Blue is such a powerful and compassionate color, and it’s no wonder wearing blue can show your support for Men’s Health Month. Wearing blue can help raise awareness and money to educate the world on men’s health. Wear BLUE day was created by Men’s Health Network to highlight the importance of male health.
We know you care about the special men in your lives. Brothers, father, boyfriends, spouses and even bosses will know just how important it is to take the time to visit a physician and take preemptive measures to get their health on track. The most important part of Wear BLUE day is to talk to everyone about how men need to get regular checkups and live a healthier lifestyle.
Help the men in your life start making healthier lifestyle choices. Health is something that is so precious, and raising awareness can have a ton of different meanings, from healthy lifestyle choices, annual doctor visits and education on diseases that can strike men like diabetes, heart disease and cancer. There are specific cancers that affect only men, like testicular and prostate cancer, however they should be on the lookout for every other cancer as well. A visit to the physician for a screening can test for any and all of these diseases and catch them early enough that steps can be taken to recover quickly.
Encourage everyone you know to Wear BLUE. Help promote conversations to start talking about general health with your friends and make an impact this month. You can reach the men in your life and save their lives. Starting a conversation and raising awareness is easy when you Wear Blue. Use social media to raise even more awareness by using the hashtag #showusyourblue and make the movement bigger and better than the year before.
