Synopsis

Studies show that black men are more likely to seek medical attention, follow a healthy diet, and take prescribed medications if there is a woman in their lives. In short, black women play a key role in keeping their men healthy. The first of its kind, THE BLACK WOMAN'S GUIDE TO BLACK MEN'S HEALTH is a comprehensive guide packed with valuable medical information, prescriptive advice, and personal stories from celebrity and non-celebrity women about their men's health issues.

Divided into chapters covering key health issues that overwhelmingly affects black men, including prostate and colon cancer, obesity, diabetes, and substance abuse, to name a few, this book provides strategies for building healthy partnerships within the home and community, as well as invaluable guidance for finding the right healthcare and health insurance providers.
