Cellphone Radiation – Take Care

Cell phones or commonly known as mobile phones have been a necessary part of our modern day lifestyle. Whether it is for work and mails or just music and entertainment, the use of mobile phones has amplified significantly over these years.
There are around 800 million mobile phone users in our nation and we are the second leading country in terms of amount of mobile phone connections according to industry reports. And we are quoted as the most rising telecommunication industry in the world and will have more mobile phone users by the end of this year.
According to the research directed by World Health Organization (WHO) – excessive usage of mobile phones may lead to cancer.  Just by their simple task, mobile phones have to radiate a small quantity of electromagnetic emission. The fear is that mobile phones are often placed close to head and heart, which puts radiation in direct contact with the vital organs. The main harm is the radiation that is caused by the mobile phones when we are on call or just using the basic functions on our mobile phone.
Here are some of the ideas which will help you to decrease the adverse effects of mobile phone radiations -

  • Limit the usage of your calls – Even though you may have important work over the call, try and reduce the duration of the call. Long telephonic sessions may prove to be hazardous to your health.
  • Avoid keeping phones in your shirt pocket – The electromagnetic radiations may directly affect the tissues near the heart. It is advisable to keep your phone in your trouser pocket
  • Do not use mobile phones in elevators – Stop the use of mobile phones in elevators as the closed metal space as they use more power to establish connection. The metallic walls also act as a cage that traps the radioactivity and redirects it back onto the occupants.
  • Do not make a call when signal strength is low – When the signal is low, the mobile phone will emit more energy as it will try to launch the connection.
The government is surely taking necessary steps to evaluate, re-visit radioactivity strategies for mobile towers and approve plans for radiation emission by mobile phones. But we also have to take proper actions to reduce the effect of radiation on our body. 

So be safe – and JiyoLife!
