Is it possible for body chemistry to interfere with electronics?

Every pair of headphones, ear buds, ect. that I have ever owned just seem to break. Either one or both of the speakers just stop working after a couple months with no visible damage on the outside. There have been about 15-20 pairs that this has happened to and they aren't cheap ones either. Well, my mom had the idea that maybe it has something to do with my body chemistry interfering, but neither of us are sure. So what do you think? Is it possible, or do I just need to buy a hella expensive pair of headphones?

It could be the way you roll up the cable when they're not in use. If the bends are too sharp or too tight then you will fracture the conductors inside the cable. Laying heavy objects on them could give similar results.
 
It is possible that the chemical charges in your body can affect things, but it is highly unlikely. The amount of electrical charge a human body produces is able to be measured, but it is really, REALLY small. It's more likely that you're just wearing out your headphones, especially if you've had them for a few months. I know I use my headphones almost daily and they just wear out.The wires inside are extremely thin and break very easily and this happens whether there is external damage or not.
