Question

Ipod bad for the heart?
I heard that the ipod was bad for your heart. They say that it can increase your heart beat over a long amount of time. Is this true? I listen to my ipod almost everyday. Should I not listen to it anymore. Or maybe less? Could i have problems with my heart when i get older?

Answer

I dont think its bad for your heart but I did read in Glamour that constant noise in your ears can harm your hearing. brbrYou should let your ears rest every couple of hours and consider getting a dock to listen to it with some distance from a speaker.brbrThis sounds like the cell phone cancer rumors. The article you are referring to says it can interfere with pacemakers electronics that regulate your heartbeat. If you dont have a pacemaker implanted in your heart, it should be ok.
