Electromagnetic radiation
We are
bombarded with electromagnetic radiation from all kinds of sources.
Think of all the TV programs, radio programs, mobile phone calls and the
like that pass through your body every day. This is consequence of
modern life and there is little we can do to avoid it. The earth too has
a natural background radiation, but I suspect man has upped this
somewhat!
It's not
so much the lower frequency carrier waves, but more the higher data
frequencies that are of concern. These higher frequencies may resonate
with and impact on cells within the body.
It might
be prudent to minimise the impact of localised more intense high
frequency sources, for example from your mobile phone.
I know
that if I'm on the mobile for more than a few minutes I can feel the
impact of it, I don't need lots of research to confirm what I feel!
There are a few gadgets available to reduce this. Headsets that
incorporate an acoustic tube are now widely available. These allow the
mobile phone and radiation to be positioned away from the body. Check out the video
clips.
Personally
I don't use a microwave either. I never have done. The main reason for
this is that I have never seen the point of starting off with fibreless
processed food, destroying any remaining nutritional value and then
eating something that's far too hot in the middle and that is also
completely insipid. This is just a personal view, you might think
differently.

"We
are under continual attack from electromagnetic fields (EMFs) radiating
from power lines, household wiring, microwave ovens, computers,
televisions, clock radios, cellular phones, electric blankets and other
appliances. Researchers have correlated electropollution with increases
in cancer, birth defects, depression, learning disabilities, Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome, Alzheimer's disease, and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
The danger is real and with increasing use of electricity in our
environment it is one of the reasons why many scientists believe some
disease rates are on the rise. "
Cell
Phones and Cancer
"The links between cell phone radiation and cancer are being
established in the last few years. There is no final conclusion yet but
it took almost a century to prove the link between tobacco and lung
cancer. So let us look at some of the information available so far when
it comes to cell phone radiation dangers:
- This year the World Health Organization classified cell phones as
carcinogenic. While some tried to minimize the importance of this
conclusion it made all the conversation about cell phone dangers more
legitimate."
(If you have an IPHONE you might want to note the
points made in the above video clip.
Put the phone in "airplane mode" when not in use,
else, even when switched off, it may be used as a relaying hot spot for
other mobile phones in the area.
Keep the phone away from you when in use
Use the speaker function - or -
Use a wired headset - or -
Better still use a headset with an "acoustic exchange
tube" known as blue tube.)
