Mobile phones helpful against Alzheimer's?

After all of the negative studies against them, this is interesting. More studies need to be done though the early testing will raise eyebrows. Someone would have to be on the phone quite a lot to see any supposed benefit and one can only imagine what other issues that may trigger. BBC News:

The researchers, led by Professor Gary Arendash, said that if the phone exposure was started when the Alzheimer's mice were young adults, before signs of memory impairment were apparent, their cognitive ability was protected.

In fact, the Alzheimer's mice performed as well on tests measuring memory and thinking skills as aged mice without dementia.

If older Alzheimer's mice already showing memory problems were exposed to the electro-magnetic waves, their memory impairment disappeared.
