QUICK FACTS ABOUT MEN‘S HEALTH
(October 2010 edition of To Your Health magazine)
When it comes to health, too many men don’t seem to be paying enough attention. The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) offers these sobering statistics:
- 12% ages 18 and older are considered in “FAIR” or
“POOR” health - 32% ages 20 and older are OBESE
- 31% ages 20 and older have hypertension
(HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE) - 66% ages 18 and older do not consistently participate in LEISURE-TIME PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
“Let me evaluate a couple of these statements from the CDC. There must be a huge number of 18 and 19 year old men in America if only 12% of men are in fair or poor health while 32% are obese. Being obese (35% body fat) drops you immediately into the poor health category. It makes me wonder how they determined the 12%! High Blood Pressure IS cardiovascular disease and drops you into a fair or poor range also, regardless of your fat percentage and regardless whether or not your condition is “medically” controlled. It’s still cardiovascular disease! There are 226 million people 18 and over in the US. If only 45% of those are men, then we’re talking about 100 million people here. 32% obese relates to 32 million men. 31% with high blood pressure relates to 31 million men. You can hopefully see why these statistics are sobering.
