- Many organizations including the cell
phone industry often downplay the risk of cell phone radiation to the brain.
Results from short-term studies were used to convince consumers that use
of a cell phone is not associated with brain tumors or cancer, which only
develop decades after exposure.
-
- To be fair, no one knows exactly how
much harm a cell phone can do to a person. Howe
-
 Recently, new media has
reported a study showing the radiation from cell phones is so full of energy
they can be used to cook eggs.
-
- In the experiment, researchers placed
one egg in a porcelain cup (because it is easy to conduct heat), and put
one cell phone on one side and another cell phone on the other. The researchers
then called from one cell phone to another and kept the cell phones on
after connecting.
-
- During the first 15 minutes, nothing
changed. After 25 minutes, however, the egg shell started to become hot
and at 40 minutes, the surface of the egg became hard and bristled. Researchers
found the protein in the egg had become solid although the egg yolk was
still in liquid form. After 65 minutes, the whole egg was well cooked.
-
- The study shows how scary cell phone
radiation is. People should try to avoid use of cell phones. Although so
far no one has proved the radiation from cell phones can cause something
clinically significant. By the same token, there has been no one who can
disprove the existence of such a risk.
-
- Children should be forbidden from cell
phone use because they still grow their brains and are particularly vulnerable
to radiation.

-
- Vladimir Lagovski and Andrei Moiseynko
from Komsomolskaya Pravda Newspaper in Moscow decided to learn first-hand
how harmful cell phones are. There is no magic in cooking with your cell
phone. The secret is in the radio waves that the cell phone radiates.
-
- The journalists created a simple microwave
structure as shown in the picture. They called from one cell phone to the
other and left both phones on talking mode. They placed a tape recorder
next to phones to imitate sounds of speaking so the phones would stay on.
-
-
-
-
- After 15 minutes: The egg became slightly
warm.
-
- 25 minutes: The egg became very warm.
-
- 40 minutes: The egg became very hot.
-
- 65 minutes: The egg was cooked. (As you
can see.)
