Cell Phone Radiation

Here’s the scientific truth about detachable “anti‑radiation” cases like the magnet‑plate folios you see from several brands (e.g., models similar to SafeSleeve/DefenderShield): 1) The RF control loop makes this design counterproductive.Modern phones use uplink power control: the handset raises or lowers its transmit power to meet a target at the base station. If you degrade […]

1) What “power regulation” actually is Modern phones continuously adjust uplink transmit power to the minimum needed for a reliable connection. This is defined in cellular standards as uplink power control (LTE: 3GPP TS 36.213; 5G NR: 3GPP TS 38.213). The handset increases power when path loss or interference rises, and decreases power when conditions improve. This […]

How design choices can increase or decrease real‑world exposure—and why policy must catch up Executive summary Some “anti‑radiation” designs include metal loops, detachable magnets/plates, large unshielded ear‑side openings, or thick wraps near handset antennas. These features can degrade the link, causing the phone’s power‑control system to increase transmit power (uplink) and raise RF emissions. The […]

Design that minimizes exposure. Guidance that prevents misuse. KPIX‑5 finding (packaging & use):“The RF Safe case was the only case to explicitly say on the product packaging itself that the case should only be used with the front flap closed while on a call.Our tests found the flip cases reduced RF by an average of […]

Origin story: X‑rays in the living room—and in shoe stores In 1967, General Electric recalled roughly 90,000 color televisions after tests showed a high‑voltage tube could leak X‑rays—especially downward through cabinet vents. That scare helped force Washington to act. A generation earlier, U.S. shoe stores used X‑ray fluoroscopes on children until states started banning them […]

Why Public Law 90‑602 still matters 1) The consumer shock that changed federal law In 1967, routine testing found that certain large‑screen GE color televisions were emitting X‑rays at far above acceptable levels because a high‑voltage regulator tube leaked radiation, especially downward through cabinet vents. GE moved to modify about 90,000 sets; Public Health Service […]

How we left a high-fidelity electromagnetic habitat, flooded the Schumann cavity with entropic waste, and stalled the continuity of human genius (1880 → 2025). Thesis: Life evolved inside a quiet, low-noise electromagnetic habitat — the Earth–ionosphere Schumann cavity. That quiet wasn’t optional; it was the cellular Goldilocks zone that let bioelectric signals coordinate growth, memory, […]

By any honest reading of U.S. law, protecting families from product radiation isn’t optional—it’s mandated. We have to act like it. 1) Health Leadership with Teeth Paul G. Rogers—“Mr. Health”—was the House architect behind the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968 (Public Law 90‑602). He introduced H.R. 10790 and shepherded it through […]

Thesis: Congress already gave the federal government the tools to protect families from hazardous emissions—and it used those tools to clean up the air. Paul G. Rogers, the primary House sponsor of the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968 (Public Law 90‑602), helped write that playbook. Today, we can apply the same […]

Paul G. Rogers earned the name “Mr. Health” because he wrote laws that compel the federal government to protect people—not suggest it, mandate it. His 1968 Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act (Public Law 90‑602) still does exactly that: it requires HHS to run a continuing program, to do the research, and to set […]

The lawmaker who bridged public health and environmental protection Paul G. Rogers, the Florida Democrat nicknamed “Mr. Health,” left fingerprints on two of the most consequential U.S. health‑protection regimes: the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968 (Public Law 90‑602) and the 1970 Clean Air Act amendments. In the House, Rogers introduced the […]

Why this matters now The popular talking point that “most epidemiology shows no effect” from wireless radiation ignores how exposure was measured, who was counted, and what the best animal evidence now shows. In 2010–2011, the INTERPHONE consortium called the heaviest users those with ≥1,640 lifetime hours—about 30 minutes/day for 10 years. Even under that […]

Short version The biggest industry‑supported case‑control study (INTERPHONE) labeled about 30 minutes/day as “heavy use.” Even at that bar, the heaviest‑use decile (≥1,640 h total) showed 40% higher glioma risk and similar signals for acoustic neuroma. Kids today routinely exceed that exposure. IARC Two large animal bioassays (NTP and Ramazzini) independently report excess malignant gliomas […]

