In the run up to Father’s Day, Men’s Health Week (13th-19th June) is dedicated to raising awareness of the physical and mental health problems impacting the men in our lives. With many modern day Dad’s living high-powered lifestyles where work and family often take priority, unhealthy eating habits and lax fitness regimes can often take hold, leading to weight gain and related health issues.
