President Trump’s latest physical stuns Washington as doctors confirm his “exceptional” health, revealing a cardiac age 14 years younger than his real age — a medical result few achieve even in midlife
President Donald J. Trump has once again silenced his critics with a new medical report declaring him in “exceptional” health, including a cardiac age 14 years younger than his actual 79 years. The October 10, 2025, examination, conducted by the White House physician, Capt. Sean P. Barbabella of the U.S. Navy, found that Trump’s cardiovascular and metabolic metrics continue to show signs of youth and resilience far beyond expectations for someone of his age. The report, publicly released by the White House late Thursday, emphasized that the former president’s physical and neurological performance remains strong, with no medical restrictions recommended for his schedule or activity.
According to the official memo, the assessment included comprehensive metabolic, cardiac, and neurological testing, along with preventive health screenings and updated immunizations. Among those were the seasonal influenza vaccine and a COVID-19 booster, both administered as part of standard international travel requirements. The cardiac evaluation used advanced electrocardiogram-based measurements to determine the “cardiac age,” a scientifically validated metric assessing cardiovascular vitality relative to chronological age. Trump’s cardiac results, the physician noted, placed him in a range typical of someone in their mid-60s — a finding the memo described as “evidence of excellent overall cardiovascular health.”
The news immediately generated strong reactions across political circles and social media. Supporters hailed the results as proof of Trump’s durability and energy, traits that have long been central to his public image. “He works harder and sleeps less than most people half his age,” one senior campaign aide told Fox News Digital shortly after the release. “The man is tireless — and now the science backs it up.” The report also comes just months after Trump completed another physical in April 2025, which showed similar results, reinforcing what doctors have called “consistently above-average health markers” across multiple categories.
Trump’s physician, Capt. Barbabella, wrote that the former president “continues to demonstrate excellent overall health” and “maintains a demanding daily schedule without restriction.” The doctor’s statement added that all laboratory results and screenings fell within healthy ranges and that Trump’s mental sharpness and physical stamina remain fully intact. According to sources close to the White House medical unit, the former president’s exercise regimen, portion-controlled diet, and disciplined rest schedule have contributed to maintaining optimal cardiovascular performance.
Medical experts unaffiliated with the White House have also noted that cardiac age can be a meaningful measure of long-term health outcomes. “A younger cardiac age means the heart has retained elasticity and efficiency,” explained Dr. Samuel Reeves, a cardiologist at Johns Hopkins University. “If validated by repeated testing, a result showing a cardiac age more than a decade younger than the individual’s real age would place that person in a very low-risk category for age-related cardiac events.”
For Trump, who has often faced scrutiny over his age and energy levels, the report serves as a powerful counter-narrative to critics who have questioned his ability to sustain the pace of a national campaign. Those familiar with his daily routine say he typically rises before dawn, often engaging in calls and briefings by 6 a.m., followed by multiple public events and late-night strategy meetings. “He’s simply built differently,” a longtime adviser commented. “He doesn’t slow down.”
This new evaluation not only reaffirms the April report’s findings but also further distances Trump from concerns that have surrounded other aging politicians. The White House physician’s detailed summary, emphasizing excellent performance across metabolic, cardiac, and neurological domains, has been described as “among the strongest clean bills of health ever issued to a sitting or former president.”
As reactions pour in, many observers see the timing of the release — just weeks before a series of major international appearances — as a strategic move to project strength and vitality. Whether viewed through the lens of politics or medicine, the takeaway remains the same: President Trump’s latest physical paints a portrait of a man whose health, stamina, and heart appear far younger than the calendar suggests.
