Risk & Priority
The fruits you mentioned probably has more pesticides and GMO that are directly negatively affecting you, than some non-ionizing wavelength.
We consume food, water and drugs because its a necessity, and the rewards outweigh the risks (short term at least), direct hazards are choking, drowning and allergic reactions
We travel by car/bike/plane, because its faster, we get to places quicker, but the risk and fatality statistics isn't something we consider
So the real question, should worrying about radiation from phones a priority?
Our thread and many studies have no conclusive evidence of direct fatalities involved with non-ionizing phone radiation, so should we stop using them?
We can save lives by calling our loved ones, rather than death by transport (car/bike/plane), by avoiding major risks, does this make phone radiation statistically healthier for us?

In Serbia GMO is not allowed and there are ways for pesticides to be cleaned too..Risk & Priority

Okay? I think this is a second time you have missed a point/context to a post, but il run with this, i think its naive to think this way, so i did some research into your non-GMO claim.
Serbian attitude on GMO is considered a "ban and forget" system, meaning on a national level, you're right:
But EU laws supersedes Serbias national law on free trade:
So actually Serbia is worse off, thinking everything is GMO free, does not test its produce and does not label accordingly.
And it looks like there are pushes change the "ban and forget" stance on GMO. to match with EU's system “ban-approve-label-control”
Eat up

Well the thing is my parents run a vegetable/fruits shop and most of it is not imported from other countries, only fruits that can't be grown in Serbia are imported, i mean there are countries that do import but those are mainly sold in big markets.Okay?

And also here's the law about GMO:
"According to the current Serbian law regulating GMOs, adopted in 2009, the production, use, and sale of such products is strictly prohibited. However, products are permitted to contain up to 0.9 percent of GMO content, as this is considered to be unintentional contamination"
So selling GMO products anywhere is prohibited and 0,9 percent isn't anything much and 99% don't have that much either as most products that are sold in Serbia when it comes about foods is Serbian made.

You may be eating the best homegrown, completely organic, GMO free fruits right now.
But can we assume the Siberia has a demand for seed from EU nations?
The biggest problem with GMO crops, is cross-pollination. Even if you grow organic/non-gmo, your neighbor may be growing GMO, and this or the next harvest, your crops could be GMO.
To further emphasize cross-pollination; Monsanto (US company that sells GMO seeds) were suing small farmers to protect their seed patents, all because of cross pollination.
So even though the law in Siberia is you cannot grow GMO, nobody will test it, and nobody will label it.
And if its non-GMO when you put it in the ground, it could be GMO when it fruits

God, I'm living in SERBIA, not Siberia. GMO Is not allowed in Serbia at all I basically wrote you the law mate
So this is not allowed nonononono GMO growing
It can't even come to Serbia, only products that could have GMO are those imported into country but only if its under 0,9% so not even 1%. Understood xD?

Sorry my latest post wrote Siberia when i meant Serbia - this doesn't affect the facts ive presented for Serbia though as its just a mixup
My initial post about Serbia (#24), its laws with EU its all valid, that is more law than you've supplied me.
Your country does not check for GMO, it allows GMO produce to be imported under EU rule, it does not label GMO products
You do not know that you are consuming GMO lmao

Thought this thread would be about cancer treatment. Radiation therapy works, but it is hell on the body! As far as "radiation" from TV's and whatnot: people have been plopping their kids down in front of the boob tube for ages now. If that screen caused you to grow tumors we'd have seen proof. We've had cell phones since what, the 80's? When rich cats was riding around in their cars with bricks to their heads? Ain't seen nobody with growths on their heads yet... I ain't worried
