Did you know that your cell phone can cause brain tumor? 

Cell-phone industry is on cloud nine with companies launching new products each day. Each passing moment is being spent on research and development to create smartphones with more user-friendly feature. Big amount of money is being spent on advertisements and the buzzing news across all ages is what’s the latest from Nokia or is iPhone better than Blackberry? 

But the underlying question is-Are we aware that this cell phone can create havoc health hazards? 

When we communicate through our mobile phones or use them to download music or while time by seeing a movie or even use it to shop around, we are in a constant process being exposed to electromagnetic radiation. A group of researchers who have teamed up with Radiation Research Trust in UK, organizations such as Powerwatch and EMR Policy Institute, US, have pointed out the glaring fact that the over the years cell phone industry has not given much attention to the threats of radiation. 

Are we not the guinea pigs who are being the subject of experiment to gauge the effects of exposure to cellphone radiation? 

Public is not informed that exposure to electromagnetic radiation from cellphone lead to increased risk of: 

• Brain tumors
• Eye Cancer
• Salivary gland tumors
• Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma
• Leukemia
• Testicular cancer  

It has been also reported that children are more prone to brain tumor than adults, while the telecom industry undermines this glaring reality. 

The arguing facts that make headlines is cell phone has ushered a whole new era of communication and its advantages always outweigh the ill effects. There exist opiniated views that argue cellphones kept closer to ears might be the leading cause of these problems, so the companies have launched hands-free mobile devices. Last but not the least, today’s people strives for a smarter life besieged with harmful gadgets than leading a complete healthy life. 

But still I would request one and all to lessen the use of mobile phones and to keep in mind this truth while using them. 

Arguable points are always welcome!   Also check if you are suffering from ‘NOMOPHOBIA”
