Cell phone waves can cause osteoporosis

Long-term exposure to cell phone electromagnetic waves can cause osteoporosis, potentially affecting the results of post-bone transplant surgery.

A study by Dr. Tolga Atay and colleagues at Demirel University (Turkey) concluded: Long-term exposure to cell phone electromagnetic waves can cause osteoporosis, potentially affecting the Results of post-bone transplant surgery.

Study group of coronary bone density measurement in 150 men. These people use the phone and bring the phone at the waist.

They measured using dual x-ray absorptiometry, similar to bone density measurement in patients with osteoporosis and other bone diseases.

The thickness of bone is compared in 122 men carrying phones on the right, 28 people carrying phones on the left, and vice versa. These people carry phones on average 15 hours a day, using mobile for an average of 6 years.

The results showed a slight decrease in bone density in the hip, where these people carry phones. Statistics do not show much significant difference, and do not touch the osteoporosis level like osteoporosis patients.

However, the research team emphasized that men with average age of 32 will appear at risk of osteoporosis with many consequences later. The results of the study point to the disadvantage of bone density due to the impact of electromagnetic waves emitted by mobile phones.

The pelvic skeleton is the main bone supply for bone graft, so any drop in bone density has an important effect on recovery after surgery.

Atay and his colleagues concluded: ' Best of all, we should leave the phone as far away from the body as possible .'
