Cell Phone Use Impacts Brain Function: May Prevent and Reverse Alzheimer’s

The use of cell phones have been shown to positively impact brain function and may hold the key to Alzheimer’s disease prevention.  Research conducted at the University of South Florida has hown that long term cell phone use may hold the key to preventing Alzheimer’s disease.  In some cases the effects of cell phone use may even reverse Alzheimer’s disease.

The electromagnetic waves generated by cell phones impact on beta amyloid, a build up of protein associated with the onset of Alzheimer’s disease, seem to be reduced from cell phone usage.

The study was conducted on mice engineered to contract Alzheimer’s disease.  An antenna was placed in their cage and delivered the some dose of electromagnetic radiation adults are exposed to when using cell phones.  Exposure was for two, one-hour periods for 7-9 months.

Mice that showed signs of Alzheimer’s disease showed a reversal of Alzheimer’s symptoms.  Memory in these mice improved throughout the course of the study showning their Alzheimer’s was indeed reversing.  Mice that had previously shown no Alzheimer’s symptoms were completely protected from the brain disease.

What was even more astonishing in this Alzheimer’s research was the normal mice showed improvement in their cognitive function.

This amazing Alzheimer’s research has implications for others who may suffer from brain injuries.  Beta amyloid also builds up in those people suffering from brain injury and this research may not only benefit Alzheimer’s patients but also these patients.

With Alzheimer’s disease affecting 1 in 10 adults over the age of 55, this potential treatment for Alzheimer’s with a potential for reversing the disease could have major implications in future treatments.  If reversing Alzheimer’s disease is possible, this will dramatically improve the quality of life for Alzheimer’s patients and their caregivers.?
