I have very mild headaches after being on my phone for too long. But this is just from my slight astigmatism in my eyes. Astigmatism is actually quite wierd, because before I had an eye test I didn't realise what I experienced wasn't (completely) normal (as even with it my vision is still 20/20), so I would just attribute it to the usage of my phone, but never really the radiation from it. Mabye something similar might be where people are getting the idea of harmful phone radiation from.

I studied chemistry for 4 years. Here’s my takeaway: The difference between electromagnetic energy and micro radiation is they both do not cause cancer. Colors are correlated to wave lengths which cannot penetrate through DNA or solid surfaces. If you stand close to a microwave it will not damage chromosomes or your DNA. Also the colour of visible light depends on its wavelength. These wavelengths range from 700 nm at the red end of the spectrum to 400 nm at the violet end. Visible light waves are the only electromagnetic waves we can see. And just to emphasize, Ionizing radiation mostly comes from radioactive sources. Several kinds of ionizing radiation will cause DNA damage. But for example: microwaves are not radioactive, and do not cause ionizing radiation. Another myth about microwaves is that they penetrate to the bone which is not true.

You accidentally typed electricitg instead of electricity No one knows what you're talking about with this strange electricitg you speak of As you can see from the comments.

I heard one story from friend of mine: He used to be an engineer and he was participate in costruction of radio tower for phone operator near one small town. After tower was build there are a lot of complaints was comin in to the local administration about health issue by concern citizens. They said that the headache, body temperature, heart attacks and others rates was icnreased since the tower was build. Local administration was calling phone operator to send someone who can take responsibility for this and solve this problem. So engineer guy was send by the company and when he was arrived to local administration he said: "All this issues appeared only when we built up a radio tower and now imagine what will happen if we turn it on..." So yeah, people often build false correlations and strings with independent and unrelated things to explain the source of their problems. Sorry for bad english if i was write something wrong.

UnKnown SoldierX if radio waves or WiFi was going to hurt you that would mean a light bulb is gonna do much worse lol. Visible light has a way higher frequency than microwaves such as 5g. Microwaves only cook food cuz all electromagnetic radiation transfers heat it’s just microwaves do it best at 1000 watts which is a lot of energy and at a really close distance where as a few feet away it’s thousands of times weaker. Visible light doesn’t hurt you so neither will radio waves or microwaves. Unless you had a really strong light bulb and put ur face on it and let the heat cook you just as the microwave would.

@@Crambull Because everybody wants to know an exact answer immediatley. I think "we dont know yet, we're searching for answers, but here's what we did find out so far" type of videos are better than assuming something- not backed by actual science- for the sake of viewer count. Assumptions are certainly not equal to facts.

Problem with you argument is that if you stay in sunlight 24/7 for month you will die. EM. rad. from 5G will bombard you nonstop, you can't hid from it, nobody really knows how this can impact some sensitive people, kids or fetus in pregnant woman. That why people should sleep in dark quiet room, because their body regenerate from day exposures to harmfull environment. You just add one more thing your body have to handle and regenerate from and it can't, because it's in constant exposure. Now in most crucial faze of your regeneration, you will be bombarded with something maybe not directly harmfull, but overexposure could be catastrofic.

We are constantly exposed to visible light, which is also electromagnetic radiation with 25000 times more energy than 5G (30ghz vs 750000 ghz for blue light). Sunlight contains UV radiation, which is ionising radiation and can damage your DNA because it contains lots of energy. Visible light is not ionising and 5G frequency doesn't come remotely close to a damaging frequency. It's really basic physics.

Every object you see around you reflects EM radiation close to 800.000 ghz to your body constantly throughout your whole life, but this is not damaging to us because our cells have adapted to constant exposure. EM radiation can damage DNA above 1-10 million ghz, which is UV light and everything above, like gamma and x-rays. But 2/3/4/5G frequencies don't come even close to those numbers. And we have not seen evidence that low frequency EM radiation can causes cancer or other diseases.
