5 G is everywhere. You see the small cell towers on street corners all across the US. In fact, they seemed to have sprung up overnight.
Scientists have been raising serious concerns about the potential health effects of 5G radiation. Over 220 scientists from more than 40 countries have expressed their “serious concerns” about increasing EMF exposure even before 5G was rolled out. Since the advent of 5G scientists raised their voices even louder on behalf of public safety. “Effects include increased cancer risk, cellular stress, increase in harmful free radicals, genetic damages, structural and functional changes of the reproductive system, learning and memory deficits, neurological disorders, and negative impacts on general well-being in humans. Damage goes well beyond the human race, as there is growing evidence of harmful effects to both plants and animals…..
The world’s largest study (25 million US dollar) National Toxicology Program (NTP), shows statistically significant increase in the incidence of brain and heart cancer in animals exposed to EMF below the(recommended)… guidelines followed by most countries. These results support results in human epidemiological studies on RF radiation and brain tumour risk. A large number of peer-reviewed scientific reports demonstrate harm to human health from EMFs. 1
Listen to these words from Americans For Responsible Technology:
Exposure to radiofrequency radiation (“wireless radiation”) is harmful to human health. Thousands of studies showing biological harm from exposure, now confirmed by the National Institutes of Health, have removed all reasonable doubt…..Now the question for legislators and regulators is, What are we going to do about it? 2
It is safe to assume 5G has risks and our focus should be protecting ourselves and our loved ones as much as we can. It is well documented that keeping our cell phones a distance from us is very helpful. Resist the urge to hold your phone in your back pocket. Unplug chargers and devices when not in use.
When you are using your phone, try to use the speaker function to keep the phone away from your ear. Avoid wireless watches, wireless sleep monitors, wireless headsets and fitness type devices even though they are very popular. Likewise avoid wireless baby monitors. The identified health risks would unquestionably lower peak performance but there are even more risks we will discuss in our next post.
Stay in touch with Americans For Responsible Technology. They are bringing legal action against the FDA for not establishing limits and guidelines for radiofrequency radiation which poses an Imminent Hazard to public health. They educate in user friendly fashion. Opt in for their newsletters to stay on top of latest news. If you can become active in your local community, ART will provide invaluable resources to help.
Remain aware and most importantly, stay safe!
Next we will talk about specific impact to peak performance with EMF exposure and some ideas about solutions
