Default iPhone really dangerous? Blue tube headset necessary?

Dr. Mercola wrote an article saying that iPhone is dangerous because

Even when you’re not using your iPhone but have it on, it still operates as a base station, transmitting radiation to you.
Blue Tube Headset - Help Keep Harmful Cell Phone Radiation Away

What do you think about this?

The use of a Bluetooth headset may not be a healthier alternative. Bluetooth devices operate in the microwave frequency range, and though they have lower power levels compared to cell phones, you are more likely to wear the headset for long periods of time.

I really don't believe this for the simple reason that the electro magnetic radiation from the sun has so much more intensity ( more photons and way more different frequencies like te gamma rays, x rays, visible rays, infrared rays ect. ) The sun basically is way stronger than your cell phone, we have the FCC that has to approve products, they would obviously do test and those tests would have to perform to certain regulations and standards. Besides I think everyone will eventually have a bluetooth.

Why are people so concerned about radio waves? Cities all over the world are blanketed with millions of radio waves ALL THE TIME. Is there actually any proof that radiation is harmful?

He's not talking about bluetooth. He's talking about blue tube. Just another one of Mercolas products... coincidence? Things like this is why "Bloggers might get forced to disclose affiliate payments". It's really hard to distinguish the difference between helpful advice and selling tactics, as he has a product for pretty much every article he posts.

A product that would create as much radiation as the sun wouldn't get approved.

That's a different kind of radiation.

Don't keep your phone in your pocket.

Look, everywhere you go you're surrounded by other people with phones, wireless networks etc.

I don't think there's much you can do about it!
