Scientists at Sweden’s Orebro University have found out that using cellphones increases the level of a protein called transthyretin that adds to the cushion protection of the brain. What’s really strange is that they haven’t mentioned if this effect is good or bad for the brain. These tests haven’t really been accepted worldwide to be fool-proof. It is said that children have thinner skull bones and more fluid in their brains. Hence the radiation effect on their brain would be a lot more adverse.
There are efforts made by various cellphone companies and scientists to find alternative methods that could reduce the amount of radiations in phones.
