Four Ways to Reduce Cellphone Radiation Cellphone radiation is said to have an impact on health

Discussions about the dangers of cellphone radiation have long been carried out. Because, as we know cellphones emit radio frequencies and radio waves (radio frequency - RF). So, the emission is very likely to cause health problems.

RF waves can cause brain cancer, headaches, reduced memory, and lack of sleep. This is as stated by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) in the United States.

This health disorder will have a worse impact on children. Because exposure to energy from RF waves in the brains of children can have a greater impact than adults.

Because, children are still in their infancy, making it possible to have a long-term impact.

Besides, if children have used cellphones, it means that cellphone signal radiation is more frequent than those who have just used cellphones when they are adults.

For that, it's good that users keep a distance with their cellphones. The California Health Service also suggests the following five things.

1. Keep the distance when the phone is 'working hard'

The cellphone also needs to be kept away when the cellphone is working hard to connect with the BTS.

For example when streaming video, video call, or voice call using an instant messaging application. When on the phone, users can use a headset or speakerphone.

Also keep away from the body when the cellphone signal looks weak, for example only one or two bars. Likewise when you're in a fast moving vehicle.

Because cellphones are working hard to maintain the stability of device connections with BTS with each other as the user moves.

2. Don't be bound

A good cellphone is placed in a bag when not in use. Don't put it in a bag. Also, keep it away from your head while sleeping.

3. Remove the headset

It is recommended that the user remove the headset when not on the phone. Because, the headset also releases a little RF energy, even when the phone is not being used.

4. Don't trust radiation-reducing products

According to the US Trade Commission (FTC), products that block cell phone signals make cellphone signals work harder and emit more RF energy.

However, this mobile technology is still growing, as stated by Digital Trends. It is not impossible this radiation can be reduced in the future. (ex / ex)
