The peer-reviewed journal Clinical Neurophysiology has published research showing that 30 minutes of exposure to LTE cellphone radiation affects brain activity on both sides of the brain.
The results demonstrate that radio frequency radiation from LTE 4G technology affects brain neural activity in both the closer brain region and in the remote region, including the left hemisphere of the brain.
This study is important for two reasons. Firstly because it is the first one to be carried out on the short-term effects of Long Term Evolution (LTE), fourth generation (4G) cell phone technology. Secondly, because of the rapid rate of adoption of this technology.
According to the Global mobile Suppliers Association “LTE is the fastest developing mobile system technology ever”. The United States is the largest LTE market in the world. By March 2013 the global total of LTE subscriptions was already 91 million subscribers. Over half of these, 47 million, were American 4G subscribers.
This study establishes that short-term exposure to LTE radio frequency radiation affects brain activity. The long-term effects of these exposures have yet to be studied but there is already considerable evidence linking these exposures to a myriad of adverse biological effects including:
Sperm damage
DNA breaks
Increased glucose in the brain
Weakened bones
Genetic stress
Immune system dysfunction
Effects on unborn children
More worrying is the link between these exposures and a long list of diseases such as:
Alzheimer’s disease
Autism
Brain Tumors
Breast cancer
Brain cancer
More research is needed on the effects of LTE and other forms of cell phone radiation but the evidence is already compelling. Many scientific and medical experts are sounding the alarm.
