![I Tried Andrew Huberman's Morning Routine - [30 Days + Blood Tests]](/img/n.gif)
Just to put this into perspective, the amount of energy that your Bluetooth headphones emit is around 0.1W about 0.012W actually passes through your head. And about 0.00005W gets absorbed. Compare this to sunlight which contains about 1,000 W/m^2 on a bright day. Standing in this causes about 30W to be absorbed. Not only do UV quanta contain about 300,000 times more energy than Bluetooth, but on an average day, you absorb close to 2 million times more energy from ambient light than you do radio waves.
Absolutely, all those hippy wackos who complain about electric smog or whatever then preach about going into the sun because of 'nature'. Very hilarious
Stay out of sunlight, got it!
Next kn im a scientist , lets calculate the radiation lvls of cianayd, turns out its safe 😂
but sunlight is good for the body, EMFs are not
Where did you find this information?
I have Bluetooth one but I just LOVE my wired headphones. I don't need to worry charging it.
These newer phones having no input slot is actually such a modern day scam, it doesn’t actually take up very much space, and apples ‘solution’ of making you buy the extra cable that attaches to your charging slot means you can’t charge at same time as well wearing down the slot (also probably design, so you buy a new phone).
Then they can charge top prices for Bluetooth headphones and airpods (easily lost), not to mention the numerous problems with Bluetooth running out of charge, connecting and pairing when you just want to play music
The same with Apple using a combination of TypeC, Apple charger, different MacBook chargers having 90$ adapters in 3 different wattages..
I have some Huawei wired buds, they have a great sound, with good bass. I have some expensive wireless buds they don't have any bass response at all
I like knowing that I can walk away from my phone without having to bring it with me a charging headphones is really not that difficult
@@blackcountrymeI feel like wired sounds better than wireless imo. Which huawei buds specifically do you have?
I think that the idea is that phones will eventually be completely watertight, @@Condoctuc.
me racking lines up on the weekend "i'm worried about bluetooth"
😂
we are surrounded by very loud and annoying hyperchondriacs whose paranoia knows no bounds.
Actually, we're surrounded by ignorant people who don't actually know what's going on, but they presume to criticize other people who **do** know what's going on.
Look in a mirror. You're one of those people. Fix it, or go through life as arrogant as you are ignorant. It's your choice. Choose wisely, if you can.
Gotta love the "we dont know, therefor we know" crowd.
How ignorant is that?
Btw, increases of ROS inside of cells when exposed to EMFs is getting more documented and understood constantly by now. Ur simply wrong
alot of people fail to understand what emf actually is and what it actually does, what frequencies are ionizing and non-ionizing, and what the energy amounts at play actually are.
its the same about the healing crystal people and not knowing what crystals are and the fact that piezoelectric crystals dont just have magical properties and are really just crystals with a very specific property that makes them useful in electronics
@@RichardHarloslook it’s a paranoid! Next you’re gonna want us to become mole people to protect from the suns radiation.
@@Azide_zx Agree, so much biases and false beliefs worldwide at a time where knowledge is so advanced is flabbergasting!
When I sync my phone to a Bluetooth there are always devices in range I don’t recognize. So yeah, there’s a lot of signals floating around.
Whenever I sync my Bluetooth headphones I shit my pants a bit
That's not the point, EMF is not an ionizing radiation which means it can't hurt your body
@@ss-gf4xf it's none ionizing, emf can only heat up organic cells it, yes heat can harm you but you need to understand inorder to absorb that emf energy it has to be at a specific wavelength ...
Each matter reacts to each wavelength differently... that's why microwave heats up water particals in food or anything that's has water...
And any electronic appliances that transmit data uses specific requencies that are transparent to your body ...
@@alberta3157 Arguing that EMF at the frequencies/power used in phones is harmless when at any moment you could search and see you are wrong is crazy to me. What level of ignorance is this?
@@alberta3157I’m super sensitive to WiFi radiation. It’s not healthy for our bodies
Well, there's research called EMI (electromagnetic interference) that tries to understand how we can be shielded of radio waves or radiowave which means typical low utility frequency.
