Image Credit: sxc.hu Is radiation from cell phones, power lines, cell towers, computer monitors, and normal everyday electronics really a cause of cancer, leukemia, birth defects, heart problems, and many more illnesses? The answer is yes! Are doctors talking about EMF (electromagnetic frequencies) or have concerns at all? These following doctors have shown themselves or been involved with the scientific research showing multiple effects on the body from such devices and environments. Dr. George Carlo in the United States was given 28.5 million dollars from the telecommunication industry in 1993-1995 to research the ill effects from cell phone usage if any. His findings concluded that brain and auditory never cancers were directly attributable to cell phone usage. He stated that legal litigation is the only way we are going to be able to affect the type of change that will protect consumers.

Dr. Nachman Brautbar, the leading doctor for the Erin Brockovich case which the Julia Roberts movie was made about, was the first doctor in U.S. history to stand up in front of a United States courtroom and report his findings of cell phone usage being the reason for Florida resident, Sheila Price, to have brain cancer form from her extensive use of cell phones while at her daily job. This case was rewarded in favor of Sheila Price who’s new life dealing with cancer is a reminder of what cell phones can do.

Dr. Neil Cherry, of New Zealand, proved that radiation from any device creating an electromagnetic frequency of 2.5-3 milligauss will show the destroying effect of melatonin. This chemical is created by the brain to heal and repair daily radical pair damages to cells that we obtain from everyday devices like computers, televisions, and more. This study was performed on breast cells and other bodily cells.

Dr. Olle Johansson, professor at the Experimental Dermatology Unit, Department of Neuroscience, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden has shown in multiple papers released since the 1990’s that leukemia, skin cancers, seizures, and learning disabilities can be directly related to EMF exposure especially those considered EMF sensitive.

Maria Feychting of the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden worked on the Lahkola study of Jan.2007. She reported a higher incidence of gliomas (brain tumors) on the same side of the head the phone was used after ten or more years of exposure. This is the same criteria used by the European Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified Health Risks for which the strongest association was found for acoustic neuromas.

Dr. Lennart O Hardell was apart of the epidemiological studies of long-term cell phone users. His work points to a "consistent pattern" of increased risks of acoustic neuromas and brain tumors. This was reported on April 4th ,2007 in a paper from the Occupational and Environmental Medicine website. Also on Jan. 26th, 2007 a article from Interphone International Study Group, (funded and sponsored by the European Union, the World Health Organization, and various other groups) stated the same findings.Dr Anders Ahlbom on Jan. 24th 2004, Swedish Interphone studies presented the following information. Conclusions: Our findings do not indicate an increased risk of acoustic neuroma related to short-term mobile phone use after a short latency period. However, our data suggest an increased risk of acoustic neuroma associated with mobile phone use of at least 10 years' duration.

Dr. Gerald Draper of Oxford University in 2004, researched and generated a paper for the Department of Health concerning power lines and its relation to leukemia. In the results he states that children living within 100 meters of overhead cables are more likely to suffer from leukemia and that powerlines account for 20-30 of the 500 cases of childhood leukaemia in Britain each year. A Japanese study headed by Dr. Michinori Kabuto showed in 2004 that overall exposures to power frequency magnetic fields (EMF) in residential areas, was the cause in many cases of childhood leukemia in Japan.

Dr. Ashok Agarwal of the Cleveland Ohio Clinic, in a 2007 study showed that the use of cell phones decrease the semen quality in men by decreasing the sperm count, motility, viability, and normal morphology. The decrease in sperm parameters was dependent on the duration of daily exposure to cell phones and independent of the initial semen quality.

There are thousands of doctors and even more scientific papers now from around the world that support these facts. The governments and companies responsible for relaying this information to the public have yet to fulfill their role in this matter.

There are also hospitals on two continents now that you can get tested and treated for being sensitive to EMF or from other damages occured. If you have questions or concerns you can get more EMF facts and answers at http://www.emfscience.com. Comments (16)
