A studies suggest that talking via cell phone can increase blood pressure.

Researchers from Guglielmo da Saliceto Hospital in Italy involving 94 men and women who have low to moderate blood pressure in this study.

Respondents were randomly assigned to receive a phone call from his cell phone. While sitting in a chair in a room, they were left chatting and checked his blood pressure.

The result, shown an increase in blood pressure from 121/77 to 129/82 during the talk with mobile phones.

But it only happens to someone who often chat via mobile phone more than 30 minutes each day.

Although still not sure why talking by mobile phone can make hypertension, chief researcher Dr. G. Crippa suspect it happens because of an unusual disorder that is received by a person through a phone call.

"Our respondents were mostly young men and women. Seems like they are not accustomed to be disturbed by calls via mobile phones," said the researcher, as quoted by The Daily News.

The results are then reported to the meeting of the American Society of Hypertension in San Francisco.
