How to Protect Yourself While Talking on Your Cell
by Mobile phones are proven to be dangerous for your health. You will find ways to protect yourself from the high levels or radiation and accidents while driving and talking.

Most of us think that mobile phones are safe. That’s wrong of course. Watch the video below to find out why!
“Your mobile phones can do more than making calls! Here is how to cook an egg with two mobiles phones and a radio. Isn’t that just neat!” . That’s what the owner of the video says about it! You too can cook eggs with just your mobile phone
So what can we do in order to protect ourselves? Follow those steps and you will never have a headache while talking on the phone (well that’s the least you can suffer from mobile phones! I won’t tell the worst theories!)
- Choose mobile phones that have integrated hands-free speakerphone. By turning on the speakerphone you will be able to talk far from the mobile and don’t use your hands. This will lower the levels or radioactivity that reaches your body and will help you drive with both of your hands (avoid accidents while driving).
- Buy a hands-free. If you don’t like wired hands-free, there are bluetooth hands-free too! They are not too expensive! Their price range from 20-50$.
- Try to send SMS instead of talking. That way you will use your mobile less
- If you have to talk ον the phone while driving, do that when you wait the red light Never talk while driving because it’s too dangerous
- Never send SMS while driving! Most of the accidents happen when people try to send SMS

- When you are at home or at a friend’s home, use land-line instead of your mobile

Using the phone in the car is a very dangerous habit. I try not to do it unless I have to – but normally try to wait until I get to where I am going to return the call.

Article is pretty much bunk. There’s no conclusive evidence that cell phones are dangerous in any way.
PS: That cooking an egg thing? Yeah, that was a hoax.

Check this link. The only studies that prove cellphones to be harmless are those that are funded by the cellphone industries!

LOL…the buzzing noise the cell phones and radio made was very annoying. How do we know the egg wasn’t already cooked? I agree that there are some dangers to using cell phones, especially while driving. But microwave ovens are dangerous too.

A pretty large portion of your article is based on a complete hoax, Sotiris.
And, go ahead and compare the language of that article you just linked to the language you used.
You: Mobiles phone are *proven to be* dangerous for your health.
The article you just linked: Men who carry their cell phone
in a hip pocket or in a belt holster *could be* putting their sperm quality at risk, a British study finds.
Know why they use that language? Because a single study involving a whole 52 people doesn’t prove anything. It’s not even a statistically significant number of test subjects.
For some reason, though, you decided to take that and run with it and tell us, in vaguely broken English, all about the PROVEN FACT that cell phones are giving us cancer with their “high levels of radioactivity” (which is complete bunk, itself, btw. “Radiation” gets a bad rap because the word is used by itself when talking about *ionizing* radiation. A flashlight emits “high levels” of “radiation” too – quick, go write an article about how flashlights are going to make everyone sterile!) when even the studies you cite don’t use that type of over-the-top language.

It WAS already cooked, Joni. The “Cooking an egg with cell phones!” thing is an ancient and long since debunked hoax.

Onlywaytobesure do you own Nokia?
.
I have already submitted a fix with some mistakes I have made even before you mentioned it
The link I gave you was the first result from Google. I didn’t search much though.
Try to talk for about an hour and tells us how you head feels like after that!

No, I just take issue with poorly written, poorly researched junk articles that people churn out in droves because, being fully aware that they can’t actually write a quality piece, they figure they’ll go with quantity instead.
It makes Triond as a whole look bad, to be entirely honest. Did you even read this article before posting it? It begins with a declarative assertion of a non-fact (”Mobiles phone are proven to be dangerous for your health.”). You cited no credible resources or studies to confirm the accuracy of that assertion – not a single one. The closest you came to supporting it was by embedding a video of a hoax – a fairly ancient one, at that, that has been debunked several times over. One Bluetooth company even used that hoax as part of a viral advertisement. This, I think, is really demonstrative of just how little research you did before writing this article.
Do you honestly think that, as someone who is so gullible that you actually believed you could cook eggs with a couple of cell phones, that you are qualified to write an informative article on cell phone safety? Generally speaking, before you begin to author a piece with the intention of providing information to other people, it’s a really good idea to make sure that you are at least somewhat informed yourself.

Ok, look at here!
http://www.rense.com/general63/FACTS.HTM
Recent studies “confirm” that cell and cordless phone microwave can:
blah blah
In 1993, the telecom industry committed $25 million dollars for a series of research projects designed to prove that cell phones are safe. The studies proved just the “OPPOSITE”! They proved that federal microwave exposure standards are dangerously inadequate. Cell damage and tumors can be easily induced in the lab at about one third of the FCC’s exposure guidelines.
The telecom boys panicked. They and their lackey politicians and federal regulators decided the only lucrative thing to do was to LIE and DENY.
You can read the rest of the article there
And sorry if I am not too good to be a Triond member, based on your criteria. I make some mistakes, but a lot of people like my work. And that’s what I like here in Triond. It’s a community, not a magazine or a newspaper.

Really? The best you can bring to the table is that? Did you even look at the main page for that site? It’s tinfoil hat territory. It advertises “The magnetic pill”, some “Activate Your Sixth Sense” nonsense, and talks about the Illuminati and Bigfoot encounters. Why not just link to the Time Cube site next time? That’s at least good for a cheap laugh.

Excellent safety advice, especially regarding using hands free for safety while driving.

I don’t know why you are so aggresive onlywaytobesure. This place (Triond) is a place for us to have fun and write about anything! If you don’t like what I write you can say it but not in that aggresive way!
Thanks for your constructive critisism, but be cool and enjoy Triond community!

You wrote an informative piece that’s riddled with misinformation. What’s really impressive is that you don’t even have the good sense to be embarrassed by this.
Let’s review, one more time: You cited, as evidence that cell phones are dangerous, a long since debunked HOAX that claims you can cook an egg with cell phones. Think about that.
If you wrote an “informative” piece about how to ride a unicorn, or how to catch a leprechaun, you would every bit as deserving of ridicule as you are now.

Ok, if you think that cellphones are harmless, use them as much as you like!
I am glad that so many people liked my article.

Since you’re apparently incapable of broadly supporting your position, I’ll try to break this down into smaller pieces that you (hopefully) can cope with.
So, let’s start with this simple question: How do you justify presenting a video of a proven hoax as supporting evidence for your position that using a cell phone is unsafe?

Onlywaytobesure, I am sure that you are the kind of person that has nothing to do all day but criticize other members-who have given us beautiful and informative articles-just to draw the attention to YOU.
Triond is a place where writing is fun, this is not a grammar or spelling exam and certainly not science class!

This piece is supposed to be a “how to” and is categorized under ‘advice’, Psycho. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect it to have at least a vague basis in reality.
Writing “for fun” doesn’t mean you get to roll your face across the keyboard and publish whatever idiocy results from that without fear of criticism. By your logic, it would be perfectly ok if I wrote, say, an article on treating stomach ulcers and advised people to drink bleach. Hey, this isn’t a science class, and it’s certainly not medical school, I’m just writing for fun, right?

You are so full of yourself aren’t you OnlyWayToBeAWanker. Ya couldn’t criticise my girlfriend’s articles so you thought you’d pick on some poor guy who is just trying to make a quid. I suggest you take a good look at Shelly Barkless’ articles in future. There is plenty of fun to be had there. Oh, that’s right, I forgot! You are good friends with that poor woman aren’t you? Triond would be a much better place without the likes of you OnlyWayToBeAWanker. Fark Off!!!
