Health Concerns

[joonyaboy]

Sounds more like not understanding the science more than anything...

Care to elaborate on the underlined?

I'll see if I can find the studies but I have listened to a few lectures from Dr. Jack Kruse over the WiFi concerns.

Yet you likely drive on the express way, drink milk or eat meat from cows treated with high-dose antibiotics and fly on airplanes (more ionizing radiation than you'll ever get from your wifi base station in a lifetime).

The reduction in exposure from your actions with your electronics is thousanths of a percentage compared to your average daily exposure from all the things you can't control.

I'm sure you're right, but we get our raw grass-fed milk from a local farmer and we don't fly (but I will if the need ever arises).

I'm not afraid of living life, I just minimize risk in areas I'm capable of. Some people are more susceptible than others.

The small things I avoid are just me trying to be the healthiest person I can. Now I must go to sleep and enjoy a deep rest as it is late and computer screens are bad for your health and circadian rhythm

Unfortunately, almost everything known to man gives you cancer nowadays according to media.... Don't worry about it, lifes too short.

Everything just about does. But I'm not worried, just careful.

Read up. Drop the quack.

I always find it interesting when people are overly concerned about this type of thing. We are more likely to die of disease caused by the food, drink and drugs (prescription or otherwise) we consume...

Not the best source, but listening to Robin's News on Howard Stern, she read a new article about the dangers of these devices. Howard refuses to wear the watch because of cancer fears, and never talks on his phone without the speaker phone or hands-free. He also wont put the phone in his pocket based on what the article said.

Shades of the Jenny McCarthy vaccine debacle. When will people stop citing celebrities as sources on health matters. They have been going on about this crap for years and to date have not been able to substantiate it. You get more radiation exposure on an airplane ride and you don't see flight attendants dropping like flies.

this is one of those things that you just don't know. People have strong opinions, all going every which way.

I think it basically just boils down to WTF.

WTF

Life is short. Enjoy it with your new Apple watch.

If you're worried about the radiation from a smart watch or phone, I strongly suggest you never expose yourself to direct sunlight, fly or get an x Ray or ct scan, and you need to get rid of your microwave.

I work around ionizing radiation, non ionizing is everywhere and very safe.

Howard Stern is a low brow entertainervat best. The last thing I would take from him is health advice.
