Cell Phones and Your Kids… 50 Percent Increase in Frontal and Temporal Lobe Tumors

The Office of National Statistics in the United Kingdom
discovered a 50 percent increase in frontal and temporal lobe tumors in
children during the ten year span covering 1999 to 2009. Was this a
result of cell phone radiation?

The Department of Health in the UK would appear to think so. One in
three children under the age of ten currently has a cellphone in their
possession!
The governmental agency put out the following statement:
“Children should only use mobile phones for essential purposes and keep
all calls short.”

The facts: while adults definitely absorb some radiation from using
cellphones, children are at considerably greater risk. When compared to
adults, children’s brains can take in up to three times the amount of
radiation.

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) released their
findings last year after going over huge amounts of data taken from
dozens of studies: cellphones may cause cancer in humans.

These findings
were compiled from research that discovered using a cellphone for a
decade increases the risk of developing acoustic neuromas in adults. It
can be inferred from these findings the distinct possibility that
similar, if not more devastating results, can occur in children due to:

• Brain tissue which is more conductive.

• A thinner skull.

• The ability for radiation to penetrate more effectively due to their smaller brains and softer brain tissue.

• A longer period of exposure due to use beginning at an earlier age.

Could this be why almost 400 children a year in Britain are diagnosed
with brain and spinal tumors? This equates to 1 in four of all
registered childhood cancers.

Cellphones and Big Business

MobileWise, a non-profit organization from the UK whose mission is to
inform the public about the potential risks to children from engaging
in cell phone use, released a report in 2011 in which researchers
expressed concerns.

Why have cell phones been deemed safe when more than
200 peer-reviewed studies convey an association between cellphone usage
and serious health complications, including brain damage?

Dr. Russell Blaylock, neurosurgeon and editor of The Blaylock
Wellness Report, may have the answer. Blaylock shares, “There is
considerable evidence that cellphones damage the brain as well as other
tissues and organs.

In fact, two of the scientists cellphone companies
backed to do these studies were fired when their studies demonstrated
DNA damage in all cells exposed to the wavelengths and energy from
cellphones.”

Half the studies on cellphone use and cancer report a link and half
do not, leaving researchers conflicted. It’s important to note;
approximately three quarters of the studies conducted on whether cell
phones are linked to the development of cancer are backed and funded by
the cellphone industry.

MobileWise suggests helping children and parents minimize cell phone
use by forcing the industry to step up. The organization’s
recommendations call for the industry to put out more user-friendly
warning labels, implement the use of functions that place time
restrictions on calls, and halt the aggressive marketing tactics aimed
at children.

How many more young lives will be destroyed before governments have
the courage to do their job and protect public health? The
telecommunications industry should not be able to manipulate the facts
and practical everyday guidelines to help prevent and/or minimize
possibly deadly exposures for children need to be made conspicuously
available to the public.
