The use of cellular telephones is not linked to the risk of developing cancer. This is stated in a study published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.

The researchers of the respective study have studied the development of cancer in patients, from 1975 to 1992. They also analyzed the period between 1995 and 2008 when the number of diagnoses of oncological diseases increased. As a result they concluded that radiation from cell phones does not directly affect the development of tumors.

Research has shown that there is no risk of developing brain tumors in cell phone users.

Instead, researchers have linked the risk of developing tumors to poor ecology, contaminated food, and obesity.
