During Draft Week, NFL Alumni Health transformed Pittsburgh into a national platform for awareness through its Health Lives Here campaign in partnership with Tollo Health.

From community activations across the city to national media moments, the initiative reached thousands — delivering education, resources, and a clear call to action: be proactive.

Rod Woodson Leads the Charge

Hall of Famer and Pittsburgh legend Rod Woodson led the charge as NFL Alumni Health Ambassador, amplifying the message across national platforms: Morning in America (NewsNation), ESPN Radio’s Unsportsmanlike, The Rich Eisen Show, SiriusXM NFL Radio, and Good Morning Football.

From interviews to engaging with fans at Point State Park, he delivered one message with urgency and conviction:

“Your health is your legacy — and it’s worth protecting.”

Addressing a Critical Health Gap: Muscle Loss

A major focus of Draft Week was raising awareness around muscle loss — especially for those using GLP-1 weight-loss medications.

In partnership with Tollo Health, we introduced Forzet™, a clinically supported medical food designed to:

  • Preserve muscle during weight loss
  • Restore cellular energy
  • Support metabolic and cardiovascular function
  • Enhance strength, recovery, and long-term resilience

This isn’t about weight.

It’s about strength — and staying strong enough to live the life you want.

But as powerful as that message was in Pittsburgh, it’s only the beginning.

Because the next opponent isn’t across the line of scrimmage — it’s one most players never see coming.

This month, we turn our focus to one of the most urgent—and most preventable — threats facing our community: stroke.
