Cell Phones and Electromagnetic Radiation

I know you don't want to hear this but you need to know but using your cell phone could be extremely hazardous to your health. The evidence continues to mount that the electromagnetic radiation is very dangerous. In fact one study shows 70-80% of the energy emitted from the antenna of your cell phone is absorbed in your head.(1)

Studies suggest that electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs) emitted by cell phones can cause:

bulletHeadache
bulletSleep disruption
bulletBrain tumors
bulletAlzheimer's Disease
bulletParkinson's Disease
bulletAltered memory function, concentration and spatial awareness, forgetfulness and sudden confusion
bulletOther forms of cancer
bulletAutism

There appears to be a direct relationship between brain tumors and cell phone use. The increase in brain tumors correlate directly to the increased use of cell phones. And your brain is protected by a skull bone. Carrying your cell phone on your waist is even worse since there is no bone to protect your internal organs from the EMF. Instead your organs absorb them.

In New Zealand, cell phone towers are not permitted to be installed on school property due to the potential dangers to children with growing bodies and cells.

Tamara Mariea,CCN, founder of Internal Balance(TM), Inc.,is releasing findings from more than five years of research on clients with autism, and other membrane sensitivity disorders that point to electromagnetic radiation stress, which increases with the proliferation of cell phone and wireless use, as one of the potentially major root causes of the explosion of autistic cases in the past two decades. There should be a decrease in autism in children with the removal of mercury from children's vaccines, Mariea instead found a huge increase. Autism struck 1 child in 10,000. That statistic is now 1 in 150 since the late 1970's, the time of the introduction of microwaves. (2)

How can you protect yourself from the EMFs?

bulletHeadsets do not protect your head from the EMF. Instead, the wire of the head piece could conduct the radiation to your brain. Bluetooth headsets are even worse. And even if a headset would lessen the effects, the impact would be the same since cell phones emit far more radiation than is needed to have detrimental effects.
bullet Wireless headsets represent an even greater risk because the wire is replaced with a transmitter and receiver operating with low power at frequency levels between 900 MHz. to 2.4 GHz. The maximum frequencies for wireless products compliant with Bluetooth specifications are 2.497 GHz. The frequency power of wireless headsets rivals that of microwave ovens, which also operate at 2.4 GHz.(1)
bulletThe best way to protect yourself from the EMF is to not use a cell phone for more than 15 minutes a week.
bulletIf that doesn't work, then use a speakerphone in your cell phone and stay away from it.
bulletYour cell phone, when its on, continually connects to towers so the radiation is still there even if you are not using it to talk. Put it in another room if you aren't going to use it immediately. You can hear it ring from a distance.
bulletGet a head set that DOES NOT conduct the EMF to your brain.
bullet The British Independent Group on Mobile Phones suggested headsets would be an ideal solution only if they were used with filters to stop the headset wire from acting as an effective antenna --a tiny inexpensive ferrite bead that clips on your cell phone wire provides such a filter for further reducing dangerous radiation (1)
bulletDo not set up a wireless network at your home or office. This uses the same type of EMF. Use cables instead of wireless. Don't live in a town that offers city wide wireless internet connection. Avoid coffee shops and other places with wireless internet, or minimize your exposure.

According to Dr. Mercola, "EMR exposure can cause irreparable harm to you and your loved ones. If you use your cell phone more than 15 minutes a week, it can shorten your life, even if you are healthy. No one is immune to the ravaging health effects of this radiation."(1)

In 1995, Cell phone sales in North America exceeded the birth rate. Hired by the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association to condone cellphones, public health scientist George Carlo found that rare tumors on the outside of the brain are more than doubled among cell phone callers - particularly on the right side of the head where phones are usually held. Carlo told ABC’s “20/20″ that cell phone causes genetic damage that leads to cancer. Warning of “the potential for a global health disaster,” ABC recommended “prudent avoidance” of cellphones after finding that every cellphone they lab-tested exceeded the Federal Communication Commission’s standards for EMF absorption rates. EMF researcher Dave Ashton cautioned 20/20 viewers that because cellphones constantly search for the nearest repeating tower, “long-term damage comes from cell phones in the stand-by mode.” Cell phone “shields” and headsets “cannot adequately address these problems,” Ashton added.” (3)  

“Dr. Carlo later told London’s Express newspaper that cellphones cause genetic damage following a dose-response curve. That is, the more a person uses a cell phone, the more cellular destruction and health risks they incur. Cell phone-confused cells can go crazy, Carlo cautioned. Experiments on captive animals show that this cumulative DNA damage is passed on to succeeding generations.”

“Addicted as we are to a culture of convenience, we forget how inconvenient it is to contract cancer. An Adelaide Hospital study confirmed Carlo’s conclusions after finding B-cell lymphomas doubled in mice within 18 months of one-hour daily exposure to power densities experienced by a cellphone user. B-cell lymphomas are implicated in 85% of all cancers.” (3) It takes cancer 20-30 years to develop. We won't know how bad it will be for that many years. Imagine a whole generation or two of our people getting cancer of the brain from cell phone use.

The brain reaches peak absorption in the UHF bands, right where cellular telecommunications operate.

British military scientists have discovered that cellphone transmissions disrupt the brain areas responsible for memory and learning, causing forgetfulness and sudden confusion.

  “Unless we start voting with our wallets, consumer complacency could prove as species-limiting as corporate cynicism. “Microwave frequencies are the same as those used in radar and your microwave oven,” says Florida cellphone tower opponent Joe Chwick. “You wouldn’t think of sticking your head in the oven, but there is no hesitation to putting the cell phone to your ear.” They use the same frequencies!

Research on Correlation Between Autism, Cell Phones, and Wireless Computers by Tamara Mariea - Today the incidence of autism in the United States is 1 in 150 children, according to published CDC reports, a horrific increase from the end of the 1970s, when the ratio of autism in our society was 1 in 10,000, before the cell phone, wireless and similar technologies were introduced into the environment that produce radio waves.
