Men’s National Health MonthJune is National Men’s Health Month! This month is all about encouraging themen in your life (including me, and all men out there!) to take care of their bodies by eating right, exercising, and working to prevent disease. The official symbol for the month is a blue ribbon and the purpose of Men’s Health Month is to heighten the awareness of preventable health problems and encourage early detection and treatment of diseases including cancer, heart disease, and depression.

How to Observe National Men's Health Month1. Tweak your diet

Men's Health Month is a great opportunity to change the way you eat. Cut back on alcohol this month or up your intake of healthy fermented foods like sauerkraut and kefir. You can do anything for a month, and if you do it for a month, you can do it for life!

2. Set some goals

Use this month to take stock of your health now and think about where you want it to be. Do you want to lose weight? Gain muscle? Simply eat more vegetables? Set small and achievable goals and work with your doctor to make them a reality.

3. Get educated

Take this opportunity to read about the common health issues that are specific to men and how you can prevent yourself from getting hurt! Check out the Center for Disease Control and Prevention for information on health issues that men face.

Why National Men's Health Month is Important to usBlack men have higher rates of chronic diseases and illnesses compared to other races….. Just to name a few:

41.8% have hypertension. 63.5 % have uncontrolled blood pressure. The risk of Black Men dying from low-grade prostate cancer is double that of other races. There are 178.3 per 100,000 new cases of prostate cancer among us compared to 105.7 per 100,000 new cases among the other race. Reports of us feeling sadness, depression, hopelessness, and everything being an effort. …The list goes on and on.

1. Get Checked out

If you're stressing about any symptom or even a persistent headache—it can be easy to get in a cycle of worrying about it. But going to the doctorcan do two incredible things: one, it can figure out what's wrong, but two,it can keep you from worrying! Men's Health Month encourages you to get yourself checked out so you can feel better—and stop worrying.

2 A conversation starter

Men's Health Month gets people talking about health, which gets people acting about health. Gyms get joined, appointments get made, and resolutions get promised. It's a beautiful thing. Join in!

3. An excuse for pampering

Lots of things that are good for your body are also good for your soul! Exercise. Work out, play sports. Take a walk. Consider a massage. Take a nap. It's all healthy, and if anyone asks the occasion, you have an answerready: Men's Health Month! Works for me.
