Food quality matters. The focus of HolSpanMD is to guide patients towards sustainable nutrition practices to help reduce the risk of urinary, sexual, and reproductive issues. We believe the best way to nourish your healthspan is by balancing what you eat, how much you eat, and when you eat.
Physical activity is one of the most important things you can do to improve your health and longevity. Exercising regularly improves brain activity, supports healthy muscles, reduces your risk of disease, and improves overall sleep quality. Exercise can also impact concerns related to erectile function and urinary health.
Sleep is perhaps one of the most overlooked Lifestyle Pillars, with 33% of Americans sleeping fewer than 7 hours per night. However, a good night's sleep is incredibly important for physical recovery, boosting your immune system, regulating hormones, as well as maintaining and restoring neurological pathways.
Mental and physical health are more connected than you might think. A poor mental state can increase your risk for a variety of metabolic concerns. Stress and anxiety, in particular, can aggravate urinary conditions, along with sexual and reproductive concerns. Cultivating a positive mental state is important to your overall well being.
Daily habits affect physical health. Choices like water intake and device usage impact well-being. Our experiences and environment perception also influence our lives. Substance abuse, negative experiences, and mindsets harm us. Developing healthy habits around sleep, diet, exercise, substance use, mindset, and experiences strengthens routines and healthspan.
It may surprise you, but your relationships and the connections to those around you play a key role in your metabolic health. The same way health concerns can impact relationships, positive or negative relationships can have a significant effect on your urinary, sexual, and reproductive health.
