Mobile phone radiation

[Mr. PC]

I was wondering if anyone has read about the affects of cell phones, and apparently even wireless phones, on the brain.

http://www.psrast.org/mobileng/mobilstarteng.htm

In short, the link says
"A considerable body of evidence proves, beyond reasonable doubt, that microwave radiation from mobile phones and cordless phones cause a significantly increased risk for brain tumors. In addition, increasing evidence is indicating that it causes disturbed brain function, damage to the genes and other disturbances.."

Do you think this is significant?

I have not found any scientific study backing this up.
So, i dont think the "evidence" is there.

[Mr. PC]

Ok, so do you think both cell phone radiation and, from my other post, the 'radiant light' affects are both pseudo-science? Or do you think they may be true but probably aren't? Or do you think there's a decent chance they're true, but it hasn't been proven in a credible way?

I wish I had your research skills.

If you cannot find evidence for any of these in scientific magazines, its pseudo-science.

You do have them.
Just skim any article for the stuff that is the actual controversial part,
and look that up in PubMed.
Just try, and report back where you get stuck (or not).

A few studies have shown that mobile phone radiation does influence semen quality, percentage of apoptotic sperm cells (over 90%), and even structural changes in testicles.
For example:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19938952
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19076254
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26239320

Yes, particularly this 2015 study (Full Free Article) about the triggered apoptosis pathways in sperm cells is convincing to me.
I think that the decreased reproductive capacity of men may be good news for the world, though...

Haha!
