Your home cordless phones can be even more dangerous than your cell phone. As for cell phones themselves, because of the known effects of electromagnetic fields (EMFs), I used to discourage their use entirely. Then, with the advent of headsets, my once stringent recommendations relaxed a little, as headsets do help to decrease your EMF exposure. However, one of the hottest new gadgets, Bluetooth headsets that allow you to talk wirelessly to your cell phone, may be the worst of the bunch. Because the headsets are so new there are no studies on them yet. However, we have done some preliminary EMF measurements and found them to have some serious concerns. When in use they measure over 100 milligauss. Acceptable ranges should be 3 or less. What makes these even worse, however, is that this radiation is essentially in the middle of your head as many of these headsets are inserted deeply in your ear canal. So a non-Bluetooth headset is preferred but even here you need to be cautious. While hands-free devices have been found to reduce radiation from cell phones, emissions can still travel up the headset wire and into your head. It is important to know that virtually every headset out there may actually increase the radiation exposure to your brain by serving as an antenna. If you or your children use a cell …
