Electromagnetic Fields and Your Health

 

Author: Lizzie Scott

In today's lifestyle, you are exposed to man-made electromagnetic fields. The growing demands of ever-changing technologies and changes in social behavior have created more negative electromagnetic fields around you.

There is a growing concern over possible health hazards from low-frequency electromagnetic fields.

Electromagnetic fields (EMF) above certain levels can trigger biological effects! It is everywhere - computers, cell phones, fax machines, copy machines, television sets, stereo systems, air conditioners, microwave ovens and other electrical devices.

Reported symptoms of exposure to high levels of electromagnetic fields include headaches, anxiety, depression, nausea, fatique and loss of libido!

Here is a short list of reported events that indicates the potential hazards of EMF fields:

- In 1972, Soviet researchers linked electromagnetic fields with low grade health problems such as fatigue and headaches.

- In 1977, Robert Becker, physician and biophysicist Andrew Marino testified before the New York State Public Service Commission about the results of their experiment that showed negative health effects due to exposure to ELF fields.

- In 1979, Nancy Wertheimer an epidemiologist and physicist Ed Leeper published a study that showed a statistical link between childhood cancers and the proximity of certain types of high-current power lines to the home.

- In 1982, a Washington State study examined the data for the deaths of 438,000 workers in the State occurring between 1950 and 1979. The results of the study showed that leukemia deaths were elevated in 10 out of 11 occupations where the workers were exposed to ELF fields.

- In 1986, Dr. Bernard Tribukait, a professor of radio biology at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm Sweden, reported that the fetuses of mice exposed to sawtooth electromagnetic fields had a greater incidence of congenital malformation than unexposed mice. The sawtooth waveform is a typical waveform generated by monitors and TV's.

- In 1988, the Maryland Department of Health and Hygiene found an unusually high rate of fatal brain cancer among men employed in electrical occupations.

- In 1989, John Hopkins University found an elevated risk of all cancers among New York Telephone Company cable splicers.

- In 1990, David Savitz, an epidemiologist at the University of North Carolina, determined through a study that pregnant woman who used electric blankets have children who have a 30% increased risk of cancer as compared to children whose mothers didn't use electric blankets.

Those are more than enough reasons to reduce the electromagnetic fields around you!
