A reader sent me the link to this story and said I should let everyone know. Here's the story:
"Stare at boobs for longer life: Study
Frankfurt, Germany, December 6, 2009 - A rather bizarre study carried out by German researchers suggests that staring at women's breasts is good for men's health and increases their life expectancy.
According to Dr. Karen Weatherby, a gerontologist and author of the study, gawking at women’s breasts is a healthy practice, almost at par with an intense exercise regime, that prolongs the lifespan of a man by five years.
She added, "Just 10 minutes of staring at the charms of a well-endowed female, is roughly equivalent to a 30-minute aerobics work-out."
Researchers at three hospitals in Frankfurt, Germany did an in-depth analysis of 200 healthy males over a period of five years. Half the volunteers were instructed to ogle at the breasts of women daily, while the rest were told to refrain from doing so.
At the close of the study, the researchers noted that the men who stared at the breasts of females on a regular basis exhibited lower blood pressure, slower resting pulse rates and lesser episodes of coronary artery ... disease.
...Weatherby explained the concept stating, "Sexual excitement gets the heart pumping and improves blood circulation. There's no question: Gazing at breasts makes men healthy.
"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."
..The German research is believed to be published in the New England Journal of Medicine.

When I first got this link, I thought, the doctors name sure sounded American or British, not German. I then went to The new England Journal of Medicine, typed in the doctors name and found nothing. I then went to snopes.com and found it was a fake story.
I still thought it was pretty funny and wanted to share it. If it was true, nudism would boom!
Now the even funnier thing is the site themedguru.com is supposedly a medical advice portal. This article is still up. Makes you really wonder what type of job editing do they do. I discovered it was a fake in less than 5 minutes. I hope they do a better job researching other articles.
Again reinforces, take everything you read with a grain of salt. It's OK to take the extra sodium, you don't have to worry about it elevating your blood pressure. Just stare at some boobs like in this blog for 10 minutes and your blood pressure will be fine.
