The health benefits of men growing beards.
However, the role of a man growing a beard is not only to attract the attention of the opposite sex. Chinese medicine believes that growing a beard also has many benefits in daily health care. If you don't believe me, listen to them one by one.

1, beard is an umbrella on a man's face.

From a health point of view, the beard on a man's face can cope with the weather changes in spring, summer, autumn and winter all year round. In the cold winter, a thick beard can effectively keep warm and protect the face and skin from frostbite; Then someone will say that it will be hotter to grow a beard in summer? In summer, the human body sweats a lot, and the pores at the root of the beard are much larger than ordinary pores, so the perspiration at the beard is more severe than other parts of the skin, emitting more heat and feeling cooler. In addition, with the beard blocking, harmful ultraviolet rays in the sun will not leave black spots on the face, and men with beards are less likely to suffer from skin diseases.

Men with beards are stronger.

Perhaps no one knows that the more beards a person has, the stronger his body is. This is because the hair follicle contains a chemical called biotin, which is similar to androgen, and its content level is directly proportional to the density of male beard and the content of androgen. The higher the biotin level in men, the more androgens there are. Physiologically, androgen is directly proportional to male muscle development and immunity. Therefore, men with beards are generally stronger.

Men with beards live longer.

In 20xx, Amherst, a professor of physiology at the University of Massachusetts, made such a study: the research object was 12 people, and six men with thick beards and six men with sparse beards were compared. The contents of the comparison include all the physical injuries and bacterial and viral infections they suffered in their lives. After monitoring them for several months, it turns out that men with thick beards have much stronger wound healing ability, and the resistance of bearded men to bacteria and viruses is much higher than that of the other group. This may also be related to androgen levels.

Men with thick beards are more likely to be happy.

Studies abroad show that among the 1000 men who committed suicide due to stress in recent years, 95% of the suicides have sparse beards or no beards on their faces. At present, although there is no accurate research result to explain this problem, researchers speculate that this may have a lot to do with biotin, which stimulates beard growth. Biotin can also act on the human body to produce too much "happy hormone", which is actually a kind of serotonin, which specifically transmits the happiness produced by the nervous system.

5. Men with beards can resist pressure.

Nowadays, most jobs require a clean beard, so many office workers have a clean face. Even if the company doesn't require shaving, we are often asked to shave by our families just because they think others may not like people with beards. Because now more and more people regard growing a beard as a symbol of freedom, because the beard represents a silent resistance to the accepted standard of traditional people: a good man should shave his face. Men with beards usually ignore this traditional concept, or don't take it to heart at all, which also shows that men with beards don't exert external pressure on themselves, so they live more easily.

Of course, there is a prerequisite for this question to grow a beard. If a man's beard is long, short, uneven and messy like a grass nest, I believe no one thinks it looks good. To keep a good-looking beard, regular pruning and nursing are essential.
