Download or read book Cancer and EMF Radiation written by Brandon LaGreca and published by Empowered Patient Press. This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive guide on the contribution of electromagnetic fields to cancer formation. Review the science (over 60 academic references) and learn how test for EMFs, the best meters to buy, and strategies to shield, mitigate, or avoid harmful exposure. “Brandon LaGreca has done an extraordinary job of articulating the science underlying the EMF health effects issue, the different types of EMFs that are ubiquitous in our world, and the many steps that we can take to begin cleaning up our electromagnetic environment.” —Charles Keen, EMF Services, LLC Bonus afterword content: Find out what questions to ask when hiring an EMF inspector, which providers to avoid, and how to select the best meter for testing a home or office yourself. Cancer and EMF Radiation details the science showing DNA damage from nonionizing EMFs, mechanisms of action leading to cancer formation from EMF exposure, and practical strategies to protect you and your family. Four corroborating lines of evidence suggest EMFs are a far more significant risk factor for the development of a number of cancers than previously thought: 1. Experimental research showing DNA damage from EMF exposure 2. Long-term epidemiological studies on cancer development from EMF exposure 3. Mechanistic research on the effects of EMFs on melatonin and calcium channels 4. Research from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services National Toxicology Program documenting “clear evidence” of increased cancer growth from EMF radiation in animal models Learn about these sources of EMFs: 1. Microwave radiation—radiofrequency fields from mobile phones, smart meters, and Wi-Fi networks 2. Low-frequency EMFs—AC electric and magnetic fields from household wiring and connected devices 3. Voltage transients—higher-frequency harmonics in the electrical grid known as dirty electricity Protect yourself and your family from EMFs with three practical and actionable strategies: 1. Avoid: Properly measure EMFs to determine safe exposure. 2. Remediate: Change lighting and alter electrical circuits to remove voltage transients. 3. Shield: Employ technologies that effectively block EMF transmission into the body.

Download or read book Possible Health Effects of Exposure to Residential Electric and Magnetic Fields written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1997-03-18 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can the electric and magnetic fields (EMF) to which people are routinely exposed cause health effects? This volume assesses the data and draws conclusions about the consequences of human exposure to EMF. The committee examines what is known about three kinds of health effects associated with EMF: cancer, primarily childhood leukemia; reproduction and development; and neurobiological effects. This book provides a detailed discussion of hazard identification, dose-response assessment, exposure assessment, and risk characterization for each. Possible Health Effects of Exposure to Residential Electric and Magnetic Fields also discusses the tools available to measure exposure, common types of exposures, and what is known about the effects of exposure. The committee looks at correlations between EMF exposure and carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, neurobehavioral effects, reproductive and developmental effects, effects on melatonin and other neurochemicals, and effects on bone healing and stimulated cell growth.

Download or read book Biological Effects of Power Frequency Electric and Magnetic Fields written by Office of Technology Assessment United S and published by The Minerva Group, Inc.. This book was released on 2002-06 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report was prepared by the Office of Technology Assessment of the United States Congress to review the health effects of high-voltage transmission lines. For about two decades, there has been some concern about the health effects of electric and magnetic fields produced by transmission lines. Recent studies have heightened this concern. Health effects research is still preliminary and inconclusive, but a growing number of studies suggest that under certain circumstances even relatively weak electric and magnetic fields can produce biologic changes.This report discusses the present state of knowledge on the health effects of low-frequency electric and magnetic fields and describes current U. S. funding levels and research programs. Also, the report provides information on regulatory activity, including existing and proposed field exposure standards.

Download or read book Overpowered written by Martin Blank, PhD and published by Seven Stories Press. This book was released on 2014-09-16 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Keys, wallet, cell phone . . . ready to go! Cell phones have become ubiquitous fixtures of twenty-first-century life—suctioned to our ears and stuck in our pockets. Yet, we’ve all heard whispers that these essential little devices give you brain cancer. Many of us are left wondering, as Maureen Dowd recently asked in the New York Times, “Are cells the new cigarettes?” Overpowered brings readers, in accessible and fascinating prose, through the science, indicating biological effects resulting from low, non-thermal levels of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation (levels considered safe by regulatory agencies), coming not only from cell phones, but many other devices we use in our homes and offices every day. Dr. Blank arms us with the information we need to lobby government and industry to keep ourselves and our families safe.

Download or read book EMF Book written by Mark A. Pinsky and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2009-10-31 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives facts about the dangers, revealing that most of us are exposed to radiation and electromagnetic fields everyday. Electromagnetic fields and radiation are everywhere - near power lines, computers, radio and television signals, microwave ovens, toasters, alarm clocks and everyday electrical appliances. The media are warning of the possible hazards of EMFs and EMR and recent studies suggest that they cause leukaemia in children and breast and brain cancer in adults. It advises which levels to worry about, and how to minimize the risks. It is also a sourcebook for citizens seeking action from utility companies, employers, manufacturers and governmental agencies.

Download or read book Epidemiology of Electromagnetic Fields written by Martin Roosli and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives an overview of the epidemiological methods used to research the effects of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) on human health. The first part of the book introduces epidemiological concepts and principles, providing appropriate examples and tips for practical usage. The second part details the state of scientific knowledge for some controversial issues in EMF research, while the third part considers how novelty, the steep increase of radiofrequency (RF) EMF exposure from wireless communications, and other challenges affect risk assessment today.
