Protect Your Brain
I’ve written to you about this once before. But recently a large study gave a strong warning about a common little indispensable gadget.
Everyone knows smoking cigarettes is really unhealthy. Now scientists are saying using cell phones next to your ear is Just as dangerous.
I know it sounds ludicrous. How can an addictive substance like nicotine and blackening your lungs be compared to holding a harmless mobile phone next to your ear. Well, as it turns out, there is a case for doing just that.
Scientists examined more than 1,500 people with gliomas, little tumors next to your ear, and an additional 3,300 people who did not suffer from the cancers.
At first they found no link between cell phones and tumors. Then they specifically reviewed the medical histories of patients who had been using mobiles for at least a decade. They’re conclusion – 39 percent of long-term cell-phone users are likely to develop glioma cancer on the side of the head where they hold their handsets.
Due to the results in this study a massive follow-up study looking at 200,000 long-term phone users over the next five years is being undertaken by British expert Professor Lawrie Challis.
However, there’s no reason to panic. The easy solution is to always use a headset or your speakerphone. And to not make your cell phone your primary phone.
I’ve said before that cell phones have always given me an ear ache within a few seconds of use. So I only use mine when I go out. It stays in my purse, headset attached. Notice, I’m not carrying it on my body. This is not recommended for obvious reasons.
It may sound like a lot to change your phone habits, but when you think about the dangers vs. the benefits of using a headset or your speakerphone when you talk on your cell phone – you’ll agree, this may be the only way to go.
What’s more important than protecting your brain, your health and your life.

P.S. Always protect your ears. From noise, negative sounds and music, cold weather, harsh words, and now cell-phones. This news was not sent to scare you, but to protect you from something you may not be aware of. It’s a lot harder to quit smoking than it is to change your cell-phone habits. So remain calm and relaxed by listening to these brain-enhancing sounds - changing any habit under calm conditions is Much easier.
