Future of Somali Male Health In The Diaspora

[star]

Somali fathers only take health advice death by death. If a friend dies from liver failure, they start to take liver supplements. If a friend gets glaucoma, they walk around with a carrot.

Yeah unfortunately getting them to actually listen is an issue

Somali Fathers only listen by seeing friends die.

The middle/upper class people tend to be slim and health conscious as opposed to the poor, in the latter category you don't have a choice but to eat what you get as good food costs significantly more money.

Hence if your poor your either malnourished or obese from eating all those cheap cookies/coke/bread, the real shame is on those that can afford it but remain in either state.

Have you seen elderly reer miyi Somali men? A lot of them are twice times the size (height, bones etc) of your avg Somali guy who grew up in the west or grew up in a city/town in Africa.

Clearly even with just walking or some manual labour/gym Somali guys have a lot of potential.

I would be embarrassed as a Somali man if my grandfather was bigger and stronger than I was.

I actually think the average older Somali guy is healthier than his female counterpart, but more often than not she's had a boatload of kids that are a mental and physical strain. Smoking is a choice. You can stop smoking with a little willpower.

idk. i feel like i am doing well physically. people in the west have a diet high in sodium and saturated fats coupled with high carbs. having a sedentary lifestyle, drinking shah and conversing in qaxwo shops will not help with that unfortunately.

many of the older people also have diabetes.

Somali dudes don't workout. They come in three forms: Skinny as f*ck, Obese as shit, or In-between Skinny and Fat. I've never seen a Somali in the gym, and Somali males eat unhealthy. You see more Somali males in a McDonalds or Popeyes than at a Gym.

And I can't forget about the consumption of a beverage by the name of "Hennessy Cognac" or popularly known and shortened as "Henny". I myself was a former "Henny iyo Qaxwo Connoisseur", however I was able to curb that horrible beverage which caused me to move like a mule. I started drinking more water, mango juice, smoothies, and sparmuto.

I diet fairly well. Somalis just need to avoid rice, pasta and bread. Somalis have a major gluttony problem. Skiny fat is caused by high intake of gluten and carbs. That's why you see faarax with calool iyo xaga dambe for days but naf la'aan arms and legs. I eat my hilib with a salad or potatoes. We generally have extremely fast metabolisms so eating various meats won't cause harm. I also walk everywhere if I don't have to drive, and hit the gym once in awhile

You have to force them to go to the gym and stop making bariis and baasto. Skinny is always better than skinny with an calool.

I would crawl into a little hole and die if someone invited me to a Vegas pool party.
