President Donald Trump's first annual physical exam of his second term revealed he is in "excellent" health, according to a report released by the White House.
The exam, conducted at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, showed Trump scored a perfect 30/30 on a cognitive test, contradicting prior criticisms and concerns.
At 78, Trump is the oldest person to be inaugurated as president. His weight was recorded as 224 lbs, classifying him as overweight, though the report emphasized his overall physical fitness.
Trump's blood pressure was reported as elevated but not yet high, and he is currently taking medications to control his cholesterol levels, which are within the optimal range.
This recent physical contrasts with previous reports and controversies surrounding Trump's health, including disputed weight figures and a dictated medical letter during his 2015 campaign.
