Never mind tumors, can we please just get a decent night's rest? New research from the Electromagnetic Academy at MIT (and commissioned by the Mobile Manufacturers Forum, no less) found that individuals in their study who were blasted with RF typical of cellphones immediately prior to sleeping had their sleeping patterns adversely affected. Furthermore, when the relentless onslaught of electromagnetic radiation continued after the subjects were asleep, researchers found that were more likely to suffer headaches. A deadly side effect? Not really, though it might make us cranky enough to inflict some harm on passers by.[Via textually.org]
Take with appropriate grain of salt.
The report is sponsored by a company that makes 'neutralizing' products for cell-phone radiation.
So I shouldn't be sleeping with my phone six inches from my head? Yeah, I kind of figured that already. Maybe tonight I'll put it on the shelf next to the bed instead.
Grained with salt.
PSM, the radiation emitted from your cell phone is actually high than you'd think. The results of this type of radiation on a persons brain is limited, since the technology is as well.
However. Your health and ability to perform is up to you. Your brain is basically a wet, sticky full of cholesterol mass of cells which send messages using electricity.
When this type, or more broadly any type of radiation or electro magnetic interference is prolonged and powerful it is enough to penetrate your outer tissue and cerebellum. Your individual cell aren't able to communicate to their full potential in various ways. Not only can these cells not communicate, but independently they become less active.
Caught up with taking the static out of our technology, forgotten is how its now in us.
