Every day it seems like there’s a new supplement being presented as the cure-all ingredient to help improve men’s health.

Now there is some exciting new research showing Pycnogenol®’s benefits for strengthening erectile function in men.

While I've been a long time fan of another protein shake brand, when the folks at Iconic Protein contacted me I was immediately intrigued. While most brands have chocolate and vanilla... they had the staples plus unique flavors such as Cacao Greens and Tumeric Ginger. I was a bit nervous on my first sip because I wasn't sure what to expect. Sure, it was unique... but would it be good?

Ok, so valentine's day was last week and for most of us we have a partner to celebrate, honor and cherish... hopefully, one who will reciprocate our care and attention on March 14 for "Steak and a BJ Day". For those guys out there that don't have a partner to celebrate with, maybe it's time to try something different. Sex toys for men have evolved by leaps and bounds over the past decades from "inflatable dolls" to some of the most advanced technology on the market today.

However, it is a critical part of our body and so it's important to both get it checked as well as work to keep it healthy and operating correctly. That's why I like to support men's health efforts to raise awareness and create a conversation around it. Apparently so does Bill Engvall, so we got the opportunity to chat about why this is important to him recently.

Now that a new decade is upon us it is time for a fresh start, and most of us have already set goals to get rid of that Christmas belly for the next few months. A new year is always a great chance to form better habits, and going on a dietor losing weight is often the first on everyone’s list.

You’re exhausted from sunrise to sunset and then have to do it all over again the next day.

When it comes to men’s health issues, there is one area that, to many, is still deemed taboo. Masculinity is often defined by virility and the strength of our erections. It's part of art and culture since pre-history and modern men (and women) will continue this tradition despite what media and well-meaning individuals might try to suggest.
