Cell phone RISKS

YOU DON'T DESERVE BRAIN CANCER -- YOU DESERVE THE FACTS

By Amy Worthington (mailto:observer@...)

Some people appear to have an almost pathological emotional

attachment to their cell phones and there is a fascinating

suggestion that cell radiation pulses might actually be addictive to

the human brain. We can't save those who would rather die than

switch. But ethics compelled us to ensure that all reasonable

people have access to the basic scientific facts.

Your cell phone is a microwave transmitter and it should bear a

cancer warning, Microwave energy oscillates at millions to billions

of cycles per second. The Journal of Cellular Biochemistry reports

that these frequencies cause cancer and other diseases by

interfering with cellular DNA and its repair mechanisms. Microwave

promotes rapid cell aging. Italian scientists have recently

demonstrated that cell phone radiation makes cancerous cells grow

aggressively. Cordless phones marked 900 megahertz or 2.4

gigahertz emits the same dangerous microwave radiation as cell

phones.

The connection between microwave exposure and cancer has been

documented for years. During the Cold War, the Soviets irradiated

the U.S. Embassy in Moscow, Russia, with low level, twin-beam

microwave radiation. Two successive ambassadors developed

leukemia. Other staffers also developed cancer, or their blood

showed DNA damage, which precedes cancer.

Research by University of Washington professor Dr. Henry Lai

shows brain cells are clearly damaged by microwave levels far

below the U.S. government's 'safety' guidelines. Dr. Lai notes that

even tiny doses of radio frequency can cumulate over time and

lead to harmful effects. He warns that public exposure to radiation

from wireless transmitters 'should be limited to a minimum.'

Motorola advises consumers to avoid pointing a cellular antenna

toward exposed parts of the body. But independent tests show that

cell phones can also leak huge amounts of radiation from the

keypad and mouthpiece. This radiation deeply penetrates brain, ear

and eye tissues, which are especially susceptible to microwave

damage. Belt clip cases allow cell phones to deliver radiation to the

liver or kidney areas when a wired, hands-free earpiece is used.

Recent studies confirm that cell and cordless phone microwave can:

.. Damage nerves in the scalp

.. Cause blood cells to leak hemoglobin

.. Cause memory loss and mental confusion

.. Cause headaches and induce extreme fatigue

.. Create joint pain, muscle spasms and tremors

.. Create burning sensation and rash on the skin

.. Alter the brain's electrical activity during sleep

.. Induce ringing in the ears, impair sense of smell

.. Precipitate cataracts, retina damage and eye cancer

.. Open the blood-brain barrier to viruses and toxins

.. Reduce the number and efficiency of white blood cells

.. Stimulate asthma by producing histamine in mast cells

.. Cause digestive problems and raise bad cholesterol levels

.. Stress the endocrine system, especially pancreas, thyroid,

ovaries, testes

In 1993, the telecom industry committed $25 million dollars for a

series of research projects designed to prove that cell phones are

safe. The studies proved just the opposite. They proved that

federal microwave exposure standards are dangerously inadequate.

Cell damage and tumors can be easily induced in the lab at about

one third of the FCC's exposure guidelines.

The telecom boys panicked. They and their lackey politicians and

federal regulators decided the only lucrative thing to do was to LIE

and DENY. Despite damning evidence, the FDA still prevaricates:

'There is no reason to conclude that there are health risks posed by

cell phones to consumers.' Meantime, the telecom industry has

been pressing to INCREASE BY MORE THAN 10 TIMES the

allowable human exposure to cell phone radiation!

Luckily, Dr. Carlo headed up the industry's study project.

He presents the shocking facts in his book, Cell Phones: Invisible

Hazards in the Wireless Age: An Insider's Alarming Discoveries

about Cancer and Genetic Damage (Carroll and Graf, 2001). A

summary of Dr. Carlo's book is this: Cell phones are hot, adequate

protective regulations are naught, and Americans are being 'fried'

so that the deceitful telecom industry can rake it in. It's dirty

business as usual, and the longer the industry can con the public,

the more billions it collects.

On June 16, 2002, CBS aired a Sixty Minutes segment which

confirmed the telecom industry is about as grungy as it gets. CBS

producers accused major phone service providers of cheating,

scamming, forging signatures, switching phone service without

permission and lying about charges. The attorney general of

Connecticut stated that despite millions of dollars in fines each year,

these companies remain incorrigible. Should we trust this industry

with our brain tissues and our very lives?

Microwave to the head is extremely hazardous to children. Parents

in some European nations are now warned to keep children away

from cell phones. A University of Utah researcher found the younger

the child, the more radiation is absorbed by the brain. Spanish

researchers have shown that cell phones can alter electrical activity

of a child's brain for hours, causing drastic mood changes and

possible behavior and learning disabilities. Scientists fear that cell

phone radiation could damage human embryos.

Pregnant women are advised to be wary.

A cell phone must greatly increase its field strength to maintain

communications within the metallic cage of an auto. Thus, the effect

of microwave radiation inside a vehicle is especially intense.

Volkswagen of Europe has warned that cell phone usage inside a car

can be 'injurious to health due to the extremely high electromagnetic

fields generated.'

Insurance studies in England showed that an average driver talking

on a cell is actually more impaired in function and reaction time than

a drunk. Finland's Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority reports that

one hour of exposure to mobile phone radiation can cause human

cells to shrink. Researchers believe this is due to increased protein

activity, an indicator of cell damage. What an unstable world needs

now is a global population afflicted with incredible shrinking brains!

Brain cancer rates in USA have increased by 25% since 1975.

In 2001, 185,000 Americans were diagnosed with some form of brain

cancer. A grade four brain tumor can grow from the size of a grape

to tennis ball size in just 4 months. Brain tumors are almost always

fatal and most people die within 6-12 months after diagnosis.

On April 7, 2002, Sixty Minutes aired a fascinating report on brain

cancer, explaining that scientists are unsure why incidence of the

disease is growing so exponentially.

Ironically, the segment was followed by a Sprint ad, which advised

parents that the best way to keep track of teenagers is to connect

them to a cell phone. While researchers say that radical damage to

the brain can occur within the first few minutes of conversation,

telecom ads encourage customers to spend many hours on the

phone each month. Those blazing, full-page cell phone ads in

newspapers and magazines must be the reason cell phone dangers

are almost never discussed in the mainstream media.

An excellent resource tool is Kane's book Cellular

Telephone Russian Roulette (Vantage Press, 2001). As a

telecommunications expert, Kane presents an impressive

collection of studies showing that both government agencies and

cell phone manufacturers KNEW YEARS AGO that cell phone

radiation at present exposure levels is dangerous to human health.

He notes that cell phones would be rendered useless if their RF

emissions were reduced to safe levels.

Reports of illness from heavy cell phone usage and from living or

working close to powerful RF transmitters are synchronous with

numerous cancer-related lawsuits now being filed against the cell

phone industry. The insurance industry sees big trouble ahead.

Underwriters for Lloyd's of London refuse to insure phone

manufacturers against damage to users' health. Cell phones are

today what tobacco was 40 years ago.
