Bluetooth headphones might cause serious damage, new research has shown. (🧵1/7)

This study was published last year in Nature. While it is an epidemiological study, the researchers implemented several techniques to minimize confounding variables. They did this by "matching" people with Propensity Score Matching (PSM). That means they found a "twin" for

They then used machine learning to predict what factors were most associated with thyroid nodules. The machine predicted nodules with 95% accuracy. In other words, this robot they made was almost perfect at guessing whether or not someone had a thyroid nodule just on their

Aside from age, ALL of the biggest factors were related to bluetooth headphone usage. āž„ Usage time āž„ Wearing it in ears āž„ Using at work etc. The rest of the variables (education, income, smoking, etc.) had much smaller or negligible effects. (4/7)

Mainstream health organizations / media outlets are quick to dismiss bluetooth as having any hazards, since they are non-ionizing. But we have reason to be skeptical. Exposing cells to this type of radiation reduce cell viability, while increasing reactive oxygen species

One of the most well studied effects of this type of radiation is its ability to open up calcium channels. Calcium acts as an important signaling molecule in cells / organelles, having calcium overload these systems chronically can lead to: āž® Cell death āž® Inflammation āž®

Here's a brief rundown on the effects of microwave radiation (including bluetooth frequencies). We are bathing in this type of radiation at all times, not just due to bluetooth, but: ✲ Wi-Fi ✲ Cell phones ✲ Microwave ovens ✲ Other radars (GPS, etc) They're impossible to

@Outdoctrination Most research so far shows that normal Bluetooth exposure doesn’t cause significant health issues. Lab studies sometimes see effects at much higher intensities than what we get from everyday devices.

@BioProtocolEco you're literally a robot representing the mainstream media, i addressed you in the thread, which you didn't read because, and i cannot stress this enough, you are not a sentient being you are a robot

@Outdoctrination Please post a link to the paper, or at least the DOI to it.

@BeachTruck i did, read the whole thread

@Outdoctrination This study is a complete piece of crap.

@jhreha nice criticism

@Outdoctrination @SolBrah proven right again

@Outdoctrination There's also emf in our walls emitting from the sockets. We're cooked

@Outdoctrination Your thread is everybody's favorite! #TopUnroll https://threadreaderapp.com/th... šŸ™šŸ¼@emigenix for šŸ„‡unroll

@Outdoctrination Any detox methods?

@Outdoctrination @grok wait I wear my headphones religiously like half a day what does this mean for me

@Outdoctrination It is important to be cautious and mindful of the volume levels when using Bluetooth headphones to prevent any potential harm to hearing health

@Outdoctrination I had severe upper left back pain for six years every single day. I had MRIs ultrasounds x-rays, all kinds of stuff one day I realized it was my Iwatch with metal band. I took it off pain gone within a day put it back on a month later pain returned right away. Not good.

@Outdoctrination Wired headphones with a ferrite bean on the wire. Preferably used on airplane mode when possible.

@Outdoctrination This makes sense because in the end we are an electrical being.

@Outdoctrination Not surprised always felt off and headaches when using Bluetooth headphones

@Outdoctrination Uugghhhh i love these pods i recently bought. Whyyyy cant stuff be good

@Outdoctrination @grok wykonaj analizę i podaj wnioski

@Outdoctrination Unroll please.
