You Can't Hide From Electromagnetic Fields But You Can Protect Yourself!
Radiation is all around us. Some radiation in moderation is good for us such as heat and light from the sun. We could not exist without it. Cell phones are becoming very popular in daily lives and people should be concerned about the potential health effects from exposure to electromagnetic fields. Studies have shown that intense exposure to this type of non-ionizing radiation can cause heat-related effects such as cataracts, skin burns, deep burns, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke, as well as electrical shock.

Electromagnetic Fields
Electromagnetic Fields of all frequencies represent one of the most common and fastest growing environmental influences, about which anxiety and speculation are spreading. All populations are now exposed to varying degrees of EMF, and the levels will continue to increase as technology advances.

EMF - Electric & Magnetic Fields
NIOSH research on protecting workers from proven and possible EMF health risks focuses on:
- RF (radio frequencies): including broadcast antennas, induction heaters, and cell telephones
- ELF (extremely low frequencies): including AC electricity and video display terminals (VDTs)
- Static Magnetic Fields: including DC electricity

Cell Phone Radiation - How It Works
Just by their basic operation, cell phones have to emit a small amount of electromagnetic radiation.The concern is that cell phones are often placed close to or against the head during use, which puts the radiation in direct contact with the tissue in the head.

Cell Phone Radiation Levels
While research abounds and some tests have shown that cell phone radiofrequency (RF) could accelerate cancer in laboratory animals, the studies have not been replicated. Cell phones can affect internal pacemakers...

Understanding Radiation - EMF
Studies have shown that intense exposure to this type of nonionizing radiation can cause heat-related effects such as cataracts, skin burns, deep burns, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke, as well as electrical shock. As a result of the studies, the United States and other countries have established standards to protect workers and the public from the known effects of excess exposure to the radio waves used in telecommunications. The antennas of cell-phone base stations and personal cell phones must comply with these standards.
