7 Things You can Do to Reduce Cancer Risk Due to Cell Phone Use
5. Use headset and speaker phone
Always try to use the facilities like the headset and speaker phone whenever possible because this does not allow electromagnetic fields to come in close contact to your body, thereby limiting the harmful exposure. The Bluetooth device is, however, not recommended because it too works much the same way as cell phones and emits harmful electromagnetic waves.
6. Switch sides while speaking on the cell phone
While speaking on the cell phone switch sides (left to right ear) continuously so as to spread out the exposure to the electromagnetic field and limit its effects. Also, wait till the person on the other side has picked up the phone before putting your device on your ear.
7. Forbid children from using cell phones
The electromagnetic emissions of cell phones are extremely harmful for children because they have thinner skulls and their brains are still in the developing stage and therefore are more susceptible to damage caused by electromagnetic fields. Do not allow them to use cell phones, except in cases of emergencies. They may, however, send text messages and use the cell phone for other offline activities like listening to music and playing games.
