Something Else That Causes Cancer: Cell Phones

Jody posted this at 3:04 pm under science

Tumor may be linked to cell phone use:

A Swedish study suggests that people who use a cell phone for at least 10 years might increase their risk of developing a rare benign tumor along a nerve on the side of the head where they hold the phone.

Something else to add to the growing list of cancer causing sources: food (via pesticides, hormones, pharmaceuticals), electrical machines (microwaves, televisions, computer monitors, etc.), air, sugar, plant sap
