iPhones — similar to other smartphones – employ radio frequency (RF) waves during standard operations to transmit and receive signals from nearby cellular towers. These RF waves — akin to microwaves and FM radio waves — constitute a form of non-ionizing radiation. While non-ionizing radiation can pose risks to humans at elevated intensities, the RF waves produced by mobile phones are low-intensity. Thus, the RF radiation from your iPhone lacks sufficient energy to inflict harm on the human body.
Numerous authoritative organizations, such as the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA), have stated that there is presently no scientific proof indicating that utilizing wireless devices, including mobile phones, can lead to cancer or other health issues. “Considering the assessment of the data that is currently available, the FDA concludes that the bulk of scientific evidence has not associated radio frequency energy exposure from cell phone usage with any health complications at or below the exposure limits established by the FCC,” the US FDA articulates on its site. Therefore, you need not be concerned about using your iPhone, as it will not lead to cancer or any other health concerns in your body.
