Study Finds No Health Damage
from Cellphone Use
|
|
A
major British study has found there are no damaging
health effects from using mobile phones, in the
short-term at least. |
The
UK mobile telecommunications and health research program
conducted a six-year review into the safety of mobile
phones.
It
was set up after a report in 2001 raised concerns about
the health effects of mobile phone use.
After
23 separate studies, the independent body found there
was no increase in cancers of the brain and nervous
system in people using mobiles for less than 10 years.
Researchers
found mobile use also had no impact on brain function.
They have called for a longer study to assess the impact
on people using mobiles phones for more than 10 years.

Brown
seaweed contains promising fat fighter, weight reducer. |
Chemists

used in many Asian soups and salads, contains a compound
that appears in animal studies to promote weight loss
by reducing the accumulation of fat.
Called fucoxanthin, the compound achieved a 5 percent
to 10 percent weight reduction in test animals and could
be developed into a natural extract or drug to help fight
obesity, the researchers say.