Of great concern is that those frequencies can interfere with other electronics to malfunction, hence it's not a far stretch that it may interfere with our bodies as well.
Anyhow, those waves are increasingly abundant in our environment on top of the natural electromagnetic fields.
This is why research has doubled over the last decade how to shield it.
Turns out, metals, carbons, ceramics, cement based materials and what is called "multifunctional material" (a mix of metal and cement for example). Metals and carbons are dominant for now but carbon fiber and cement based ones are on the rise.
However, low frequency magnetic fields induce circulation within the body. The strength of these currents, if sufficiently large, can cause stimulation of nerves or affect other biological processes. There's definitely a biological effect on your body. These changes are not necessarily harmful. But it can put extra stress on the body without you realizing it.
*It's NOT disputed in science that low frequency of electromagnetic fields do trigger biological effects in your body*
Reported symptoms are not life threatening, but it may cause in some individuals headaches, fatigue, nausea or
loss of libido in males 😂 (this alone is why there's research on it - just joking )
I can always tell when my Bluetooth is on
I tend to agree... we are already "swimming" in a ridiculus amount of signals.
But I disagree that we have to go under the ocean to avoid it !!!
I remember an apartment that had been accidentally "shielded"... meaning that you could BARELY get cell-phone signal right at the window, but had to actually go out on the balcony to have a proper conversation.
And how do you accidentally "shield" an apartment you might ask?
I assume they renovated it using foil-covered insultion, and then installed modern energy-windows which has a thin (invisible) metal-film on it, which not only keeps the heat inside, but also blocks a lot of the signals. So with almost all walls and windows covered in metal-film, it becomes a bit like a faraday cage.
Most people would hate that, but I guess for the few people who cares about this stuff, this might be the way to go... Would have been interesting to test the signal at that old apartment with some proper testing equipment though, to verify how well the "shielding" actually worked.
P.S. The apartment was in the inner city, so that area would have had plenty of cell-phone towers.
Yes. That’s great. However you must not have any cellphones or other radiation emitting device in that place out of airplane mode or they will bounce off the walls and back at you and phone for example boost it’s signal to max when having bad reception
@@TheKingTywinLannister True... Though I wonder how much strength they can actually gather inside the "shielded area" with a cell-phone, compared to the massive "signal-soup" we are walking in.
But it would anyway be kind of silly, if someone shielded their home, and then added signal-creating devices INSIDE the "shield".
BUT, usually these "shielded" homes are accidents, and sometimes even causes massive problems for the landlords, because they have a hard time renting them out. Because most people don't want to live in a home, where they can't get proper signal.
@ultradeadd it is not unanimously confirmed or proven by scientific research that it is completely safe so it is wise to be more safe than sorry if you are serious about your health
@ultradeadd I personally wouldn't... The effort it takes to live a life "shielded" from that radiation takes serious commitment. Some people claims that it has harmful effects, and you know what? It might be true. (Keep in mind, that there is almost ZERO financial interest in proving the dangers, but MASSIVE financial interest in proving it is safe. And research costs MONEY, and is usually financed by companies, so you can expect it to be HEAVILY biased.)
However, life is full of risks, and I personally believe that other risks, like the risks of traffic and similar, is A LOT bigger... So I choose to not worry about the risks from signal-radiation, because I believe I am far more likely to die from one of the many other dangers in this world.
But that assesment of risk is a personal choice, and just because I don't agree with their risk-assesment of signal-radiation, doesn't mean I don't understand the potential issue.
We're getting exposed to cosmic radiation all the time
Wired always everything that can be wired i ll use
I guess most people in the comment section never heard of "background radiation". There's a lot more out there to worry about than this.
And cosmic rays.
@@bg4779 oh, the cosmic rays are the worst.
Ever heard of the SUN????

