There is no objective evidence that usual use of cell phone is a risk to health. Using internet has no health risks other than getting addicted to content, e.g., porn. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Wish you good health!
