Men’s Health Month: Raising Awareness and Taking Action

June is Men’s Health Month, a time to raise awareness about the health issues that affect men and encourage them to take action to improve their well-being. Men’s health is often overlooked and under-discussed, but it’s important to prioritize it in order to live a long and healthy life. Here are some key areas of men’s health to focus on this month:

1. Mental Health
Men are often reluctant to seek help for mental health issues, but it’s important to prioritize mental health just as much as physical health. Depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions can have a serious impact on quality of life. Encourage the men in your life to seek professional help if they are struggling with mental health issues.

2. Heart Health
Heart disease is the leading cause of death for men in the United States. Men can reduce their risk of heart disease by making healthy lifestyle choices, such as eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and not smoking.

3. Prostate Health
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men, but it can often be treated successfully if caught early. Encourage the men in your life to talk to their doctor about prostate cancer screening.

4. Testicular Health
Testicular cancer is rare, but it’s important for men to be aware of the signs and symptoms and to perform regular self-exams. Encourage the men in your life to talk to their doctor if they notice any changes in their testicles.

5. Sleep
Sleep is essential for overall health and well-being, but many men struggle with getting enough quality sleep. Encourage the men in your life to prioritize sleep by setting a consistent sleep schedule, creating a relaxing bedtime routine, and avoiding screens before bed.

By raising awareness about these key areas of men’s health and encouraging men to take action, we can improve the health and well-being of men everywhere. Let’s make Men’s Health Month a time to prioritize health and wellness for all men. ExperCARE is open 7 days a week, extended hours, and accepts insurance. Walk in any time or book an appointment at any of our convenient locations today!

For the Homemade Potato Chips:

  • 1 medium Idaho baking potato
  • non-stick Cooking spray
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 baking sheets
  • parchment paper

For the Pulled Pork:

  • 1 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 1/2-3 pound lean, cut pork loin roast (all visible fat discarded)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened, plain applesauce
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoon honey
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 small onion (coarsely chopped)

Directions

For the BBQ Sauce and Sandwiches:

  2. Toss sauce with pulled pork. Fill each slider bun with about 1/4 cup pork, apple slices and red onion slices.

For the Homemade Potato Chips:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Slice potato as thinly as possible, into about 1/8 inch thin slices.
  3. Place one sheet of parchment paper on one of the baking sheets. Spray evenly with cooking spray and place one layer of potato slices. Spray another coat of cooking spray over the potatoes. Place another sheet of parchment paper. Turn the other baking sheet upside down on top of the baking sheet with the potatoes.
  4. Bake for 20 minutes. Uncover top baking sheet and parchment paper, sprinkle with pepper and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
  5. Remove any chips that begin to turn too brown before the 15 minutes is over. Let cool and serve with pork sliders.

For the Pulled Pork:

  1. In a small bowl, combine thyme, garlic powder, 1 tsp. chili powder, paprika and pepper. Rub evenly over pork. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup applesauce, 1/4 cup vinegar, honey, chicken broth and water. In crock-pot, scatter onions to cover the bottom of dish. Place pork on top of onion and pour applesauce mixture over pork. Cook on low setting for 6-7 hours.
  3. Remove meat from crock-pot and discard remaining cooking liquid. When cool enough to touch, shred pork by hand or with two forks, discarding any fat and/or bones. (Optional- remove onions with serrated spoon).
