HEALTH -- According to a new study cell phones do not increase your risk of cancer.
Researchers in Denmark looked at nearly 360,000 people who were at least 30 years old and owned a cell phone before 1995.
The study compared the rates of brain tumors in those people who used the phones and those who didn't have a phone between 1990 and 2007.
The report found no serious effects of phone use under normal exposures. These results are coming just months after the World Health Cancer Research Agency determined radiation from cell phones could possibly cause cancer.