True. This, for example:
_"Determining wireless radiation’s health effects with certainty is difficult. Researchers cannot ethically subject people to endless hours of cellphone radiation to gauge the results. Scientists have to rely on alternatives such as animal studies or epidemiological research, where challenges include getting subjects to accurately recount their wireless use and pinpointing the specific causes of disease or harm. Many health effects of toxic exposure, especially cancer, take years or decades to appear.

Whatever the science, Bluetooth head sets just give me insane headaches the second they starts receiving signals.
Well explained.
of course he would say this, he wants people on his table
Key words, "I think." I would love to see this full interview. Esp to hear Andrew's side. The edits make his answer seem clear and concise, although I'd be curious tonread his behavior and mannerisms in his answer without editing.
since when is Tate a medical and physics expert?
@@philippg.he means Andrew hubberman.... the neuroscientist in the clip... not Andrew tate

@@lnaph thank God
@@philippg. 😅😂 agreed lol
Andrew Huberman you are so awesome and so clear with all informations sharing to us here! You are blessed.🎉
From what I can gather, EMFs appear to disrupt mitochondrial function, specifically affecting the passage of electrons through the electron transport chain. This effect essentially lowers the mitochondria's efficiency and ability to generate ATP, the energy currency of the body. This lowered ability to generate ATP has cascading effects since essentially every process in the body requires ATP.Not to mention EMFs have been shown to disrupt Voltage Gated Calcium Channels on cells. Calcium is one of the most abundant minerals in the body and is used as a cell signaling agent. EMFs affect VGCC and cause a flood of calcium into the cell. This also has cascading effects and results in the production of reactive oxygen species specifically super oxide dismutase.
I was just reading a study on this. Very low power levels are required to disrupt the calcium channels, and it only happens with man-made EMR - because it's polarized. Natural EMR is not. Man made EMR is also subject to constructive interference, so at certain points its amplitude is increased dramatically.
Thank you both for sharing.
The people who worry about Bluetooth are the same ones that tell you not to use sunscreen
have you ever read the ingredients of a sunscreen?
@@meelo89sun and screen
Tallow sunscreen is the best. You’d smell like cow tho
Radiation intensity decreases as an inverse square of distance from transmitter. So we may be awash in these signals but their max energy is felt close to the emitter
Agree ... seems to ignored distance and concentration, plus is there research to back up his claim?
By the way, I saw the following in an article, but unfortunately I don't know where/how to find whitepapers to confirm it.
> _More than a dozen studies have shown that low-intensity microwave radiation similar to that emitted by Bluetooth can open up the blood-brain barrier, a layer of cells that block pathogens and toxins in the body from reaching the brain._
Yeah but it cannot cause immediate damage to cells and genetic material compared to ionizing radiation where very little exposure to it can cause immediate irreversible damage, you won't feel it or see it but it may appear as cancer later on or some sort of mutation
Studying in rad tech. These comments are hilariously worrisome of how people think.
Inverse square law, baby!
@@lakai69dg sir, elaborate
This short video needs more cuts. It’s not distracting at all.
THE MUSIC WHYY LMAO
Finally someone not saying that we can't do something
If you're afraid of Bluetooth you should be proportionally more scared of visible light
5G is scary? Visible light is 5000G.
Quite frankly they are.
People will say the frequency of light is way more, but there's still 4g, 5g, wifi to be scared of 😂
living next to high voltage electric lines is so much worst
Even if I choose not to use BT headphones, other people around me still do so theres really no avoiding it in public, which is the only place i use headphones anyway
I’ll start digging in Huntington Beach then, will return to update comment once I’ve reached “below a bunch of water”.
