Mobile Phones Risks




You probably own a phone and use it every day and are using it right now to read this, but... do you realize the risk?

Are the mobile phones and wireless sign a risk for children and teenagers?  

Yes, according to Independent .co.uk. they posted an article that says "Children and teenagers are five times more likely to get brain cancer if they use mobile phones..." as their brains haven´t developed completely and the radiation from their mobiles penetrates deeper into their brains, creating a risk of brain cancer. Professor Lennart Hardell of the University Hospital said people who start to use phones  before 20 had more than five-fold increase in glioma

" In 2000 and 2005, two official inquiries under Sir William Stewart, a former government chief scientist, recommended the use of mobile phones by children should be "discouraged" and "minimised". But almost nothing has been done..."
Millenials have been using phones for way longer than what is healthier and this will be very hard to stop but at least we can change our daily use of phones by not calling somebody but texting, this way we would have the phones further away from us, minimizing the radiation penetration.

Experts say today's young people may suffer an "epidemic" of brain cancer in later life. Those who start using mobile phones at a younger age could have brain tumours. And... at what age did you start using phones?














Now that you have read this, turn your phone off and go do something outside far far away from your phone.
