Appendix B: Message from the FDA 3. What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?

FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization International Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its inception in 1996. An influential result of this work has been the development of a detailed agenda of research needs that has driven the establishment of new research programs around the world.

If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless phone every day, you could place more distance between your body and the source of the RF, dramatically with distance. For example, you could use a headset and carry the wireless phone away from your body or use a wireless phone connected to a remote antenna.
