WHY SHOULD YOU CARE ABOUT CELL PHONE RADIATION?

Let’s be honest, we’re addicted to our smartphones. According to an ABC news report, the average person checks their phone 150 times per day, not to mention the other 15 hours per day it sits in your pocket. It’s also nothing new that cell phones emit Electromagnetic Fields/Radiation (EMF/EMR) when it’s glued to the side of our head more than 22 times per day.

This is why most major cell phone manufacturers include a warning--buried deep inside that manual you never read--to keep a certain distance between your body and your phone. Crazy right? The Today Show, and many others, have already warned their viewers/readers of the potential risks, including a study showing twice the risk of infertility in men who use their cell phones for just an hour a day.

Research shows that the effects of this can be even more harmful in youth and teens due to thinner skull bones which allow for greater exposure of cell phone radiation to the brain. One recent study has even shown a 5 times greater risk of brain cancer (glioma) in people who start using a cell phone before the age of 20.
