Study: Heavy Cell Phone Use Link To Cancer

A recent study of nearly 500 Israelis has shown that frequent cell phone use is linked to a 50% increased risk of developing cancer.

A new study has shown that Tumors of the parotid (salivary) glands are significantly more common in people who use cellular phones over a relatively long period. This is reportedly the first study of the possible effects of cellphone use by Israelis, who are known to utilize them for many minutes per day and start at young ages.

Those who used a cellphone very frequently on the side of the head where the tumor developed were found to have an increased risk of about 50 percent for developing a tumor of the main salivary gland, compared to those who did not use cellphones, the study revealed. The parotid gland is located under the external ear about four to 10 millimeters under the skin.

These tumors kick off the development of cancer. These numbers are compared directly to those who do not use cell phones. The study was led by Tel Aviv University epidemiologist Dr. Siegel Sadetzki. The study appeared in the American Journal of Epidemeiology.
