..for ‘Cell’...a cancer cell!
As far as the accounts of history go, I don’t think that man has ever been more conscious about his health than he is today. This is to the extent, that if breathing wasn’t ‘it’, by now books like ‘10 ways to keep away from breathing on highways’ would have hit the bookstores.
So, for a change, there is another habit (not reflexive like breathing) that has hooked human beings of all shapes, sizes and attitudes – much more dangerous and addictive than the banal smoking – talking on mobile phones. Well, not that we weren’t aware that it could be harmful for the ears etc., but that it can cause malignant tumours in the brain in much lesser time than you could have imagined is but horrifying.
The results of a 14-month investigation by the Canberra-based top Neurosurgeon, Vini G Khurana, has got the world to rethink its way of living. In his report, he gives enough evidences to warn the governments, telecom industry and the users about the deadly effects of simultaneous electro-magnetic exposure caused by the radiations released from radio and TV towers, cordless phone base stations, wireless etc. The report clearly establishes link between long-term usage of mobile phones and some malignant forms of tumours in the brain. Unfortunately, this ‘long-term’ isn’t that long! Ten years is the time-period within which the cancerous growth may show up, making it an even bigger threat than smoking and asbestos, where the effects show up after a certain age.
Professor Challis, an experts on mobile phone radiation has enlightened the media by revealing that about 40% of the radio energy of the mobile or wireless phone is absorbed into one’s head. The exposure caused by mobile phone is 200 times more than sending an email using wi-fi technology. “The risk is even larger in children than in adults since their brain is still growing and the skull is thin. In fact, anybody using mobile phone for two hours everyday for a year is quite prone to catching an ailment in the next five to seven years,” tells Dr. Pankaj Kumar Jha, a practicing Neurosurgeon.
