Is it obtrusive of uncomfortable?
No. Cell Shield is comprised of two pieces. The first is a small absorbing shield that fits seamlessly over the earpiece of any cell phone. It allows sound to pass freely but helps absorb the radiation. The second is a small radiation blocking "button" that gets applied to the top of phone near the antenna, which helps block incidental radiation that may enter the brain through the skull.

Does radiation from my phone really cause health problems?
The debate is still ongoing. Although there is not definitive proof, there has been overwhelming evidence of the potential that cell phones may cause serious health problems. These possible health problems include brain tumors, headaches, reduced response times and a rare form of leukemia. This evidence has been comprised from numerous studies performed worldwide.

How could such a simple solution protect me from harmful radiation and why hasn't cell phone manufacturers installed the technology into their new phones?
The technology is not installed by the cell phone manufacturers due to the numerous law suits that are currently awaiting trial. The inclusion of a radiation absorber into a cell phone, would be considered by many, as an admission by the manufacturers that cell phones are harmful. An admission that could cost the industry millions of dollars, if not more, just in pending and future court cases. Cell phone manufacturers are reluctant to admit that there is any danger posed by the use of cell phones. The cell phone industry even went as far as too fire the doctor, Dr. George Carlo (author of the book "Cell Phones, Invisible Dangers In The Wireless Age"), who they'd been employing for many years to study whether or not any dangers may exist. Originally hired to study whether or not cell phones may cause adverse health affects, Dr. Carlo was terminated once his testing came to the conclusion (after years of intense research & testing) that indeed there could be much cause for concern. 

Does Cell Shield wear out over time?
No. Cell Shield lasts for the lifetime of your phone and requires no maintenance.

Can I remove it from one phone and apply it to a different phone?
No. Cell Shield can only be applied to one phone because of the backing which attaches it to the phone.

Is Cell Shield effective on common household cordless phones?
At the present time there is no immediate concern about the safety of these phones, although some people have chosen not to take the risk. A cordless phone used at the home does not transmit waves as powerful as a cell phone which can transmit waves strong enough to travel 50 miles. However, as common household cordless phones become more and more powerful (work at longer distances) it may be of a concern in the future.

How do cell phones work and why do they create harmful radiation?
Cell phones do not send signals directly to satellites as many would think. They transmit microwave signals to relay stations, or "cell sites" which then bounce the signal up to the nearest satellite. These relay station towers can be up to 50 miles away, so the signal must be powerful enough to reach the relay station towers. Further, since telephone communication is two-way, the signal being transmitted is duplex, which means it is constantly transmitting microwave signals even when the user is listening and not talking. This significantly increases the time we are exposed to these waves.

How does Cell Shield differ from other products claiming to absorb radiation?
Cell Shield's "two-component absorption system" holds many US and International Patents and comes from 8 years of intensive scientific research and development in cellular protection. Cell Shield is made of a ceramic composition that absorbs electromagnetic radiation waves.
