A recent study by the National Toxicology Program/National Institutes of Health (NTP/NIH) shows clear evidence of a causal link between cancer and exposure to wireless cell phone signals. Results from the $30 million NTP studies demonstrated that cell phone radiation caused Schwann cell cancers of the heart and brain gliomas in rats, as well as DNA damage in the brain. In NIH’s news release, NTP senior scientist John Bucher said, “We believe that the link between radio frequency radiation and tumors in male rats is real and the external experts agreed.” But, amazingly, the FDA says it disagrees with this carefully conducted, peer-reviewed study’s finding...

Washington – U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal is leading a campaign to determine whether new “5G” wireless technology is safe and is asking the federal government for proof the cutting edge radio frequency does not pose health risks – including cancer. On Monday, Blumenthal, D-Conn., a member of the Senate Commerce Committee, and Rep. Anna Eshoo, D-Calif., wrote to Federal Communications Commission Brendan Carr seeking information on how his agency has determined 5G technology is safe. “We need to know whether the radio frequencies can cause cancer,” Blumenthal said at a press conference in Hartford on Monday. The FCC did not have...

It’s no secret that sperm quality has been plummeting in recent times; over 50% in the last 50 years! Heat, unhealthy lifestyle habits, and environmental toxins contribute to this worsening crisis. However, something else may be flying under the radar. And possibly because it’s something that we can’t see. What are we missing? Male fertility is intersecting with a two-headed monster: the rise and increasing use of consumer electronics, and development of wireless technologies like WiFi routers, cell phone towers, and soon space satellites which would enable connection virtually anywhere on Earth.  Electronic devices use energy waves, or electromagnetic radiation (“EMR”), to...

Recently, scientists at the World Health Organisation announced that the agency would now list mobile phone use in the same “carcinogenic hazard” category as lead, engine exhaust, and chloroform. There have not been enough long-term studies to make a clear conclusion if radiation from smartphones is safe, but there was enough data to persuade the WHO of a possible connection. Smartphones use non-ionising radiation, which doesn’t damage DNA the way ionizing radiation does.  The cell phone radiation operates more like very low power microwaves, but nobody really likes to think of leaning their face on a low power microwave. If...

An Italian court has ruled a worker who developed a tumour after more than 15 years of intense phone usage will receive compensation in what is thought to be a world first. Italy's national insurance provider has been ordered to compensate the man with a lifelong payment usually only given to people who suffer serious harm in the workplace. The 57-year-old employee of national network Telecom began using the phone for work in 1995, coordinating other company technicians. After having used the phone “for four hours a day without any protection” for 15 years, Mr Romeo was no longer able to hear...
