2 days agoThere are definite “ ”-related telephone radiation links to rodents
Periskopi(8 years ago)
(8 years ago)Since our phones (and many of our electronic devices) give radiation, many people ask if our phones emit sufficient radiation that could potentially be dangerous to our health. Now, according to a new study by the U.S. National Toxicology Programme, it seems there are “clear scores” [...]
However, before you worry, you should point out that this “clear evidence” of health risks has been proven in mice, not people.
Researchers actually published a draft of their report at the beginning of this year, where they said they found “some evidence”, but after examining colleagues, it was changed to “clear evidence” to high levels of radio frequency used in mobile phones and tumor development in rats.
According to John Boucher, a senior scientist in the toxicology program, “change from some evidence to clear evidence reflects the increased belief that cancer observed in men's mice was accompanied by exposure to radio frequencies. NTP considers the category a positive cancer find. ”
However, not all seem to agree with these findings. Jeffrey Shuren, director of the FDA Equipment and Radiological Health Centre, said: “We disagree with the conclusions of their final report concerning the clear evidence of cancerous activity in the rodent “.
“The study was not designed to test the safety of using the wise telephone in people, so we cannot draw conclusions about the dangers of using it. ” added Shuren.
