Why You Shouldn’t Panic That Cell Phones May Cause Cancers:


Recently, a government study has discovered that cell phones may be connected with cancer, but here’s why you shouldn’t sweat over it.

The US National Toxicology Program, or the NTP, experimented with male rats. They used these rats by using full body doses of radiation for about 9 hours each day. The rats that were used with radiation had some health effects such as, heart and brain cancers with tumors, than the other rats, that were not given this daily dose.

Why you should worry? Humans aren't rats, so the two will have different reactions. Even on every organism, they'll have completely different reactions. Also, the radiation levels the rats were exposed to were much higher than the radiation levels humans are exposed to by cell phones.

Overall, cell phones don’t have that much radiation to cause cancer, and even if they did, studies have shown that humans have took no effect to it. Plus, animals will react differently than humans.
