Could Cellphone Usage Cause Brain Damage?
Posted on June 9th, 2008 No commentsI have never completely believed that cellphones could cause brain damage. I just considered it a bunch of hypochondriac hype. But I may stand corrected.
Here is just one of many YouTube videos that shows that cellphone waves can pop popcorn kernels. It seems ridiculous, but by just lining up more than 3 cellphones (in use) with the antennas pointing in the direction of the kernels, there is enough power to pop them.
I may start cutting down my cellphone usage now. That cannot be good for anyone. What do you think? Does this make all of the chatter about cell phones being bad for our health more probable?

That is scary. But do you think you can really cut down on cell phone usage? Our cell phones are such a huge part of our lives. Forget it at home and you feel like a piece of you is missing. Being connected to friends, family, restaurants, and the internet at all times is second nature now.
If one does it in a little by little process, it might not be so bad. Maybe they will make the patch for cell phones? Hmmmm

There are alternatives to using a cellphone in the traditional ear-to-phone manner. So far studies that have looked into the cell-microwave and brain damage link haven’t ruled out earpieces. Here is some info on the latest studies: http://www.brainandspinalcord.org/blog/2008/06/can-your-cell-phone-cause-brain-damage/
Hope it helps!
