Direct the antenna Always pull out the antenna when you use the phone and direct it away from the head, not upright in parallel with the head. It may be a marginal difference, but it reduces the radiation into the head somewhat. Still more alarming scientific reports on dangerous radiation from mobile phones Every fourth Swede owns a mobile phone. Last year alone one million phones were sold. Aftonbladet today answers the most common questions.
Nobody knows for sure.
The antenna radiates microwaves. The same type of radiation as in a microwave oven, although in much smaller doses. Like the microwave oven heats food, the microwaves of the phone heat human cells. Science does not know exactly what happens with human cells which are exposed to microwaves. This is a plausible coupling to how tumors are initiated.
