Did you know that staring at a woman's breast can be beneficial to men's health?

Stare at women's breasts for 10 minutes a day and increase your life span by five years, that's the conclusion of a 2014 study.

According to a German research published in the New England Journal of Medicine, men who stare at women's breasts for 10 minutes a day live five years longer.


The study claims that that 10 minutes is equivalent to a 30-minute gym workout.

The men who stare at women's breasts have lower blood pressure, suffer less cardiovascular disease and have slower heart beat, the Star Online reports.

Gerontologist Dr Karen Weatherby created this provocative study with the help of 200 male outpatients. According to the study, half of the sample set were asked to look at female breasts, while the other half were instructed to refrain from doing so.

Five years later, the study published the following results: "Just 10 minutes of staring at the charms of a well-endowed female is roughly equivalent to a 30-minute aerobics work-out." According to Weatherby's findings, men that stared at breasts daily had lower blood pressure, slower resting pulse rates, as well as fewer instances of coronary artery disease.

"Sexual excitement gets the heart pumping and improves blood circulation," explains Dr. Weatherby.

"There's no question: Gazing at breasts makes men healthier." "Our study indicates that engaging in this activity a few minutes daily cuts the risk of stroke and heart attack in half. We believe that by doing so consistently, the average man can extend his life four to five years."

That said, a story from Men's Health did try to bridge staring at breasts and health together with a somewhat scientific explanation.

Men's Health explained that looking at breasts and looking at kittens benefit your health by creating a positive mindset. Pleasant emotions can make individuals, both men and women, make better decisions about their health. In a study of 756 participants, all subjects wrote down personal health goals. One half of the subjects were frequently encouraged to think positive thoughts and make multiple self-affirmations throughout the day.

After one year, researchers noted that one half of the patients with coronary artery disease have increased their physical activity versus 37 percent from the control group. 42 percents of those with high blood pressure stuck to their medication plan compared to 36 percent in the control group.

The second study does not prove that men that stare at breasts have better heart health, but it does show positive attitude plays an important role in maintaining a healthy lifestyle
