Harmful Effects of Mobile Emissions

1. Harmful Effects of Mobile Emissions The ill effects of mobile emission were put into evidence in the year 1927 when Hermann Joseph Muller found out the correlation between radiation and cancer risk. True to date, there was a list of researches and clinical tests run that confirmed impact of EM radiation on human health. The emissions are caused when mobile phones operate by communicating with base stations through using radiofrequency (RF) radiation. In case the RF radiation is high, it produces a ‘thermal’ effect that indicates a high body temperature. Also as per studies and evidences, low levels of RF radiation emitted by mobile phones seem to result in headaches or brain tumours. The amount of RF radiation emitted from the mobiles which a human is exposed to is 100 to 1,000 times more intense that one receives from the base stations. What are the common side effects of mobile emissions? Mobile phone base stations continuously emit RF radiations. Every mobile phone emitting a certain level of RF radiation which depends on several things such as hours for which the mobile phones are being used, its proximity with the body and a user’s nearness to the base station. In case the base station is far and weak, mobile releases more emissions to compensate. Owing to prolonged use of mobile use, some of the common side effects of radiation exposure are enlisted below: Headaches: Users who are glued to mobiles for long hours report constant headache which often escalates to irritation, reduced productivity, migraines, etc. Increase stress & fatigue levels: Adults are experiencing higher stress nowadays and this can also lead to increase cholesterol, blood sugar and risk of cardiovascular. Lack of sleep: Consistent use of mobile phones over a period of time results in anxiety disorder and also affects the quality of sleep. This can also turn worse by triggering mania and bipolar depression. Weak immunity: Continuous exposure to radiation weakens the immune system which makes our bodies more prone to fall sick, slow healing etc. Infertility: This ill effect is as prevalent in men as in women. High radiation prepones the menopause or destroy eggs in a woman’s ovaries. It is also proven to affect the sperm quality in men. Memoryloss: Maybe not permanent, but a high tech-enabled lifestyle and constant interaction with radiation sources and mobile phone emission causes confusion or decreased alertness. This in turn affects the memory at many levels. While it is not possible to disconnect a tech-enabled lifestyle or have a gadget-free life, there are many anti-radiation solutions that can promote a healthy lifestyle. While curbing the urge to be on phones can