My high school chemistry teacher used to debunk many science myths for our class, one of them was the claim that phones or any kind of regular electronic device radiation causes cancer. He showed us the equations for the energy of the individual photons of such fields and then compared them to the energy needed to strip electrons from atoms or even cause changes in the nucleus of the atoms, the energy levels were way off. The kind of energy you need to break these bonds is much higher and we see such in ultraviolet radiation, x-rays and gamma rays. The visible spectrum has much higher energy photons than the ones our electronic devices make, yet we are constantly exposed to such radiation and suffer no damage from it. The problem is people hear the word radiation and get worried because it's a scary word they don't really understand. There is a good chance I even explained or remembered something incorrectly, but I still stand by my belief because at one point I knew the exact explanation rooted in scientific fact.
you cant "debunk" it
cell phones cause demonstrable changes in neurochemistry
they cripple production of seratonin
that impacts sleep
not sleeping impacts your immune system, causes stress, and other negative long term health effects
this is all measurable, clear science
your teacher is just talking out his ass
Especially compared with phones
I just line my baseball hats in tinfoil
Sometimes Hubberman seems afraid to call bs because his platform has become so big.
I feel scared of every single time using Wireless headphones and etc
Love how people worry about bluetooth radiation when smoking gives you so much radiation
People also worry about not smoking
The point is to reduce as much as you can.... these have not been tested long enough
I use Q-Link and Aires Tech devices to protect me from it. You have to see the Aires Tech video showing the radiation difference when using a phone with device.
I am a highly sensitive meditator and I agree that bluetooth isn't causing any negative effects. On the other hand, having your mobile phone close to you is 🙏🏻
I have never used blue tooth headphones. I never will. Among other things I'm a radio engineer.
What about exposure overtime? ie wearing it 6 hours a day week by week basis?
The movie Idiocracy was a prophecy
Why
I started to get right ear and and right side headaches. I listen to podcast mainly. And quietly. And earphone fits easily and lightly in my ear.
I wonder if it’s Bluetooth..
would be nice to hear Andrews pov
It is certainly not related to Bluetooth or anything. Your ear isn't intended to be plugged for extended periods of time. Earwax builds up, moisture accumulates and offers great conditions for microbes to grow. Please check in with your doctor, if the pain doesn't go away, and please do not try cleaning or manipulating anything inside your ears. Oil and water are a guarantee for a nasty infection.
Bluetooth headphones ARE dangerous. Just, it's not the "Bluetooth" part, it's the "headphone" part! Regular headphone usage is associated with early hearing damage and loss, because people tend to play them much louder than is safe!
Water has Tritium in it so you would also get ionizing radiation in deep water as well as from other trace elements
My daughter's hearing aids have bluetooth capabilities
What about the magnetics on them?
What was huberman's reply
Wired earphones are easier to find
My guy, whether you wear them or not, you're bombarded in emf fields all the time.
Yeah that's what he said ...
Just ground yourself.
People need to hear this
That’s a great description for a transmitter, tiny. Guys you’d be surprised how little energy you need to power something as small as an AirPod. It’s not the voltage that’ll kill you it’s the current. 1amp of current no matter the voltage will fry you to death. These devices used 5 miliamps to function, 0.005amps
But buds cause water behind ear drum, vertigo.. Heat can't leave ear when plugged by buds. 😮😢
Interesting. Is there a source for this?
@@StarHarvestOfficial my personal experiences supported by repeated vertigo diagnosed MD. Use our brains more, & listen to our bodies when they speak. Heat needs to leave body. Blocking exits not best choices. Bonus, rotate ear bud use to one ear at time to save from hearing loss & more. Can't site studies, trials, etc. Working 4 me.❤️🩹🦴🤘
Time to move back to Atlantis 😂
20 years ago it wasnt like this.. there's been a inane shift in energy since the world has technologicaly advanced
What do you mean by shift in energy?
The energies used by electronics contain a tiny fraction of the energy in visible light. It's literally impossible to hurt you. Only energy levels of a certain threshold (ionizing radiation) is strong enough to dislodge electrons off of atoms in your body. No modern electronics emit anywhere close to that kind of energy
He is talking out of his ass. The literal ground around you emits more radiation than any of your tech. There has been no shift.
Unless you live under large amounts of water. ;)
Chuck would disagree
I'm watching this with one blue tooth ear bud after looking everywhere for the one I lost and swearing I'm buying earphones with a cord.
Good to know
I worry more about working in a large office building !
