2. Does Faster Beard Growth Mean a Shorter Lifespan?
So, does the speed of beard growth have any relation to lifespan?
This idea initially came from a study in the UK. Researchers found a link between men who shave daily and their risk of cardiovascular disease, with those shaving daily having a lower risk.
Furthermore, a 20-year study by the University of Bristol in the UK found a correlation between how often men shave and the risk of coronary artery disease and stroke. Among 2,438 middle-aged men in the study, 31% of those who shaved at least once a day died, compared to 45% of those who didn't shave daily.
