Men’s Health Month was created in 1992 to raise awareness of the importance of proper screenings, early detection, and obtaining regular medical advice for men and to encourage young men to implement self-care and a healthy lifestyle. Studies show a significant difference between the health of men and the health of women, as men are less likely to seek treatment for preventable diseases.
I feel one of the barriers to men seeking treatment is, they always ignore symptoms. A simple change that can be made to create a healthy lifestyle for men’s health would be routine care.
Men can help improve their overall health and decrease their risk for serious diseases and illnesses with healthy diet and exercise. We encourage both at VITALIA Active Adult Community® – North Olmsted North Olmsted, OH.
Healthy lifestyles and self-care for most men start only when needed. Preventative screenings, along with regular checkups while younger, can help lead to a healthier, richer, and more enjoyable life in the later years for men.