Im really curious what michael levin has to say on that topic
Well what if I live in a leaded bunker at the bottom of Lake Superior 😮
To the best of my knowledge, you can shield against signals with much less than lead... It is just electromagnetic radiation, not nuclear radiation we are talking about.
As I mentioned in another comment here, sometimes people accidentally make their houses/apartments into accidental semi-"faraday cages", where a lot of the signals ends up getting blocked. (of course not all signal, but a large reduction is still something).
But keep in mind, if you are shielded from signals, you will also not have your cell-phone working, and so on.
Build a simple Faraday cage if you want shielding, don't gotta become Nemo lad
Is that why my ears started ringing sometimes constantly?
As a professional tower climber for cellular infrastructure, this guys speaking truth, non ionizing radiation is only able to heat stuff really slowly. It doesn't change the structure like ionizing. Learn about radiation
I mean when u think about E=mc^2 sound transfers to vibrations and that can be picked up by a electric nueral system and well ya know E=mc^2 that's basic science yall
What about on a cellular level?
I might get hit by a bus tomorrow.
I might jump in front of a bus today!
BT IEMs sound like crap anyway. Wire for the win!
it's not ionizing. that's the point that makes it harmless.
Just wait until those people learn about the sun lmao
From health fact they deny .
From the cybersecurity perspective Bluetooth devices are most easily compromised.
Im so worried about someone accessing my Spotify 😂
@@prodbybabygod7411what if not your Spotify but your phone data
This video should be called. “Idiot asks scientist stupid question and is given the correct answer but probably won’t listen.”
His answer does not inspire confidence in his lack of precision and differentiation "no matter where you live." Come on, specify, you have the microphone.vHis reply is not better than hearsay that we get everyday from anyone on internet or around town.
I haven't seen the whole interview but Huberman can be general oftentimes - perhaps a bit of crowd pleaser who never truly sticks his neck on the line and define certain things (mitigating any controversy - and probably why he's accepted in the mainstream without censorship). Come on Huberman owes us more than just constant suggestions without a clear-cut bottom line.
I swear I can see and feel when I get hit by damaging stray radiation rays. Rarer to see more than often feel, when it’s in vision it’s a pin dot the shade of clear white light that’s perceptible like a single frame, like a snap shot I can hover on only if I manage to blink as my body registers the hit. In body hits is what’s explained by others as chronic pain however it’s within precise location where the sensation feels like that moment you peak sun burned skin off, sharpe and quick but noticeable within the body.
Should probably see a doctor my dude
The white dots could be white blood cells moving inside your eyes.
It is known as Blue field entoptic phenomenon, and as far as I can tell is normal in most cases.
www.mouches-volantes.com/intro/entoptic_phenomenon-entoptische_erscheinungen.pdf
The other symptoms you mentioned I don’t know.
If you’re scared of wearing Bluetooth headphones, you need to grow a pair because there’s a lot worse things to worry about.
Learning about Waves in physics my teacher once showed and made us describe why a chocolate melted in the microwave and why only in spots with a lot of distance between them (it wasn't spinning).
The energy that it took to melt a chocolate is insane. Short wave radio travels across the planet and it's negligible compared to the microwave oven. You are far from considering to give radio waves relevance when calculating with the energy levels of a microwave oven.
Your microwave oven uses about 1 kW, 1,000 Watts. Bluetooth has less than 100mW, 0.1W.
You need a thousand times more energy to even have the wave go through you body (x-Ray). Saying Bluetooth is dangerous is like saying your moped is as powerful as a plane.
Electro Magnetic Field fields...?
So yes we are washed in EMF now a days but the more it increases the more it effects us. My house went from my wife’s phone and mine. Now it’s 3 phones, 2 iPads, 1 lap top and WiFi that runs 24/7! There’s no way that the increased in numbers of devices isn’t effecting us.
But we dont know what the long term effects of this level of bombardment are yet
Cellphone companies have to provide a SAR rating, which determines how much radiation the phone emits to the user when the face of the phone is being directed towards the head of the user. In Europe, the allowable SAR value is lower than in the U.S.. The latest iPhone, for example, did not get European approval for this reason. If this is what they allow, you can only imagine what is actually best for your health. Use your discretion and think critically about the real effects of Bluetooth, and not just 'what we're told is safe' about it.
