Our first Movember is Lagos Portugal was a big success. We shared personal stories and had healthy discussions about men’s health. Keynote speakers like Ken Dorr who talked about prevention through healthy eating and the power of herbs as well as Sergio Coelho who talked about chinese medicine and acupuncture.

Many other topics came up for discussion like how to encourage men to talk about their health openly and not have the stigma that can be seen and felt all around us. It starts with sharing your stories with others that brings the community together and makes us feel less lonely when we have to face some health challenges. We are not alone in this and the support of our community is a big part of the solution.

We encourage all men to open up and share what they are going through so they can find solidarity in their path. We all are here for each other!
