The Science is In - Cell Phone Use Damages DNA
Mother nature has the final word in this much debated controversial issue of cell phone use and human safety.
Do you use a cell phone? Do your children? Do your loved ones? Well, it's time - high time, to take the time to catch up on the latest science about the consequence of cell phones. I know it is hard to imagine. They are so convenient, and the consequence seems so invisible. So, how could there be a problem? Well there is a problem - a very BIG one. Recently released is yet another scientifically validated study that confirms cell phones DO in fact harm human health.
A landmark paper by Igor Belayev's team at Stockholm University has
reported that very low intensity microwave radiation from mobile phones
inhibits DNA repair processes in human stem cells. THIS IS HUGE!!!
So, what does this mean? It means that cell phones damage your DNA. What is DNA? It is the blueprint for every cell in your body. DNA controls every message of your cells to create, repair and function. The consequence of damaging DNA? Well, to put it bluntly - Disease and death of cells. This could manifest in such ways as inflammation, chronic pain, premature aging and disease, especially cancer.
In the authors' words, "this represents a direct mechanistic link to epidemiological data showing an association of Mobile Phone exposure with increased cancer risk." The data obtained from human stem cells is of "utmost relevance for assessment of possible health risks of exposure from mobile phones." Most, if not all adult tissues and organs including blood, skin and brain contain stem cells.
Children are especially at more risk. A recent report proved that children are more at risk from mobile phone use than adults. The risk of glioma is more than 5-fold in children but just more than 2-fold in adults. This is not just skepticism.
The author went on to say "In children, almost all organs and tissues possess stem cells and stem cells are more active in children (since their bodies are growing at rapid rates). The possible relationship of chronic exposure and various types of tumors and leukemia especially in children should be investigated."
This issue is very close to my heart. Speaking from personal experience, I have encountered health issues from wireless technology. Had I not had the sever symptoms I did from wireless technology, I would not be as keenly aware of the devastating impacts. I am not against cell phones. Yes they can be helpful in times of emergency. However, I am all for DISCRETION. Currently there is no discretion regarding the use of cellphones. People have no clue. We MUST be conscious consumers and users of this powerful technology.

May you be well & thrive,
