Research that was published by Clinical Neurophysiology has shown that both sides of the brain are affected after thirty minutes of exposure to LTE cell-phone radiation. The research was done with the help of eighteen participants who allowed the study to be done by exposing the right ear to LTE radio frequency for thirty minutes. The amount of radiation that the brain absorbed was barely within the international cell-phone legal limits. The radiation source was held one centimeter away from the ear. To eliminate any and all study biases, the team of researchers did a double blind, crossover , randomized design which exposed all eighteen participants to a real and a sham exposure.
A demonstration done on the resting state brain activity was measured by magnetic
resonance imaging two times. One was after being exposed to the LTE radio frequency radiation and another after the sham exposure. In result of the demonstration, it was shown that radio frequency radiation from the LTE 4G technology did in fact effect the brain. It effected the brain neural activity in the closer brain region and also in the remote region including the left hemisphere.
The Importance of this study was to show two things. One is because this is the first study to be carried out on the short term effects due to LTE. The second reason is becuase of how quickly people, mainly Americans, adopted this technology. I say Americans because it
has been said by the Global Mobile Suppliers Association that "LTE is the fastest developing mobile system ever," and America is the largest LTE market in the world. In fact, by March of 2013, the global total of LTE subscribers had already reached ninety-one million subscribers. Over half of them were Americans.
In conclusion, these studies established that the short-term exposure to LTE radio frequency radiation effects activity in the brain. However, the long term effects of these exposures have not been studied thus far, but there is already a considerable amount of evidence that link to an exposure to a myriad of harmful biological effects that include:
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:
Alzheimers
Autism
Brain Tumors
Breast Cancer
Brain Cancer
