Great news to the baldies out there. The baldness-heart attack risk factor myth has been debunked.
The conclusion of this study reported in Scientific America, states
The results of this study suggest that male pattern baldness is not a surrogate measure of an important risk factor” for heart attacks or for atherosclerosis without symptoms
So now that we know that just because we are bald, does not mean that a heart attack is in our future – what other things can we worry about?
Unfortunately, too many health professionals are misinformed. I’m glad you are putting the word out about the study.
