German investigators report that exposure to electromagnetic fields during mobile phone use may increase resting blood pressure. Exposure of the right hemisphere to a radio-frequency electromagnetic field for 35 min causes an increase in sympathetic efferent activity with increases in resting blood pressure between 5 and 10 mm Hg, most likely due to more pronounced vasoconstriction.

COMMENT: The brain is a incredibly sensitive organ. It is highly susceptible to electromagnetic fields. Cellular phones are a disaster waiting to happen. They should be reserved for emergencies only. I am highly confident that the future will more clearly reveal all the damage that these phones cause. Most people purchase "packages" on their cell phone service which gives them a set number of "free" minutes per month and they feel they are wasting it if they don't use it. I would encourage you to change your package and take the pay as you go plan. You can reduce your phone bill to well below $30 per month and save your brain from this damage. I try to limit my cell phone use to two or three minutes per month.
