Scientists have found the
first evidence linking brain cancer with mobile phone use.
It was found that users
who spend more than an hour a day talking on a mobile phone have a close to
one-third higher risk of developing a rare form of brain tumor. Most frequently,
the cancers were found on the side of the head that the user held the phone up
to.
In a study funded by the environmental group Oceana,
University of North Carolina
scientists collected samples of tuna and swordfish from more than 20 states and
a variety of national supermarket chains, including Safeway, Albertsons, and
Whole Foods.
