The evidence:

 

1. The symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome mimic those of what the

Russians have termed " Radio Wave Illness " but also known as " Microwave

Sickness. "

 

2. Outbreaks of " Chronic Fatigue Syndrome " or " Yuppie Flu " suddenly became

widespread in the mid 80s just as commercial cellular phone networks were

being set up in the United States and other parts of the world.

 

3. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and a number of other similar syndromes

(Autism, ADHD, Alzheimer's, etc.) increased exponentially in the early 1990s

with

the advent and spread of digital (2G) cellular phone technology.

 

4. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Autism, and ADHD are found to be more

prevalent in countries with a plethora of cell phone networks and electrosmog

present

while being just about absent in those countries with few like Myanmar,

Nepal, Bhutan, and Laos which have been late to implement cell phone

technology.

(These disease states are also extremely rare among the Amish - who due to

religious beliefs do not use electricity.)

 

5. Microwaves have been shown in studies to induce Oxidative Damage leading

to a decrease in Super Oxide Dimutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione, CoQ10

along with evidence of increased byproducts of oxidative stress to cell

membranes, MDA. Oxidative damage has been found to be a major factor in CFS

and

people with CFS consistently found to be depleted in the above body's natural

antioxidents.

 

6. Exposure to microwaves and other EMFs is known to abnormally affect calc

ium flux into and out of cells.

 

This is also a abnormality found in people with CFS/ME.

 

7. Mitochondria Disfunction - shown to be induced by microwave exposure -

is also an abnormality found in CFS/ME.

 

8. Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are altered and their count decreased by

exposure to microwave radiation.

 

Red blood cells are responsible for transporting oxygen to and carbon

dioxide away from cells in the brain and other organs of the body. Lack of

oxygen

to the brain and other organs can result in brain fog, inability to

concentrate, dizziness, and nausea - symptoms found in CFS; they are also

interestingly found in altitude sickness due to hypoxia or a lack of oxygen

being

transported to the tissues in the brain and other organs.

 

9. Microwaves have been shown in studies to induce a decrease in the

numbers of Natural Killer (NK) cells. Low numbers of NK Cells are found in

People

With Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (PWC), and are thought to be responsible for

the reactivation of viral and other infections found in PWC.

 

10. In workers occupationally exposed long-term to microwaves a lower value

of T-helper/T-suppressor (T4/T8) ratio were found. PWC have a lower than

normal ratio of T4/T8.

 

11. EMF exposure has been shown to effect an increase in viruses, bacteria,

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

These pathogens are all commonly found in PWC.

 

12. Microwaves have been shown in studies to induce " subliminal " stress

causing the adrenals to excrete more cortisone and adrenaline eventually

leading

to adrenal exhaustion. Adrenal exhaustion is a major factor in CFS.

 

13. Studies have shown a decrease 5-HT in the blood of those exposed to

microwaves. 5-HT is a precursor to the production of serotonin. Low levels of

serotonin have been linked to anxiety and depression. Anxiety and depression

are symptoms commonly found in People With CFS (PWC).

 

14. Microwaves are known to induce a decrease in norepinephrine levels.

Norepinephrine is essential for control of the autonomous nervous system.

The autonomous nervous system is known to be affected in people with CFS - and

in Japan, people with CFS (PWC) are now often also diagnosed as having the

now extremely common Autonomous Nervous System Disorder

(jiritsushinkeishichosho). Norepinephrine is also connected with short-term

memory disturbances

and depression, both of which are found in PWC.

 

15. Melatonin production is altered by exposure to microwaves.

Melatonin is an antioxidant necessary for sleep. Melatonin is believed to

be altered in CFS with irregular sleep patterns and insomnia symptoms

associated with CFS.

 

16. Dopamine levels are also known to be affected by microwave radiation

exposure. PWC have been found to often have low levels of dopamine with

decreased dopamine being linked to depression, a symptoms also found in PWC.

