Cell phones today are so popular and convenient that almost everyone, including children, is using them. It’s estimated that more than 110 million Americans, and two billion people worldwide, use cell phones. As the number of cell phones, cell phone towers, and other wireless antennas increases rapidly everywhere.
Scientists all over the world are discovering shocking results about cell phones. Many studies are being done that expose the real dangers of frequent and long-term cell phone usage. Scientists have found the first evidence linking brain cancer with cell phone use. It was found that users who spend more than an hour a day talking on a cell phone have a higher risk of developing a rare form of brain tumor. Most frequently, the cancers were found on the side of the head that the user held the phone up to. According to a scientific review of 11 studies, using your cell phone for 10 years or longer will double your risk of getting a tumor on a nerve connecting your ear to your brain. It typically takes at least 10 to 20 years for cancers to show up, so now is the time when these risks will become apparent.
Dr. George Carlo presents the shocking facts in his book, Cell Phones: Invisible Hazards in the Wireless Age: An Insider’s Alarming Discoveries About Cancer and Genetic Damage. In the 1990’s, Dr. George Carlo was given a $28 million grant from the cell phone industry to do research and prove that cell phones are safe. Dr. Carlo, an MD and professor at George Washington Medical School with a degree in public health, took the challenge. After his research, he found that cell phones do cause damage. The cell phone industry offered him a position for $1 million a year to silence him, but he refused to be bought, and he started a nonprofit organization with a mission to inform the world of this danger.
Professor Denis Henshaw, head of the Human Radiation Effects Group at Bristol University, says: “We are steeped in denial over the safety of mobile phones and related technologies.” He points, as an example, to a recent Austrian study which found a raised risk of breast cancer near phone masts. “We have emission levels in the UK similar to those in Austria and yet there is no warning to people of possible dangers.”
A study last month reported that out of 360 men attending an infertility clinic, those who used their mobile the most had the poorest sperm quality. Last October, two Swedish professors pulled together the results of 11 studies involving people who had used mobiles for more than a decade and found they were 20 per cent more likely to develop a benign tumour in the inner ear, and 30 per cent more likely to develop a type of brain tumour known as a malignant glioma.
The German government has taken a more cautious line over wi-fi. Last September, the German environment ministry recommended that people should keep their exposure to radiation as low as possible by replacing wi-fi with a cabled connection. Three years ago, the Vienna Chamber of Doctors put up more than 21,000 posters in surgeries and other places with very specific warnings about mobile phones, such as: “Use your phone as little as possible” and “Men – never keep a phone in your trouser pockets as it can reduce fertility.”
Common health challenges that have been linked to regular exposure to radio frequency radiation include:
• Abnormal cell growth and damage to cellular DNA.
• Difficulty sleeping, depression, anxiety, and irritability.
• Childhood and adult leukemia.
• Eye cancer.
• Immune system suppression.
• Attention span deficit and memory loss.
• Infertility.
Today, the cell phone industry, just like the tobacco industry, seems determined to deny that cell phones might be dangerous; however, there are hundreds of studies from prominent scientists and universities all over the world that prove that cell phones emit dangerous radioactive waves that can damage your ear, brain, neck and body.
If you choose to use it, then please consider the following:
Protect your children: Children are at much higher risk than adults of experiencing health problems related to regular exposure to radiation; thinner and smaller skulls translate to greater absorption of the radiation.
• Never hold an infant while talking on the cell phone.
• Do not let children use cell phone.
• Don’t let children play with the cell phone.
• Keep cell phones away from children.
When you are using a cell phone:
• Limit the amount of time you spend on the phone.
• Use the speakerphone instead of putting the phone to your ear.
• Don’t use a bluetooth headset. Wireless and wired headsets still conduct radiation.
• Get air tube headsets that conduct sound but prevent radiation from traveling up the wire to your brain.
• Limit calls inside buildings.
• Use the phone in open spaces as often as possible.
• Do not talk on your cell phone and drive. Even with hands-free operation, you are at risk because your focus and concentration is on the conversation, not on the road.
• Be alert to the drivers who drive while talking on their cell phones.
• Keep the cell phone at least 6-7 inches away from your body and others while it’s on and you’re talking, text messaging and downloading.
• Keep the phone about two feet away from anybody.
When you are not using the cell phone:
• Turn the cell phone off when not in use and when you’re sleeping.
• Never keep it near your head or use it to play games, movies, etc.
• When you’re not using your phone, keep it as far away from your body as possible.
• Do not keep the phone on your belt or in your pocket, as the radiation will penetrate your body wherever the phone is attached, and it will expose the hip bones to radiation. Eighty percent of red blood cells are formed in the hip bones. Close proximity may also affect fertility.
• Turn cell phones off at night.
The best way to protect yourself is, of course, not to use a cell phone, and keep one just for emergency use. That is what I decided to do after the birth of my son, Jaden, it was one of the best decisions I ever made. Besides all the health benefits, I have more freedom to talk to people and return calls when I am ready and have the time for that call, no stress. With the cell phone, you’re always accessible, and people expect you to always answer your phone regardless of the call’s importance.
