How Do EMFs REALLY Effect Your Body?

BODY IMPACT


EMF radiation has been known to cause brain fog, fatigue, headaches, increased stress hormones, disrupted-melatonin-induced insomnia, suppressed immune function, immune system imbalances, neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders, Alzheimer’s Disease, reproductive organ damage, lower fertility, cardiac effects on electrical control of the heart, DNA damage, altered gene expression, tumors, and a greater risk of Leukemia and other cancers.

Newer studies have also reported abnormal gene transcription, genotoxicity and single-and double-strand DNA damage, neurotoxicity in humans and animals, carcinogenicity in humans, serious impacts on human and animal sperm morphology and function, effects on offspring behavior, and effects on brain and cranial bone development in the offspring of animals that are exposed to cell phone radiation during pregnancy.

Children, sadly, are much more susceptible to the effects of EMF radiation for various reasons including under-developed cellular protection and a thinner skull that allows for a greater penetration and absorption of radiation into the brain. EMFs:

  1. Attack our nervous systems including our brains leading to widespread neurological/neuropsychiatric effects and possibly many other effects. This nervous system attack is of great concern.

  2. Attack our endocrine (that is hormonal) systems. In this context, the main things that make us functionally different from single celled creatures are our nervous system and our endocrine systems – even a simple planaria worm needs both of these. Thus, the consequences of the disruption of these two regulatory systems is immense, such that it is a travesty to ignore these findings.

  3. Produce oxidative stress and free radical damage, which have central roles in essentially all chronic diseases.

  4. Attack the DNA of our cells, producing single strand and double strand breaks in cellular DNA and oxidized bases in our cellular DNA. These in turn produce cancer and also mutations in germ line cells which produce mutations in future generations.

  5. Produce elevated levels of apoptosis (programmed cell death), events especially important in causing both neurodegenerative diseases and infertility.

  6. Lower male and female fertility, lower sex hormones, lower libido and increased levels of spontaneous abortion and, as already stated, attack the DNA in sperm cells.

  7. Produce excessive intracellular calcium [Ca2+] and excessive calcium signaling.

  8. Attack the cells of our bodies to cause cancer. Such attacks are thought to act via 15 different mechanisms during cancer causation.

There is also a substantial literature showing that EMFs are associated with other effects including

  • life threatening cardiac effects.

  • very early onset dementias, including Alzheimer’s, digital and other types of dementias

  • EMF exposures in utero and shortly after birth may cause ADHD and autism

HOW EMFS AFFECT EACH ONE OF YOUR CELLS


Scientists have discovered that EMFs from cell phones, Wi-Fi routers, and cell towers activate countless microscopic sensors that are found on the surface of every one of your 70 trillion cells.


When these “voltage sensors” are exposed to foreign EMF signals, your cells get tricked into allowing large amounts of calcium to flow inside…


Normally, calcium is a healthy mineral — but too much calcium inside the cell is the equivalent of pouring gas on a fire and triggers a range of negative health effects.


Put simply, EMFs are an added stress to every single cell in your body — whether you personally feel EMF-related symptoms or not.


Just like you probably opt to eat whole, natural foods as free of toxic pesticides as possible… aiming to minimize your personal EMF exposure is a great action step for your health.


In his 2013 groundbreaking paper, Dr. Martin Pall has shown that extremely low levels of EMFs can activate the cells’ voltage gated calcium channels, leading to 14 distinct downstream biological effects such as oxidative stress, DNA breaks, melatonin depletion, infertility and cancer.


A FOCUS ON MILLENNIAL HEALTH TRENDS


BLUE CROSS BLUE SHIELD – THE HEALTH OF AMERICA REPORT

The Health of Millennials Published April 24, 2019


Nearly 73 million people in the U.S. are millennials—people born between 1981 and 1996 and who were 21 to 36 years old in 2017. This report focuses on the 55 million millennial Americans that are commercially insured.1


According to the Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) Health Index, in 2017, millennials had an average BCBS Health Index of 95.1, meaning millennials as a group were living at about 95% of their optimal health.2 However, further data analysis reveals that older millennials (age 34-36) have higher prevalence rates for nearly all of the top 10 conditions than did Generation X members when they were in the same age range (age 34-36). With younger generations facing health challenges at earlier ages than previous generations, measuring the health of millennials is critical to improving this generation’s long-term health and wellness.
