeks prior to the show, state he is 236lbs (16st8lbs) and stands at 6’3”, giving him a BMI of 29.1 – which the NHS states is overweight.
“I feel the same age as him”.
He said he could not play golf as often as he’d like, but occasionally found time to play with Tom Brady, New England Patriots quarterback. His mother died in her early 90s, he said, and came from an exceptionally long-lived family, he said. Donald Trump does, too.

Both candidates appear to be following the lead set by President Barack Obama, who released a letter summarizing his health history in 2008 when he was running for his first term. The letter did not offer any information about a mental health assessment. In terms of high-density lipoproteins (HDL), Clinton was at 56 and Trump’s “good” cholesterol was at 63.
