The scientists were right — your cell phone can give you cancer.

There have long been whispers of a cancer connection from your cell — and a new study backs up the claims.

"These data are a clear sign of the real risks this kind of radiation poses for human health," study author Igor Yakymenko said.

Yakymenko’s meta-study — basically a study of hundreds of other studies — reveals many findings of previous researchers into how radiofrequency from your phone can damage DNA.

That damage can add up over time and cause a variety of health problems, like cancer, headaches, fatigue and even skin problems.

For example, using your phone for just 20 minutes a day for five years increased the risk of one type of brain tumor threefold, and using the phone an hour a day for four years upped the risk of some tumors three to five times, Yakymenko said.

She actually said, “We’re all gonna die from something, I suppose...” !!

She wasn’t sure about it! LOL

"Cellphone radiation can cause cancer"

They use to claim CRTs cause cataracts. Whatever became of that asked the blind person.

"Safe from cell phones, maybe, but if you live long enough, you’re bound to die of something."

Nobody gets out alive, except for one to tell the tale.

Did anyone start a list?
Maybe with the Asbestos Giant from some state fair...
