Men and Their Health
When it comes to men's health, the statistics tell an alarming story. Men are more likely to die earlier than women and are more prone to a whole range of illnesses. Why is it that men in general have such a poor attitude towards monitoring and maintaining their health? How well are we equipping our young boys for adolescence and adulthood?
'The M Factor' lays the facts on the table about the real issues in men's health: heart attack, cancer, suicide, accidental injury, stroke, obesity, alcoholism, prostate problems, smoking, impotence, sexually transmitted diseases, domestic violence, lifestyle factors, communications problems.
'The M Factor' explores ways for men to take responsibility for their own health. Practical, commonsense health tips are provided throughout this down-to-earth and readable book, as well as interesting case histories and anecdotes. Comments from men of all ages provide extra insight into the importance of being aware of your body and the warning signals of ill health.
