How safe are mobile phones?

What the scientists think? Scientists know that some types of electromagnetic radiation are definitely harmful to our bodies Some people, including some people think radiation of the phone may harm our bodies.

Mobile phones and brain cancer Some surveys show very slight increase in brain cancer amongst people who use mobiles however. Not all surveys show this The number was very small.

Do mobiles cause cancer? Several surveys have been done, in Sweden and in the Usa as well as in the uk, to see if there is a link between mobile phone and brain cancer.

REMEMBER!!!!!! Cells in our bodies may be killed or made cancerous by gamma radiation, x-rays and ultra-violet radiation Cells can also be damaged by strong infra-red or microwaves radiation.
