Slipping your can't-live-without mobile phone in the pocket might be the most convenient place, but certainly not the smartest, if a new study is to be believed.
According to a research conducted by scientists at Turkey's Suleyman Demirel University, strapping a mobile phone on one's belt could lead to decreased bone density in the area of the pelvis, that is commonly used for bone grafts.
The research report stresses on the ill-effects of electro-magnetic emissions, the most grave being bone weakening.
This apart, The Interphone Study supported by the World Health Organisation indicates that the electromagnetic rays that connect people on the move play havoc with one's health when absorbed.
