Cell Phone Radiation

With the convenience and entertainment of our modern gadgets -- cell phones, computers, TVs, microwaves, and other electronics -- we sometimes receive more than we bargain for.  It is true that radiation can be a natural phenomena, such as radiation from the sun or the earth.  However, with our cell phone obsession, we are increasing our chronic exposure to low doses of radiation.  Children and young adults are more susceptible to damage from cell phone radiation due to their small skulls and developing brains.  The World Health Organization now recognizes cell phone radiation to be just as carcinogenic as lead, engine exhaust, and chloroform.  To reduce cell phone radiation exposure, keep the phone at least an inch away from the body, place the phone on speaker, use an earpiece, and decrease time spent on the phone in general.
