It would seem that everywhere that you look men appear to have beards
and it seems as though they are now as popular as they used to be in the
days before Mr Gillette came upon the scene, when having a clean shaven
face was fashionable.
Now of course there is nothing wrong with having a beard, it can suit
some men, but how clean are they? New research carried out by a
microbiologist in New Mexico, John Golobic, of Quest Diagnostics has been
swabbing a few beards to see if they contained any bacteria and the
results may surprise quite a few people, including men with facial hair!
What he found was that, not unsurprisingly, some beards contained traces
of normal bacteria and it would probably be no different than a person’s
hair on their head before shampooing. However some beards that he
swabbed contained so much faecal matter, poo to you and me, that they
could be compared to a toilet. Now many would be wondering just how this
poo got into the beard! What Mr Golobic did say was that if samples were
taken in a water supply and similar levels found, the supply would be
immediately closed.
Well surely it is down to basic hygiene when using the toilet, we are all
aware that we should always wash our hands thoroughly when we have
used a toilet and there can be few places where hand washing facilities are
not available, indeed it is compulsory in restaurants!
So whether you have a beard or not hand washing after using a toilet is a
must, and we suggest that you avoid scratching your beard if you decide
not to! Lots of hand and beard scrubbing is the order of the day!

Faeces in beards? Mmmmmmm. Never heard of this before.
