Why Care About Men’s Health?

In comparison to women, men are more overweight; men develop heart disease about 10-15 years earlier; men have shorter lifespans; men are 100% less likely to visit a doctor for annual health exams or preventative services (CDC, 2001). These startling statistics place an emphasis on the importance of education and awareness about men’s health. Learn More
