It's no bald faced lie...the same people who regularly rate San Antonio among the fattest cities in the country now say we're among the baldest as well.
Men's Health magazine rates San Antonio the fourth baldest city in America, in a survey of factors that contribute to the 'overall quality' of men who live in the 101 biggest cities in the country.
You can run but you can't hide, Corpus Christi is rated as the baldest city in America. Other follically challenged metropolises include Washington DC at nubmer two, Baltimore at number three, and Atlanta at number five.
Men's Health says it based its chrome dome chronology on Centers of Disease Control surveys on doctors visits in searchof Rogaine and other hair restoration products, as well as the number of hair implant operations per capita.
San Antonio dermatologist Dr. Vivian Bucay says there is a link between baldness and that other condition which is so troubling in San Antonio, diabetes.
She told Men's Health that the same bodily changes that happen with insulin resistance in diabetes patients will also produce an enzyme which causes male pattern baldness.
