F.Y.I. Report Links Cell Phone Use To Brain Damage

The Interphone study, begun in 1999, researched the risk of brain tumors as well as other harmful health suspicions linked to cell phone use. Health concerns are: Brain Tumors, Eye Cancer, Testicular Cancer, Salivary Gland Tumors, Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, and Leukemia. A special warning for children younger than age 8 to not use cell phones except for emergencies because their brains can absorb more radiation. Teenagers should limit calls to less than 10 minutes. The U.K., Belgium, Germany, France and Russia have issued precautions regarding cell phone use due to potential health risks. Austria reports in the last 10 years a 21% increase in brain tumors in children. The U.K. and Europe report a 40%increase in brain tumors over the last 20 years.

1. Buy A Low-Radiation Phone - Look up your phone at ewg.org/cellphone-radiation.
2. Use A Headset Or Use the Speaker - Headsets emit continuous low-leveal radiation.
3. Listen More and Talk Less - Cell phones emit radiation when you talk or text, but not when receiving messages.
4. Hold Phone Away From Body - Don't keep it on your belt or in a pocket.
5. Choose Texting Over Talking
6. Bad Signal? Stay Off The Phone - Fewer signal bars means the cell phone will emit more radiation to get the signal to the tower.
7. Limit Children's Phone Use - Young children's brains absorb twice the cell phone radiation as an adult's.
8. Skip The Radiation Shield - antenna caps and keypad covers reduce the connection quality and force the phone to transmit at a higher power with higher radiation.
