Phones and Wi-Fi, according to scientists, can induce Alzheimer disease
Per a recent study, our cell phones and excessive exposure to Wi-Fi radiation may have a role in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease.
According to a news release regarding the findings, the majority of experts think that Alzheimer's disease is caused by an abnormal accumulation of calcium in the brain. According to the study, electromagnetic fields (EMF) may contribute to the calcium accumulation. Energy of this sort is released by gadgets such as cell phones.
“Electromagnetic fields act through time-varying electrical spikes and magnetic forces on a nanosecond scale. Any one of these can produce anyone's worst nightmare: extremely early-onset Alzheimer's disease," said study author Martin Pall of Washington State University. In addition, he states that young people who are exposed to "radiation from cell phones or Wi-Fi" for many hours a day are at risk of developing "digital dementia."
Electromagnetic fields have been connected to health concerns in the past. While the National Cancer Institute states that a relationship between EMFs and cancer is improbable and that typical levels of EMFs have no effect on people, Healthline reports that other, more prevalent ailments have been linked to EMFs, such as irritation, headaches, and sleeplessness.
The link between Alzheimer's disease and cell phones is still being studied, albeit not as thoroughly as it should be, as it is now a secondary issue, perhaps even sinister, that it is not studied more thoroughly, given the widespread use of mobile devices, which should be sufficient to warrant further investigation.

What's the source of this?
"According to a news release regarding the findings, the majority of experts think that Alzheimer's disease is caused by an abnormal accumulation of calcium in the brain."
I'm not sure who this majority is, calcium dysregulation is a fairly recent hypothesis that has gained traction as a cause of symptoms, but I've never heard of anyone talk about 'Calcium Buildup' ever. Looks more like the author meant Amyloid Plaque buildup which is a key marker for the disease and is linked to calcium homeostasis dysregulation. (But i've been out of the neuroscience game for a while, things may have changed, although i don't see much reference to the keywords on pubmed)
I'm going to assume this is unpublished data which is being used as a way to get lab grants and investment, which i can't blame the PI for because that's one of the best ways to get it done.
Very interested to see how they've been testing this.

I've heard about that (calcium being evil and might be the cause), but I guess it's not for sure yet? Also, I've downloaded the paper, no time to read it yet, and I'm not a medical expert / worker.
But I guess they're all about this:
Abstract: Electronically generated electromagnetic fields (EMFs), including those used in wireless communication such as cell phones, Wi-Fi and smart meters, are coherent, producing very high electric and magnetic forces, which act on the voltage sensor of voltage-gated calcium channels to produce increases in intracellular calcium i. The calcium hypothesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has shown that each of the important AD-specific and nonspecific causal elements is produced by excessive i. i acts in AD via excessive calcium signaling and the peroxynitrite/oxidative stress/inflammation pathway, which are each elevated by EMFs.An apparent vicious cycle in AD involves amyloid-beta protein (Aβ) and i. Three types of epidemiology suggest EMF causation of AD, including early onset AD. Extensive animal model studies show that low intensity EMFs cause neurodegeneration, including AD, with AD animals having elevated levels of Aβ, amyloid precursor protein and BACE1. Rats exposed to pulsed EMFs every day are reported to develop universal or near universal very early onset neurodegeneration, including AD; these findings are superficially similar to humans with digital dementia. EMFs producing modest increases in i can also produce protective, therapeutic effects. The therapeutic pathway and peroxynitrite pathway inhibit each other. A summary of 18 different findings is provided, which collectively provide powerful evidence for EMF causation of AD. The author is concerned that smarter, more highly pulsed “smart” wireless communication may cause widespread very, very early onset AD in human populations.
Also, sauce is available if you click yourself through the sauces given by OP.

Oh lol I have never noticed that Source button before XD,
Will have a read if it

Apparently at some location that gives you Alzheimers.
And take my post with a big grain of salt because it's meant to be sarcastic. Especially the second line.
