Carrying a phone in your pocket all day may seem harmless, but researchers have found evidence linking mobile devices to decreased fertility in men. While the theory that phones can damage sperm is highly debated, one physician is taking no risks and has released a line of underwear that will protect his privates from radiation.
Concerned about the health of his 'little swimmers', Joseph Perkins from London has created a range of underwear fitted with silver 'cages' to protect them from the radiation. The Wireless Armour underwear (pictured) contains a mesh of silver woven into the fabric that shields against 99.9% of electromagnetic radiation, which is emitted from devices like smartphones, tablets and laptops.
However, researchers disagree over whether this causes fertility problems or not 'Like so many people, my smartphone and laptop use has increased dramatically in recent years, which made me realise that I was exposing myself to large amounts of electromagnetic radiation, mostly centred on my groin,' said the inventor.
'With my physics background I knew there must be a way to shield from electromagnetic radiation using a simple solution.' Described by Sir Richard Branson as 'underpants for superheroes', the Wireless Armour underwear contains a mesh of pure silver woven into the fabric that shields against 99.9% of electromagnetic radiation, which is emitted from devices like smartphones, tablets and laptops.
