Why Men Avoid the Doctor: The Data Behind Men’s Health with Dr. Elliot Justin


Listen Later

This Movember, I wanted to look at something we don’t talk about enough: men’s health.

In this episode of Return on Wellness, I sit down with Dr. Elliot Justin, MD, FACEP to look at the data on why men avoid the doctor, what screenings actually save lives, and how lifestyle medicine connects the dots between prevention, performance, and longevity.

We get into:• The cultural and social habits that keep men from asking for help• What science says about testosterone, stress, and sleep• Real numbers on heart disease and preventable illness• How nutrition and exercise can truly change healthspan• Simple steps any man can take to take charge of his health

I hope this one inspires you to check in, speak up, and start seeing your health as an investment, not a chore.

Listen in and share it with the men in your life who might need the reminder.
