Without a doubt, cellphones can save lives.

But …. Isnt the government watching out for our safety around cell phones?

This didn’t account for smaller-framed men and women, or children.

Or the fact that the average daily use of cellphones now exceeds 30 minutes.

Driving and switching from cell tower to tower is particularly associated with high energy output surges from the phone.

Did you ever read that?

Joel Kahn, M.D.

Do you and your children do that?

What do we know about cell phones and cardiac health?

Recently several pieces of information do raise some concerns worth sharing.

Indian medical students were studied during a call.

A 1-minute phone call raised the heart rate in chronic users of cell phones.

The blood cholesterol levels were also higher in regular users.

Of more concern is a published study of patients with clogged heart arteries due to atherosclerosis.

Then the EKG was repeated while the phone rang for 40 seconds at the same positions.

Turns out that the cell phone ring caused higher QT levels, which is associated with heart rhythm problems.

So how can we use cell phones safely?

(Sperm counts and function decrease when exposed to cellphone frequencies.)

It may be time for the man purse to make a comeback.

Put your phone in airplane mode whenever you’ve got the option to.

Avoid holding a cellphone by your head while driving or in shielded areas where energy surges occur.
