Book excerpt: Health Coach/Chef LaRue Palmer has a unique approach to health in general, and men's health particularly, based on his experiences coaching individuals to optimal health using nutrition and lifestyle modification. Imminently qualified to instruct his clients how to eat and live well, he writes about the foundational aspect of understanding why one should strive to live healthily as you age. Men, especially those with families, bear a particular sense of responsibility to provide for them. However, their sense of responsibility does not extend to maintaining their own health in many cases. As a result they end up become a liability to their family when they fall ill, or struggle with poor health. It affects their ability to go to work everyday, or even live an active life with a wife or children. Author LaRue Palmer takes men of this type to their "pain point" in an effort to help them realize that their view of masculinity is part of the problem. Believing that they should ignore health symptoms and tough it out because that's what men do, is an example of bad masculinity. Men have a life expectancy that is five years less than women on average, and it is not due to simply being male, but is due to a distorted sense of masculinity according to the author.Wellness is brought into question, as men often feel they are healthy if they haven't had to go to the hospital other than for an injury. At a certain age, this negligence towards health maintenance catches up with men, and now they are facing their worst fears. Mortality. Of course this could be avoided if more men were proactive about their health and made regular visits to the doctor. Man Cave of Health exposes these fears, and offers sound insight and solutions on how to avoid this predictable, yet avoidable scenario so many men experience.
