Lots of men are sporting beards these days. How that can affect their health...


Beards are the new black – but are they good for you? 

Men sporting beards are a definite fashion trend now and it turns out those guys may be healthier for it. That beard is like hairy sunscreen for their face and if it’s thick enough, will protect them from harmful UV rays and even slow the aging process. 

Facial hair can also help reduce asthma and allergy symptoms, as long as it’s in the form of a mustache. It’s like a natural filter that catches pollen and allergens before they set in. Hair around the chin and neck can act as a physical barrier in cold weather too, helping to stave off illness.
