Men are considered the stronger sex, in general. But in medical terms, it's a very different story. When it comes to health, women live longer and stay healthier. The life expectancy gap has remained the same for the last one hundred years. Some call it the “John Wayne syndrome”. Tough it out. How can we change the perception that taking care of your health is somehow a sign of weakness? Today we discuss this and more with our guests Dr. Richard Wardrop III, Professor and Vice Chair for Education and Faculty Development at the University of Mississippi Medical Center and Kevin Farrell host and producer here at MPB Think Radio.
