I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. Smart phones are not so smart after all. According to Yahoo Menshealth, smart phones are hurting your health. If you have read my recent post, within the past few weeks, you know how I am not dealing well with my new smart phone. It is nothing but an irritating miniature game boy. If I need to make a call that I can understand, I have to find a phone booth. And, now the experts are saying you should not hold your phone to your ear for long periods of time. It might cause brain damage. That would explain my financial controller’s thought processes. She talks on the phone constantly.
It seems that all that typing and tapping and swiping on your phone touchscreen is nothing more than a haven for germs. What ever you do, don’t text and wipe your eyes, according to the article, because you will run the risk of eye infection.
And, speaking of eyes, the tiny screen puts far too much strain on your eyes. Eye strain can cause eye problems, fatigue and headaches. I think the headaches are from trying to figure out what the heck is on the screen.
This one I already knew. Smart phones cause stress. You are never unreachable and all the calls, texts, emails and all that stuff can even make you think you got a message when there was none.
The solution: slowly wean yourself from the phone until you can spend at least two hours per day without using the dang thing. I strongly suggest that you submerse it in fifty feet of water and see what happens.
10,000 feet would be even better.
