CLAIM ID

66d2831c

Radiofrequency exposure levels from current technologies result in a negligible temperature rise in the human body.

The studies published by the World Health Organisation and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) confirm the claim.

The studies published by the World Health Organisation and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) confirm the claim. National Institutes of Health reported that the distance of brain tissue to the cell phone have inverse relations with the increasing rate of tissue temperature, and by increasing the distance, less amount of increase in the brain tissue temperature was observed.

Similarly, the World Health Organisation reported that tissue heating has been the principal mechanism of interaction between radiofrequency energy and the human body. In the frequencies used by mobile phones, most of the energy will be absorbed by the skin and other superficial tissues, resulting in negligible temperature rise in the brain or any other organs of the body.
