EMF/R HEALTH ISSUES – AND 5G IS A CRITICAL ISSUE

Health problems and diseases are proliferating, and being caused and aggravated by, non-native (unnatural) electromagnetic frequencies that we are now immersed in, daily.  Americans are not being informed about the rapidly growing toll on our health and the destructive effects of electromagnetic fields (EMF), and electromagnetic radiation (EMR), and radiofrequency radiation (RFR) in our everyday lives.  In the last 30 years, electrical / radio / magnetic pollution has increased by 1012, or 1 Trillion times.

As a result, growing numbers of people are needlessly suffering, and a great toll is taken on the natural world around us, while plans are concocted by a few senseless and unqualified profiteers for the future of the People.  Now, in 2020, the situation is becoming dire.  Check my notes on Attorney Dafna Tachover’s presentation in December 2018, for an overview and timeline of progression toward 5G, fifth generation wireless technology, that is BEYOND TOXIC in its potential destruction to people and nature.  

India’s problem is greater now because regulation of cellphone tower power density is LOWER than in the United States. Also, their population is very congested and everybody has a smart phone, which compounds the problem.

Dafna says, 25 percent of our population aged 13 thru 18 now have anxiety due to EMR.  20-30% of people who are sick are suffering from EHS.

Dr. Zach Bush says, 25 percent of girls age 12 in the United States today, already have antibodies to their own thyroid glands, due to the increasingly invasive cellular signalling confusion in our bodies from EMF and EMR.  

Studies around the world HAVE PROVEN the harmful effects of EMF/EMR, but the truth is repressed in America by federal agencies bought and captured by corporate interests to further their agendas. 

But now the Age is Turning, and many who have dedicated their lives long-term to bringing forward real science and informing the public are finally being heard!  We must become aware of the dangers and become cognizant of our environments.  We must halt 5G proliferation, before we do further harm to our bodies and souls from ignorance and loss of natural senses.  Our very orientation with reality on Earth is at stake.

Increasingly, the electric, radio, and magnetic intensity of our artificial environments is causing people to be afflicted with such problems as:

  • Broken Blood Brain Barriers (In a study done with 700 people, 28% had broken BBBs)
  • Heart stress, arrhythmia
  • Hypertension
  • Irritability
  • Headaches
  • Immune system disorders
  • DNA breakage and damaged mitochondrial function
  • Panic attacks
  • Tingling and ‘electrical’ jolts and twinges in hands or body
  • 50% reduction in male sperm health, 47% with those who carry phone in pocket
  • Autism 1 in 40
  • Acoustic neuroma (cancer in the nerve linings in the ear)
  • Schwanomas
  • Exacerbation of asthma and allergies
  • Diabetes
  • Birth deformities and miscarriages
  • Sleep disorders

STUDIES are listed below — a fraction of thousands — that yield salient information about the health effects of unnatural electromagnetic fields and radiation (EMF/R), and destructive effects on the natural world.

The internet information platform EMF-Portal of the RWTH Aachen University summarizes systematically scientific research data on the effects of electromagnetic fields (EMF). All information is made available in both English and German. The core of the EMF-Portal is an extensive literature database with an inventory of 41,170 publications and 7,012 summaries of individual scientific studies on the effects of electromagnetic fields.

2-16-2023:  Case Report: A 52-Year Healthy Woman Developed Severe Microwave Syndrome
Shortly After Installation of a 5G Base Station Close to Her Apartment

2-4-2023:  A new study co-authored by Dr. Hardell with Mona Nilsson Development of the Microwave Syndrome in Two Men Shortly after Installation of 5G on the Roof above their Office (anncaserep.com)

A case study of two men who developed microwave syndrome after 5G cell antennas were placed on the rooftop of the building where these two men worked and lived, with both developing symptoms of headache, tinnitus, dizziness, balance disorder, early wake-up, concentration and attention deficiency, lung problems/dyspnea/ cough, and fatigue.  Additionally, one of the men also developed anxiety/panic, insomnia, and hair loss, while the other also developed arthralgia and skin problems with burning sensations.  Click here for the study.

3-2-2022  Electromagnetic hypersensitivity close to mobile phone base stations – a case study in Stockholm, Sweden by Lennart Hardell and Tarmo Koppel

A previously healthy 55-year old woman developed electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) after moving to an office on the 6th (top) floor, where she was 4 meters below cell phone towers on the roof of her office building, with exposure to high levels of electromagnetic fields (EMFs). She developed severe headache, arthralgia, tinnitus, dizziness, memory loss and concentration difficulties, fatigue, insomnia, heart palpitations, blood pressure problems, nosebleeds, coughs, candidiasis, hair loss, and skin burning and skin lesions. Most of the symptoms were alleviated after leaving work for 2 weeks. [She later relocated to a different office in the building where she continued to recover.] The highest radiofrequency (RF) field level at her working place was 1.72 V/m (7,852 μW/m2 = 0.7852 μW/cm2 ) Not specified whether the 1.72 V/m (= 0.7852 μW/cm2) was peak or average.


12-28-2022  A new paper from Dr. Hardell (highlighted) documents the symptoms of a couple living 5m under a 5G base station before and after its installation. A link for the paper Case Report: The Microwave Syndrome after Installation of 5G Emphasizes the Need for Protection from Radiofrequency Radiation In the bedroom located only 5 meters below the new 5G base station, the highest peak exposure was 250+ µW/cm2, compared to peak of 0.9000 µW/cm2 under the previous 4G tower. The couple rapidly developed symptoms after the 5G deployment that were typical for microwave syndrome, with neurological symptoms, tinnitus, fatigue, insomnia, emotional distress, skin disorders, and blood pressure variability. Due to the severity of symptoms, the couple left their dwelling and moved to a small office room with maximum (peak) RF radiation 0.35 µW/cm2, and then moved again to the country where the radiation was 0.0033 µW/cm2….. Their symptoms improved with each move to a lower RF radiation environment. Within a couple of days of moving outof their apartment below the 5G base station, most of their symptoms alleviated or disappeared completely.


4 Studies Add to Evidence of Wireless Technology-Related Electromagnetic Radiation in Humans


3-16-2018 

1) Radiofrequency radiation from nearby base stations gives high levels in an apartment in Stockholm, Sweden: A case report

This study measured RF radiation levels in an apartment-facing cell tower antennas from a building nextdoor.

The total mean RF radiation level was 3,811 µW/m2 ( = 0.3811 µW/cm2).

The range was 15.2‑112,318 µW/m2 ( = 0.00152 – 11.2318 µW/cm2 peak) for the measurement of the whole apartment, including balconies.

The total mean RF radiation level emitted from the cell towers accounted for 98% of the average RF radiation levels.

Dr. Martin Pall, Professor Emeritus of biochemistry and Basic Medical Sciences, Washington State University published a study in May 2018 entitled:  “5G: Great risk for EU, U.S. and International Health! Compelling Evidence for Eight Distinct Types of Great Harm Caused by Electromagnetic Field (EMF) Exposures and the Mechanism that Causes Them.”  

His 90-page document is one of the best summaries of current available science on EMFs, backed with a very strong argument describing the mechanisms of harm, biophysics, and why 5G is inherently dangerous to human health and life.  Just reading the summary can help you understand why many of us are very engaged in halting this untested technology before it accelerates self-destruction in unwitting communities.

 

For a good overview of the 5G problem, here is the Environmental Health Trust 5G information page.

EMF pollution is also causing bee colony collapse, bird deaths and disruption of migration patterns, tree diseases, more toxic mold growth, inflammation, and is contributing to the danger from super bugs that do not respond to antibiotics.

This article lists studies that have been conducted on insects, birds, animals, trees, amphibians, etc., to show the effects on NATURE.  By now it is strongly suspected that the sudden loss of 60 percent of insects we are just realizing is due to the cellphone towers and wi-fi we already have, before 5G is implemented and activated.

Effects of RFR Exposure on Birds and Insects, “How 5G Will Kill Birds, Bees, and Your Loved Ones, by American Intelligence Media. 

Here is an excerpt from an article at “Prepare for Change“, which lists results of studies conducted in several nations:

“An experiment at the Medical Research Institute of Kanazawa Medical University showed that 60 GHz millimeter-wave antennas produce thermal INJURIES IN RABBIT EYES, with thermal effects reaching below the eye’s surface. This study, meanwhile, suggests low-level MMW’s [millimeter waves] caused lens opacity–a precursor to cataracts–in rats’ eyes. A Chinese study demonstrated that eight hours of microwave radiation damaged rabbits’ lens epithelial cells. A Pakistani study concluded that exposure to mobile phone EMF prevented chicken embryo retinal cells from properly differentiating.”

Educate yourself and be proactive to eliminate or minimize wireless technology in your life, to take care of your body.  Become aware of the electrical currents around you, and especially cellphone towers!  Get an EMF meter and check your home for electronic/magnetic / radio hotspots and intrusions.  I highly recommend Electricsense.com as an information source, and for pioneering solutions internationally about this issue. 

Limit your Screen Time with electronic devices!  Adults and especially, children, are developing disorders from too much screen time, which throws off the body’s natural cycles, disrupts sleep, distorts attention, irritates eyes, and overstimulates nervous systems.

Read the Petition to the United Nations from 26,000 Scientists for a good overview summary of this issue that would affect the balance of life and nature on our planet Earth

Wireless radiation Promotes Viral Replication by Increasing Intracellular Calcium – Clear Evidence

Two studies, published within the last couple months, both from China, (Bai et al 2020 and Chen et al 2019}, show that viruses attack host cells by opening their voltage gated calcium channels (VGCCs), which increases their intracellular calcium ion (Ca2+) concentration, and that increasing the  intracellular Ca2+ concentration increases replication of the virus, which thus increases the viral infection.

Bai et al, 2020:  “Porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV) … infection was found to upregulate intracellular Ca2+ concentrations of IPI-2I cells… 

Treatment with Ca2+ channel blockers, particularly the L-type Ca2+ channel blocker diltiazem hydrochloride, 

inhibited PDCoV infection significantly… diltiazem hydrochloride reduces PDCoV infection by inhibiting the replication step of the viral replication cycle. 
Additionally, knockdown of CACNA1S, the L-type Ca2+ voltage-gated channel subunit, inhibited PDCoV replication.”

” PDCoV infection increased the intracellular Ca2+ levels. Treatment with Ca2+ chelators and channel blockers significantly decreased viral yield.”

Chen et al, 2019: 

” Viruses induce elevated cytosolic calcium concentration to activate Ca2+ dependent/sensitive enzymes and transcriptional factors to promote virus replication. “

“Since 1984, it has been known that verapamil, the blocker of VGCCs, inhibits influenza A virus (IAV) infection [7]. Moreover, IAV infection induces Ca2+ influx, and the elevated intracellular Ca2+
promotes endocytic uptake of IAV [8]….”a VGCC blocker, diltiazem, significantly prolonged the survival of IAV-infected mice and allowed the recovery of the survivors.”

“the VGCCs blockers are excellent candidates for broad-spectrum anti-virus treatment…modulators for host calcium channels are the pots of gold for antiviral drug development”  “The disturbance of the host Ca2+ system by virus may suppress T-cell responsiveness, antiapoptotic, and other protentional functions.”

2004 Study by Dr. Gunnar Heuser on California Firefighters found Brain Damage from Cell Tower Installations at their Fire Stations

Dr. Heuser conducted a SPECT brain study on firefighters in 2004 who complained of neurological problems following a cell tower installation at their firestation, which found that they were abnormal.  Symptoms they experienced:  headaches, memory problems, sleeping problems, depression, and anxiety.

Gliomas Now Most common Cancer in 15 to 19-Year Olds, Increasing Worldwide

Forecast for 2019-2025 shows an “Increase in prevalence of brain tumours (According to U.S. National Cancer Institute (NCI) glioblastoma multiforme is considered as the most aggressive form of brain cancer with 15.4% of all primary brain tumours and about 60% – 75% of all astrocytoma) driving the growth of glioblastoma multiforme treatment market. North America dominates the glioblastoma multiforme treatment market .. North America region growth is attributed to increase in the prevalence of glioblastoma multiforme disease (According to Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2011, approximately 22,000 adults in the U.S. were diagnosed with primary malignant tumours of the brain and spinal cord out of which gliomas accounted for the highest rate of incidence)”.  Global Glioblastoma Multiforme Treatment Market Study

A report published in 2015 in the journal Neuro-Oncology finds that gliomas are the most common cause of cancer-related deaths in adolescents and young adults aged 15-39 and the most common cancer occurring among 15-19 year olds  (see p. 18 of study here.

Four Studies Documenting Health Effects of Wi-Fi Radiation on Children in Schools

(posted 5-3-2019)

Click here for Overview and Summary

Four Studies: Wireless radiation causing gliomas, Schwannomas, myelin damage

Number 1 – The US government National Toxicology Program’s $30 million study showed that 3% of rats that were exposed to cell phone radiation developed gliomas, whereas rats that were not exposed did NOT develop gliomas. The rats also developed malignant Schwannomas.  Results were statistically significant – it’s preliminary May 2016 report here http://biorxiv.org/content/early/2016/05/26/055699.full.pdf+html  

In November 2018, the NTP published its cell phone safety sheet based on its study.  It states: https://www.niehs.nih.gov/health/materials/cell_phone_radiofrequency_radiation_studies_508.pdf

  • Clear evidence of tumors in the hearts of male rats. The tumors were malignant schwannomas.
  • Some evidence of tumors in the brains of male rats. The tumors were malignant gliomas.

Number 2 – Kim, Ju Hwan, et al.   “Long-term exposure to 835 MHz RF-EMF induces hyperactivity, autophagy and demyelination in the cortical neurons of mice.” Scientific Reports, vol. 7, no. 41129, 2017. found that RF-EMF exposure led to myelin sheath damage and hyperactivity-like behaviour in mice exposed to 835 MHz RF-EMF at a specific absorption rate (SAR) of 4.0 W/kg for 5 hours/day during 12 weeks.  Demyelination was induced in cortical neurons following prolonged RF-EMF exposure and suggests a potential cause of neurological or neurobehavioural disorders.    Full text https://www.nature.com/articles/srep41129.pdf

Number 3 – Redmayne M, Johansson O.  Could myelin damage from radiofrequency electromagnetic field exposure help explain the functional impairment electrohypersensitivity? A review of the evidence.  Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, vol. 17, no. 5, 2014, pp. 247-58.

“considers the evidence for an association between myelin integrity and exposure to low-intensity radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMFs) 

Overall, evidence from in vivo and in vitro and epidemiological studies suggests an association between RF-EMF exposure and either myelin deterioration or a direct impact on neuronal conduction, which may account for many electrohypersensitivity symptoms. The most vulnerable are likely to be those in utero through to at least mid-teen years, as well as ill and elderly individuals.”

Number 4 – Johansson ), Redmayne M, “Exacerbation of demyelinating syndrome after exposure to wireless modem with public hotspot”, Electromagnetic Biol Med 2016, 29:1-5 

This is a case study of a Colorado woman who experienced a return of her demyelination symptoms (seizures, vertigo, headaches, sleeping problems) following exposure to her neighbor’s (Xfinity) Home Wi-Fi Modem with Public Hotspot in August 2014.

After her neighbor replaced the modem with one without the hotspot feature, the seizures stopped immediately, and the other symptoms faded gradually, after which she was fine and again could sleep well. Later, when another neighbor obtained the same modem with activated hotspot, her symptoms returned.

A possible association between electrohypersensitivity, myelin integrity and exposure to low-intensity radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) has recently been proposed.  Since the West Nile Virus attacks both the nerve cells and the glial ones, one explanation to the above observed case effects is that the initial virus attack and the wireless modem’s RF-EMF affect the nervous system through the very same, or similar, avenues, and maybe both via the oligodendrocytes.  Full Text:  https://comitatotutelamonteporziocatone.files.wordpress.com/2016/09/johansson-redmayne-2016.pdf

“NY Times” Best Selling Author, Elana Amsterdam from Colorado shares a similar story — how high levels of wireless EMF in her ‘smart’ home triggered a recurrence of her Multiple Sclerosis symptoms in 2014.  https://elanaspantry.com/green-house-almost-killed/ 

She was diagnosed with MS in 2006 and was able to keep it under control with a healthy Paleo diet.  After moving into her new ‘smart’ home in 2014, her MS returned, and she ended up in the hospital, numb from the neck down.  She wasn’t recovering despite her best efforts.  In 2016, after doing research on the health effects of wireless radiation and making the connection that wireless radiation was causing her symptoms, she removed all wireless technology from her home and is now on the road to recovery.

Gliomas Increasing Worldwide – Data from England, US, Netherlands
In a study done in England looking at GBMs from 1995-2015   https://www.hindawi.com/journals/jeph/2018/7910754/ frontal lobe GBM increased from 533 to 1231, statistically significant increase in primary GBM tumours were seen, especially in frontal and temporal lobes of the brain, temporal lobe GBM increased from 334 to 994.  The increase was attributed to an environmental factor.
 
