Featured Health Topic: Men's Health

For both men and women growing older can be a time of change–perhaps shifting family responsibilities, retirement, or a career change leads to some time for taking a class, volunteering, traveling, or starting a new hobby. Men can proactively take care of their health as they age with annual physicals and screenings, a well-balanced diet, exercise, and keeping up-to-date with flu shots and vaccinations.

The National Institute on Aging at NIH has a wide variety of useful, evidence-based resources. You can also find out more information about participating in clinical studies.
