Mobile phones use electromagnetic radiation in the microwave range. Currently we have two opposing groups concerning cell phone health hazards. Number one group relies on studies funded by the telecom industry and number two group bases its results on independently funded research.
Guess which group says there are no health risks concerning the use of wireless phones? Number one. Group number two, as you may already have guessed, has found studies which have very disturbing health issues connected with cell phone health hazards..
Variable Heat Gun
I side with number two group because of the number of results I have found which show how many scientific studies have had their funding withdrawn after negative results were reported.
Rachael Carson was chastised when she raised the warning about DDT; Herbert Needleman when he warned us about lead poisoning in children; and Irving Selikoff when he warned us about the harmful effects of asbestos?
Why do we have to wait years to heed the warnings and take them seriously, after the damage is done and people's lives have been damaged? Why is hindsight always 20/20?
Besides the funding of the telecom industry influencing the research results, what other variables are skewing the research results concerning cell phone health hazards?
Number one,the World Health Organization and other governing bodies that regulate wireless communication technologies base their safety standards on the heating of skin tissue not on the actual heating of the brain...heating of the brain?
Remember electromagnetic radiation is within the microwave frequency. Think of the microwave oven that many of us use everyday. How does it work? Unlike putting a pot on to boil and heating from the outside, microwaves heat from the inside out. The brain has no sensory nerve endings to warn us that this heating is taking place.
On top of this, the structure of the head and brain is very complicated and is non-uniform, meaning changing in unpredictable ways. When these "hot spots" are produced with the heating of the brain they can vary by tens or hundreds of times compared to brain tissue nearby.
Think of it like this. Just like on a poorly made pot or skillet, hot spots can exist and the temperature can vary greatly from one spot to another and result in burning and under-cooking on the same surface. Hot spots in the brain have been found by cell phone radiation studies to be close to the surface of the skull, deep within the brain and also on a molecular level.
Number two, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulates cell phones. With most new phones, a number called the Specific Rate Absorbtion (SAR) is included. This number is supposed to rate how energy (radiation) is absorbed by the brain. How is this number determined?
First an arbitrary assumption (number) is concocted out of thin air, representing the rate of safe release of added heat from the brain. The rate the FCC came up with was up to 1 degree C per hour. Using this mystery number a head made of plexi-glass and filled with a homogeneous (uniform) liquid is heated. Voila because the liquid is uniform, no hot spots are formed.
The problem with this is that reality exists. Our brains are not homogeneous but no-uniform and people use their cell phones for hours a day chronically heating spots in their brains. It probably won't come as a shock at this point, but process for determining SAR numbers was created by electrical engineers, not doctors.
Number three problem area, which is really the "smoking gun" concerning cell phone hazards, is damage which occurs to the blood-brain membrane, which protects the brain and lets nutrients pass from the blood to the brain and keeps toxins out.
Leif Salford, a Swedish neurosurgeon has been running different variations of one simple experiment since 1988. Young laboratory rats, which have the same blood-brain membrane as humans, are exposed to either cell phone radiation or microwave radiation and then sacrificed to look for albumin in their brain. Albumin is a protein normally existing in blood which is not supposed to cross over into the brain.
For 18 years his researchers have consistently found albumin in the brain tissue by exposing the rats to microwave radiation at doses equal to a cell phone's emission. A one-time exposure of two minutes resulted in a leak of albumin into their brain, meaning that blood vessels have been damaged and the membrane has compromised.
In 2003, another one of Salford's cell phone hazards research studies determined that a one time 2 hour cell phone exposure permanently damaged the membrane and destroyed 2% of the rat's brain in areas responsible for learning, memory and movement.
You don't have to be a research scientist to understand these results. What do you think? Are we the lab rats being experimented on now? What is happening to us and what can we do to protect ourselves?
