The results from this study indicate that use of mobile phones is not associated with an increased risk of gliomas, meningiomas or acoustic neuromas.

PMID: Eur J Cancer Prev. 2007 Apr ;16(2):158-64. PMID: 17297392 Abstract Title: Use of mobile phones in Norway and risk of intracranial tumours. Abstract: To test the hypothesis that exposure to radio-frequency electromagnetic fields from mobile phones increases the incidence of gliomas, meningiomas and acoustic neuromas in adults. The incident cases were of patients aged …

Many lifestyle variables were confirmed to influence semen quality, including the recent suggestion that storage of mobile phones close to the testes can decrease semen quality.

PMID: Biol Lett. 2005 Sep 22 ;1(3):253-5. PMID: 17148180 Abstract Title: Image content influences men's semen quality. Abstract: There is increasing evidence from non-human animals that males adjust their ejaculate expenditure according to the risk of sperm competition. In this study we show that, after controlling for lifestyle factors known to influence semen quality, human …

The results indicate that using a cell phone for 10 years or more approximately doubles the risk of being diagnosed with a brain tumor on the same side of the head as that preferred for cell phone use.

PMID: Surg Neurol. 2009 Sep ;72(3):205-14; discussion 214-5. Epub 2009 Mar 27. PMID: 19328536 Abstract Title: Cell phones and brain tumors: a review including the long-term epidemiologic data. Abstract: BACKGROUND: The debate regarding the health effects of low-intensity electromagnetic radiation from sources such as power lines, base stations, and cell phones has recently been reignited. …

Antidepressant effects of rosemary extracts associate with anti-inflammatory effect and rebalance of gut microbiota.

PMID: Front Pharmacol. 2018 ;9:1126. Epub 2018 Oct 2. PMID: 30364169 Abstract Title: Antidepressant Effects of Rosemary Extracts Associate With Anti-inflammatory Effect and Rebalance of Gut Microbiota. Abstract: It is currently believed that inflammation acts as a central part in the pathophysiology of depression. Rosemary extracts (RE), the crucial active constituents extracted fromLinn, have drawn …

This small study indicates that short term use of cell phones with an average of 26.31 minutes of call time per day doesn’t impact hearing threshold.

PMID: J Med Assoc Thai. 2005 Sep ;88 Suppl 4:S231-4. PMID: 16623034 Abstract Title: The effect of mobile phone to audiologic system. Abstract: Mobile phones have come into widespread use. There are a lot of possible adverse effect to health. Use of mobile phone generate potentially harmful radiofrequency electromagnetic field (EMF) particularly for the hearing …

Rosemary extract has the potential to counteract the palmitate-induced muscle cell insulin resistance.

PMID: Nutrients. 2018 Nov 2 ;10(11). Epub 2018 Nov 2. PMID: 30400151 Abstract Title: Attenuation of Free Fatty Acid-Induced Muscle Insulin Resistance by Rosemary Extract. Abstract: Elevated blood free fatty acids (FFAs), as seen in obesity, impair muscle insulin action leading to insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Serine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor …
