There have been numerous research reports claiming that cell phone usage doesn't cause any physical harm. However, now there are concerns about the impact of cell phone on hearing.

As many people age they may find it more difficult to hear.  Some hearing loss is due to overexposure of noise. However, a new research study is claiming that hearing loss can also be blamed on cell phones. (See Video) The study claims that people who use cell phones for about an hour per day had a harder time hearing high frequency sounds, especially in their right ear where most people tend to hold their cell phones.

Diabetes is one of the most common conditions in the United States, with almost 20 million Americans living with the type 2 form of the disease. But there are many millions more people with blood sugar levels that are high, but not high enough to be classified as type 2 diabetes. This is known as prediabetes, and carries with it an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

An estimated 41 million Americans between the ages of 40 and 74 have prediabetes according to the CDC, but its prevalence is growing in younger Americans as the obesity epidemic spreads.
