Half a million people in Sweden to receive questions about food, stress and alcohol

Half a million people in Sweden will receive a letter with a lengthy questionnaire from the Public Health Agency over the next few days.

The national public health survey "Health on an equal footing" aims to provide knowledge about health and well-being among people aged 16 and older. The questions cover many aspects of people's lifestyles: safety, physical and mental health, stress, diet, alcohol and much more.

"With the help of the survey, we can discover differences between groups. The more responses in each group, the better the opportunities to identify what needs to change for good health in the entire population," says project manager Pi Zetterquist in a press release.

The survey is conducted every two years and is a collaboration between the Public Health Agency of Sweden and the country's regions.
