Do You Have Microwave, Cell & WiFi Sickness?

http://omega. twoday.net/ stories/3277817/

Paul Raymond Doyon

 

Many people have a hard time fathoming that something that they

cannot see, touch, smell, taste or hear - sense with the five

senses - can harm them so much. But if people did really know the

facts regarding the dangers of cell phones and WiFi and the masts

that emit a pervasive level of microwave radiation, would they still

be willing to use them? Would they still be willing to allow

the antennas to be built in vicinity of their homes, work places,

schools, and hospitals?

 

Dr. George Carlo, who used to run a multi-million dollar research

program for the cell phone industry and went public regarding the

dangers posed by cell phones, uses the analogy of putting a frog in

water. If you put a frog in boiling water, it will jump out.

However, if you put a frog in cold water and gradually heat the

water, you can cook the frog because the frog's body will adjust

to the slight changes in temperature and it will not notice it is

being cooked. Well, the same thing might be happening to an

unsuspecting public - a public that has not been informed about the

real dangers of microwave radiation from cell phones, WiFi and other

high-frequency- radiation emitting devices and antennas.

 

The truth of the matter, your cell phone and your WiFi might very

well indeed be making you and those around you sick! Please read on!

 

1.Symptoms known to be caused by exposure to microwave radiation:

insomnia and other sleep disturbances, headaches, swollen lymph

nodes, depression, anxiety, loss of appetite, hypoxia (lack of

oxygen getting to your tissues), inability to concentrate,

forgetfulness, dizziness, irritability, nausea, hyperactivity,

fatigue, vision problems, dry eyes, eye inflammation, weakened

immune system, allergies, frequent urination, night sweats, extreme

thirst, etc. These symptoms very often suddenly appear in people who

have had a cell phone tower installed nearby their home.

 

2. Microwave exposure induces Oxidative Damage leading to depletion

of the body's natural store of antioxidants like Super Oxide

Dimutase (SOD), Catalase, Glutathione, CoQ10, and Melatonin. When

the body becomes depleted in antioxidants, premature aging,

increased infections, and sticky blood are just a few of

the consequences. With a depressed level of antioxidants in the

blood, for example, high-density lipoproteins (HDL) or the good

cholesterol will bind with free radicals (oxidants) turning the good

cholesterol into bad cholesterol or low-density lipoproteins (LDL).

This leads to more viscous blood which in turn can lead to blood

clots leading to strokes and even heart attacks.

 

3. Microwaves have been known to effect an abnormal influx of

calcium into cells. When there is an abnormal influx of calcium into

mast cells, for example, they produce histamine. This is just one of

the ways in which microwave exposure has been known to trigger or

aggravate allergic reactions.

 

4. Microwave exposure has been known to induce mitochondria

dysfunction. The mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell.

Dysfunctional mitochondria will interfere with the cells' ability to

produce energy and can be linked to fatigue and possibly even

obesity.

 

5. Microwaves have been shown to depolarize the body's red blood

cells. This will cause the red blood cells to clump together and

when this happens, the amount of oxygen getting to the brain cells

and the cells of the body's other organs is diminished substantially

leading to hypoxia. This can cause symptoms similar to altitude

sickness: nausea, dizziness, inability to concentrate, and so on.

 

6. Microwave exposure has been shown in studies to induce a decrease

in the numbers of Natural Killer (NK) cells, a form of white blood

cell which is the body's first line of defense against pathogens.

This leads to the body's weakened ability to recover from viral and

other types of infections. Therefore, people exposed to microwave

radiation would take longer than normal to recover from your day-to-

day infections.

 

7. Exposure to long-term microwave radiation has been shown to

change a particular form of white blood cell (lymphocyte) ratio -

known as the T-helper/T-suppress or (T4/T8) cell ratio - from normal

to abnormal. Abnormalities in this T-lymphocyte ratio have been

shown to lead to an increased susceptibility to viral, fungal, and

bacterial infections. Symptoms include sore throats, low-grade

fevers, weakness, persistent fatigue, and swollen lymph glands.

 

8. In fact, research has shown that exposure to microwaves and other

electromagnetic radiation has been shown to increase viruses,

bacteria, mold, parasites, and yeast in the blood of the human host.

 

9. Microwave exposure has been shown in studies to induce what is

known as " subliminal " stress ( since the body does not know it is

being stressed) causing the adrenal glands to excrete an abnormally

greater amount of cortisol and adrenaline. Excretion of adrenaline,

for one, can lead to irritability and a feeling of hyperactivity -

the latter now very common in children with Attention Deficit

Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). In a continuous state this will

eventually lead to adrenal exhaustion, in which the adrenal glands

just stop working.

 

10. Microwave exposure has been shown to cause a decrease of 5-HT in

the blood. 5-HT is a precursor to the production of the brain

hormone serotonin. Low levels of serotonin have been linked to

anxiety and depression. An increase in anxiety and depression can in

turn be linked to to an increase in the number of suicides.

 

11. Microwave exposure has been shown to induce a decrease in levels

of the brain hormone norepinephrine. This hormone is essential for

control of the autonomic nervous system, and lack of it can lead to

autonomic nervous system disorders. For example, if the autonomic

nervous system is not working properly, the body will have trouble

regulating its temperature - i.e. cooling itself when it is warm and

heating itself when it is cold. This could lead to feeling

colder than one would normally when it is cold and feeling warmer

than one would normally when it is warm. An abnormal decrease in

norepinephrine levels has also been connected to short-term memory

disturbances and depression.

