Mobile Phone Safety
If you are
worried about the damage done to your brain by Microwave energy from
the antenna then use a hands free kit. Most of the devices
that claim to shield your brain are worse than useless, some even focus
the energy into your head. -- Axel Klystron Milton
Keynes UK
Pay attention to the signal
strength indication on your mobile. The power used by your phone can
vary by as much as sixteen times depending on whether you are getting
good signals from the local transmitter. Your battery will last much
longer if you are in a good reception area. Just
stepping outside your car to get better reception can often double
battery life (and halve the amount of energy zapping your head)
-- Axel Klystron Milton Keynes UK
Get an Electronic Engineer to
fit a couple of ferrite beads on the cable to your "hands free", that
should stop the radio frequency energy travelling up the
cable. -- Sam Clark, London
If you are concerned that the phone you are
buying is giving out an unnecessarily high level of microwave
radiation, you should ask about the SAR rating, a good dealer will be
able to tell you. The rating, and therefore the dosage can
vary by up to twenty times. The Institute for Satellite and Mobile
Communications carried out tests that showed a variation between 0.1
and 2.67 i.e. the worst one was more than twenty times
worse. -- Ed - .
Professor
Darius Leszczynski from the Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority of
Finland has conducted research that confirms that there are damaging
effects from the radiation that is emitted from mobile phones. He has
written a report that claims that there is a failure of the blood-brain
barrier in both rats and humans who have been exposed to even moderate
amounts of radiation. An intact blood-brain barrier is
essential to protect the delicate brain cells from damage from
neurotoxic substances accumulating and poisoning brain cells.
There is
some evidence that overexposure to microwave radiation from mobile
phones can cause Early Onset Dementia. While doing research for a TV
program on the hazards of mobile phones. The journalists learned of at
least eight British engineers who had acquired the disorder before
their 45th birthday. All eight had been exposed to mobile phone
radiation for several hours a day.
Children
seem to be more vulnerable and should only use mobiles in an emergency
situation.
Brain, eye
and other head and neck cancers have sometimes been attributed to the
use of mobiles, however since there is considerable latency, ten to
twenty years elapsing between the exposure to the causative factor and
onset, it will be some time before we know for sure whether the
concerns are justified.
The
Blood-Brain Barrier and Dementia:
An intact blood-brain barrier is essential to protect the delicate
brain cells from damage from neurotoxic substances accumulating and
poisoning brain cells.It is likely that any factor which reduces the
effectiveness of the mechanism will result in a more rapid build-up of
cell-damaging substances. The increased use of mobile phones is
believed to reduce the effectiveness of the BBB and it will be
interesting to see if there is an increase in this new form of dementia.
