How is RF radiation different to the radiation we learn about in school?
What can they penetrate and what can block them?
I looked up articles but i don’t really understand. I’ve been sleeping with my phone under my pillow for 7 years and i need to know if my pillow was enough to block out the RF radiation emitted by my phone or if i have an increased risk in brain cancer.
(Sorry if this is all phrased incorrectly, i’ve been panicking for the past few minutes)
In: Chemistry
The main difference is that RF radiation if not ionizing, while the others are. What this means is that the other radiation you mentioned has the ability to modify parts of the cells in your body. This is what sometimes causes cancer.
RF radiation does not do this. It does not modify cells the way the other radiation does. It does not result in cancer.
If you’re still worried though, just deactivate your WiFi and cellular (and Bluetooth if you want to be 100% sure).
