So let's talk about mastering men's health...

It is a widely known fact that men are significantly less likely to see the doctor. This makes them remarkably more susceptible to many diseases, including those that only show up when all is too late but could have easily been prevented if detected early on.

This is the reason why the month of June is dedicated to Men\u2019s Health. As a member of the healthcare system and as a man myself, I think it is not just important, but essential that we have a discussion on just why and how men are significantly affected by disease just because of the gender we hold.

So join me today in our first episode on Men\u2019s Health Month as I share some essential insights on men\u2019s physical, mental, and sexual health including the problems that surround it and how to improve on each of them.

Why you need to check this episode:

• Understand why taking preventative health measures is still the best thing to do, and why it is really crucial that you take action early on;
• Learn how improving the physical aspect of your lifestyle helps you achieve better overall health; and
• Find out why it is especially difficult for men to open up on the topic of mental health and wellness, and how they can get better at handling it

\u201cIf you had to think about why you have to dedicate a whole month to men\u2019s health month, it probably could stretch to two just so you get an idea of the significance of how health care and disease have affected men and continues to affect men.\u201d\u2013 Dr. Berry Pierre

Notable Quotes:
\u201cWhen you don\u2019t do the preventative work to prevent it from happening, you\u2019re almost setting yourself up for a recipe for disaster.\u201d \u2013 Dr. Berry Pierre

\u201cIf you\u2019re thinking, \u2018What\u2019s something that could better my existence?\u2019, it\u2019s making sure that you are more physically active and making sure that you\u2019re getting your routine screenings.\u201d \u2013 Dr. Berry Pierre

\u201cBeing a man is tough\u2026 There are certain things that have been ingrained in our heads that when we get older, we don\u2019t know how to deal with the stress that\u2019s thrown at us. Because anytime stress was there, we quickly got rid of it; some moved away from it. Something happened where you weren\u2019t able to tackle that stress head-on.\u201d \u2013 Dr. Berry Pierre

\u201cThere are two things that will get a man to come to the doctor\u2019s office: One is a family member saying, \u2018You better go get that doctor\u2019s checkup, or I\u2019m going to pop in the room with you; Two is some sexual dysfunction.\u201d \u2013 Dr. Berry Pierre
