Throughout June, Men’s Health Month aims to encourage boys and men to take charge of their overall health by implementing healthy living decisions. This year, as the country has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, it is crucial that men get regular checkups and be aware of the risks for their age, family history, and lifestyle. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 15% of men aged 18 and over are in fair or poor health. During Men’s Health Month, help raise awareness and encourage the men in your life to take steps to enrich their health and wellness through proper screenings and care. And don't forget to participant in Wear Blue Day!
Wear Blue Day 2021
Friday, June 18th
Whether it is your friend, brother, dad, boyfriend, spouse, or boss, show them you care about them and their health by wearing blue. If Friday of Men’s Health Week doesn’t work for you then pick any other day of the year and start a fun WEAR BLUE Day at work. You can also host a WEAR BLUE Day to raise awareness around issues that impact men, such as testicular and prostate cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, gout and more. Encourage men to seek regular medical and dental checkups.
