However, the biggest problem with men is that they consider only physical or external health as men's health. Several surveys and researches have shown that men consider physical health as a measure of their health. This is very outdated but unfortunately, it is also the mindset of the young generation of men. They consider spending hours at the gym as the highest indicator of health. While it is true that physical fitness and flexibility are important, it is not enough.
Mental and emotional health are equally important for overall good health. However, due to lack of health education, showing off and social media posts have gained prominence and are considered a healthy way of living. This mindset needs to be done away with as soon as possible. This may also be the reason why mental disorders do not leave scars but hurt inside. Hence, nowadays we are seeing a rapid rise in mental disorders like insomnia, depression and anxiety among teenagers and middle-aged men.
This is due to the increasing awareness of mental health as people actually go to a counselor or psychiatrist when they need help. A few decades ago, this was not the case.

This teaches that any wealth is worth less than the investment in health that one makes. Your emotions, your thoughts, your creativity, intelligence, your decision-making, your behavior and everything else will be affected when you are depressed. In some cases of depression, the person may become self-destructive and so will the people around them such as family and friends.
This disorder may not be known to everyone as it is related to the intimacy of life. But in the life of an adult man, general health includes intimate health in addition to physical and mental health. If a man has to take Cenforce 150, he cannot be called healthy. In erectile dysfunction or ED as it is called in common parlance, a man is unable to have sexual intercourse due to a weak erection.
In the case of disorders, we actually have to take medications to cure them. But most importantly, men need to become aware and conscious of their health. They need to start making healthy choices and be ready to make sacrifices for their health. This requires discipline, a willing mind and rock-solid determination. Now is the time to put the famous saying “health is wealth” into practice.
