Calling for Trouble - Effects of cell phone usage on Health

Cell phone affects the human brain and eyes the most. Mobile phone radiation is rather easily absorbed by eye and brain tissues. However, eyes are exposed to greater risk, as they aren't easily protected by the skull. Certain cells present in eyes are very susceptible to cell phone radiation- thus adding to a risk of cancer.

Something that you may casually overlook or may not pay much heed to is the germs that are loading up on your device after daily usage. The greasy residue which may form on your phone screens after a day's use harbors the same type of germs that one may find on a toilet seat. This can adversely affect your immune system and lead to several immunological disorders.

Constant calls, alerts, and vibrations in the phone can exponentially raise your stress levels and result in a large number of disorders, which include, but are not restricted to, sleep disturbances and symptoms of depression. They are especially detrimental to the health of adolescents and expose them to a high amount of risk.

Excessive use of cell phones increases the probability of brain cancer exponentially. This is because mobile phones emit various frequencies of ionizing electromagnetic radiation that is generally known to increase the risk of cancer. The human body absorbs this radiation rather easily, thus augmenting tumor formation and subsequent brain cancer.
