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.

Nonsense, pseudo-science junk. Shame on you for posting this and giving it even the light of day.
We are BATHED in EMF of all kinds of frequencies and powers every day of our lives from natural and cosmic sources.
Even if there ever was any kind of possible problem, not only would we have known about this DECADES ago, but it would have been MORE prevalent then because the phones were cruder, used higher energy, etc. than the very low amounts of EMF generated by phones, etc. today.
Every ten years or so, some kook peddles this nonsense and some purely clickbait source picks it up and runs with it, generating more clickbait from 24/7 "ads not news" channels...and more panic amongst the ignorant and gullible.
And, in response the post above, the only people who ever called Global Warming "quack science" were the handful of crooks bought and paid for by big oil. The consensus for global climate change has been established by 99.99% of the scientific community across all fields for over forty years now...and we still have liars and crooks peddling enough disinformation about it that we've missed the chance to passively stop the issue and now must take active measures to save the planet and our species.
Whereas, every single one of these "EMF causes X" claims have failed to be replicated for over fifty years now. The lack of EVIDENCE is why we in the scientific community don't believe these claims, not denial.
Reality doesn't care what you are irrationally afraid of or what you want to be true so you feel better.

This is the kind of stuff I tell people who honestly think WiFi or 5G is going to cause cancer, despite the fact neither are ionizing, both emit a miniscule amount of power (100mW for WiFi) compared to what you get when you stand outside, and the power emitted gets exponentially weaker as you get farther away.
Let's not forget that waves around 2.4GHz to 5GHz are often absorbed by water, and that the higher frequency waves like you find in 5G are probably going to be reflected by the skull.
Whenever people get cancer, Alzheimers, or whatever other life-changing ailment comes their way, they want something to point fingers at when the cause is otherwise ambiguous. The inverse is also true, where people will justify a bad behavior like smoking or excessive drinking "because
Confirmation biases are dangerous and a nuisance.

Hey y'all good folks, I gotta big question?
if I turned off my Wi-Fi and just used an ethernet cord can I still drink my cold beer and be good to go?
Edit: after 30 minutes of no Wi-Fi and two beers I feel better already!

intresting it true, then again even if it is none of this will go away, humanity is to addicted to this stuff now. they would just bury it or look for new way to transmit it.
Once upon time people took "global warming" as quack science, since then it been proven by multiple scientist, and people still think is fake, if people want think something is fake they gona think it fake no mater what proof is thrown at them.
The depths of denial have no limit
