Mobile Phones cause cancer, well this is not a new information, though there has never been enough evidence on this. A study by the Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel has shown that even low levels of radiation from handsets are harmfu adn encourages the growth of tumors. Thus scientist say that even 10 minute talk on the mobile phone, it increases the rick of cancer.
Up till now researchers were unable to find out any evidence that signals from mobile phones are harmful but scientist suspected that there may be. This study undertaken at Weizmann institute shows that nontherma radiation increases the risk of cancer.
In this study Prof Rony Segar from this institute exposed the rat adn human cells to electromagnetic radiation that is similar to that emitted by cell phones, but at one tenth of the power. Even five minutes of exposure led to cell division and growth.
Prof Segar said "The rea significance of our findings is that cells are not inert to non-therma mobile phones radiation. We used radiation power eves that were around one tenth of those produced by a normal levels that were around one tenth of those produced by a normal mobile. The changes we observed were clearly not caused by heating".
The study concludes that, non necessariy all the mobile phones users wil be affected by cancer. But the extensive use of the mobile phone increases the risk of getting affected, keeping this in mind, mobile phone users shoule be careful and should spread the word of awareness regarding the issue.
