Never use mobile phones in these places/situations. Here's why
From kids to adults, mobile phones have become an addiction for many. While it is difficult to do away with them, there are some places and situations where it is wiser to keep them away. Well, we are talking about these few important, daily routine things where you should never consider using your phone, no matter how important it may be.
Avoid using cell phone in your kitchen
Anyone should avoid talking over the phone in the kitchen, as there remains a chance of an explosion. Experts say that if there is a gas leak in the kitchen and your heated phone comes in contact with the same, it might lead to an explosion. Such incidents have already been reported earlier, so keep this in mind always.
Keep mobile away from food items or while eating
A study revealed that mobile phones carry more microorganisms than your toilet seats and bathrooms! This is because we take them to every place, wherever we go. It is for this reason that you should never take it to your dinner table or keep it beside your prepared food items. It may also lead to overeating as you remain distracted while scrolling through it.
Do not use mobiles in petrol pumps, while driving
Your mobile phone emits electromagnetic radiation. This invisible radiation may lead to sparks near fuel vapor or metal items. While it is deemed safe to make digital payments at a certain distance from the pumps, it is best to avoid using mobile phones unnecessarily. You should not also use a mobile phone while driving. This leads to fatal mishaps as your focus is elsewhere.
Other situations
-Never use corded phones during thunderstorms and lightning strikes. -Radiation released from a smartphone might also affect your sleep cycle in the long run, so avoid keeping it beside your bed. -Experts advise not to put the phone in the front pocket of your pant or shirt. Electromagnetic radiation might affect the normal functioning of your heart and may also impact sperm production.
