Are you sure you want a new mobile phone?

Mobile phone radiation could be highly hazardous for our health. Studies have shown that not mobile phones, but also any kind of electrical appliance such as microwaves, dishwasher, alarm clocks, etc. are usually emitting electromagnetic radiation (EMR) . The problem is that people hold mobile phones near their ears, carry them near their bodies, and use them many hours each day. Moreover, diseases such as brain dysfunction, brain tumours, and even sleeping problems have been linked to EMR . Nevertheless, this issue comes from the very first beginning of mobile phone industry. The thing is that companies were focused on the profits that they could get rather than anything else. So, they pushed regulatory agencies to allow mobile phone to enter in the market without testing them. 

Nowadays, millions of people are exposed to the danger of electromagnetic radiation, and it is said that regulatory authorities refuse to admit how unsafe using this devices is. 


In my opinion, it is hard to stop depending on mobile phones once you have already gotten used to it. However, if authorities in the field were clearer about the risk attached to them, it could be much easier to leave them aside. Would you continue using your mobile phone if you knew that the damage is confirmed? What could you do to protect your health from EMR?



I suggest watching this video... Then you can draw your own conclusions.

A technological disease

A technological disease.

I remember my father having a huge mobile phone with no great applications at all, some years ago. At that time, that device was as technologic as expensive. However, thing have happened to change for cell phones have become a global need. There is a low percentage of people who assume they can live without one.

Nowadays, cell phones are sold everywhere. Yet, this is not only about where you can find them, it also has to do with the possibilities to buy them. Stores offer a series of “facilities” in which you can pay monthly in order to decrease the amount of money that you will spend on the electronic device (this basically means going into debt).

But, why is it that having a mobile phone has become a need? This new marvelous devices have come to break the brick-phone down. Old cell phones had a weight problem, they ran out of battery very fast, they were made for making and receiving calls; not a great wonder whatsoever. On the other hand, the new ones are small gadgets with a lot of apps, almost a little computer that you can carry on the palm of your hands.
When it is all said, the decision is personal: is going into debt worthy? Are you capable to live without your mobile phone?
