Summer is finally here! This June, LI Integrated hopes that you get up and get active in the beautiful weather. Your health is important, and June is the perfect time of year to use the weather to your advantage! Therefore, it’s important to raise awareness on how men all around the world can work out, eat right, and have fun in a safe and productive way. Join LI Integrated in celebrating Men’s Health Month and learn about the many ways that you can stay safe this summer!
Keep Active:
Being sedentary is no way to keep healthy! Get out there and get moving, as physical exercise is what’s going to keep your body strong! Staying inactive can prompt diabetes, heart disease, and even malignant growths like prostate cancer. To avoid these illnesses, make a plan and stick with it. You can start a personal exercise routine and stick with that to see results, or get some friends together and enjoy some sports activities! Either way, find out what works best for you and make a point to stay on track.
Eating Right:
Keeping up with a good diet is one of the most critical pieces of keeping healthy. Try to keep your daily intake levels of fatty tissue and dairy low while maintaining calcium and vitamins instead. A good way to do this is to stick with natural fruits and vegetables, a feat only accomplished by 1 in 10 adults (2017 CDC study). Here are some delicious options that can fit in nicely to your next meal plan:
- Brown rice.
- Nuts.
- Eggs.
- Lean red meat.
- Avocado.
- Shellfish.
- Cherries.
- Soy.
- Bananas.
Be Aware:
Know your own body: There are many illnesses and diseases that men suffer from disproportionate rates. The highest of these killers is heart disease, where 1 in 4 men die every year (2013 CDC Study). Additional high-risk issues include the likes of sprains, stroke, diabetes, prostate cancer, and much more.
