4 Effects you must know
1.Risks of Cancer
Mobile phones emit radiation because they transmit signal around 900MHZ.When your body absorbs the radiation emitted from it ,there are high chances it causes cancer and brain tumors. Many studies have proved that link between heavy mobile usage and increased rates of gliomas-brain cancer.
2.Weight Gain
The hormones that regulate appetite , including ghrelin and leptin, are thrown out of balance when you do not get good night's rest. This can lead to obesity as people eat more to compensate for lack of energy during the day. Increased weight, makes our life much worse and weakens our immune system
3.Mental Health Issues
Even if they are on mute , you still get notifications that turn screen on. If your pillow
doesn't
completely block the light , your eyes will pick up it and wakes up or disrupt sleep.
The result? The body releases stress hormone -cortisol if does not have good sleep. You cannot focus on your works due to lack of sleep.
4.Overheat may catch fire
When you leave the phone charging thinking that it gets full when you wake up and it is time saving .It may be overheated and could catch the bed on fire. Since your phone will be stuck under the pillow, it will have no way of dispersing all the heat it produced. This traps the heat under the pillow, and the temperature eventually raises enough to turn your phone into a fire hazard.
