Dr. Oz recommends limiting your cell phone usage and using a regular telephone line if possible. If you cant avoid using a cell phone, try to keep the phone away from your ear by using the speakerphone function. He is not sure if using a Bluetooth headset would be any safer as these too could possibly be emitting some frequency.

Surprisingly, Oprah said that she did not own a cell phone.

Something that wasnt discussed on the show was the recent news of cell phones causing the bees to die off. The Huffington Post wrote, .radiation given off by mobile phones and other hi-tech gadgets is a possible answer to one of the more bizarre mysteries ever to happen in the natural world - the abrupt disappearance of the bees that pollinate crops.

5 Steps to Staying Safe

1. Put it on speaker. Because your exposure drops exponentially as you move the phone away from your head, you dont have to keep the phone very far away to reduce your exposure by 1,000 to 10,000 times.

2. Go wired. In crowded, noisy areas, use a wired headset instead. If you must use a wireless headset, turn it off when youre not using it.

3. Store it. Unless youre on it, stow the phone in your purse or bag. If you keep it on your waist, keep it turned off. Studies have shown that keeping a cell phone in your pocket can decrease sperm count.

4. Save it for a strong signal. When reception is bad (such as in a rural areas or when youre driving) use your phone for emergencies only. The weaker the signal, the more the radio frequency has to boost itself to get connected, increasing your exposure.

5. Protect the kids. Do not let children use cell phones next to their heads. For older kids, it shouldnt take much encouragement

  • @Dubunto not you obviously but i never hold a cell phone near my ear speaker phone at a distance is the best solution or just stick to texting like i do.

  • My question is, why is it when i use my blackberry phone and hold it to my ear with volume down low that i feel a sharp aching pain in my ear? When i hold the cell phone away from my ear the problem becomes less of a problem. This has been going on for 2 years now. I have been to a doctor for a complete physical and she checked my ears and said they are fine.
