As black men we got to start going to the doctor more. This graphic is sad man

Take care of your health brehs! Get 8 hours of sleep every night and eat right. I just started fasting a few days ago, and it already made a difference.

Also, schedule your doctor appointments regularly. Im about to schedule mine right now.

We don't realize how much we can change when we take matters into our own and hands, so we need to be proactive with our health.

Fasting is a cheat code but nobody here wants to have mature discourse on it

Americans in particular eat too much too often

Why do we have the highest rate of all Cancer diagnoses? I understand more checkups will allow them to catch it quicker and increase the survival rate. But why exactly do we get it more than others?

Also doesn't mention the different types of cancer so one could have a much higher number than others and throw everything off. Like for example lung cancer. Do more black men smoke than the others? What about the other cancers? There's gotta be some factor that they aren't mentioning. It's too broad a data.

What's the story behind the motor vehicle deaths?

shyt cost too much. People out here getting billed for filling out paperwork in the ER waiting rooms and shyt.

Free Clinics all around, breh. Pay according to your income per visit for routine check-ups and prevent yourself from getting a big bill from being hospitalized for something preventable......or dying from it.​

Both my parents were on high blood pressure medicine at my age. All my numbers are perfect. Same genetics, only difference is I eat healthy and workout atleast three times a week.

I believe a lot of people miss the fact that their parents set them on the path to their eating habits.. If you eat totally different than your parents, then you can curb the genetics side to generational curses

Yea my Jamaican professor told me she never allowed her kids to drink soda and they naturally don’t like it.


My mom always thought us never to eat canned food and till this day I walk past canned goods.

Tell black men to be obese for 40 years. Be big brutes hit the gym get big muscles. Watching your weight is for everybody else but the black man has to be the big brutes. The biggest characters needs to be black men, Black Panther needs to be bigger then the Hulk, Static Shock needs to be as big and strong as Superman.

Black men be obese!!! Get your weight up!!!! Lift weights, this is how you win!!! Use Steroids!!

All that bad advice we gave ourselves and continue to give ourselves, of course we would have the worst health, big muscles never meant good health.

Protect black women tho, let's focus on just black women. No other issues right. Let's pick the next wave of black male actors based on how big they are to really sell heart disease to black boys growing up.

Everyone out here has to take good care of themselves, eat clean, get in the gym , drink water. Do these things and the likelyhood of you making it to old age increases massively

Cardio and eating fruits/veggies is vastly underrated. Too many brehs trying to be built like linebackers, and not enough on cardio to keep the legs and heart pumping healthy. Being a brolic scary dude comes at a price. Even Deebo died from that.

Cardio, fasting, no sugar, sleep, & good diet is the keys you need.

I probably go to the dentist more than anything. I get my bloodwork done yearly. Exercise and eat right.

My grandfather and uncles lived into their 80s and 90s so I hope to keep it that way with me.

The real truth is the food is whats killing us. Like 80%of the people 50+ in my family are type II, high blood pressure, high cholesterol or all the above. All these things are preventable by just changing your diet.

I went to my grandparents and they were literally eating fried food everyday I was . I could even drink the sweet tea because it was too fukken sweet.

My mother's excuse is "It runs in our family"

I'm not close to my biological father's side, it's just started to happen more recently, but I found out that my grandfather from my father's side died at 82 and was a chain smoker. My uncles from that side died at 87 and 95. My grandmother on that side is still alive. Nearly 90 and getting signs of dementia but as far I learned she worked out a lot in her life.

Meanwhile my grandfather on my mother's side was an alcoholic. Died of cirrhoses at 57. My grandfather is 82 but is diabetic and have high blood pressure. She has good genes but she ate horrible growing up and her quality of life has been greatly affected. My uncle (her brother) dips, eats bullshyt all the time and is a diabetic at 51.

Kind of pisses me off thinking about it.
