Mobiles may be death sentence - http://canberra.yourguide.com.au/articles/1210628.html

Widespread, unchecked use of mobile telephones could potentially pose a greater threat to human health than asbestos or smoking, according to a Canberra neurosurgeon.

Vini Khurana held a 14-month investigation into the link between heavy, long-term use of mobile telephones and the development of malignant brain tumours, reviewing more than 100 international studies on the subject.

"There is currently enough evidence and technology available to warrant industry and governments alike in taking immediate steps to reduce exposure of consumers to mobile phone related electromagnetic radiation and to make consumers clearly aware of potential dangers and how to use this technology sensibly and safely," Dr Khurana said in 69-page paper published on-line.

"It is anticipated that this danger has far broader public health ramifications than asbestos and smoking and directly concerns all of us, particularly the younger generation, including very young children."

Australian Mobile Telecommunications Association chief executive Chris Althaus said these findings were contrary to international studies that "overwhelmingly" showed mobile telephones caused no short or long-term health problems.

"There's been more research on this subject than most things and the World Health Organisation ... and countless national governments have all come together with that conclusion," he said. "Having said that the industry certainly looks at ongoing research as part of the responsible monitoring of technology."

Dr Khurana said mobile phones were convenient but their electromagnetic radiation was invisible.

"Therefore, any danger this exposure poses may be easily dismissed. Exposure is long term and its effects on the body particularly its electrical organ the brain are compounded by numerous other simultaneous long-term exposures including continuous waves from radio and TV transmitter towers, cordless phone base stations, power lines, and wireless ... computing devices."

"A malignant brain tumour represents a life-ending diagnosis in the vast majority of [cases]."

Dr Khurana said there was a "significant and increasing" body of evidence that linked mobile phone use and some brain tumours.

"The elevated risk increased odds appears to be in the order of two- to four-fold," he said.

More research was required to determine if brain tumours were actually caused by electromagnetic radiation from mobile telephones.

If this was the case, it could pose a bigger threat to human health than asbestos or smoking, because billions of people had mobile phones and more young people were using the technology. He strongly urged the public to take precautions.

If possible, children should only use mobile and cordless telephones in emergencies and everyone should choose a "landline".

He recommended that mobile telephones should be set to "speaker" mode and held more than 20cm away from the head.

"Electromagnetic radiation ... can heat the side of the head or pulse it non-thermally and potentially ... interact with its organic electrical content the brain," he said.

"Bluetooth devices and unshielded headsets can convert the user's head into an effective, potentially self-harming antenna."

Consumers should limit their use of these accessories.

"Malignant brain tumours may take several years to develop, and the incidence of malignant brain tumours is increasing," he said.

"Unless the industry and governments take immediate and decisive steps to openly acknowledge and intervene in this situation even while awaiting definitive confirmation by large and well-constructed multi-centre studies worldwide malignant brain tumour incidence and its associated death rate will be observed globally to rise within a decade from now.

"By which time it may be far too late to meaningfully intervene, especially for those who are currently children and young adults."

There is also a rise in the cases of Brain tumours through the consumption of aspartame.
The link in the article did not work, but the one below worked for me.

The link to the main paper at the bottom of the article works and is probably worth a good study.
However, my quick look for animal experiment results was not very satisfactory.

"Interesting", huh?
There are various devices that are *said* to offer shielding. One is a
certain type of earphone set, where the sound is conveyed thru hollow
tubes rather than thru wires (at least that's what I gather), so
radiation is not funneled into the head, as (I read) happens with
regular headsets. Another is a copper "coin" (in the old days a penny
would have worked, but I don't think we have much copper left in our
pennies) which is taped to the back of the phone. I wonder whether
there have been studies to show whether and how well these devices
work--anyone know?

Rejuvenizers help. Also with the other things we get accustomed to
being bombarded with in the atmosphere. They're at:

The Personal one covers cell phones as well as a spectrum of issues.
I know many people feeling better with them, and use myself.
Below is a test done with cell phone one:
Cell Phone Rejuvenizer Test

December 15, 2000

To Whom It May Concern:

I have conducted a clinical trial on an item called the "Cell Phone
Rejuvenizer" at the request of Dr. Phyllis Light. The following were
the results.

Test subjects (patients) were evaluated for acupuncture imbalances,
biomechanical dyskinesias (impairments of body movement), and
emotional stressors. These were corrected and the subjects were
retested with no apparent electromagnetic imbalances. Using these
subjects, a cellular telephone was turned on in a ready to transmit
and receive mode. The cell phone was placed near the subjects head in
the usual position of use. The subjects were then retested for
electromagnetic influence. The test subjects returned to a state of
imbalance and negative pathology.

The "Rejuvenizer" was then attached to the phone, which was placed
near the subject's head. All electromagnetic indicators returned to
normal. The observation was that the addition of the "Rejuvenizer,"
placed on the phone and within the person's electromagnetic field,
negated the apparent effects of the cellular telephone.

After rebalancing again, time factors were introduced. After about ten
minutes, without the "Rejuvenizer," all the negative indices returned
with cellular telephone usage. Again, the application of the
"Rejuvenizer" negated the apparent ill effects.

Thanks Elizabeth, it looks neat!
Do you notice any residual effect from it, or only while you've got it
on? Intriguing!

Hello Shannon,
I felt quite a relief right away, but then I guess you get used to no
longer being burdened with the affects of electromagnetic, cell phone,
etc. anymore. Like Homeopathy, all I can say is it works, harmlessly
and personally adaptive & comprehensive to the exposures of modern
life I only tried it because of a high recommendation...I'm not
into buying these kinds of things usually, keep it very simple.
There seems to be a residual affect if you take it off for a while, yes
Take care,
Liz
