In this episode of 'Hey Man, It's Okay,' hosts Sky Bridges and Ryan Heapy discuss men's mental health and general well-being with a licensed psychotherapist and special guest Dr. H. introduces his recent successful foray into TikTok as a soccer expert.
The discussion delves into often unspoken issues like men's use of pharmaceuticals, supplements, and the stigma around openly discussing mental health and medication side effects such as erectile dysfunction.
Dr. H underscores the importance of advocating for one's health at the doctor's office and discusses the concept of the 'prescribing cascade' in the elderly. The conversation shifts to the gut-brain connection, the role of nutrition and exercise in mental health, the benefits of a low to no carb diet, and the future of GLP-1 medications for weight loss.
Dr. H also shares insights on environmental wellness, spirituality, and his new book, 'The Seven Pillars of Wellness.' The episode concludes with a call for men to be open about their mental health and promote self-advocacy.
