Each November, you’ll notice more mustaches, and with good reason. “Movember” has become a global movement to spark awareness about men’s health, particularly prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental well-being.
At Luxury Lifestyle Medicine™, we believe true vitality means living long and living well—and that begins with prevention, early detection, and open conversations about topics that too often go unspoken.
Why Prostate Health Matters
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men after skin cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death among men in the United States. Yet, when detected early, it’s one of the most treatable forms of cancer.
- 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime.
- The risk increases after age 50 and is higher in those with a family history or African-American ancestry.
- Many men have no symptoms in early stages, making screening essential.
Understanding Screening: What You Should Know
The two most common screening tools are:
- PSA blood test (Prostate-Specific Antigen): measures protein levels produced by the prostate.
- Digital Rectal Exam (DRE): allows a physician to assess prostate size and texture.
Screening isn’t one-size-fits-all. At Luxury Lifestyle Medicine™, we individualize recommendations based on your age, genetics, family history, and overall risk profile, because luxury medicine is personalized medicine.
Lifestyle Medicine & Prevention
Evidence shows that lifestyle choices can influence prostate health and overall cancer risk.
Our integrative approach includes:
- Nutrition for longevity: a Mediterranean-style diet rich in antioxidant foods (such as dark berries, pomegranate seeds and cruciferous vegetables) and omega-3s (walnuts, avocadoes, olive oil, salmon).
- Exercise as medicine: regular movement supports hormonal balance and reduces inflammation.
- Mind-body connection: stress management, sleep hygiene, and mindfulness support immune resilience and metabolic health.
- Regular check-ins: consistency in annual physicals and biomarker monitoring creates the foundation for prevention.
The Modern Executive’s Challenge
Many men in leadership roles prioritize business performance over personal health—until a crisis arises. Early screening and proactive care are acts of leadership too. Prioritizing your health sets the tone for your team, your family, and your future.
A Luxury Lifestyle Medicine Perspective
Prostate cancer awareness isn’t just about statistics, it’s about empowerment.
It’s about giving men the tools, data, and support to make confident choices about their health.
At Luxury Lifestyle Medicine™, our Men’s Health program integrates advanced diagnostics, hormone and metabolic testing, and precision lifestyle protocols to help you feel your strongest whether it is physically, mentally, and emotionally.
