Everyone’s lives seem to be hectic these days. Men’s bodies have personal, unique needs that will require attention, but they aren’t that difficult to master.
Here’s how to make sure you’re taking the best care of you.
1. SUPPORT YOUR PROSTATE
When you’re in your 20s, 50 seems far down the road. But you shouldn’t wait until the obligatory 50+ check-up to care for your prostate. No matter what your age or medical history, you should be taking protective measures to promote the health of this important gland. There are prostate health supplements that contain both saw palmetto – which supports normal prostate function, healthy urinary flow and overall prostate health – and Lycopene, which supports your prostate as well as heart health.

2. TESTOSTERONE IS AS IMPORTANT AS YOU THINK IT IS
It’s sad but true: men produce less testosterone as they age, with a gradual but steady decline typically occurring after age 30. That impacts many aspects of the body, including your sex drive, sperm production, muscle strength and even possibly your bone density. Make sure you’re paying attention to testosterone now, no matter what age you are, and consider supporting healthy testosterone levels and sexual health with testosterone supplements.

3. PUT A MULTIVITAMIN ON YOUR CHECKLIST
A good quality multivitamin works with your diet to help you fill the nutritional gaps, which most of us have, no matter how healthy we think our diet is. Multivitamins help to supplement a healthy diet with a combination of calcium, magnesium, and vitamins A, C, D and E. The GNC range contains expertly designed formulas to match your wellness goals.

4. SAY YES TO FISH OIL
Heart health is an extremely important component of overall health, but it’s not something you can gauge regularly by looking in the mirror or standing on a scale. Knowing that certain common activities – like sitting at a desk all day at work – may not support heart health, consider other ways to keep this vital organ functioning at its best. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids such as EPA, DHA, and GLA have been shown to support heart, joint, and eye health. They aren’t naturally made by your body, but they can be found in certain fish, like salmon. To optimize your intake, 4 to 6 meals of fatty fish a week are recommended. Fish oil supplements can also provide the benefits in a convenient and safe way, not only for heart health but also for joint health, skin health and more, all in a gel-coated capsule. The GNC fish oil supplement range is purified, so no worries about the fish-related toxins that you might worry about when you’re out for sushi.

5. PROTEIN ALL DAY
No matter how much you work out, maintaining healthy muscle should be important to you. Healthy muscle supports many aspects of health. Protein is the key to building and rebuilding muscle when it breaks down. You may already enjoy plenty of protein-rich foods like lean meats or a go-to protein shake, but make sure you get a steady diet of protein across the day’s three main meals with up to 30 grams each at breakfast, lunch and dinner, depending on your age, weight and activity level.
