Cell phones affect people in many physical ways. There have been many studies dedicated to finding if the use of cellphones can lead to cancer. This concept has been proved and disproved through the years as technology has improved and our understanding changes. Recent…
Mobile phone uses electromagnetic waves for their function, and it is the major health hazard because of its radiation. Mobile phones cause many health hazards which are incurable. If the cell is in vibration mode and is kept close to the body, the vibrations or radiations may affect the internal organs near to it.…
This article talks about how cell phones are not linked to cancer. According to Danish researchers, the biggest study ever consisting of 350,000 people found no evidence of any link. This concluded that people who have used a cell phone for a decade don’t have different cancer rates than those who have not. Last year, a different study found no connection between cell phones and cancer. But it showed a possible connection between heavy phone usage and glioma, a brain tumor that is rare but deadly. However, this information was not enough to support the case. That study of over 14,000 people in many countries, along with animal experiments, led to classifying electromagnetic energy from cell phones as possibly carcinogenic along with coffee and gasoline engine exhaust. But cell phones don’t issue the same radiation that is used in medical tests or found in radon soil so there might not be a risk. The Food and Drug Administration and the Federal Communications Commission have no evidence of cell phones being linked to cancer but people still have fears of getting it, although cancer rates have not risen since cell phones were introduced. Researchers have updated a recent study examining 358,403 cell phones users 30 years of age and older in Denmark from 1990 to 2007. They found that cell phone users did not have a higher risk of cancer than those without them. Cell phone users also aren’t more likely to develop a tumor in a part of the brain where phones are held against the head. About three-quarters of the world’s population use a cell phone. This makes it difficult for scientists to compare cancer rates between users and non-users. The advocacy group MobileWise said that the Danish study wasn’t enough to consider the long-term risk since brain tumors can take decades to develop. In about 30 other studies, those with brain tumors…
Over the past decade, the use of mobile phones has increased significantly. However, with every technological development comes some element of health concern, and cell phones are no exception. Recently, various studies have highlighted the negative effects of cell phone exposure on human health, and concerns about possible hazards related to cell phone exposure have been growing. This is a comprehensive, up-to-the-minute overview of the effects of cell phone exposure on human health. The types of cell phones and cell phone technologies currently used in the world are discussed in an attempt to improve the understanding of the technical aspects, including the effect of cell phone exposure on the…
Cell phones can be dangerous; using a cell phone while driving has been an issue of strong controversy for a long time now. As cell phones became more affordable, their use increased to a significant extent. People have gotten so infatuated with cell phones. It seems that talking and texting…
During normal use, over half of the radiation transmitted by your mobile phone is absorbed by your head or body. Around 80% of the phone's microwave emissions are absorbed by the head. Only shielding or distance to the phone can reduce their severe impact. The United Nations World Health Organization has classified mobile phone radiation as possibly cancer causing and advise that it is important for mobile phone users to minimize exposure by utilizing hands free devices or texting. Always use speakerphone or proven radiation safety accessories.…
With cell phones, what we cannot see is one of the concerns of health everyone should taken into account. To remain wireless and portable cell phones emit an invisible electromagnetic wave to stay in contact with the network provider. They are so powerful that too much exposure can damage brain cells and cause cancer. Yet, people had neglected this knowledge simply because the appearance of a cell phone does not underlies this potential health hazard. Ask yourself why every time people had to turn off their cell phones on a plane and you will see that the radiation is strong enough to distort the plane's communication system. How could it be harmless? Most texting requires the phone to be near the user and considering the time most people spent texting it is definitely not minimum exposure. The more shocking truth we must acknowledge is how young the cell phone users are getting. In this high-tech world people always wanted the latest and the best and kids are no exceptions. What would have been a great birthday present a few years ago would now be replaced by demands of mobiles and iPods. The younger you are the more easily damaged your brain is and hearing about toy-makers making cell phones targeted at the younger age group is suicidal. This really makes one think: Why is no one doing anything to prevent…
Millions of people own a mobile phone these days, and ever since they have been around scientists question the fact of they are safe or not. Do they cause tumors, earaches, mercury poisoning? All these health risks are mentioned in every article I found. But nowhere could I find anything that was sure if mobiles did cause all of the above. This is where science fails us. The problem is that mobile phones are still too new to know the long-term effects on human. Mobile phones give of a radiation of radio frequency round 10MHz to 300Ghz. But so do other appliances. Why does mobiles especially get put in the picture of being hazardous? Soon it will be clear whether the radio frequency emissions from mobiles cause health effect.…
Although you may not think using a mobile phone is harmful, it is a health hazard in many ways. Mobile phones can damage your key brain cells and could also lead to the Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers have found that radiation from mobile phones damages areas of the brain associated with learning, memory and movement of people who use phones for hours more than 50 per cent are more likely to develop mouth cancer than those who do not talk on them at all.…
On the other hand cell phones are very dangerous because you can lose concentration when picking your phone up off the floor or out of your purse or pocket. Also you need to look for on coming traffic while entering a freeway, but you will not be able to do that if you are in a deep conversation on your cell phone. However, children at school may need to contact their parent because they got a referral from the principle or the teacher. Also a child might need to go home because they feel sick or maybe carpool forgot you. To have a cell phone could be very important in an emergency.…
This is one that remains inconclusive and divisive. Researchers haven't found a definitive link between cancer and cell phones, yet there is a body of evidence linking the two. If you have a cell phone constantly glued to your ear, there is at least some reason to be worried about a tumor forming. Just use a headset to play it safe.…
With sixty percent of the world’s population using cell phones, recent concern has risen from the medical front concerning the harmful effects of cell phone use. All scientific research has concluded that mobile phones do produce RF energy and emit electromagnetic radiation. Studies have also concluded that high levels of RF energy can be harmful to human health. However, all scientific studies have not agreed if the levels of RF energy emitted from modern cell phones is harmful.…
The radiation you are exposed to is directly related to the time you spend talking on your phone. For linger calls it is safer and cheaper to call from a regular phone…
Mobile phones communicate with base stations using radiofrequency (RF) radiation. If RF radiation is high enough, it has a ‘thermal’ effect, which means it raises body temperature. There are concerns that the low levels of RF radiation emitted by mobile phones could cause health problems such as headaches or brain tumors. In addition, the devices those using RF radiations are safe. Such as: Radio had used RF radiation since 1893 and television had used RF radiation since 1939, and cell phone also uses RF radiation. So, cell phone absolutely safe.…
All in all, despite their weak points, mobile phones are making the life easier. I believe in future radition problem will be solved and mobiles phones will be exactly safe. And we have not to forget this: People make inventions good or…
