Men’s Health on Fox News

July 15, 2010 5 Comments

For those who do not regularly watch weekend news, what I am about to tell you may come to you as a surprise. Fox News has officially started a weekly Saturday segment dedicated to men’s health. Yes, it is incredible and a great first step toward educating the public about the prominent issues in men’s health. Few weeks ago, I had the privilege to sit down with Dr. David Samadi, who is also part of Men’s Health Network’s Board of Advisors. He ensured me that the segments will not dance around the issues just for TV entertainment, but it will cover great preventable advice along with giving the cliff notes of the subject manner. Still skeptic? Check out Dr. Samadi’s latest clips about preventing stroke and coronary heart disease on Fox News below, and then let me know what you think!

    One of the biggest challenges is getting young men to get a health check up. Too often men wait until they have a health problem before seeing a doctor.

    As a male in his early 60s I’ve got a growing number of health questions that are often not easy to address. Here’s one to consider. I’m taking testosterone shots to deal with low testosterone, how long will I need to take the shots and what happens if I stop taking them? That’s a lot to consider but I’m sure there are many men in this situation.