 

17. Decreases in the hormone Acetylcholine - known to be induced by

exposure to EMR - is an abnormality also found in CFS/ME.

 

18. People with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome usually feel better at night (in

spite of sleep problems) - when there are less people using their cell phones

and hence less electrosmog.

 

19. Some EMF frequencies have been shown to induce restlessness. PWC often

complain of restlessness and many have a condition called restless leg

syndrome (RLS).

 

20. It has been documented that people who have had a cell phone tower

installed near their homes suddenly start having the following symptoms:

headaches, dizziness, inability to concentrate, memory problems, fatigue,

worsening vision, swollen lymph nodes, nausea, and decreased appetite. All

these symptoms have been found in people with CFS.

 

21. It has been found in CFS (and Autism) via SPECT scans that there is

decreased blood flow to the brain. Studies have shown that electromagnetic

fields (EMF), like those emitted by cell phones, alter regional cerebral blood

flow.

 

22. Microwaves have been shown to alter blood coagulation. People with

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome often have a coagulation dysfunction.

 

23. PWC often suffer from allergies. Allergies involve the production of

histamine by mast cells. Microwaves have been known to turn on mast cells to

produce more histamine and other EMFs have been to shown to actually increase

the number of mast cells in the body. Microwaves have also been found to

increase IgE antibodies in people with atopic eczema.

 

24. Low Blood Pressure (hypotension) is known to be caused by microwave

exposure and it is also a symptom found in CFS/ME.

 

25. Microwaves are also known to adversely affect the heart. People with

CFS usually go on to develop heart problems in the later stages of their

illness.

 

26. Studies have shown an adverse effect of microwaves on the eyes.

PWC often complain of problems with their eyes and vision deterioration.

 

27. It is known that microwaves and other EMR alter the pineal gland's

production of melatonin and serotonin which - among other actions - regulate

the

body's biocycles. People with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome usually have a

dysfunctional pineal gland.

 

28. Nitric Oxide buildup - a byproduct of microwave exposure - is also

found in CFS.

 

29. An opening of the Blood Brain Barrier (BBB) - shown to be induced by

microwave radiation exposure - is also found in PWC/ME.

 

30. Six thousand German doctors - many specializing in Environmental

Medicine - have signed the Freidburger Appeal - after the government failed to

act

- since they have noticed a correlation between a microwave exposure by cell

phones and cell phone towers and a number of symptoms, many of which are

found in CFS/ME.

 

31. There have been a number of anecdotal accounts from PWC/ME who have

cured themselves or eliminated many of their symptoms by reducing their

exposure

to or removing themselves from an electromagnetic environment.

 

Having said that I think that all this evidence is pretty substantial.

Isn't it time for good people to stand up and say something in numbers, to

stand up and do something together?

 

" Somehow these dangers must be brought into the open so forcefully that the

entire population of the world is made aware of them. Scientists must begin

to ask and seek answers tot he questions raised in this chapter, regardless

of the effect on their careers [emphasis mine].

These energies are too dangerous to me entrusted forever to politicians,

military leaders, and their lapdog researchers. " (Becker, 1985, p. 328)

 

Hence, in examining the pieces of the puzzle called CFS and connecting those

pieces to the research on the effects of microwave radiation and other EMR,

the overwhelming evidence presented in this paper seems to answer the

question, " Are microwaves and other EMR a causal factor in CFS/ME? " with a

definite

and reverberating " Yes. "

 

It shall be interesting to see how those who make their living through the

business and politics of denial, deciet, deception, will try to spin the

facts. The truth of the matter is that the present ambient level of EMR in our

environment is dangerous and is making too many of us sick.

It is time we moved from denial to acceptance, from ignorance to awareness,

and apathy to action.

This is not science. It is conjecture. I can take all of these

pieces and come to a different conclusion.

Microwaves, cell phones and EMF's compromise the immune system and

may contribute to the spread of CFS and other diseases of the last

30 years. But,

there is no conclusive evidence to show that " Microwaves are the

Major Causal Factor in CFS/ME. " There are some good facts here but,

the conclusions drawn here are not the only explanation of these

facts.

