National Men’s Health Week
Men are courageous and strong. Ready to go to war for the country and family they love. But men are also susceptible to disease and poor health outcomes. Men are more prone to experience health conditions because they have been brought up to believe that asking for help would be seen as weak and their priority should be putting everyone first before themselves.
Leading up to Father’s Day we have National Men’s Health Week, which runs between June 14th and June 20th. This week is an amazing way to celebrate the men in your life and encourage them to take better care of themselves.
Below are some tips you can do to show the men in your life that they should start prioritizing their health. And if you’re a man, here are some things you can start doing to take the very best care of yourself:
Make That Appointment
Now is the time to make that appointment and not put it off and if you or your loved one has been putting it off go and get that check-up.
Exercise
Why not start thinking of working out on a regular basis. It doesn’t matter what you choose to do. Whether it is swimming, riding a bike, hiking, kayaking, or just jogging. The important thing is to pick an activity you love so that you will do it consistently.
Put Healthy Food in Your Body
Try to make time to throw out the processed garbage and start eating right. That means eating plenty of animal protein, organic fruits, and veggies, and don’t skimp on healthy fats!
Be Happier
Your health and well-being are just as much about your happiness levels as about what you eat or how much sleep you get (It is ideal that you should be getting at least 7 hours each night?). Make sure to make time to be part of your favorite hobbies or activities. Start that woodworking project again. Take tap lessons or learn how to scuba dive. The more fun you’re having in life, the healthier you’ll be!
