IN A MICROWAVE OVEN?

EXPERT DISCUSSES CONTROVERSY

OVER CELL PHONE SAFETY.

Today there are an estimated 3 billion cell phones in the world. In Europe 80% of the population uses them, compared to 60% in the US. The US. Market is growing quickly especially among teens and children who are at the greatest risk. . All this points to one fact: cell phones are BIG business. Even though the health risks from radiation are being reported and the evidence is mounting, the industry giants continue to claim their products are safe.

Shelly Kalnitsky, an authority on cell phone issues wants to ask you three questions.

1. Do you now believe nicotine is non-addictive?

2. Do you now believe that cigarette smoking does not cause lung cancer?

3. Do the words “radiation” and “microwaves” sound like something you want going into your brain?

“The jury is still out on the extent of the long term effects of cell phones” says Kalnitsky “but we are discovering more evidence of cell phone dangers.” He points to an independent reporting site www.cprnews.com which documents hundreds of articles , studies and research on cell phone dangers under world news.

He discusses :

• How the industry suppresses negative stories.

• The increased risks cell phones pose to teens and children.

• Why current hands free kits are more dangerous.

• New products that can reduce the risk.

• Safety tips in cell phone usage.

Kalnitsky is an expert on the subject and can add insight on recent scientific findings as well as discuss protection devices such as shields, new hands free radiation free kits and safety tips that can offer a remedy for cell phone users.