Gov't researchers tell us that CFS was developed by the US-

Canadian gov't's in military labs. It is a micoplasma.

Then it was tested on the population without any warning.

Mosquitoes were infected and released in Punta Gorda, Fl.

The first cases were reported within days.

 

Here are quotes from a paper on micoplasma:

MYCOPLASMA

The Linking Pathogen in Neurosystemic Diseases

Several strains of mycoplasma have been " engineered "

to become more dangerous. They are now being blamed

for AIDS, cancer, CFS, MS, CJD and other neurosystemic

diseases. "

 

And,

 

 

" Testing via Mosquito Vector in Punta Gorda, Florida

 

A report from The New England Journal of Medicine

reveals that one of the first outbreaks of chronic

fatigue syndrome was in Punta Gorda, Florida, back in

1957.(10) It was a strange coincidence that a week

before these people came down with chronic fatigue

syndrome, there was a huge influx of mosquitoes.

 

The National Institutes of Health claimed that the

mosquitoes came from a forest fire 30 miles away. The

truth is that those mosquitoes were infected in Canada

by Dr Guilford B. Reed at Queen's University. They

were bred in Belleville, Ontario, and taken down to

Punta Gorda and released there.

 

Within a week, the first five cases ever of chronic

fatigue syndrome were reported to the local clinic in

Punta Gorda. The cases kept coming until finally 450

people were ill with the disease. "

THE HIDDEN HAZARDS OF MICROWAVE COOKING

For research purposes only from the Orion project which is set up in

a very unique way in that the Orion project is an information

sharing resource funded privately, which sells nothing and is there

for the sharing of information which is of huge value. This is a

totally different set up from being prescribed just drugs where

there are huge profits to be made often at the expense of the

patients well being even sometimes misery.

The following information is copied from a recent article.

Is it possible that millions of people are ignorantly sacrificing

their health in exchange for the convenience of microwave ovens? Why

did the Soviet Union ban the use of microwave ovens in 1976? Who

invented microwave ovens, and why? The answers to these questions

may shock you into throwing your microwave oven in the trash.

Over 90% of American homes have microwave ovens used for meal

preparation. Because microwave ovens are so convenient and energy

efficient, as compared to conventional ovens, very few homes or

restaurants are without them. In general, people believe that

whatever a microwave oven does to foods cooked in it doesn't have

any negative effect on either the food or them. Of course, if

microwave ovens were really harmful, our government would never

allow them on the market, would they? Would they? Regardless of what

has been " officially " released concerning microwave ovens, we have

personally stopped using ours based on the research facts outlined

in this article.

The purpose of this report is to show proof - evidence - that

microwave cooking is not natural, nor healthy, and is far more

dangerous to the human body than anyone could imagine. However, the

microwave oven manufacturers, Washington City politics, and plain

old human nature are suppressing the facts and evidence. Because of

this, people are continuing to microwave their food - in blissful

ignorance - without knowing the effects and danger of doing so.

How do microwave ovens work?

Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic energy, like light waves or

radio waves, and occupy a part of the electromagnetic spectrum of

power, or energy. Microwaves are very short waves of electromagnetic

energy that travel at the speed of light (186,282 miles per second).

In our modern technological age, microwaves are used to relay long

distance telephone signals, television programs, and computer

information across the earth or to a satellite in space. But the

microwave is most familiar to us as an energy source for cooking

food.

This microwave radiation interacts with the molecules in food. All

wave energy changes polarity from positive to negative with each

cycle of the wave. In microwaves, these polarity changes happen

millions of times every second. Food molecules - especially the

molecules of water - have a positive and negative end in the same

way a magnet has a north and a south polarity.

In commercial models, the oven has a power input of about 1000 watts

of alternating current. As these microwaves generated from the

magnetron bombard the food, they cause the polar molecules to rotate

at the same frequency millions of times a second. All this agitation

creates molecular friction, which heats up the food. The friction

also causes substantial damage to the surrounding molecules, often

tearing them apart or forcefully deforming them. The scientific name

for this deformation is " structural isomerism " .

