Cell phone radiation can cause DNA damage!
Since there are so many areas to research even within this arena, this page will be limited to weakly intense electromagnetic radiation that the general population is exposed to commonly. This obviously leads into topics like cellular phone use and more subtle affects of radiation to Genetic Material! “The question Is not” If cell phone […]
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is not an adequate measure to protect health
SAR tests allow an industry to set theoretically acceptable human body radiation absorption simulations. SAR Test only measure temperature (thermal) increases, rather than a cell phone’s actual microwave radiation emissions a user is exposed to. To date, the effects of cell phone radiation upon cells and biological mechanisms in the body are being debated worldwide, as […]
Health Concern RF Classifications
What is RF? RF Hazards Intro Radiofrequency (RF) fields are oscillating electric and magnetic fields. Electric and magnetic fields interact with electrically charged particles by exerting forces upon them. If these forces cause charged or polarized particles (e.g. electrons, atoms, molecules, etc.) to move, heat energy is introduced. This heat energy in the material may […]
Non Thermal RF Hazards
Researching Non Thermal RF Hazards Non thermal effects such as calcium ion efflux, blood/brain barrier, melatonin, alterations in EEG, etc., have been observed for low-intensity modulated radio frequency fields. The biological significance remains unclear as to exactly how biological effects resulting in adverse health effects in people. There have been a number of studies looking […]
Ionizing RF Radiation
What’s RF – Ionizing RF Radiation – non- Ionizing RF “Ionization” is a process by which electrons are stripped from atoms and molecules. This process can produce molecular changes that can lead to damage in biological tissue, including effects on DNA,genetic material. This process requires interaction with high levels of electromagnetic energy. Those types of […]
Thermal effects of RF Radiation
Thermal effects of RF Radiation What’s RF – Ionizing RF Radiation – Non- Ionizing RF The electric and magnetic fields produced in the body by a nearby electromagnetic source may cause both thermal and non-thermal biological effects. The effects of magnetic fields vary with frequency, and are probably greatest in biological tissue containing small amounts […]
What is RF Radiation?
The word radiation is often thought of as referring to the emanations from radioactive material and x-rays. However when scientists use the word radiation they are usually referring to electromagnetic radiation (EMR) which can be emitted from such sources as radio cell phones, TV transmissions, light from the sun as well as x-ray machines. Electromagnetic […]
Understanding Radio Frequency Wave Interference
Radio Frequency Wave Interference A natural/balanced approach for safety The below images depict Interference of visible RF waves “light”. Cell phones use non-visible RF waves “Microwaves”. The only difference between visible light waves and microwaves are their wavelengths. Microwaves used for cell phone communication have a much longer wavelength making them easy to control interference […]
Radio Frequency Safe Glossary of Terms
The descriptions below are intended to help the reader understand the text; they are not necessarily definitive scientific terms, for which the reader is advised to consult more sources. Analogue The original cellular technology used in the transmission of speech by Vodafone and Cellnet since 1985, operating as an analogue system at 900 MHz. Typically […]
Cell Phones Increase RF Radiation Output Inside Of Vehicles – Faraday Effect
Vehicular Faraday Effect Increased RF radiation inside a vehicle Because most vehicles have metal roofs and, for the most part, come with factory tinted glass, your vehicle can act as a Faraday cage and concentrating reflector. This allows your vehicle to amplify RF wave density just like a microwave oven, without allowing the RF radiation […]
Brain Damage
Brain Damage Red Herring Journalist: Niall McKay October, 2000 That driver with the cell phone may not be paying attention – or maybe it’s a tumor. Since the first yuppies held brick-size cell phones to their ears, the question has loomed. Do cell phones cause brain damage to the 200 million people who use them? […]
Dial C for Cancer
Dial C for Cancer Metro Journalist: Kelly Luker August 31, 2000 Do cell phones equal damaged brain cells? Cancer, tumors, memory loss, radiation sickness. It seems one can’t enjoy technology anymore without its faithful sidekicks, suffering and slow death. Following the well-trodden path of telephones, microwave ovens, electric blankets and power lines, cell phones and […]
Are We Lab Rats For The Cell Phone Industry?
Are We Lab Rats For The Cell Phone Industry? EWeek Journalist: Maria Seminerio August 18, 2000 The next time you use your cell phone — and if you’re like most business people you see riding planes, trains and automobiles lately, you’ll probably start dialing any second now — think about this: There have been some […]
Can Cell Phones Cause Cancer ?
Can Cell Phones Cause Cancer ? IEEE Spectrum By Kenneth R. Foster, University of Pennsylvania & John E. Moulder, Medical College of Wisconsin August, 2000 A driver using a wireless telephone might be worried about having an accident, even while being reassured that if one were to happen, he or she could call for help. […]
Cell Phones May Damage Nerves In The Scalp
Cell Phones May Damage Nerves In The Scalp Reuters Journalist: Amy Norton August 15, 2000 As cellular phones become ubiquitous, their status as a possible health threat–either as a distraction to drivers or a potential cause of brain tumors–is gaining more attention. Now, investigators say there is evidence that cell phones may damage nerves in […]
Cell Phones: We Need More Testing
Cell Phones: We Need More Testing Business Week Journalist: Norm Alster August 14, 2000 Back in the early 1980s, there were 35 researchers at the Environmental Protection Agency exploring the biological effects of radiation from cell phones and other devices. But by 1987, budget cuts had shut the program down. Since then, the Federal Communications […]
Cell Phone Health Studies Continue
Cell Phone Health Studies Continue Medill News Service Journalist: Katherine Hunt August 11, 2000 It’s too soon to say whether radio frequency emissions from cellular phones cause adverse health effects, including brain cancer, say scientists at a recent Food and Drug Association conference. “The scientific community is in agreement that [prior] research [shows cell phones] […]
