Movember is here, and it's time to put men's health in the spotlight! This global campaign encourages people to raise awareness and funds for critical men’s health issues, including mental health, suicide prevention, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer. Research shows that men are, on average, dying 4.5 years earlier than women, often from preventable causes. Globally, around 10.8 million men are living with prostate cancer, and testicular cancer remains the most common cancer among young men. By engaging with the cause, we can contribute to essential conversations and initiatives that aim to improve men's health outcomes. Join 18WS in amplifying Movember's message: promoting awareness, encouraging preventive care, and providing support for men’s health, both inside and outside the workplace. For more information on men's health and how to get involved this November, please visit: https://lnkd.in/gjbYwUh #Movember #MensHealthMatters #MovemberGlobalImpact

Movember Reigns #2 "Why does men’s health matter? Well, men are often less likely to talk about their health or seek help, even when they need it. This silence can have serious consequences, especially when it comes to conditions like prostate and testicular cancers, which are some of the most common for men. Early detection is key, but it only happens if we’re aware and proactive. That’s where raising awareness comes in—by talking openly about these issues, we can break down barriers, encourage early screenings, and ultimately save lives. This Movember, let’s make men’s health a priority by starting those conversations and helping more men take action." #Movember #InCreMental #EarlyDetection #MensHealth #BeAware #BeProactive

Brothers ♂️ ♂️ November is #Movember which is synonymous with #MensHealthAwarenessMonth. ♂️ The primary message here is that men are dying much earlier due to preventable health issues. ♂️ Movember is an important time for men's health to raise awareness on vital issues such as: 📌 prostate cancer- the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men. 📌 mental health- depression and suicide rates are high. 📌 testicular cancer- the most common cancer in men aged 15-44. 🗣️ The whole essence is to help break down barriers and stigma supporting these conversations. 📌 DYK? A recent study by #Gillette revealed these alarming stats: ➡️ 75% men put off going to the doctor while showing signs of illness? ➡️ 38% men do not think it is important? ➡️ 25% men say they have no time? 📌 From awareness, comes engagement, and if enough people are engaged and stay engaged, we can, each of us, help save lives. Cancer Convos with Grace B. is: ♂️ relentlessly giving men the facts. ♂️ ensuring they change their behaviors for the better. ♂️ tirelessly listening to the men in our community and advocating for them. ♂️ encouraging them to also advocate for themselves. ♂️ ensuring that our spouses, partners, brothers, sisters, friends, and colleagues help drive the message across of going for the necessary health check-ups. 📣 Will you join us in taking action by spreading the word as strong allies? #cancerconvoswithgraceb #Movember2024 #menshealthawareness #menshealthawarenessmonth #MensMentalHealthMattersToo #prostatecancerawareness #testicularcancer #healthadvocate

In the world of quick access to everything, so many of us lack true connection and community, especially in the #cancer #lifestyle space. Loneliness is not just a worldwide epidemic but contributes to cancer mortality taking years away from our survivors. I'm on a mission to change this by creating a healthy, lifestyle-focused community where anyone can learn, engage, be inspired, and connect. Did you know that over 85% of adults make a commitment to get back on track with their diet and exercise on the Monday after a holiday? 🎉 How awesome is that? But here's the thing—almost all of these great ideas go back to vacation mode in just a few days. 😅 We get it. Sometimes it's tough to stick to healthy lifestyle changes, especially without knowing the best strategies and habits or having a supportive community. 💪 But guess what? This is your safe space where you can learn, grow, and get all the support you need. 🌱 One day at a time, one habit at a time, we're here to cheer you on every step of the way! 🙌 https://lnkd.in/g_PVYydG