Further, our heads are full of water and electrolytes that conduct electromagnetic radiation.
When he said you are constantly surrounded with that, he probably means the huge ammount of cosmos radiation which comes from far away from the Earth and gets in contact with you every second of your life.
And if it weren't so, headlines would have gone all around the wrold with that information.
what are you blabbering, latest iphone is not having any problems, it was the iphone 12, and that was an issue in France before they threw a tantrum. So to assuage the French, other EU countries decided to "look into it" while the French have their Karen moment.
It's fine 🙂 🙃
The amount of ignorance about electronics in this comment is insane.
I think the point of this video was to illustrate that we are actually constantly getting bombarded by harmful cosmic radiation constantly throughout our lives that greatly exceed any level produced by modern electronics. Modern electronics have tiny batteries and have to be very efficient in order to have decent battery life. Heck we say the sun is good for our healthy but just 1 hr of direct sunlight exposure on a sunny day can greats increase your risk of skin cancer unless you use protection. Look at anybody who was worked under the sun for large periods of their life and you will see their skin is lightly damaged. The least of your worries is the signal from your headphones.
How about non-ionizing radiation?
I cant wear them anymore. I get headaches and this is serious. Wasted $130 on what i thought was quality headphones. Soundcore liberty 3 pro.
same, when taking them out it feels like I'm unscrewing a big ass screw from my ears. Do you also "feel" people's energy?
Who is Andrew interviewing?
Dr Matthew Macdougall.
Dude if you live in the city radio waves from electronic devices is least of your worries, just check what particles come out of car exhaust.
Eliminating some of the worries decreases overall risk. Are you seriously implying that because you can't control one risk, you should ignore all other risks?
Unless you live under huge amounts of water. What does he mean by that?
Guys if your scared of Bluetooth you can also be scared of your router and the sun(thats actually ionizing). Your skull is so dense that these light like particles wont make it through to do damage.
There are some who disagree with your conclusion. Their disagreement rests on actual studies.
How many black swans does it take to nullify the claim that black swans don't exist?
One. It takes only one swan to nullify that claim.
How many instances of harm does it take to nullify the claim that cell phone emissions aren't harmful?
One. It takes only one instance of harm to nullify that claim.
Had there been at least one instance of harm? Yes, there has. So... with that in mind, your rationalization has no teeth.
Let's hope that one day neither you, nor anyone you love, find themselves diagnosed with cancer and 6-months to live. That would suck, wouldn't it? Especially if it was a loved one whom you told to use the cell phones because they're totally safe.
You might also consider this:
_"Determining wireless radiation’s health effects with certainty is difficult. Researchers cannot ethically subject people to endless hours of cellphone radiation to gauge the results.

The precautionary principles states that if in doubt, abstain.
Then, there's the issue of 'conflicts of interest'. The studies that say cell phone emissions are harmless just happen to be funded by industry dollars. If consumers stop buying cell phone products and services, they stand to lose billions.
They're betting that you want your cell phone today, more than you care about cancer tomorrow. And, that's a bet that they're winning.
And, just like the tobacco played their games in court with the 'you can't prove cigarette smoking causes cancer' line, so too does industry care to take the chance that if they ever get taken to court, they'll be able to play the same game.
So, if an ordinary human like me or you wish not to be gridlocked by those with massive wealth, who can afford to postpone trial after trial via legal tactics, we'd do well to consider whether another round of Angry Birds is worth that cancer diagnosis with 6-months to live.
But hey, I'm trying to be helpful here. In the end, it's your choice. Please choose wisely.

