We cannot deny the fact that almost all men take care of their car more than of their health. That’s why men die earlier than women; their lifespan is 7 years lower than that of the females.

1. Prostate cancer. It is not linked to diseases, lifestyles, or alimentation, but to age and heredity. 80 % of the eighty-year-old men have prostate cancer, even if they die of other condition. Penis cancer, almost inexistent, is determined by lack of hygiene and sexual promiscuity. Bladder cancer is triggered by smoking or contact with anilines (colorants) and petroleum.
2. Lung cancer. It is boosted by smoking, like other respiratory conditions (emphysema or chronic bronquitis), but it also can be hereditary or determined by the contact with toxic compounds at work. Combined with alcohol, smoking induces larynx cancer. In one year after quitting smoking, the risk of cancer decreases significantly.
3. Sleep apnea. The high incidence of sleep apnea among men is due to the fat accumulation around their necks when they increase weight. As muscular tone decreases while sleeping, the respiratory ways get narrower due to the fat pressure and cannot let the air pass. There are also hormonal factors. Sleep apnea affects the quality of the sleep, turning the person sleepy and irritable during the day, with high risk for traffic accidents.
4. Heart. Men are more predisposed to heart failure than women due to the testosterone. Heart health is affected by high cholesterol, smoking, alcohol, overweight, hypertension, diabetes but also heredity. Only minor consume of red wine is recommended. Saturated fats like sausages, pork, and dairy products must be replaced by vegetables, greens, fish and some red meat. Light exercising like walking rapidly one hour daily strengthens the hearth.
5. Liver cancer. 90 % of the cases are due to drinking and infection with hepatitis virus C. 10 % is determined by infection with hepatitis virus B or hereditary metabolic conditions. Also high pills intake, risky sexual behavior and hereditary factors count. Moderate alcohol consumes and vaccine against hepatitis virus B always helps.
6. Depression. Besides medical (depressive disorders, alcoholism, or chronic painful diseases) and social causes (old age, loneliness, lack of family support, stressing events) causes, the highest factor that leads to suicide in men is linked to how men experience personal difficulties.

Basically, men are more rigid, inflexible, introverted and impulsive than a woman, when a man faces a severe difficulty, he can choose the evasive way of acting and commit suicide. Men does not stand loneliness or matrimonial separation the way a woman does and usually he does not speak about his problems, so he does not free himself from his sufferance.

In addition, he lives with more stress and anguish from his work activity, generating more health conditions and anxiety states. Men should communicate more and have a life project that can be adjusted to his reality. If it is shared, it’s better. And he must assume more coherently the adaptation to other proposals which the others want to develop.
