In 2011, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, a committee of 27 scientists from 14 different countries working on behalf of the World Health Organization (WHO), concluded that exposure to cell phone radiation is a "possible carcinogen" and classified it into the 2B category, which is the same category as the pesticide DDT, lead, gasoline engine exhaust, burning coal and dry cleaning chemicals.
The children’s health expert panel explained that, as of 2013, there are nine types of cancer linked to cell phone use, including:
1. Glioma (brain cancer)

For most of us, cell phones are part of our daily lives, but at what cost? There is a huge amount of controversy about cell phone use and cancer. In my opinion, the prudent thing to do is to try to reduce your radiation exposure.
There are a number of strategies in order to reduce exposure to cell phone electromagnetic radiation:
1. Reduce your cell phone use
2. Use a speaker phone
3. Use a headset. The lowest radiation exposure that I have found is the blue tube headsets.
4. Use low radiation cell phones with a minimum SAR rating. For SAR ratings of cell phones, use his link:

5. Use EMF reducing devices. There are many on the market. Try to find ones that are FDA cleared for reducing radiation.
