How moblile phones and other electronic devices harm us?

In my previous article I linked to 2 reports where it showed use of these electronic devices can ruin our health. And to prove it, at comment section you can read about a real incident where a person was badly affected by constant use of cell phone and at last he died of brain tumour.

I again researched on this topic, becuase only providing the reports to spread the fear was not my goal, rather I wanted to create an awareness about this serious topic. I am watching with fear that new generation is addict of electronic products, especially cell phones. As today you get all in one packages in cell phones, ie camera, mp3, mp4, internet, and so on. And use of these products is increasing day by day. I was also unaware of the harmful effects of cell phones, unless I read an article at a site and researched about it.

So to make this topic more effective, I am here with some more reports, where you would be surprised to know the real dangers of these devices.

First come to our main topic, where we were talking about health dangers in mobile phone usage. We humans have been surrounded by electro-magnetic fields as part of the earth's envirenmnet. But difference is between the type of EMF waves. EMF's from mobile phones are of a low power, carry "information carrying waves" which work at a frequency our bodies are not aware of. They resonate our body's cells and cause adverse reactions, leading to cell proliferation which is a precursor of cancer. And the worst thing is that these effects happen in the brain, which is normally protected by the blood brain barrier.

Dr George Carlo, is an eminent epidemiologist who was given large research funds by mobile phone operators to prove that their products were safe. Unfortunately, he came back with a completely different picture. He discovered that regular mobile phone use releases an excess of free radicals, which ultimately increases the chances of tumor formation.

He is not the only scientist to discover the damage that’s being done at the DNA and cellular levels. A major institute in Germany – again sponsored by two mobile phone operators – found among regular phone users “disturbances of DNA replication”.

Another report:

Are EMFs Hazardous to Our Health? Dr. David Carpenter, Dean at the School of Public Health, State University of New York believes it is likely that up to 30% of all childhood cancers come from exposure to EMFs. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) warns "There is reason for concern" and advises prudent avoidance". Martin Halper, the EPA's Director of Analysis and Support says "I have never seen a set of epidemiological studies that remotely approached the weight of evidence that we're seeing with EMFs. Clearly there is something here."


From a biological point of view:

The Human Body contains electrolytes and ions, which are positively or negatively charged. The water molecule is a polar molecule - it has positive and negative charges separated by a dipole length. A water molecule has a positive and negative pole and is therefore, an electric dipole. As we are made up of approximately 65-70% water, electrolytes and ions, it follows that the human body has its own weak electromagnetic field and each of our cells has its own EM Field too. Basic science shows us this is so. It follows that strong and even weak Electromagnetic Fields emitted from any electrical or electronic equipment will interact with and affect the human body’s own weak electromagnetic fields, and, therefore, interfere with the body’s natural healing processes.
our health depends on balance being maintained in our cell’s electromagnetic field, that our cells store information in the form of electromagnetic oscillations (information within our DNA for e.g. is ‘electronically’ stored in this way) and information from incorrect or non endogenous oscillations (not of the body - EMF’s/ELF’s being typical examples) can be stored within our cells energy fields leading to disturbance, disorder and incoherence (loss of equilibrium - balance) which can lead to genetic damage, damage to our DNA, illness and disease. In other words, our own electromagnetic frequencies essential to our health, the repair, reproduction and replication of DNA can be altered by storing, or ‘taking on board’ information (oscillations) from other outside sources of energy such as electromagnetic and electrical radiation.
All biochemical functions (processes) are activated and regulated by our body’s own electromagnetic fields. The fact that magnetic fields enter our body’s own energy fields is well documented by biophysicists and can easily be measured. Electromagnetic frequencies are man-made and therefore unnatural, chaotic and disordered and biophysics has established that ‘Every kind of frequency combination which is not in order produces disease.’ Disease occurs through a disturbance of the electromagnetic field in the cells: they become disordered and incoherent.

Ill health is caused by the displacement of electrolytes/ions within the body and by interfering with the body’s natural way of communicating (neurological system) and maintaining homeostasis - balance. This will weaken the defense mechanism of the body as the body expends energy attempting to redress this imbalance. If we cannot get away from these EMF fields because we live within their field of influence, the body will be unable to correct this electrical and biochemical imbalance and, as the science of Biophysics has proven that we only become ill when the defense mechanism of the body is weakened, it follows that we will undoubtedly become ill as a direct result of living or working within these EMR fields.
basic understanding of physics is that EMF’s do weaken our energy fields and this will lead to some form of illness and disease in humans. Children, in particular, with their developing immune systems and ill or sick people are more prone to the effects of EM Radiation, and are, therefore, at risk the most.

BRIEF SYNOPSIS OF THE DANGERS OF EMF’S AND MOBILE PHONE MASTS AND HOW THEY CAN AFFECT OUR HEALTH

Use of electronic and digital products causing health problems

Use of electronic products is enormously increasing, but as research is showing there are some bad effects of regular use of these products. I am quoting here 2 reports about the use of laptop and mobile phones, as these are the favorites of young generation.

I just want you to bring awareness about  risk involved at frequent use of these useful devices.

According to report "Dr. Yefim Sheynkin, an associate professor of urology at SUNY--Stony Brook told Reuters, "the increase in scrotal temperature is significant enough to cause changes in sperm parameters. It is very difficult to predict how long the computer can be used safely. It may not be at all, if the testicular temperature goes up high within a very short period of time."

Particularly at risk, says Sheynkin, are younger men, especially if they use a laptop computer several times a day over the course of time. "Long-term use may have a detrimental effect on their reproductive health," he said.
To arrive at these conclusions, Sheynkin recruited 29 healthy volunteers between the ages of 21 and 35 to determine what kind of effect using a laptop computer had on scrotal temperature.
The volunteers’ scrotal temperatures rose over two degrees centigrade when the laptop computers were merely placed on the volunteers’ laps. Once the laptop computers were turned on, the scrotal temperatures increased by 2.6 degrees C on the left side and 2.8 degrees C on the right side.

2nd report is about health risks due to radiation from mobile phones.

Eurobarometer, a programme within the EU took opinions from across the EU. Of Britons, 65 percent believed that mobile phones affected their health and 71 percent felt that mobile phone masts affected their health. The European results were73 percent and 76 percent.

For over 10 years, a Scandinavian study has been checking for health risks connected to mobile phone use. They report that there is an increase in the chance of getting brain tumors and that radiation from mobiles can kill brain cells, which could mean that the youth may develop senile symptoms by the time they are forty."

So these reports are indication of the risk involed in long term use of all electrical devices, which produce radiation. This radiation is very harmful, and if we cannot avoid the use of these products, we can limit the use to our extreme needs.

Teens are also at risk , because they don't think about limitations or boundaries when they use these digital products. In this condition moderate use is the safest option for all of us.
