Cell Phones Increase the Risk of Two Types of Brain Tumor According to Study

Using mobile phones for more than 10 years gives a consistent pattern of increased risk for at least two different types of brain tumors. This was the conclusion of a summary that reviewed sixteen other research studies from seven countries – USA, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, United Kingdom, Germany, and Japan.(1)

Cell Phones Are Like Radios

Cell phones are more like radios than traditional telephones in your home. They emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels of RF when in the stand-by mode. Using a cell phone can place the radiation antenna close to the user’s brain and this can lead to the absorption of comparatively large amounts of electroma...

I'm glad you brought that up. While most people now realize that smoking is hazardous to your health, how many of those people realize the dangers of their wireless phone?

Wireless phones and the wireless industry are strikingly similar to tobacco and the tobacco industry in methodologies.

Both industries have adamantly claimed no adverse health effects despite contrary evidence.

Additionally, I believe the wireless industry has waged a Tobacco Industry like campaign of disinformation in an attempt to diminish the merits of such research. They cherry pick researchers and drop funding for research that yields undesirable results.

In closing, I'll leave you with the words of Dr. Henry Lai, who in 1995 along with Dr. Singh, found d...

Bluetooth doesn't give as much radiation because the power output is lower.

I agree, you're pretty ****ed though.

Just get one of those RF sheild stickers to put over the earpiece. That way you are fully protected. 👀

If your lucky you can get a good deal and get one of those singal boosters for free. 😁

You are sorry.

If you had simply read the information presented you should have been easily able to discern the source of this information.
However, seeing as how that apparently was/is too difficult, I shall clearly spell it out for you.

The article clearly states:


Researchers at the Department of Oncology, University Hospital in Sweden reviewed sixteen published studies that looked at cell phone use and the rate of brain cancers.


and at the end of the article they include their reference:...

I'm starting to think that plooky types out his posts while wearing a tin foil hat.

A lot of his posts are very interesting, and spark up a good debate BUT... I think he's a little too into conspiracies for me! 😁

🤣

I can appreciate that criticism as I often share it with myself.

Rest assured, I do not wear a tin foil hat because I have read studies that show that they actually increase the number of and strength of transmissions from government satellites.

I'll leave you with a quote from the movie "Usual Suspects".

This is from your article: "More research is necessary for risk assessment based on higher number of long-term users."

This means that youre freaking out based on preliminary findings from, based on your citations, 3 centers in ontario in a study that is nowhere near being complete.
