THE controversy over the report on the “Interphone” study released recently has rekindled my interest about the dangers of EMF – electromagnetic fields. My main interest is the effects on cancer, as I continue to be perplexed by the relentless increase in cancers, and our failure to fight this disease.
Newsweek magazine (http://www.newsweek.com/2010/08/05/will-this-phone-kill-you.html) had this to say about the report: “Interphone, organized by the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer, was the largest (10,751 subjects, ages 30 to 59, in 13 countries), longest (10 years), most expensive (as much as $30 million), and most labor-intensive (48 scientists) study of its kind. That boded well for producing credible conclusions. Instead, Interphone found that using a cell phone decreased the risk of glioma (primary brain cancer) by 19%.
"Even in people who had used cell phones for more than 10 years, there was no increased risk of brain tumors, with the exception of those who said they had yakked away for more than 1,640 hours. And the 40% increased risk of glioma in this group came with a caveat that is emblematic of this field: this elevated risk, the scientists warned, may be an artifact of 'biases and error', not real."
The generally contradictory findings – apparent protective effects at most doses and elevated cancer risk at the highest exposure – point to the challenge scientists has had in figuring out what to make with the data collected. Furthermore, according to The Daily Mail, the Interphone study was substantially funded by the mobile phone industry, and many do question the neutrality of the study.
FusionExcel Scalar Energy Technology (SET) is leading the way in Energy Medicine innovations with the introduction of its new Quantum Shield . This revolutionary Quantum Shield offers the most advanced technology to address stress where you live, work and play. Its universal application means the same Quantum Shield can be applied on all your electronic tech-gadgets (wired or wireless), household appliances, etc. – all of which emit various levels of electromagnetic fields (EMF) or electromagnetic radiation (EMR). Research has shown prolonged and repeated exposure to aggressive EMF and EMR causes a measurable stress response and negative shifts in the body’s key energetic systems such as the bio electric field. It also triggers a series of troubling biochemical responses. Studies have linked electro pollution to health concerns like fatigue and hyper-tension, as well as potentially much more dangerous conditions.
