Hands-Free Cell Phone Device

Remember to get a hands-free device for your cell phone today if you don't have one & use it since hands-free cell phone law goes into effect tomorrow. Another reason you want to use this device is that it will "place more distance between the phone antenna and you. The antenna emits radio waves and having the phone next to your ear exposes your brain to this radiation".

"Researchers in Denmark recently found that children who used cellphones, and whose mothers used cellphones during pregnancy were 80% more likely to have behavioral problems such as emotional symptoms, inattention, hyperactivity and problems with peers compared with children who had no cellphone exposure as fetuses or in early childhood. Children whose mothers used cellphones during pregnancy but who had no other cellphone exposure were 54% more likely to have behavioral problems". For more info, go to:
