Answers
Answer:
yes the overuse of cell phone es causing trauma in our brains
Answer:
yes
Explanation:
Dr. Nora Volkow, the lead author of the JAMA study, said modeling studies have shown that a child's brain would absorb more radiation than those of adults. But Volkow said she's unaware of studies that have looked at the different developmental effects.
Some studies have suggested that the radiation can cross or affect the entire brain of children, who are still developing, versus a particular area in adults," said Dr. Stephanie Wagner, co-medical director of the neuro-oncology program at Indiana University Health and the IU Simon Cancer Center in Indianapolis.
But studies looking at the effects of electromagnetic radiation in children and the risk of epilepsy and behavioral problems such as attention deficit disorder and aggressive behavior showed conflicting results, Wagner said.
Still, why take a chance, Volkow said.
