Cordless home phones emit radio frequency radiation (RFR) – the same type of radiation as cell phones do. The cordless phone DECT base station emits RFR constantly, just like a mini cell tower in your home. Each handset sends signals to and from the base station.
Although RFR is as “non-ionizing” and “not the same’ as X-ray radiation, research has linked long-term cell phone use to brain cancer and other health impacts such as increased harmful free radicals, reproductive impacts, memory deficits, behavioral problems, brain cancer, breast cancer, DNA damage, and headaches. Reducing your exposure from RFR from cordless phones – in addition to cell phones- can decrease your daily dose of RFR.
Dr. Lennart Hardell and his team researched cancer in people who use cell phones and cordless phones. Cancer was increased statistically significant both per 100 hours of cumulative use, and per year of mobile and cordless phone use. Highest associations overall were found for ipsilateral (meaning use on one specific side of the head) mobile or cordless phone use. The highest risk was found for a tumor called glioma in the temporal lobe. In his research, first use of mobile or cordless phone before the age of 20 gave higher OR for glioma than in later age groups.
