President Joe Biden told Democratic governors Wednesday that he got a medical check up done amid growing concerns over his health especially after his wobbly debate and the doctors said he was in a good health. But now there are theories around it as White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Biden did not have a medical exam since February.
What Biden said on medical check up
Biden Wednesday met some governors who asked him about his health condition.Biden said he’d had a checkup just days earlier and was in good health. Reports quoting two people who were there said Biden knocked on the wood as he said that.
What White House said
White House said there was no medical check up after the debate but it was only a short doctor’s visit to check the cold. There was not a range of tests performed to assess Biden’s overall health, White House said. “The president has regular annual physicals that we release in a thorough report,” the press secretary said. “We’re going to continue to do that.”
Biden a teetotal, doesn’t smoke
Not only in the debate but Biden’s signs of ageing have been evident on several occasions — at global platforms as well. The 81-year-old was found halting during the debate raising concerns over his well-being as many claimed the President is suffering from Parkinson’s.
A Telegraph report said Biden leads a healthy lifestyle — he is a teetotal, exercises regularly and doesn’t smoke. According to his physician, Biden exercises five times a week. He also plays golf. As far as the diet is concerned, Biden prefers carbs over greens, has a sweet tooth, enjoys peanut butter and jam sandwiches, biscuits, ice cream sundaes. Other favorites include bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwiches and pizza. His choice of drink is orange Gatorade.
