The relationship between beard and lifespan has always been said. In the mainstream view in China, it is believed that "the longer the beard means the longer the life", so many portraits of birthday stars are mostly the image of a kind old man with outrageous eyebrows.
However, beards are not completely considered by people as "the symbol of longevity". Many people on the Internet believe that if a male beard grows too fast, it will have a negative impact on lifespan. There are even special studies to verify this conjecture. Is this true?
A man's beard grows fast and will really make lifespan Is it shorter? The research team of
The University of Bristol, UK, , tracked and searched more than 2,000 male subjects for 20 years and obtained data results: among all the men participating, more than 800 died after 20 years, and shaved about 40% every day; and about 30% did not shaved.
Frequent shaving means that the beard may grow faster than its peers, but it is not accurate. For example, the degree of cleanliness of , as well as the body's possible smoking, drinking habits, and even a history of genetic diseases, may have an impact on the death result.
Therefore, the growth rate of a beard, or the frequency of shaving, are not enough to judge lifespan. The faster a man grows, the shorter his lifespan, actually it still needs further confirmation and is not referenceable. However, a man's beard grows fast, but it may indeed indicate a certain physical condition.
The body of men with fast-growing beards may have these three common characteristics
androgen secretion is vigorous
Beard growth depends on the degree of development of hair follicles, and hair follicles are mainly stimulated by androgens. If men have strong androgens, the higher the stimulation of the hair follicles, the faster the beard grows.
And the strong androgens are also of many benefits to the body, such as making your muscles stronger and stronger, making your immunity more stable, and exuding male charm. Of course, vigorous does not mean excessive. Excessive androgen secretion can easily cause a series of hidden dangers such as prostate hypertrophy. Maintaining stability is the best choice.
Sleep quality will be more stable
Fast growth means strong androgen secretion, and vigorous androgens are the guarantee of endocrine balance, stable endocrine, smooth body self-healing function, and the quality of sleep at night can also be in a stable state, and there will be fewer insomnia than men of the same age.
Hands and feet are warm, it is difficult to catch a cold
Hand grow fast, and it is also one of the signs of sufficient yang energy for men. If the body is sufficient yang energy, the body temperature control will be more stable. Even now it is late autumn, and my hands and feet are still warm and there are few signs of coldness. In addition, the stable immunity brought by strong androgens, such as fever, cold and other cold symptoms, will also be reduced.
It can be seen that the beard grows fast , indicating that the body has sufficient yang energy and strong androgens. is actually a manifestation that is beneficial to health. Of course, it is worthy of happiness for male friends. However, although the growth rate of beard is not closely related to health, other abnormal situations may have hidden dangers of disease and need to be paid attention to.
A young man turned white, did you have any disease?
This is a problem encountered by many young people or middle-aged people. Although they are not old, they have white beards sporadically.
On the one hand, this is related to some congenital factors, such as the inheritance of , the congenital albinism , etc. There is no need to worry too much about the former, while the latter will often appear with obvious symptoms such as whitening of the skin. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.
On the other hand, is related to acquired life defects:
has malnutrition .Malnutrition causes the body to consume too little protein , and the barren protein cannot synthesize enough pigment cells, which leads to a whitening beard.
has mental abnormality factors. For example, you have too much pressure in your daily life, too depressed and sad emotions in the short term, etc.
In short, a young beard may be affected by congenital diseases, but most of them are related to acquired nutrition intake and improper emotional control. Actively regulate the symptomatic conditioning, and the whiteness of the beard can often be improved quickly.
In addition, when men encounter other abnormal beards, they should also be vigilant:
For example, The beard breakage may be mostly related to the symptoms of "deficiency of kidney qi "; red and swollen beard roots , which may be related to the problems of folliculitis and other related diseases. No matter which, when encountering abnormal situations, male friends should seek medical treatment in time to avoid procrastination and unnecessary hidden dangers.
In short, beard is a symbol of men and is also a "mirror" of health. What kind of situations need to be paid attention to and the discovery of potential diseases are also an important means for male friends to protect their health. The same is true in other aspects of life. Only by observing the details can you better maintain a positive physical state.