By comparison, microwaves from the sun are based on principles of

pulsed direct current (DC) that don't create frictional heat;

microwave ovens use alternating current (AC) creating frictional

heat. A microwave oven produces a spiked wavelength of energy with

all the power going into only one narrow frequency of the energy

spectrum. Energy from the sun operates in a wide frequency spectrum.

Radiation, as defined by physics terminology, is " the

electromagnetic waves emitted by the atoms In simpler terms, a

microwave oven decays and changes the molecular structure of the

food by the process of radiation. Had the manufacturers accurately

called them " radiation ovens " , it's doubtful they would have ever

sold one, but that's exactly what a microwave oven is.

We've all been told that microwaving food is not the same as

irradiating it (radiation " treatment " ). The two processes are

supposed to use completely different waves of energy and at

different intensities. No FDA or officially released government

studies have proven current microwaving usage to be harmful, but we

all know that the validity of studies can be - and are sometimes

deliberately - limiting. Many of these studies are later proven to

be inaccurate.

 

 

Many of us come from a generation where mothers and grandmothers

have distrusted the modern " inside out " cooking they claimed

was " not suitable " for most foods. My mother refused to even try

baking anything in a microwave. She also didn't like the way a cup

of coffee tasted when heated in a microwave oven. I have to

Microwaves unsafe for baby's milk

A number of warnings have been made public, but have been barely

noticed. For example, Young Families, the Minnesota Extension

Service of the University of Minnesota, published the following in

1989:

" Although microwaves heat food quickly, they are not recommended for

heating a baby's bottle. The bottle may seem cool to the touch, but

the liquid inside may become extremely hot and could burn the baby's

mouth and throat. Also, the buildup of steam in a closed container,

such as a baby bottle, could cause it to explode. Heating the bottle

in a microwave can cause slight changes in the milk. In infant

formulas, there may be a loss of some vitamins. In expressed breast

milk, some protective properties may be destroyed. Warming a bottle

by holding it under tap water, or by setting it in a bowl of warm

water, then testing it on your wrist before feeding may take a few

minutes longer, but it is much safer. "

Dr. Lita Lee of Hawaii reported in the December 9, 1989 Lancet:

" Microwaving baby formulas converted certain trans-amino acids into

their synthetic cis-isomers. Synthetic isomers, whether cis-amino

acids or trans-fatty acids, are not biologically active. Further,

one of the amino acids, L-proline, was converted to its d-isomer,

which is known to be neurotoxic (poisonous to the nervous system)

and nephrotoxic (poisonous to the kidneys). It's bad enough that

many babies are not nursed, but now they are given fake milk (baby

formula) made even more toxic via microwaving. "

Microwaved blood kills patient

In 1991, there was a lawsuit in Oklahoma concerning the hospital use

of a microwave oven to warm blood needed in a transfusion. The case

involved a hip surgery patient, Norma Levitt, who died from a simple

blood transfusion. It seems the nurse had warmed the blood in a

microwave oven. This tragedy makes it very apparent that there's

much more to " heating " with microwaves than we've been led to

believe. Blood for transfusions is routinely warmed, but not in

microwave ovens. In the case of Mrs. Levitt, the microwaving altered

the blood and it killed her.

It's very obvious that this form of microwave radiation " heating "

does something to the substances it heats. It's also becoming quite

apparent that people who process food in a microwave oven are also

ingesting these " unknowns " .

 

Scientific evidence and facts

Production of unnatural molecules is inevitable. Naturally occurring

amino acids have been observed to undergo isomeric changes (changes

in shape morphing) as well as transformation into toxic forms, under

the impact of microwaves produced in ovens.

