Yes. Can't do thermal damage, can't ionize.


I was hoping you would elaborate on this and explain how this works.The first post seems confusing.

It doesn't work. Radiation can damage tissue by ionizing atoms or molecules in DNA, which can cause cancer. You can also damage tissue by heating it up. Cell phones do neither.

Here is good chart of the Radiation types .

-radio waves the wavelength is like a house
-Microwave the wavelength is like a baseball
-Inferred ,visible light and UV the wavelength is the size of the cell
-X-ray the wavelength is the size of DNA.

So Inferred ,visible light and UV may cause skin cancer and X-ray DNA damage.
