I thought wireless radiation is perfectly safe because it's non-ionizing?Updated 2 years ago

A myth among the public is that wireless radiation being non-ionizing, they cannot cause cancer. This is inexact, as non-ionizing radiation are just as dangerous as ionizing radiation, just for a different reason. Today, there is sufficient scientific evidence of cellular damage caused by non-ionizing radiation that can lead to cancer. What is true is that ionizing radiation and non-ionizing radiation do not harm our cells the same way as their biological impacts differ. Ionizing radiation generates a high energy that causes the electrons of atoms to dislodge - effectively creating the “ions”, directly damaging to the DNA; whereas non-ionizing radiation leads to an increase in free radicals, promoting oxidative stress that is the root cause of cancer, cardiovascular diseases and other diseases.
