Secondly, what do you advise as the limit for excessively using your phone per day?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I'm severely electrosensitive. Specifically, I've been so overexposed to electromagnetic and radiowave fields from wireless technology, that I cannot tolerate any exposure to EMR whatsoever without becoming symptomatic - sweats, rashes, severe anxiety, insomnia, memory and focus problems, palpitations. Even the sunlight makes me ill now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We are truly playing with fire when it comes to wireless technology.&lt;/p&gt;

There is a company that has a pretty interesting design with a headset that lets sound pass through air instead of wires to the head. They have cell phone pouches that dont block radiation but they say the pouch you keep the cell phone in causes the radiation to deflect away from the body. &amp;nbsp;Does anyone have more science background and could tell us whether that works or not??&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Situation in Japan – as a precursor to ours&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The worldwide proliferation of Alzheimer's is diagnosed reluctantly in Japan, due to a national stigma attached to the condition. &amp;nbsp;While Japanese TV has health-topic programs on brain aging, noting that younger people show deterioration of mental faculties similar to the elderly and that chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and depression are rampant, these are ascribed to psychological factors. &amp;nbsp;The shows point out missing nutrients or indicate mental exercises to keep &amp;quot;thinking young&amp;quot;. &amp;nbsp;The condition occurs in over 2 million Japanese, affecting all ages. &amp;nbsp;Among the young, it manifests as social withdrawal, and they shut themselves off in rooms. &amp;nbsp;At first, the media named it &amp;quot;jiheisho&amp;quot; (autism), then &amp;quot;hikikomori&amp;quot; or withdrawing and hiding. &amp;nbsp;The sudden onset coincides with a major expansion of cell phone service.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; Ryoichi Ogawa, Kobe MD, reports that 80% of his CFS patients are frequent users on a daily basis of cellular phones, personal computers, TV games, etc. &amp;nbsp;He decided on a clinical study to test a cause-effect relationship of cellular phones and computers to CFS. &amp;nbsp;Ogawa chose 40 from his young CFS patients (to compare them with 50 healthy persons) to measure their blood flow in the upper eyelid ophthalmic artery that branches off from the carotid artery carrying blood from heart to brain), with the super Doppler method – a test that verifies blockage of brain blood vessels. &amp;nbsp;Subjects held a cell phone at their left ear for 30 seconds. &amp;nbsp;Prior to use, all showed normal blood flow of 10 cm/sec. in the arteries of both eyes; after phone use, the flow dropped to less than 5 cm/sec. for all those tested – a rate indicating reduced brain blood flow. &amp;nbsp;Exposure from sitting within 1 meter of a video screen for 15 minutes also reduced brain blood flow to less than 5 cm/sec. in both eyes for all CFS patients; among the healthy, 78% had a reduction to less than 5 cm/sec. in both eyes. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;“It is very difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on not understanding it.” &amp;nbsp;Upton Sinclair &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(Like if one is making money selling cell phone “protection devices&amp;quot;? &amp;nbsp;Dr. Mercola, why not just warn your readers NOT to use them AT ALL and cease your support of an industry that’s killing us and our planet?)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“The present threshold level for microwave radiation is more than 10,000 times higher than the level where serious cell changes and damage on the DNA takes place.” &amp;nbsp;Dr. Miguel Muntané &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“There's so much money involved, that the only thing industry sees is the money.” … “They couldn't give a damn about basic science.” &amp;nbsp;Dr. Jerry Phillips – U.S. Cell phone researcher&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Even if we survive the chemical and atomic threats to our existence, there is the strong possibility that increasing electropollution could set in motion irreversible changes leading to our extinction before we are even aware of them. &amp;nbsp;All life pulsates in time to the earth and our artificial fields cause abnormal reactions in all organisms… These energies are too dangerous to entrust forever to politicians, military leaders and their lapdog researchers.&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;Dr. Robert O. Becker&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“No shield or headset will protect you from your cell or portable phone. &amp;nbsp;There is no safe distance from a cell tower. &amp;nbsp;If your cell phone or your wireless computer works where you live, you are being irradiated 24 hours a day… There is simply no way to make wireless technology safe.” &amp;nbsp;Arthur Firstenberg, 2006&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Microwave transmitters are not toys; they are weapons. &amp;nbsp;[Big] Brother's wireless revolution has induced millions of fools to voluntarily point these weapons at their own heads. &amp;nbsp;The wireless revolution is not only about money, it is about control. &amp;nbsp;It is about acclimatizing the masses to accept the dehumanizing parameters of Orwellian surveillance.&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;Amy Worthington (Idaho Observer)&lt;/p&gt;
