8 Ways to Reduce Radiation When Using Your Smart Phone, Number 5 Will Shock You

Smartphone releases low radio frequency energy, which is a form of non-ionizing radiation. The frequent exposure of the body to this forces it to absorb the energy, which can lead to serious health issues. In fact, the World Health Organization has labelled mobile phones radiation as possibly carcinogenic to humans.

To help you stay safe from the hazardous effect of cell phone radiation Naijainfoshare  has provided 10 ways to help you reduce radiation when using a smart phone

  • Place The Keypad/Touch-pad Part of Your Phone Towards Your Body.

If you must put your phone in your pocket make sure the touch or keypad side is positioned towards your body and the back is positioned toward the outside so that the transmitted electromagnetic fields move away from you rather than through you.

  •  Avoid carrying your cell phone on your body at all times. 

For those who sleep with their phone, do not keep it near your body at night such as under the pillow or on a bedside table, particularly if pregnant. You can also put it on “flight” or “off-line” mode, which stops electromagnetic emissions.

  • Avoid Wearing Bluetooth Always
 
Some people prefer Bluetooth devices just avoid  phone radiation while making phone calls. Anyway, what you must know is that Bluetooth wireless devices expose you to radiation. However, the radiation is not as much as that of your phone; in any case, you should not wear Bluetooth always.

  • Keep Your Phone Fully Charged
 
Your phone is more likely to emit radiation when the battery is low. This is because your phone is forcing itself to connect to the network. It is easy for you to find the network when the battery is fully charged. As a caution, do not make calls with low battery mobile phones.

  •  Make Use of Your Loud Speaker

 We all do it, but it's advisable to switch sides regularly while communicating on your cell phone to spread out your exposure. Before putting your cell phone to the ear, wait until your correspondent has picked up. This limits the power of the electromagnetic field emitted near your ear and the duration of your exposure.


  • Text instead of calling

Nowadays, you do not even need to use text messages; there are messaging platforms you can use for chatting including WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and the BBM.

  • Choose a Device With The Lowest SAR
 
SAR - Specific Absorption Rate, which is a measure of the strength of the magnetic field absorbed by the body.

SAR ratings of contemporary phones by different manufacturers are available by searching for “sar ratings cell phones” on the internet.

  • Take a Phone Break
 
Most times when you use your phone for so long, it will do you lot of good if you can take a break from your phone. This does not mean you should leave your phone at home. You should just reduce usage.
