Ladies, here’s how you can help the men in your life take care of their health 💙
As the CEOs of the household, we know it’s not always easy to get them to book that check-up — but Nokwazi Mdluli has got you covered!
Here’s how to lead the way to healthier living:
1.Make the appointment. Men need regular check-ups just like women to detect and prevent health problems. Book a lunch date as a post check-up reward.
2.Plan to exercise together. Many health conditions, such as colon cancer, can be prevented by regular exercise. Go for a walk, or play a game of tennis over the weekend. Also, guys are very much into their gadgets apps and tech. There are a number of men’s health apps available today to help the man in your life to live healthier.
3.Tweak your diet. Whether the goal is to lose weight or to gain muscle; a healthy diet is the way to go. Incorporate more fruit and veg, lean proteins like fish or chicken, high-fibre foods like beans and legumes, oats and avocado, and wholegrains like brown rice and pasta, whole wheat bread and quinoa.
4.Encourage him to stop smoking. Smoking is linked to heart disease, lung disease, cancer and strokes.
5.Find ways to eliminate stress. Balance work with downtime or a fun hobby.
Talk to your partner about health related articles you come across; ask him to make sure that he’s around for a long time.
