    Thumbs up Shaving is good for your health - literally

    Gentlemen,
    I saw a post on B&B today that had a link to an article (written in 2003) that I found interesting. It's a prospective study laying down claims that men who shaved less than daily had a 52% higher risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) than those shaving on a daily basis. The cohort in this study was comprised of ~2,400...so, it is probably safe to assume that the results are statistically significant (although I have not carefully checked this).

    PS: Beard growth has long been considered to be useful bioassay marker for androgen activity in men.

    Here's the link: Beard growth, Shaving and CVD

    So guys...I wish you many fabulous shaves on a daily basis. Your heart will thank you for it.

    Thoughts?
