3. Studies have indicated that cell phone use could alter brain
activity due to the emission of electromagnetic radiation.
Today's cell and smartphones emit more radiation than ever
before as they transmit complex data.
It's recommended that we keep cell phones at a distance by
putting them on speaker mode or using a wired headset
whenever possible. The next-best option is a wireless
Bluetooth headset or earpiece, which emits radiation but at a
far lower level. Just holding your phone slightly away from your
ear can make a big difference; the intensity of radiation
diminishes sharply with distance.
4. This is why I think texting is better than talking on a phone, because
you have to hold the phone completely away from your brain. Keep in
mind that cell phones emit the most radiation when they initially
establish contact with the cell towers. To reduce exposure, wait a few
seconds until after your call has been connected to put it next to your
ear. Also, your cell emits less radiation when you are standing still.
When you're moving, your signal moves with you from tower to tower
and must generate little bursts of radiation to make each digital
connection.
