Cellphones basically communicates using microwaves ,recent studies have shown that excessive use of mobile phones(Talking on cellphone) cause brain tumor and other diseases due to microwave exposure. After you had a long talk on cellphone you might have notice that the cellphone has heated up and even you feel slight head ache this is due to microwave radiation. Current phones are designed to emit less radiation but still it has some effects. Hence it recommended to use hands-free (earphones) which you receive with your mobile phone.

Let's find out! I'll put my head in my microwave. I don't know about the unhealthiness of cell phones I do know that research has shown that cell phone towers cause cancer in people. But then again nowadays everything you do seems to cause cancer.

As far as i can see there is no short term effect of cell phones on human beings. Everything is long term, cellphones have long term effect on human beings... we will get to know of all this by the time we reach 40 and we would end up banning our children from using cell phones :P

I have never heard of getting diseases by using the cell phone. I would think that if there lots of medical problems while using them, they would certainly make sure it didn't happen, by maybe not making them so they will cause problems. I don't talk all the much on mine, so I think I am safe as far as that goes. A person would have to talk for hours on thier phone for it to cause any problems that might harm us. I don't have any other phone, so I do need my cell phone, but also I am careful that I don't sleep with it either, as that could be very harmful, by putting it under the pillow. I don't have my cell phone all that close to me at all. I think a lot of it has been blown out of proportion as far as the radiation is concerned. I am not saying there isn't any readiation, but maybe not as much as we would think. Take care, and have a very good day.
