After my first colon cancer, I read all I could find about cell phones and cancer, and did not find anything substantial. The most interesting was an indication that perhaps the radiation could impair the immune system's ability to fight cancer. But I think that stress of modern life would affect the immune system more.

I would be more worried about the increase of chemicals in the environment, such as PFAS and nanoplastics.

I would be more worried about the quantity of $7 a bag Doritos-derived chips and blue Mt Dew they are eating.

Our environment has been riddled PFAs for generations.
