THE EFFECTS OF MOBILE PHONES RADIO FREQUENCY EXPOSURE ON HUMAN (TESTES, OVARY AND THE BREAST): A REVIEW

ABSTRACT

Communication is one of the most effective human needs besides food, shelter and clothing and the quest for individuals to own a mobile phone; this is not without its negative side effects. This aspect of environmental pollution may be the most significant form of pollution human activity has produced in this century. This Type of Pollution is most dangerous because it is invisible and insensible. As a result, this review highlighted the health hazards associated to radio frequency exposure, these sicknesses include - allergies, heart disease, brain cancer, depression, sleep disorder and ill- temper, Cell phones also interfere with pacemakers, among the ways to minimise exposure are - Choose a phone with the lowest RFR level, hold the phone further away from the head when in use, Use of a “hands-free” kit (with earphones), among recommendations - the principle of prudent avoidance is a reasonable way to prevent unnecessary exposures.


INTRODUCTION
Communication has been one of the most important human needs besides food, shelter and clothing, Mobile telephony is now commonplace around the world. This wireless technology relies upon an extensive network of fixed antennas relaying information with radio frequency signals which are high frequency electromagnetic waves. With the explosion of the Global system of mobile communication (GSM), the density of radio frequency waves around us is now many millions of times higher than the natural levels. This aspect of environmental pollution may be the most significant form of pollution human activity has produced in this... Read all here>>>>>
