Rats exposed to cell phones were found to get cancer. The study examined the rats over the course of two years, giving them 18 hours of exposure per day to the phone. It was turned on for 10 minutes and then off for 10. The finds found that they developed a rare heart cancer. While this may not seem concerning, think about how much you use your phone per day and how much microwave exposure you may be getting, even as it sits in your pocket.
Key Takeaways:
- Phones are known to put out a high amount of microwave radiation from them
- The cancer developed by rats is rare in humans and often is benign.
- While rare constant contact is easy as we think about our phone being on all day and with us
“Researchers at the National Toxicology Program exposed rats and mice to high levels of cell phone radio frequency radiation over the course of two years for 18 hours each day, alternating 10-minute exposures with 10-minute periods without exposures, and found that the radiation (known as RFR) caused rare heart schwannoma tumors, in the male rats.”
