Cell phones don't raise cancer risk

It has been a long time belief that using your cellular phone would cause cancer. Well, just like the myth about your cellphone causing the filling station to blow up while you are pumping gas, this silly myth has been debunked. And they used the entire population of Denmark to do it.
Researchers collected data on 420,095 Danish cell phone users. Some of those users were tracked since they started using cell phones in 1982… two decades worth of data. Data collection ended in 2002 and the results are in…
"We were not able to identify any increased risks of any cancers that could be related to the use of the cellular phones," John Boice, a cancer epidemiologist at Vanderbilt University who worked on the research.
Out of the over 400,000 people tracked, only 14,249 were cancer patients. That number is much lower than what one could expect for that number under normal circumstances.
The popular idea is that cell phones emit some sort of radiation that causes the cancer. According to Dr. Boice, the radiation attributed to cellular phones cannot damage a person’s DNA or cell structure… “there's no biological mechanism that would suggest that even this type of exposure could cause cancer or DNA damage," Boice said.
So the long and short of it is that cell phones simply don’t cause cancer.
Boice did point out that there is a great danger with the use of cell phones. "There is, in fact, a hazard from the use of a cellular phone that we have to all be concerned about," added Boice, but it is not cancer-related.”
The great threat that we need to worry about is not cancer. According to Dr. Boice that danger is, " using a phone when we're driving an automobile".
That my friends is a completely different story.
