Are cell phones and EMFs really harming your health?

I've covered GMOs twice, organic food, and pesticides.

Today, I'm tackling another hot button issue, the dangers, or lack thereof, of modern electronics,

That's fairly unassailable.

But from brain cancer to bone loss to sperm mutation to behavioral problems, EMFs, a byproduct of many electronic devices, have been blamed for many health problems.

What does the evidence say? And if there are real issues, what can we do to mitigate them?

How far should we go? If you're already pretty versed in primal living, you're probably already familiar

with the non-emf-related costs to staying too plugged in. Too much reliance on digital life and not
