10 Reasons Cell Phones Might Not Be Safe

 

If you are like most people, you likely don’t let your cell phone get too far away from you, and it is probably always within reach. The question here is, of course, is are these phones really safe? There are billions of people who use cell phones, and right now, both scientists and governments around the world are trying to get the answer to this question through research and testing. Their results? At this point, these studies show that it might be a good idea to limit exposure to the radiation

that comes from these phones. In other words, it’s better to be safe, rather than sorry.

 

If you have a cell phone, you can cut down on the possible radiation exposure by only using your phone when you have a strong signal. You can also reduce the radiation by keeping some distance between your ear and the phone.

 

Cell phones work by changing the sound that comes from your throat into a radio wave. These waves are then sent out through the antenna of the phone. The antenna is also used to receive the radio waves from other sources, i.e. the phone of the person you are speaking to. It changes the radio waves to sound wave, and then pump them through the speaker.

 

The problem is that these waves are a type of radiation, which can possibly be absorbed into your head as you speak. Obviously, radiation going into your head can be problematic, and it can be a big safety issue. This is not the only safety issue associated with cell phone use, and here are the top 10 reasons cell phones might not be safe:
