If a "single product" that people can't do, the mobile phone is the first. Before going to bed, the last thing to see is it. After waking up, the first thing to see is it.

Many people use their mobile phones except sleep. However, do you know what terrible changes will happen to your body every day for more than 6 hours?

It's not scaring you, let's take a look together.

What changes will happen to the brain every day for more than 6 hours?

Cortex becomes thinner

Studies have found that children with more than 7 hours of electronic equipment such as mobile phones every day have thinner cerebral cortex. Those who often go online, their memory and language -related brain areas (prefabricated in the brain) are more than ten % smaller than normal people.

Decreased thinking ability

Those who like to think will have a stronger cognitive ability. Long -term use of mobile phones will make people really be too lazy to think. When encountering problems, choose to find answers through search engines. Studies have found that those who have used social media and entertainment software for a long time have low cognitive ability.

Focus and memory decrease

A Microsoft study showed that human attention dropped from an average of 12 seconds in 2000 to 8 seconds. People who like to use mobile phones are more accustomed to obtaining fragmented information, so the concentration cannot continue, and the average time to stay on each webpage does not exceed 15 seconds. A study at Stanford University found that the media's multi -tasking behavior (useful and multi -purpose) is related to the decline in concentration and memory. Of course, this association may not be a causal relationship.

Even if the mobile phone is mute or turned off, as long as the mobile phone is within the sight, the concentration and memory will be significantly reduced.

Emergency depression and other mental and psychological diseases

Studies have found that the longer the use of mobile phones, the higher the score of their anxiety and depression tables. Although there is no strong evidence that long -term mobile phones can lead to anxiety and depression. But long -term use of mobile phones may be a strong signs of depression or anxiety. Smart mobile phone addiction can lead to many negative results of young people, such as adventure behavior, loneliness and low self -esteem.

Addiction

The novel content of smartphones stimulates the brain to secrete dopamine. Dopamine is a reward chemical, which makes people feel pleasure. This pleasure duration is relatively short. If you want to get further pleasure, you need to repeatedly strengthen this behavior. Therefore, the time to use the mobile phone will become more and more, and when you stop, you will feel empty and boring.

Damaged social ability

Long -term indulging in mobile phones can lead to social ability degradation, change the awareness of the real world, and is not conducive to communication with others. This impact is more obvious on young people.

Phantom vibration syndrome

When the mobile phone is not in the range of sight or placed in the pocket, sometimes the phone vibration will be produced. This is because the brain needs a mobile phone at this time, so the illusion of mobile phone sounds. People who use their mobile phones for a long time will be more anxious when their mobile phones have no sound, and frequent hallucinations will occur.

Phone phobia

More and more people "do not leave their hands", every 10 minutes or even a few minutes to see the mobile phone. If you leave your phone, you will have anxiety or fear. Women are more likely to occur than men.

What are the changes in the body for more than 6 hours every day?

Mobile phone and mobile phone elbow

Frequent WeChat and playing mobile games can lead to finger spasm, muscle soreness, tendonhantitis and wrist tunnel syndrome. It is manifested as local pain, numbness, restricted activity and other symptoms. The elbow of the mobile phone is a tingling or numbness of the unknown and small fingers that appeared in the elbow for a long time.

Mobile phone neck or WeChat neck

Looking down at the mobile phone will increase the pressure of the neck and back muscles, this pressure is several times that of the usual situation. A survey of young British people showed that 84%of the respondents have experienced back pain caused by looking down at mobile phones. Looking at the mobile phone for a long time can cause changes in the physiological curvature of the cervical spine, the neck and shoulder muscle stiffness and pain, and the limited movement. In severe cases, the cervical intervertebral disc disease occurs, and the symptoms of numbness and weakness of the limbs occur.

Computer visual syndrome

Staring for the small font of the mobile phone text for a long time, and constantly brushing videos can cause eye fatigue, blurred vision, dizziness, and dry eyes. The symptoms of eyes and visual -related symptoms caused by long -term use of computers and mobile phones are "computer visual syndrome", also known as "digital eye fatigue". Visual vision and sore neck muscles can also cause headaches.

Using mobile phones for a long time can make mobile phone fonts. The distance between the mobile phone and the face is best kept above 40 cm. Looking up at the distance, blinking, and movement around the neck after a few minutes.

sleep disorder

Using mobile phones or tablets before sleeping will interfere with sleep. The blue light emitted on the screen of the mobile phone is absorbed by the eyesight protein, and then sends a signal to the brain. Using mobile phones before going to bed can cause difficulty falling asleep, fast eye movement and sleep reduction, deeper sleep, and disturbing sleep cycles. This impact will continue to turn off the phone.

For young people aged 14 to 17, if they use their mobile phones for 4 hours a day, the possibility of lack of sleep increases by 44%.

Science and technology make people progress. Smart mobile phones bring unprecedented convenience, but long -term use of mobile phones has a adverse effect on physical and mental health. Usually control the use time, more exercise, reading and thinking, and pay more attention to the world outside the phone.
