According to two studies, one by the Interphone Study Group and the other by the International Agency for Research on Cancer, radiation emitted by cell phones has a possible chance of causing brain tumors such as glioma and meningioma. There is some correlation between time spent on the phone and the chance of having a brain tumor; however both of these studies resulted in them saying more research was necessary and no conclusion could be made. While more evidence may be needed to conclude that cell phone radiation causes cancer, I am sure emitting radiation, even if it is a small amount each day, cannot have a positive effect on your head. So while there is no proof that cell phones will kill you down the road, I am advising you to be careful of the possible risks and take precautions against it. Try using headphones or a wireless bluetooth set so less radiation reaches your skull. Furthermore, cnet, a popular and reputable technology site created a list of the least emitting radiation cell phones for each cell phone company. Next time you buy a new phone, check how much radiation it is emitting. You may just be saving your life.