 
  • In the US, The National Cancer Institute reported that glioma incidence in the frontal lobe increased among young adults 20-29 years of age (Inskip et al., 2010).   The incidence of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), which accounts for about half of all gliomas, increased in the frontal and temporal lobes, and in the cerebellum among adults in the U.S. from 1992-2006 (Zada et al., 2012). 
  • data from The Netherlands. The black segment of each column tracks the incidence of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), the most aggressive and deadly type of brain tumors. While the total incidence of all types of brain tumors in The Netherlands rose at the rate of only about 0.7% per year, the increase in GBM was about 3.1% per year —that is, the incidence more than doubled over the period 1989-2010. (Follow the thin red line we superimposed on the histogram to track the trend.) This is a statistically significant increase. At the same time, the rate of all the other types of brain tumors went down; these changes are also significant. The higher incidence of GBMs is being masked by the lower rates of the other types of brain cancer.  
Risk of glioma from cell phone and cordless phone use

Three independent, case-control studies have found that long-term use of cell phones increases risk for glioma (Interphone Study Group, 2010Hardell et al, 2013Coureau et al, 2014). The only research to examine cordless phone use also found increased glioma risk with long-term use (Hardell et al, 2013). These studies include data from 13 nations: Australia, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden and the UK. After ten years of wireless phone use (i.e., cell phone plus cordless phone use), the risk of glioma doubles and after 25 years, the risk triples (Hardell et al, 2013).

Study Completed in 2017 showing that EMFs exacerbate allergies.

LDI (low dose immunotherapy) is using allergy drops or allergy shots to treat allergic reactions.

In 2017, British scientists showed after LDI treatment, calcium uptake into certain white blood cells is reduced, which may be the mechanism by which LDI works to reduce allergic reactions. In a study of 47 people, calcium levels in their blood cells were tested before and after exposure to electromagnetic fields.   Download the full text of the study:  https://www.degruyter.com/downloadpdf/j/jcim.ahead-of-print/jcim-2017-0156/jcim-2017-0156.pdf

Article on this study https://sciencediscoveries.degruyter.com/everyday-electric-field-exposure-increased-sensitivity-allergens/

Senior author Dr. Jean Monro, the Medical Director of the Breakspear Clinic in Hemel Hempstead, UK, explained their findings: “We found that exposure to everyday electric fields worsened the effect of allergens on calcium levels in lymphocytes”. In other words, calcium uptake into these cells was increased by electromagnetic exposure, but with low dose immunotherapy the levels of calcium influx were significantly reduced.

Lymphocytes are white blood cells that play a crucial role in the body’s immune system. Electric field exposure was found to be important in relation to several allergens, including formaldehyde, mercury, natural gas, nickel, nitrosamines, petrol/gas exhaust, salicylate, benzoate and metabisulfite. “Although we have found that low-dose immunotherapy can be an effective treatment for allergies, our most recent study suggests that patients may experience increased sensitivity to allergens as a result of exposure to everyday electric fields. These can be reduced by low-dose immunotherapy”.

The molecular mechanism involved relates to a theory by Professor Martin Pall, of Washington State University, in which he states that electromagnetic fields activate special calcium channels (VGCC’s) in cells, which then increases intracellular calcium. Following LDI treatment, the effect of sensitization to allergens by electromagnetic fields was reduced, therefore the authors state that low-dose immunotherapy is a successful treatment.

Read Dr. Pall’s paper that explains how calcium channels in cells are activated by EMFs: Electromagnetic fields act via activation of voltage-gated calcium channels to produce beneficial or adverse effects

Thus increase in intracellular concentrations of calcium leads to increased sensitivity reactions to allergens.

Increased sensitivity to allergens/allergies, which manifest as increased respiratory allergies or skin rashes, is one symptom of EHS, aka electromagnetic sensitivity. (The 2016 Guideline used in Europe to diagnose and treat EMF-related health problems is attached.)

The graphs below show the level of intracellular calcium in the cells before and after LDI treatment, and they all show the same general pattern – that intracellular calcium drops after LDI treatment without EMF exposure (red line) and with EMF exposure (green line).

For nitrosamines, After LDI treatment, the calcium levels with EMF exposure (green line) decrease, and are lower than what they were without EMF exposure before treatment.

However for nickel, although the calcium level drops after LDI treatment with EMF exposure and without EMF exposure,

With EMF exposure (green line), even after LDI treatment, the intracellular concentration of calcium (171) is higher than it is in the case of no exposure before treatment (152).
