It's Just a Little Phone, How Bad Can it be?
Cell Phone Radiation
 Many studies have investigated possible health symptoms of
mobile phone radiation
 There was a talk that cell phone use contributes to brain
tumors and cancer
 Cellphone health effects was still uncertain
until the situation is further CLARIFIED.”
But on some DAY … the situation was
CLARIFIED
WHO: Cell phone use can increase
possible cancer risk
May 31, 2011
CNN) -- Radiation from cell phones can possibly cause cancer, according
to the World Health Organization. The agency now lists mobile phone
use in the same "carcinogenic hazard" category as
lead, engine exhaust and chloroform.
The decision was made after reviewing studies on cell phone safety.
There is enough evidence to categorize personal exposure as "possibly
carcinogenic to humans.“
carcinogenic :is an agent directly involved in causing cancer
"
Dangers involved in cell phones
 Cell phone radiation penetrates the skull
 It makes the body vulnerable to DNA
breakage, Genetic Damage, and cancer
 It reduces the life span.
Is the Cell Phone Cooking the Brain?
 long-term exposure to radiation from your cell
phone COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE CANCER !
 The type of radiation coming out of a cell phone is
called non-ionizing. It is not like an X-ray, but
more like a very low-powered microwave oven.
 What microwave radiation does in most simplistic
terms is similar to what happens to food in
microwaves, essentially cooking the brain,“.
 Tissues nearest to where the phone is held can
absorb this energy
When you think of a cell phone
you imagine this:
But unfortunately, the reality is
something closer to this:
Why the risk is higher for kids?
1. Kids bones are much softer, since they are
still developing
2. Their brains contain more fluid, which
allows deeper penetration.
3. The protective systems that allow for
adaptation for environmental aggressions
are not yet fully developed in your children.
These protective systems develop and grow
until your kid is in his early 20s
Scientific Findings
Higher Cancer Risks for Kids
Once it penetrates your kids' heads, it enters
their brain and eyes at an absorption rate far
greater than it does in adults.
What does it mean for your kids? It means
that their risks for cancer are far greater.
And the possibilities of dying too soon are
much higher
Many countries have taken steps to ensure children are using cell phones
safely:

 Cell phone safety is important for everyone.
 It’s especially important to focus on cell phone safety
for kids.
