"It&amp;#x27;s a rumor we&amp;#x27;ve heard before, the cell-phone-cancer connection, and frankly one we&amp;#x27;ve all hoped didn&amp;#x27;t have any scientific backing. But, sadly, there&amp;#x27;s some news we may all want to keep an eye on ... We&amp;#x27;ve talked about the concern about cell phones and cancer before, but the topic is in the news again, and this time, it&amp;#x27;s worth paying attention to. Obviously, cell phones are a huge part of our lives these days (um, I can&amp;#x27;t really live without my Blackberry, so yeah!). So, here&amp;#x27;s the scoop: The New York Times reports that after reviewing dozens of studies, an international panel of experts says that cell phones are possibly dangerous and cancer-causing to humans. The panel is looking to the World Health Organization for possibly new guidelines about cell phone use, given their classification of cell phones in &amp;quot;category 2B,&amp;quot; meaning they are &amp;quot;possibly carcinogenic to humans.&amp;quot; Other things in this category include the pesticide DDT and engine exhaust. Yes, this all still preliminary. Yes, more experts will need to weigh in. But, keeping your phone glued to your head all day probably isn&amp;#x27;t such a fab idea. Consider using a headset (earphones) like I do, and when you&amp;#x27;re not chatting, keep the phone a few feet away from your bod, just as a precaution. Thoughts on this news? P.S. Pregnant? Put down the cell phone, say researchers. And, the weird way cell phones may change brain activity. More Ways to Get Glamour: NEW! Now You Can Read Glamour on Flipboard!
