Brain, Nerves, Smartphones, EVs, EMFs: Health Impact Explored

The connection between brain health, nerves, smartphones, electric vehicles (EVs), and electromagnetic fields (EMFs) is a hot topic. Smartphones emit radiofrequency (RF) energy, measured by SAR, with 5G raising exposure concerns. They also affect cognition via screen time and blue light, potentially altering neural pathways. EVs, powered by lithium-ion batteries, produce low-frequency EMFs from electric […]
