Black men die nearly 9 years earlier than white men in America. It is not genetics. It is habits, silence, and denial.

In this AfroFit Rant, Dr. Albert Takem breaks down the top 5 self-sabotaging habits keeping Black men overweight, hypertensive, and underdiagnosed. From late-night hustling and silent stress to "healthy" smoothies that are really milkshakes - this episode is a mirror and a wake-up call.

If you are serious about reclaiming your health - or helping the men you love - watch this start to finish. Which one are YOU guilty of? Drop it in the comments.

NOTE: In this episode, I referenced a 9-year life expectancy gap between Black and white men. While that was accurate in older CDC reports, more recent data places the gap at approximately 5 to 6 years. Regardless of the exact number, the pattern remains unacceptable and avoidable. Let us change it.
