Hi friends,
which ear you often use to listen to the phone.
That sounds no difference,or maybe like a psychological test.
NO,we should use the left one,especially listening the cell phone.
Why?
because the radiation!Using right one can hurt the brain directly.But the left one's nervous is not connected with the brain directly.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but both sides of your brain are connected to each other by a structure within the brain called the corpus callosum. The corpus callosum allows both sides of the brain to interact with each other, allowing people to perform mental and physical tasks through the communication between both sides of the brain. Any part of your body would not be "safe" from any radiation that it was exposed to from your phone. I don't know who told you this, but it scientifically impossible.

Thank you friend,I shoud respond you again,just I have typed is disappeared,but it does not matter.
Your are right about any part of your body would not be safe from any radiation,but I would rather it happen a little slower.I just read it from some book on health,and I will try to find the scientific foundation,thank you friend again.Have a good day.

I usually keep my phone in my right pocket so I will pick it up with my right hand and put it to my right ear. I will sometimes swap, depending on where the phone is and what else I'm doing at the time. I can hear better with my right ear than with my left although I will sometimes have my phone on speaker so I don't have to put it next to my ear at all.
I don't know where you have got your information from but I would like to check out it's authenticity. Radiation from 1000 phones doesn't even warm a small egg so why would one do any damage to a person (unless they were permanently attached to it of course!)

I guess I would have to buy a hands-free or train myself to use the left ear since I always use my right ear when on the phone. I'm left handed and would like to get my left hand free when talking on the phone since I like taking down notes. Thanks for the info, Yullar..I will keep that in mind and would try using my other ear.

I usually use my left ear when I am on the phone. Alot of times I will hold the phone betweeen my left ear and my left shoulder so I can do other things I really need to get a hands free set!

Usually when I am talking on the phone I will switch it between ears,depending on what else I am doing,who I am on the phone with,and how long I plan to be on the phone,because switching between ears seems to be the only way to stay comfortable.

Thanks for that information... I usually use the right ear and now I know so I'll make it to the left next time. Thanks to you... For long calls I switch it to both ears.

I've always used my left hand and ear - I think its from when I worked in an office and needed to keep my right hand free to write messages etc. Nice to know I'm doing the right thing. I look through telescopes and camera viewfinders with my left eye but I'm right handed.

Since I use my right hand to hold my cell phone, the cell phone will automatically goes up to my right ear. But what you say is quite scary. From now on, I shall use more hands-free. In that case, I only use ear piece and the radiation cannot get to my brain.

Hello,yullar! Normally i use my left hand and ear when using a cell phone.but i am not a left hander.usually i keep my right hand free while talking over phone for some other purpose if required.suppose some body is giving some information which you require to note down.if you will use the right hand and right ear it will be inconvenient to write.so i use my left hand and ear while talking over phone.if the talk is lingered than change the ear and hand.thanx.

Normally, I use my right ear to listen and talk on the phone. Even if I am using a separate earpiece, I still use the right ear. Now if I'm on the phone for an extremely long time, I eventually HAVE to change over to the left ear.
There have been a few times when I've had my bluetooth earpiece on my left ear while I'm driving, but once my phone rang, I felt totally out of sorts because it was on the wrong ear. It's strange since I've never really thought of it before until you said it. Now it all makes sense.

good info i normally use the right ear but i will change it now as you have give the information about the brain directly being connected at the right side ... i think it will take a while to change this habit although.
