A pilot study of older Asian adults attending UCLA community health events found that higher health literacy and lifestyle (HLL) scores correlated with college education and normal-range biometric markers including blood pressure, BMI, blood glucose, and cholesterol levels. Women significantly outscored men on HLL assessments, and those with better scores were more likely to maintain cardiovascular health targets. Despite higher health literacy, fewer than half of participants across all score ranges could accurately predict their own biometric values, revealing a critical gap between health knowledge and self-awareness. This disconnect suggests that even health-literate individuals may benefit from enhanced provider-patient communication about their chronic conditions. The findings illuminate important health disparities within the heterogeneous Asian American population in Los Angeles, where cardiovascular disease risk varies significantly by ethnicity and individual factors. While the study establishes valuable baseline data on health literacy patterns in this underserved community, it represents a preprint awaiting peer review, with results subject to change. The small pilot sample limits generalizability, but the work provides crucial groundwork for understanding how educational interventions might be tailored for diverse Asian populations.
