SUMMARY:June Is Men’s Health Month!!!
DESCRIPTION:\nJune is OUR month fellas! \nA time to celebrate FATHERS and MEN, UGW is promoting a month-long dive into Black men, our role in the Black family, our role as Fathers, and our role as community Leaders. We will look at the factors (SDOH) that affect/afflict male health and talk about solutions that can help to rebuild strong Black men and strong Black families. \n\nMen may be perceived as the physically stronger gender because they are bigger and more muscular than women. However, when it comes to health, it’s the other way around. Men are more likely to experience chronic health conditions earlier than women because of different lifestyle, biological and social factors. These include smoking, alcohol and substance abuse, stress, hormones, metabolism, genes, lack of exercise, unhealthy diet and lack of regular checkups.\nThe life expectancy of males in America is 76.1 years. This is five years less than the life expectancy of women which is 81.1 years. The numbers may be intimidating, but they can help you start making necessary changes for better health and a longer life. Having said that, let’s take a look at some of the most common health conditions affecting men, in no particular order.\nLook out for our 2nd NEW MOON, NEW YOU Celebration this month, as we encourage Fathers to come bond with your children at Cerasse Farm. Connect and commune together over food, juice, drumming, and work as we talk about LIFE, its daily challenges and its successes.\nMango Madness is also back at Cerasee Farm in June & July! Join us as we celebrate the rich history of the mango in OUR culture. UGW will host many activities during Mango MADness including mango eating contests, mango tastings, mango pie making contests, and so much more. Check out the UGW social media for more updates.\nPeace Folks!\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n
