President Bush has purposely lost eight pounds since his last medical checkup, in December, and his doctors said after his annual physical examination yesterday that he was in "excellent health."
Mr. Bush, 59, remains in the "superior" fitness category for a man his age, the doctors said. They also said Mr. Bush, who exercises six times a week, was "fit for duty" and expected to remain so for the rest of his term.
No significant new health problem was detected, and findings from the physical examination and the standard laboratory tests were within the normal range, according to a statement from the team of nine specialists who examined Mr. Bush.
Mr. Bush said he was "feeling pretty good" after the three-hour checkup at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md. It was his fifth annual physical since taking office.
U.S. president released the results of high annual medical checkup July 31.  The doctors said the president was in "excellent health".

The doctors did note some minor skin lesions from spending too much time in the sun and suggested sunscreen for the President.  

It is U.S. tradition for sitting presidents to make public the results of their annual health exams.