Yea WiFi is everywhere
I know this is only anecdotal, but Bluetooth headphones made me feel dizzy when I wore them, now I wear wired…
Which sucks because I loved the freedom of Bluetooth, but it just wasn’t worth it for me to keep using them…
I can’t explain how it affected me scientifically, all I can guess is maybe it somehow it is able to disrupt the energy sphere within the brain when worn in the ears…
Bluetooth headphones emit non-ionizing radiation, which is generally considered safe for human health. Non-ionizing radiation includes radio waves, microwaves, and visible light, and it lacks the energy to ionize atoms or molecules, which means it doesn't have the potential to damage DNA or cells.
Ionizing radiation, on the other hand, has enough energy to remove tightly bound electrons from atoms or molecules, potentially causing harm and increasing the risk of cancer.
So, in the case of Bluetooth headphones, you should not be concerned about ionizing radiation being harmful to your health. They are designed to emit low-power, non-ionizing radiofrequency (RF) radiation to transmit audio signals, and there is no established evidence to suggest that this type of radiation poses a significant health risk. However, if you are still concerned, you can use Bluetooth headphones at a safe distance and limit prolonged exposure, but the risk is considered very low.
Even if the power of EMF is great it still won't cause any harm as there is dependency on the wavelength, each spectrum affect different molecules differently
Yes, that's a ridiculously dumb question. First of all, bluetooth uses the same frequencies as traditional Wi-Fi (Usually 2.4 GHz), also your (and any other router) will have to produce that signal at a way bigger range, but I take it no one ever smashed their own router or cellphone for fear of radiation.
Secondly, any electric device produces an electromagnetic field, which includes wired headphones as well.
Third, most people keep their phones next to their genitals all day long.
I could go on but you get the gist.
dont understand how ridiculously dumb every ‘content’ creater is 😂
The sound quality is better wired though!
I went through That tourist tunnel today that used localised 4G/5G transmission. Aside from feeling very uncomfortable during/after exposure, I was fine (as far as I can tell)>
Only time will tell! I’d rather error on the side of caution! Rather than too little too late
Me watching this whilst wearing bluetooth headphones 😮🧐🧐
If you are suspectable to EMF and it bothers you like it did me, Your health is extreme risk probably due to underlying factors like mold.
I used to get rashes wearing an apple watch, get headaches with wifi... Started getting healthier and now I air pod maxes almost everyday with no issue.
Oh I'm worried about it, but this is one group where I'm willing to be a participant in the study. And I'm not worried about tumors, as that's a cell reproduction issue. I'm far more worried about losing specific functions of my brain where the waves pass through, like how if you blast heavy metal all day you go deaf over time.
You go deaf from PHYSICAL TRAUMA to hairs in your ear drum. That is not the same as emf fields passing through your brain.... can you elaborate on losing brain function? What brain functions? As a result of what? It's arbitrary fear
The human body is “stronger” than mainstream knowledge lets on.
If you are worried about EMF RF from Bluetooth. 🎉 They've found that the radiation is much less when only one is in use. If I'm working out I use both. If I'm in a relaxed setting I only activate 1 headphone.
But what abt the cumulative effect of WiFi, electric cars & all the gizmos ppl use daily
OMG THANK YOU! Everyone I talk to says “it’s dangerous to wear bluetooth” or whatever blah blah.
Make a circle made of steel wool put your dell phone in the middle ask someone to call you watch the Show
I only worry about a solar flair exploding them. Idk if its possible or not
Bluetooth power is really weak, but I get a headache when using a mobile phone, so I think the dangers are not fully understood. Maybe the brain capillar work as antenna, and collect to much power locally.
Idiot. I shit myself when i eat ice cream, but it doesn't mean ice cream is a laxative. Look up chuck mcgill
Our own sensitivities vary greatly to this kind of technology. Some people are broad tough people who can withstand this and not notice a thing. Others it can seriously disrupt our bodies. Yes we're around it continuously but it doesnt mean it's acceptable. I work out in the countryside and can notice the difference to the town environment I live in. Reading between the lines on this issue is way more real than "it is or it isn't". I can hear the high pitched waves raging in my ears in the silent night time, I live with it, put up with it, people around me don't notice it. Not one size fits all and blanket statements mitigate responsibilities from those in positions of economic gains.
Sounds like you have tinnitus.
