Health Hazards From Use Of Cell Phones By Children

Everyday we are swimming in a sea of electromagnetic radiation produced by electrical appliances power lines, wiring in buildings, and a slew of other technologies that are part of modern life. From the dishwasher and microwave oven in the kitchen and the clock radio next to your bed, to the cellular phone you hold to your ear- sometimes for hours each day- exposure to EMR is growing and becoming a serious health threat.

But there is a huge public health crisis looming from one particular threat: EMR from cellular phones- both the radiation from the handsets and from the tower- based antennas carrying the signals- which studies have linked to development of brain tumours- funded cell phone industry media machine continue to mislead the unwary public about the dangers of a product by billions of people.

Researchers have speculated for more than 10 years that electromagnetic radiation emitted from cell phones may damage DNA and cause benign brain tumour along a nerve on the side of the head where they hold the phone.

When you use a cell phone, 70 to 80 percent of the energy emitted from the antennas is absorbed by the head.
