Alzheimer's and EMF Connection?

A Switzerland University study reported a month ago that people living within 50 meters (about 50 yards) of a high-voltage power line were more likely to die with Alzheimer's disease. After 15 years of living near a 220-380 kV power line, the odds of dying with Alzheimer's were double the expected rate, according to the report.

This is not the first study making the connection between Alzheimer's and EMF exposure. Back in 1994, a joint U.S.–Finnish team has linked occupational EMF exposures to the disease, and the association appears to be quite strong. In a paper presented at the 4th International Conference on Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Disorders in Minneapolis, Dr. Eugene Sobel of the University of Southern California (USC) School of Medicine in Los Angeles reported a series of significant relative risks that are, he said, higher than those reported for leukemia and other types of cancer. Seamstresses who use industrial sewing machines appeared to be particularly vulnerable. Dr. Sobel just last year concluded in a review for the Bioinitiative Report that there is "strong epidemiological evidence" that magnetic fields are a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease.

Boston Red Sox Ace Pitcher Wears the Q-Link

We were delighted to discover a picture of Red Sox pitcher Josh Beckett wearing a Q-Link pendant: http://papelblog.blogspot.com/2006/08/i-pride-myself-in-reaching-new-lows-of.html

We've also seen him wearing it again and again while pitching during the ALCS series! He's worn it so much, that it has created a lot of buzz around the Q-Link. More articles are being written all the time. Here's one from the Seattle Times:

This comes as no total surprise as athletes find that wearing the Q-Link pendant helps them maintain nerves and focus during high pressure situations. Professional golfers like them, and so do other sports elite.

Dr. George Carlo Explains Mechanism of Harm from RF Radiation

Dr. George Carlo presents the latest findings that reveal how the information-carrying radio waves from cell phones and other wireless technology are causing biological harm. Dr. Carlo is head of the Safe Wireless Initiative formed to educate the public about the dangers of electromagnetic radiation (EMR). He is also the former chief scientist of the wireless industry's largest safety research project which ended in findings at odds with the industry's agenda.

The video below was taken during his talk to the Irish Doctors Environmental Association (IDEA) in Dublin, Ireland (Feb 2007). Dr. Carlo explains the initial difficulty in finding the correlation between the variety of symptoms experienced by people and wireless radiation, but that the mechanism has now been determined.

In a nutshell, the cells regard the information-carrying radio waves as unrecognizable foreign toxins. This causes the cell membranes to harden and shut down the transport channels between cells. As a result, nutrients don't get in and waste products don't get out. Among these waste products are free radicals that cause disruption of the cellular respiratory function. The cells become further energy-deficient, eventually triggering programmed cell death. The free radicals also interfere with DNA repair, a factor in the development of micronuclei and tumor formation. (Watch the video to get the full flavor.)

Dr. Carlo mentions 3 intervention methods that have been found to counter these effects. These methods target: 1) the cell membrane recognition response, 2) the intercellular communication response, and 3) repair of cellular damage already done. As an example of the first intervention method, he mentions the Molecular Resonance Effect Technology (MRET), a passive noise-field technology that can be used on cell phones. MRET superimposes low frequencies resembling the resonant frequencies of the living cells on the radio waves, making them no longer seen as a foreign invader by the cell membrane. (See BIOPRO Cell Chip for an MRET-powered device.)

But as Dr. Carlo emphasizes, these interventions won't do much unless the background radiation is also eliminated. Thus he advocates the replacement of the wireless infrastructure with fiber optics, for example. This is also one reason why we recommend implementing as many layers of intervetion as possible. Applying Dr. Carlo's 3 intervention methods, you may 1) use the BIOPRO chips with MRET to target the cell membrane protein recognition response, 2) wear the Q-Link pendant to restore and maintain intercellular communications, and 3) take antioxidants to neutralize the free radicals and help reverse any damage that have already been done to the cells.

Here's the video of Dr. Carlo's talk:

Electrosensitivity: Is it Real?

Electrosensitivity is defined as "unhealthy sensitivity (or sensitivities) to a particular source of electricity, for example mobile phones, computers, power lines or even minor electrical equipment. Symptoms are wide-ranging and can include skin problems, headaches, fatigue, fainting, light sensitivity, heart problems and much more. Electrical HyperSensitivity is a name given to those who are severely affected." (Electrosensitivity.org)

While governments and the medical establishment are slow to recognize this condition as real and not merely psychological, there are sufferers around the world whose lives have been devastated because they could not function in our highly technological world. Sunday Express in the UK recently published dramatic stories of such electrosensitive individuals in an article called "Using Wi-fi has Cost Me My Life."

Here at EMF-Health.com we talk to quite a few people with this condition asking us for help. While our flagship product and primary recommendation is always the QLink to help strengthen the biofield from the onslaught of EMF/EMR from all sources, we also suggest multiple layers of protection for maximum protection. The BioPro Cell Chip, for example, has a patented technology that is device-specific and addresses the EMR emitted by cell phones, PDAs and Bluetooth. Another layer we always mention, specifically to help reverse existing cellular damage due to EMR exposure, is the use of antioxidants (particularly SOD, catalase, glutathione, and Coq10). EMR exposure is known to cause buildup of free radicals that have been shown in studies to result in both cellular dysfunction, and in interference with normal DNA repair processes. (See Dr. Gerald Goldberg's book, Would You Put Your Head in a Microwave Oven, for more about nutritional intervention.)

Electromagnetic radiation is not going to go away. In fact, it's only going to get worse. Don't wait to take action only when something has gone wrong. It is always wiser to take a proactive and preventive approach.

Cell Phone Radiation Hidden Dangers

Life Extension magazine published an excellent in-depth article on "The Hidden Dangers of Cell Phone Radiation." The article looks at why cell phones are dangerous and features Dr. George Carlo, the medical scientist who first headed the multimillion-dollar study on cell phone safety funded by the telecommunications industry. Dr. Carlo's research led to findings that weren't to the industry's liking, and for years has battled to bring the truth about cell phone dangers to the public. Along the way the industry has gone on its way to discredit him and his findings, as well as other scientists in the field.

For example, do you know that the cell phone was allowed to reach the market without pre-market testing? The FDA and other government regulatory agencies were pressured by the communications industry to do so based on the low microwave power of the cell phone. Today DNA damage, brain dysfunction, brain tumors, and other conditions such as sleep disorders and headaches are being linked to cell phone use. And experts such as Dr. Carlo reveal that there may not be any safe level of electromagnetic radiation exposure. Scary, considering there are over two billion cell phone users worldwide daily getting exposed to this danger.

This is a proverbial David vs. Goliath story, as Dr. Carlo tackles the billion-dollar industry head on. Early on, threats to his career, character assassinations, and to top it all, his house mysteriously getting burned down, only made Dr. Carlo more resolved to warn the public. He wrote a book detailing his story and his findings. Based on the book, a number of lawsuits were brought against the industry, and insurance carriers began excluding cell phone-related health risks in their coverage.

Cell Phone Tower Near You

Two studies included in the Institute of Science in Society report (05-24-07) gave clear indications that living close to a cell phone transmitter may lead to increased health risks. A German study found a threefold increase in cancer rates among population living within 400m (about 1300 feet) of a transmitter. And an Israeli study found a fourfold increase for people living within 350m (1148 feet). Women appeared to have been affected the most in both cases.

With the proliferation of the cell phone and wireless technology, it is becoming increasingly difficult to steer clear of the information-carrying radio waves. As previously posted in this blog, you can find out the location of cell phone towers and antennas in your area by visiting antennasearch.com.