One short-term study found significant and disturbing changes in the

blood of individuals consuming microwaved milk and vegetables. Eight

volunteers ate various combinations of the same foods cooked

different ways. All foods that were processed through the microwave

ovens caused changes in the blood of the volunteers. Hemoglobin

levels decreased and over all white cell levels and cholesterol

levels increased. Lymphocytes decreased.

Luminescent (light-emitting) bacteria were employed to detect

energetic changes in the blood. Significant increases were found in

the luminescence of these bacteria when exposed to blood serum

obtained after the consumption of microwaved food. "

The Swiss clinical study

Dr. Hans Ulrich Hertel, who is now retired, worked as a food

scientist for many years with one of the major Swiss food companies

that do business on a global scale. A few years ago, he was fired

from his job for questioning certain processing procedures that

denatured the food.

In 1991, he and a Lausanne University professor published a research

paper indicating that food cooked in microwave ovens could pose a

greater risk to health than food cooked by conventional means. An

article also appeared in issue 19 of the Journal Franz Weber in

which it was stated that the consumption of food cooked in microwave

ovens had cancerous effects on the blood. The research paper itself

followed the article. On the cover of the magazine there was a

picture of the Grim Reaper holding a microwave oven in one of his

hands.

Dr. Hertel was the first scientist to conceive and carry out a

quality clinical study on the effects microwaved nutrients have on

the blood and physiology of the human body. His small but well

controlled study showed the degenerative force produced in microwave

ovens and the food processed in them. The scientific conclusion

showed that microwave cooking changed the nutrients in the food;

and, changes took place in the participants' blood that could cause

deterioration in the human system. Hertel's scientific study was

done along with Dr. Bernard H. Blanc of the Swiss Federal Institute

of Technology and the University Institute for Biochemistry.

 

" Leukocytosis, which cannot be accounted for by normal daily

deviations, is taken very seriously by hemotologists. Leukocytes are

often signs of pathogenic effects on the living system, such as

poisoning and cell damage. The increase of leukocytes with the

microwaved foods were more pronounced than with all the other

variants. It appears that these marked increases were caused

entirely by ingesting the microwaved substances.

This process is based on physical principles and has already been

confirmed in the literature. The apparent additional energy

exhibited by the luminescent bacteria was merely an extra

confirmation. There is extensive scientific literature concerning

the hazardous effects of direct microwave radiation on living

systems. It is astonishing, therefore, to realize how little effort

has been taken to replace this detrimental technique of microwaves

with technology more in accordance with nature. Technically produced

microwaves are based on the principle of alternating current. Atoms,

molecules, and cells hit by this hard electromagnetic radiation are

forced to reverse polarity 1-100 billion times a second. There are

no atoms, molecules or cells of any organic system able to withstand

such a violent, destructive power for any extended period of time,

not even in the low energy range of milliwatts.

Of all the natural substances - which are polar - the oxygen of

water molecules reacts most sensitively. This is how microwave

cooking heat is generated - friction from this violence in water

molecules. Structures of molecules are torn apart, molecules are

forcefully deformed, called structural isomerism, and thus become

impaired in quality. This is contrary to conventional heating of

food where heat transfers convectionally from without to within.

Cooking by microwaves begins within the cells and molecules where

water is present and where the energy is transformed into frictional

heat.

 

 

As soon as Doctors Hertel and Blanc published their results, the

authorities reacted. A powerful trade organization, the Swiss

Association of Dealers for Electro-apparatuses for Households and

Industry, known as FEA, struck swiftly in 1992. They forced the

President of the Court of Seftigen, Canton of Bern, to issue a " gag

order " against Drs. Hertel and Blanc. In March 1993, Dr. Hertel was

convicted for " interfering with commerce " and prohibited from

further publishing his results. However, Dr. Hertel stood his ground

and fought this decision over the years.

Not long ago, this decision was reversed in a judgment delivered in

Strasbourg, Austria, on August 25, 1998. The European Court of Human

Rights held that there had been a violation of Hertel's rights in

the 1993 decision. The European Court of Human Rights also ruled

that the " gag order " issued by the Swiss court in 1992 against Dr.

