Months After Life-Altering Diagnosis, Alex Rodriguez Starts Massive “Social Media Campaign” to Spread Awareness Among His 4.1 Million Instagram Following

Alex Rodriguez has taken a step forward to fulfill his oath to fight an alarming disease. A-Rod’s fitness addiction is renowned. Though it could not save him from the life-altering disease, it helped him overcome the difficult time successfully. Despite his thorough care of his health, an alarming disease changed his life. The shock was sudden, but A-Rod took it in a positive manner. While, generally, people ignore such situations, A-Rod took his situation to start an awareness campaign.

In June 2023, the MLB icon shared that during a regular check-up, he was diagnosed with gum disease. Given that the gum disease is common and not life-threatening, people mostly ignore it. But A-Rod is not among them. He immediately started reaching out to his followers to inform them of the symptoms and cure. This inspired him to start a unique campaign by joining forces with a renowned billionaire company.

Alex Rodriguez Started A New Campaign To Fight Gum Disease

A recent A-Rod’s Instagram post showcased the millionaire’s new initiative. While his gum disease awareness campaign is already renowned after he posted the cure and causes on Instagram, he has now joined hands with OraPharma, a vertical of the Johnson & Johnson. The legend has become the face of their ‘Cover Your Bases’ campaign and is promoting the new social media awareness program.

In June this year, Alex was chosen to serve as the brand’s ambassador to promote their gum care antibiotic, Arestin. Once this news came to light, the GM of the company said they want the ex-Yankee to “share his experience not only to help educate patients about this often misunderstood and underdiagnosed disease but also to encourage them to talk to their dentist.”

The campaign comes with a dedicated website of Arestin. The site features A-Rod, who shares information about the symptoms and cure of gum disease and directly addresses the drug. However, that’s not the only thing Rodriguez suffered through. Back in 2022, A-Rod had another health issue that bothered him for long.

A-Rod Had Another Severe Issue Last Year

Diseases are inevitable in people’s lives. One can’t completely avoid diseases, no matter how much one takes care of their health. Similarly, last year in March, the Yankees legend shared his eyesight issue with his audience and asked for some help and suggestions.

Recalling how he was known for his eyesight back in 2010 and 2015s, A-Rod conveyed that currently he cannot check his texts or e-mails. However, the legend even joked about not being able to tell whether he has an iPhone or a BlackBerry.

Nonetheless, the latest campaign clearly shows that A-Rod is brave enough not only to deal with his problems but also to make them a medium to save people from these life-altering diseases.
