Cell Phone Use Tied To Changes In Brain Activity

Takichi writes "The New York Times is reporting on research linking cell phone use and increased metabolism, with high statistical significance, in the areas of the brain close to the antenna. The study was led by Dr. Nora D. Volkow, director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse, and is published (abstract) in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The impact, good or bad, of the increased stimulation is speculative, but this research shows there is a direct relationship between cell phone signals and the brain that warrants further study."

>>>It doesn't look like they even used a control group of people doing nothing

Yes they did.

>>>people just talking

Yes they did.

>>>people talking with the phone on the other side of their head

Yes they did.
It helps if you actually READ the article, since the researchers tested the phone on both sides of the head, with the phone turned off, and with the phone turned on, and observed the brain only reactived with the phone turned on (and on whichever side it was located).

>>>Why are researchers so clueless?

They are not.
You however are.
Sorry but you posted the post, and I'm just responding in kind.