Hertel, prohibiting him from declaring that microwave ovens are

dangerous to human health, was contrary to the right to freedom of

expression. In addition, Switzerland was ordered to pay Dr. Hertel

compensation.

Who invented microwave ovens?

Carcinogens in microwaved food

In Dr. Lita Lee's book, Health Effects of Microwave Radiation -

Microwave Ovens, and in the March and September 1991 issues of

Earthletter, she stated that every microwave oven leaks electro-

magnetic radiation, harms food, and converts substances cooked in it

to dangerous organ-toxic and carcinogenic products. Further research

summarized in this article reveal that microwave ovens are far more

harmful than previously imagined.

From the conclusions of the Swiss, Russian and German scientific

clinical studies, we can no longer ignore the microwave oven sitting

in our kitchens. Based on this research, we will conclude this

article with the following:

1). Continually eating food processed from a microwave oven causes

long term - permanent - brain damage by " shorting out " electrical

impulses in the brain [de-polarizing or de-magnetizing the brain

tissue].

2). The human body cannot metabolize [break down] the unknown by-

products created in microwaved food.

3). Male and female hormone production is shut down and/or altered

by continually eating microwaved foods.

4). The effects of microwaved food by-products are residual [long

term, permanent] within the human body.

5). Minerals, vitamins, and nutrients of all microwaved food is

reduced or altered so that the human body gets little or no benefit,

or the human body absorbs altered compounds that cannot be broken

down.

6). The minerals in vegetables are altered into cancerous free

radicals when cooked in microwave ovens.

7). Microwaved foods cause stomach and intestinal cancerous growths

[tumors]. This may explain the rapidly increased rate of colon

cancer in America.

8). The prolonged eating of microwaved foods causes cancerous cells

to increase in human blood.

9). Continual ingestion of microwaved food causes immune system

deficiencies through lymph gland and blood serum alterations.

10). Eating microwaved food causes loss of memory, concentration,

emotional instability, and a decrease of intelligence.

Have you tossed out your microwave oven yet?

RELEASE PRIORITY: CLASS I ROO1a Ten Reasons to Throw out your

Microwave Oven

From the conclusions of the Swiss, Russian and German scientific

clinical

studies, we can no longer ignore the microwave oven sitting in our

kitchens.

Based on this research, we will conclude this article with the

following:

 

 

 

1). Continually eating food processed from a microwave oven causes

long term -

permanent - brain damage by " shorting out " electrical impulses in

the brain

[de-polarizing or de-magnetizing the brain tissue].

 

2). The human body cannot metabolize [break down] the unknown by-

products

created in microwaved food.

 

3). Male and female hormone production is shut down and/or altered by

continually eating microwaved foods.

 

4). The effects of microwaved food by-products are residual [long

term,

permanent] within the human body.

 

5). Minerals, vitamins, and nutrients of all microwaved food is

reduced or

altered so that the human body gets little or no benefit, or the

human body

absorbs altered compounds that cannot be broken down.

 

6). The minerals in vegetables are altered into cancerous free

radicals when

cooked in microwave ovens.

 

7). Microwaved foods cause stomach and intestinal cancerous growths

[tumors].

This may explain the rapidly increased rate of colon cancer in

America .

 

8). The prolonged eating of microwaved foods causes cancerous cells

to increase

in human blood.

 

9). Continual ingestion of microwaved food causes immune system

deficiencies

through lymph gland and blood serum alterations.

 

10). Eating microwaved food causes loss of memory, concentration,

emotional

instability, and a decrease of intelligence. Have you tossed out

your microwave

oven yet? After you throw out your microwave you can use a toaster

oven as a

replacement. It works well for most and is nearly as quick. The use

of

artificial microwave transmissions for subliminal psychological

control, a.k.a.

" brainwashing " , has also been proven. We're attempting to obtain

copies of the

1970's Russian research documents and results written by Drs. Luria

and Perov

specifying their clinical experiments in this area.
