You handshake speaks volumes about your health. Here's what it's saying...



A firm handshake indicates you’re confident and friendly – and probably in pretty good health...  

A new study found some links between handshakes and potential health risks. Researchers followed 2,500 people for a decade and determined that those with a firm handshake were at a significantly lower risk of stroke and dementia than those with the flimsy or limp grip.

Author of the study, Dr. Erica Camargo, says vascular problems in the brain manifest themselves in a variety of ways. A weak grip could be a sign that your overall cardiovascular health isn’t in the best shape.
