Men are often reluctant to come to see the doctor unless they have a specific problem. Depending on their age and family history, men can be at higher risk of numerous health problems including heart attack and stroke. The risk of these can often be decreased with a preventative health check, with monitoring simple things like blood pressure, weight, cholesterol and blood sugar levels. Please see a GP to discuss your preventative health measures in more detail.

Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer worldwide, with most cases linked to UV exposure. Early detection is essential, as it allows these cancers to be treated quickly and effectively, often with simple removal. In some cases, certain subtypes of these skin cancers can also be treated with medicated creams.

Has too much screen time become a habit for you? Breaking habits can be hard, but for this one you get the benefit of more time in your day, as well as better mental health.

Here are some simple tips to help you cut back and feel better:

• Charge your phone in another room, especially at night, to improve sleep quality
• Switch your phone to black and white. Our brains are drawn to colour, so removing it can make scrolling less appealing and reduce that instant dopamine hit.
• Make mealtimes screen free. This helps you to connect with family and loved ones face to face.

Remember: moderation is key. You don’t need to go fully off grid to notice the benefits, all it takes is a bit of mindfulness!

When you drink alcohol, it’s absorbed into your blood stream through your stomach and small intestine. It then quickly travels to all parts of your body — including the brain.

Alcohol is a major cause of death, disease, and injury in Australia. Many people drink alcohol to relax and socialise, but some people drink alcohol in amounts that are harmful to their health.