Topic: Wireless safety, public health, media accuracy On September 24, 2025, Dr. Joel Moskowitz (UC Berkeley) submitted a letter on behalf of the International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields (ICBE-EMF) urging Prevention magazine to revise its September 18 article, “Do Cell Phones Cause Cancer? Experts Explain the Latest Science.” The ICBE-EMF contends […]

Since 2012, controlled mouse experiments have shown that prenatal radiofrequency (RF) exposure produces ADHD‑like behaviors and cognitive deficits. In the landmark Yale study, offspring exposed in utero to 800–1900 MHz cell‑phone RF were hyperactive and showed impaired memory on standardized tests (object‑recognition, light/dark box), with dose‑responsive synaptic changes in prefrontal cortex neurons—consistent with attention/memory problems. Multiple […]

TL;DR: Hundreds of experiments show that radiofrequency (RF) exposures—especially real-world, pulsed/modulated signals from phones, Wi-Fi, DECT, etc.—elevate reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells. That draws down the body’s main antioxidant buffer, glutathione (GSH). Acetaminophen (Tylenol) also consumes GSH (to detox its NAPQI metabolite) and its active metabolite AM404 directly modulates nociceptor sodium channels (Naᵥ1.7/1.8)—another path […]

It’s the Case for Truth About RF Safety. TL;DR: If a case claims “99% protection” while your phone is still transmitting microwaves, it’s selling comfort, not safety. Worse, common design mistakes (metal loops, magnet plates, unshielded speaker holes, 360° foils) can detune antennas and make your phone transmit harder. QuantaCase™ exists to stop the safety […]

And why RF Safe still offers phone cases after 25+ years For over 25 years, RF Safe Approved designs have held a single line: no compromises. You will never see metal loops, metal plates, or gimmicky detachable magnet systems on our products—because those “features” can increase your exposure. We didn’t pioneer anti-radiation cases in the […]

RF SAFE’s position is clear: repeating 1990s talking points about “non-ionizing = safe” and leaning on outdated FCC limits is dangerous for families—especially children. In 2024–2025, multiple authoritative reviews and new human data strengthened the hazard signal for radio-frequency (RF) exposures. That science directly contradicts YouTube-friendly reassurances that Bluetooth buds and constant near-body phone use […]

 Dr. Mike’s “Bluetooth and phones are safe” message leans on 1990s-era exposure assumptions and skips multiple 2024–2025 reviews commissioned within the WHO RF project and fresh human/animal data. Those reviews now rate animal evidence for RF-linked gliomas and heart schwannomas as high-certainty—a major shift he doesn’t reflect. He also downplays non-thermal mechanisms that modern papers […]

Two Stages Of Brain Development, One Mechanism, One Common Denominator Leading To Cause: How a 1997 embryo study turned a promise into RF Safe I didn’t start RF Safe as a business plan. I started it as a promise. In 1995, my firstborn, Angel Leigh Coates, died from a neural-tube defect. In the months that […]

Two Stages, One Mechanism: How a 1997 embryo study turned a promise into RF Safe I didn’t start RF Safe as a business plan. I started it as a promise. In 1995, my firstborn, Angel Leigh Coates, died from a neural-tube defect. In the months that followed, the only actionable science pointed to folate. So […]

Why usage data don’t support a Tylenol‑led surge—and how a new Tylenol mechanism actually strengthens the EMF case. If you want to understand a complex health trend, start with a simple question: What changed in the environment before the change in people? For autism, the earliest child descriptions that read like modern diagnoses appear in […]

Thesis in one sentence: From the first long‑wave military transmitters and public towers in the 1910s–1920s to the household wave of cordless phones (1980s), Wi‑Fi (2000s) and smartphones (2010s–2020s), the density and duty‑cycle of man‑made, pulsed RF fields has climbed step‑by‑step—and autism diagnoses and other neuro‑immune conditions have risen in lockstep over the same eras.
