Why do people bite their nails and is it completely harmless?

Nail biting is often seen as a dirty habit. Does the nail biter actually receive anything as a result of the biting i.e. does it act as calming or soothing act, and do people do it purely out of habit, or when one is stressed, deep in thought, frightened or anxious? Does a nail biter really put themselves at risk of picking up germs & illnesses more than a non nail biter?
