So simply by holding the phone away until the other person is connected, radiation can be significantly reduced; using the speaker phone for most of your calls can also increase the distance between your head and the phone essentially eliminating the radiation. Other ways are to only call when absolutely necessary. Since people are beginning to text more than talk these days, or using additional devices such as headphones to talk, radiation absorption is being reduced (Megan). Furthermore, by using electromagnetic protection devices, like EMF Blues, or keeping the phone away from the user 's body most of the time, less time will be allowed for microwaves to infiltrate the body (McKusick). Lastly, the location of the call can be vitally important. By using the cell phone in areas of low cell phone coverage or inside closed atmospheres, the radiation can be multiplied
