Appears the male segment of the population thinks its immortal. Either that or they have a death wish. Because by and large men are guilty of a variety of deadly health sins that all but assure an early grave. A serious disconnect to be sure. If you're curious here are some things to do and/or avoid that can give you a leg up on a longer, healthier life at least.
Sleep's Optional, Right? Actually no. It isn't. Sure you can live that way. But sooner or later getting too little sleep will catch up with you. Being bad both for your looks and your health according to many studies. But you don't need me to tell you you're not as sharp mentally. And for sure you don't look bright eyed after a late night. Worse still poor sleep habits have been attributed to weight gain too.
Not a Fan of White Coats? Too many guys never get around to seeing their physician each year. Perhaps wrongly assuming no news is good news. But maybe it more demonstrates a willingness to ignore the rule about it's easier to cure problems caught sooner than later. Especially when it comes to things like your heart or prostate.
I'd Like Mine Rare Rarely would be better don't' you think? As red meat lovers set themselves up for all sorts of problems because of the fat and cholesterol they are ladling into their body. Not to mention the potential problems of toxins in the fat itself and the affect charred meat off the grill can have on your colon. Remember, absence makes the heart grow fonder. Which is another way of saying if you eat red meat less often you'll enjoy it more. And be better off because of it.
No Time to Eat Breakfast? Yeah afraid to say it but Mom was right. Skipping breakfast isn't smart. But with rush hour traffic or the need to get to the job early it may still seem like an almost good idea. Emphasis on almost. Because surely you've got time for a bowl of cereal at least to help you shine until lunch, don't you?
Spare Tires Are For Cars, Remember? Yeah that excess weight around your middle, that tends to roll over your belt, isn't a sign of healthy living either. And yes it can pile on regardless of what you do. But excess belly fat is associated with all kinds of bad things you want no part of.
Kick the Habit. Since you were looking for this one anyway I didn't want to disappoint. But as they say smoking it the most preventable cause of premature death going. Right up there on the list of causes of heart failure and high blood pressure. That aside it's just a stinky habit. One that's best not even picked up to begin with.
Clearly only you can best decide how close you wish to get to the electric fence. Realizing that a misstep and you'll be zapped like a bug in a bug zapper as some life threatening health issues descends upon you. And if cures were being offered here there would be more listening ears. But you'd still be wise to heed these warnings. Because most find life on the edge catches up with them sooner rather than later. - 31370
