Age Issues and Men’s Health
Whilst there are many health concerns that universally affect men, women and children, there are numerous health concerns that specifically affect men and their overall wellness. Issues including arthritis, cardiovascular disease, cancer of the prostate and other types of cancer, issues of sexual health, stamina and vitality all make up the top concerns that men face today. As you may have noticed, most of these conditions are age-related.
When a man ages, he is subject to many conditions that can impact his mortality. For instance, the most common cause of death in the aging man is heart related illness, whether it be heart attack, stroke, or other condition. Unfortunately, heart disease is often the result of preventable causes, such as smoking, high stress levels, and unbalanced diet in years past. As they say, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”, so maintaining your health early in your life can be quite valuable down the line. If you have doubts about this because of your age, keep in mind that it still isn’t too late to start adapting better habits.
The 2nd most common cause of death for maturing men is cancer, and the most common cancer in men is, by far, prostate cancer. No one knows exactly why this is, but one thing’s for certain- there’s an obvious parallel between prostate cancer and aging. Because of this, and because of other common prostate issues, such as BPH (Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy, or enlarged prostate) it is important to get checked yearly for prostate cancer, especially if you are over the age of.
But nevertheless, as we pointed out earlier, not all men’s health issues are age related. Men in their youth are very active. Keeping that level of energy is of great distress to men of all ages. A well-rounded, properly-balanced eating routine is fundamental to a man’s preparedness and ability to perform well on the court, at the job, even in the bedroom. It makes perfect sense that better nutrition brings about better performance, and dietary deficiencies can often bring about poor performance, decreased durability, fast fatigue, or inability to perform at your optimal levels of activity. Maintaining adequate levels of vitamins and antioxidants are important to optimal health and energy. B vitamins help prevent heart disease and stroke by dropping levels of homocysteine. Antioxidants are integral to combat the diseases of aging, to lessen oxidation of cholesterol (which can result in heart attack) and to maintain proper immune function.
Taking care of you prostate gland will positively affect your daily life in many other ways. As they say, all for one, and one for all! In other words, if one piece of your body is not working right, it can affect the rest of your body negatively, but if one component of your body is working particularly well, it positively has an effect on your entire life- how good your body feels, your sex life, even your emotional and mental health (i.e. how you react to stress).
