Going ‘below the belt’ for better health in men

Research Pulse podcast Season 3 Episode 1     

Global data tell a clear story: on average, men die around five years earlier than women. Better management of diseases such as diabetes and depression could help — but for this to happen, men need to seek health support earlier and more regularly.

In our first episode in Season 3, we explore the idea that going ‘below the belt’ could improve how men communicate with their doctors, leading to earlier disease identification, better management and men enjoying their lives more.

We speak to Sam Tafari about supporting men to stay ahead of the game when it comes to their health.
