Cellphone Radiation May Protect Brain From Alzheimers

We've discussed cellphones and cancer many times. Here's a new angle: reader olddotter sends in a Reuters article suggesting that cellphone radiation may protect the brain from Alzheimer's disease. "At the end of that time, they found cellphone exposure erased a build-up of beta amyloid, a protein that serves as a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease. The Alzheimer's mice showed improvement and had reversal of their brain pathology..."

Mice

Maybe the mice that were talking on cell phones had a richer mental life, staving off the disease for reasons other than the radiation.

Nah. There was less amyloid because the mice unfortunately crashed their cars while talking on the cell phone and just died young.

Nothing to see here... move along.

Of course it must be true

The mice have been running the experiment to check the safety of cellphones for mice use by making the human beings to use them for a long time. It is quite well known and well documented actually.

On a long enough timeline, the rate of survival always drops to zero. Stop worrying so much.

Studies show that mouse heads are much smaller than human heads
