Your cell phone is closer to you more than anything else, you take it everywhere, and probably even fall asleep while it’s still in your hand. According to a study on lab rats, the use of cell phones is associated with brain cancer. This is not to tell you that you need to throw away your smartphone now, but just like almost anything else, constant and excessive use of something makes it harmful.

Well, doctors recommend using a headset or the speaker when you’re talking on the phone, and also to never ever place your device closer to your pillow while sleeping.

Many people prefer sleeping with their heads completely hidden under the blanket. Whatever the reason why you may be doing this, you just need to stop doing it.

So, what happens when you sleep while covering your head with a blanket? You reduce the amount of oxygen that enters your body since you’ll be inhaling your own recycled air, which is loaded with carbon dioxide. This entire process causes a lack of oxygen to your brain.

Besides oxygen, your brain needs water. Everybody knows that the human brain consists of 70 to 80% water, so you can imagine how harmful dehydration can be for this organ.

In fact, water is responsible for delivering the vital substances to the brain so it can maintain optimal health, meaning that the brain works at its best when it doesn’t lack water.
