Study Reveals Cell Phones Do Affect The Brain...
Dear Reader,
Cell phones have become part of our lives, but many are wondering if these must-have devices are doing more than keeping us in constant contact. An intriguing study by the NIH (National Institutes of Health) has found higher levels of sugar use in the brain, a sign of increased activity, after just 50 minutes on the phone.
The preliminary bit of research was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, and is careful to point out that the results do not suggest a risk to your health from using a cell phone.
We know two things for certain - cell phones give off radio-frequency energy, and these portable conveniences show no signs of disappearing from our lives. How can you argue with the ability to talk whenever you want, to have music, the internet, texting and more on hand wherever you go?
The down side of all that accessibility is the concern voiced by many that our beloved technology might cause all kinds of health problems, everything from brain tumors to sleep disorders, migraines, even lowered sperm count.
The current study, involving 47 healthy volunteers, looked at the effect of electromagnetic fields (RF-EMFs) that come from the antenna of the phone. At some point these are absorbed into the body, but so far there is no evidence that cell phone use poses any health threat. Everyone agrees more work needs to be done in this area.
The subjects in this study had mobile devices attached to both ears, one phone was off, the other was on, though muted, so they couldn't tell the difference between the two. As part of the experiment, their brains were scanned to look for changes in sugar use - glucose metabolism is a natural process where the cells of the brain convert this sugar in to energy.
Glucose metabolism increased by 7% in the parts of the brain that were closest to the antenna. What's more, the activity decreased when the phones were turned off.
The theory goes that it's possible for your brain to absorb the radio frequencies that a cell phone puts out, and this could make it more excitable. By suggesting that cell phones can affect the activity of the brain, the authors of this study are calling for more research to look at what's really going on here. With the widespread, and increasing use of cell phones, it's important we all are aware of what these devices might be doing to our brains.

Study Reveals Cell Phones Do Affect The Brain... Continued...
Experts like Patrick Haggard of the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience at University
College London, point out that much larger fluctuations in the metabolic rate
of the brain happen naturally... during thinking for example.
Also of note, cell phone use in the study wasn't anything like what we normally
do with these devices - talk and listen. The cell phones in the study were in
a listen only mode. When you add in the talking component of cell phone conversations,
the authors of a JAMA editorial accompanying the study believe the brain's exposure
to radio frequency might be even greater.
If future work confirms an effect on the brain, it will be necessary to see if
these effects have any implications for the health of the brain. Experts would
also look at the healthy and safety risk for other populations, such as teens,
adult men and women, different ethnic groups and the elderly.
Remember, this research does not mean that cell phones pose a health risk. You
can still use your phone safely while waiting for more work to be done.
To your good health,

P.S: Nike...Ebay...Amazon and Walmart pay for your opinion
Fortune 500 companies make their money by people like you and I buying their products.
But how do they know what we want to buy? Easy they pay to find out the products we like, where we shop and what we buy.
In a nutshell big businesses need people to tell them what products to make.
People like Michelle McAllister - a 34 year old full-time mother of two. Michelle and many others help "big business" make millions, although they haven't got any marketing or sales experience.
In fact Michelle knows absolutely nothing about business, but she does know what she likes...
And that's exactly the information these companies are after and will pay you for.
