Does the SAR standard protect users from possible health effects of RFR radiation from cellphones or other wireless devices? Well, it is BIG NOW!
Henry Lai, B Blake Levitt’s study from 2022 reviews 112 studies that showed the health and biological effects of RFR in SAR levels that are considered “within standards”, meaning lower than 1.6W/KG.
The median specific absorption value in which biological effect occurred, according to this review, was 0.0165 W/KG. 100 times lower than the allowed SAR threshold of 1.6W/KG. I am unfamiliar with any cell phone with a SAR level lower than that.
In addition to that, the researchers say that the level itself is not the only factor, as modulation type and time of exposure are also significant factors (which is overlooked in the SAR standard).