 

12. Production of the brain hormone melatonin has also been shown to

be altered by exposure to microwaves. This brain hormone and

antioxidant is necessary for proper sleep. 42 million (approximately

one in five) Americans now take sleep medication for insomnia while

others often experience sleep disturbances due to exposure to

electromagnetic radiation (EMR). A drop in melatonin levels

has also been connected with increases in breast cancer.

 

13. A drop in the levels of the brain hormone, dopamine, has also

been shown to be connected with microwave radiation exposure. A drop

in dopamine levels have been linked with depression.

 

14. Exposure to electromagnetic radiation has been shown to effect

an abnormal drop in the levels of the neurotransmitter

acetylcholine. A drop in the levels of this neurotransmitter has

been linked to a number of neurological and neuromuscular disorders -

including Alzheimer's disease.

 

15. Some electromagnetic frequencies have been shown to induce

restlessness and hence may very well also be responsible for a

syndrome called restless leg syndrome (RLS).

 

16. Electromagnetic fields- like those emitted by cell phones - have

been shown to alter regional cerebral blood flow. In conditions like

autism and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) it has been shown via

SPECT (Single Proton Emission Computed Tomography) scans that there

is a decreased flow of blood to the brain.

 

17. Numerous studies have connected microwave and other

electromagnetic radiation exposure to an increase in allergies.

Microwave exposure has been shown to turn on mast cells to produce

more histamine - the chemical responsible for allergic reactions -

and other electromagnetic fields have been shown to actually

increase the number of mast cells in the body. Microwaves have also

been found to increase Immunoglobulin antibodies in the body.

Immunoglobulin antibodies are responsible for triggering an allergic

reaction to a particular substance or protein. Many researchers and

scientists were - and still are - puzzled by the fact that the East

German population had so few allergies in comparison to the West

German population when the two countries unified. But what they

failed to examine is the simple fact that East Germany had much

stricter regulations regarding ambient radiation levels than West

Germany. Since East Germany adopted West Germany's standards,

allergies in former East Germany have since reached par with the

levels of former West Germany.

 

18. Microwave exposure has also been shown to adversely affect the

heart and could very well be linked to heart irregularities and

responsible for triggering heart attacks.

 

19. Exposure to microwave radiation has also been shown to effect an

abnormal increase in nitric oxide (NO). One theory holds that an

abnormal increase in cellular calcium will also lead to an abnormal

increase in cellular NO, which in excess produces a damage-producing

free radical or oxidant called peroxynitrite.

 

20. Microwave exposure has been shown to open the blood brain

barrier (BBB). The BBB protects the brain from foreign substances

like viruses, bacteria, and chemical toxins in the blood which may

injure the brain. Thus, exposure to microwave radiation could very

well open people up to viral and bacterial infections of the brain

which they would not normally get otherwise.

 

21. There has been a drastic increase in brain tumors and other

cancers - not to mention diseases such as autism, ADHD, Chronic

Fatigue Immune Deficiency Syndrome, and Alzheimer's - with the

advent of the cell phone. Especially, after 1984 (the year the first

cellular phone networks were set up in most major cities in the USA)

there was a notable jump in children's brain tumors according to the

National Cancer Institute (NCI). Brain tumors are now the number two

cause of death in children followed by leukemia. Just last year

seven people in Melbourne at RMIT University working in a building

on the top two floors underneath a cell phone mast suddenly were

diagnosed with brain tumors. There has also continuously been an

exponential increase in autism since the advent and increase in

numbers worldwide of the cell phone.

 

22. There have been numerous confirmed cases of deformities in

animals and plants near cell phone towers. Now, in heavily

electropolluted Japan it is very common for women to have

miscarriages in their last trimester of pregnancy. Usually, the

fetus is deformed. Cell-phone use has also recently been shown to

lower sperm count in men the longer they use the phone ( e.g. one

hour as opposed to four hours).

 

The cell phone industry makes 100s of billions of dollars in profits

every year. They have the money and the power to influence

politicians, the media, and even the research. Unethical researchers

receive mass funding from this industry and are pressured to tell

you it's safe while the researchers who inform us of its dangers

have consistently had their funding cut. Over 6000 German doctors

have signed " The Friedburger Appeal " after recognizing a connection

between many of the symptoms listed above and exposure to microwave

radiation and other EMR and after the German government has failed

to act to protect its citizenry. The only way the cell phone

industry gets its power is because consumers pay them their money.

They have created an imaginary need or addiction. But if you heed

the information above, then you will realize that you do not need

this " unnecessary evil " - or rather you need it like you need a

brain tumor. As a consumer you have the power to affect change.

Hence, you are either part of the problem or part of the solution!

You can decide. You have a choice - that is - unless you are

Unconscious!

 

P.S. The cell phone industry has been buying up the patents on

inventions that help protect cell phone users from the harmful

radiation emitted by cell phones. Unfortunately, it is a catch-22

situation for them since if they use them, they are hence admitting

what they have been denying all along - that cell phones are

actually dangerous. This would open them up to a plethora of

possible lawsuits. Either way, the consumer loses.

 

Some people have asked me for the resourses for my short article " Do

You Have Microwave Sickness? " Most of them can be found below. If it

is not below then I am sure that one can find what they need by

doing a google search.

Exercise has been shown to increase the production of oxidants.

Fortunately, regular endurance exercise results in adaptations in

the skeletal muscle antioxidant capacity, which protects myocytes

(muscle cells) against the deleterious effects of oxidants and

prevents extensive cellular damage (McCully et al.

1996; Powers et al. 1999).

Because of increasing interest for electromagnetic fields biological

effects we examined possible effects on behaviour produced by

prolonged exposition to radiofrequencies on some wood industry

workers. The results of psychological tests seem to prove a

significant difference between exposed and control groups

in the answers concerning social relations and anxiety. However

these results have to be confirmed by other and more complete

studies.
