Today’s Scientific American questions whether cancer fears from cell phone use, are fact of fiction? Listen to Dr. Olsen’s findings on prenatal concerns here. What do you think?Scientists remain undecided about safety guarantees from mobiles, which is why they advise using an ear piece and speakerphone.According to researcher Jorn Olsen at UCLA cell phones do not send enough radiation to alter or damage DNA, and for this reason do not tend to lead toward cancer.Not surprisingly, long-term cell phone use seems to create greater problems, while short term exposure appears to hold less danger, according to most recent studies out there. UK researcher, Laurie Challis pointed out that of t! he 29,000 men and 38,000 women yearly who develop brain cancer people in industrial nations are twice as likely to develop brain cancer as those in developing countries. The jury is still out on why this is so.Studies are currently being carried out in several countries on this topic, and yet research so far still shows conflicting conclusions. To complicate the findings further, plenty of anecdotal stories seem support both sides of the debate.However since scientists cannot rule out harmful risks, some people are playing it safe to avoid increasing brain cancer risks....Show more

Gabriel Realmuto: nicely distinctive cellular telephone! have distinctive sar ratting sar advise particular absorption fee. it rather is a measurement of ways lots electromagnetic radiation is absorbed via physique tissue at an identical time as making use of a cellular telephone. the better the SAR the greater radiation is absorbed. they have faith that the intense point of radiation get into the physique and would reason maximum cancers. in spite of the undeniable fact that i've got faith it is in severe circumstances that this happens and have faith or no longer this cant transmit your physique once you sending an sms or tacking a image in basic terms happen while your talking on the telephone. i does not hardship too lots...Show more
