New Medical Article: The Silent Epidemic: Why Men Ignore Their Health
If you’re like most men, you probably push through aches, skip checkups, and assume you’ll deal with problems later. Guys, you’re not alone.

Studies from the Cleveland Clinic show that over 60% of men avoid seeing a doctor even when something feels wrong.

The reasons vary, but they include:
•Cultural conditioning: Many men are raised to “tough it out” and view seeking help as a sign of weakness.
•Busy schedules: Work, family, and responsibilities often push self-care to the back burner.
•Fear or avoidance: Some men would rather not know if something is wrong.
•Lack of awareness: Early signs of chronic conditions like heart disease or diabetes often go unnoticed.

Ignoring your health doesn’t make problems disappear, but it can make them worse.

Men’s Health Awareness Month is a reminder to make your health a priority. Learn why men neglect their health, the top health concerns, and how to take action.

While you’re out there looking for the perfect gifts for your littles remember that according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, 251,700 toy-related injuries were treated by hospital emergency rooms and urgent care offices around the U.S.

Toy-related injuries include choking, suffocation, burns, lacerations, fractures, and eye injuries.

Common causes involve small parts, long strings, sharp edges, and falls from riding toys like scooters and bikes. Drowning and lead poisoning are other serious risks.

NEW MEDICAL ARTICLE: Why Every Woman Deserves a Certified Menopause Provider

Women between ages 40 and 60 experience a time of transition physically, emotionally, and hormonally and it isn’t easy. If you are navigating perimenopause or menopause, having the right guidance from a certified menopause practitioner can make all the difference in how smoothly the transition goes.

So, let’s explore why women, like you, should consider seeing a certified menopause practitioner, what such a specialist does (and how this differs from traditional gynecological care), and how hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can be part of a balanced care plan.

I fully endorse Make Wellness products and RIGHT NOW you can access Black Friday Deals without waiting for Friday. Save $ on a 30-day supply of RESTORED & CALM .

Here’s why I love it.

Sleep isn’t a luxury; it’s a biological necessity. Modern life keeps our cortisol high and our minds overstimulated. This affects our physical health, mental clarity, emotional balance, and overall vitality. It can impact every aspect of our next-day performance.

This much is clear—we’re missing out on sleep, our foundation for wellness. Not just any sleep, but deep, restorative sleep, which quietly works behind the scenes to keep your body and mind functioning at their best.

If you’re seeking a true upgrade to your wellness routine, it’s time to give sleep the attention it deserves.
