Don't talk for too long. Or maybe you can use the handsfree kit with wire for your brain health not the wireless one because it'll ignite some sort off electromagnetic wave which can effect your brain.

Just imagine what the mobile phone can do to your health if you have 2 mobiles, one in left pocket & another one in your right pocket. Or what if you put it in a pouch at your waist.

Broccoli is a cruciferous vegetable - a vegetable of the mustard family: especially mustard greens, various cabbages, broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, cress, bok choy and similar green leaf vegetables.

Making Calls During Thunder Storm


Is it safe to use your phone during thunder storm? Doing so, this may cause you to be strucked by lightning or electric shock which can be fatal.

Mobile phones if used, it produces a telecommunication signal that could attract lightning if use outdoor. But the electronic discharge will not be able to reach the mobile phone when it is used in the building during a storm.

Therefore, it is safer to use the mobile phones indoor rather than land lines. During storms, the electronic discharge along the land line can kill a land line phone users.

If a user is in a building during a lightning & storm, it would be safer to use the mobile phone not a land line but do not mobile phone outside during this particular time.
