June is National Men’s Health Month

Encourage your male patients to seek regular medical advice and early treatment for disease and injury.

Tips to provide male patients:

• 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!
• 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? Or simply eat more vegetables?
  • Set small and achievable goals and work with your doctor to make them a reality.
• Get educated
  • Use 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 CDC for information on health issues that men face.
