The thyroid gland is located at the front of the neck and is part of the endocrine system. It is responsible for producing and regulating hormones that control almost every aspect of human physiology including breathing, digestion, heart function, body weight, brain development, menstrual cycle, body temperature, cholesterol levels, muscle control & strength, and the nervous systems.

What are Hyper- and Hypothyroidism?

The hormones produced by the thyroid glands are Triiodothyronine (T3) and Thyroxine (T4). For the thyroid to properly function, it is vital that T3 and T4 levels are neither too low nor too high. (There are other hormones and other chemicals in action here, but this is keeping it simple.)

When the thyroid produces too much hormone, the condition is known as hyperthyroidism; some of the symptoms include anxiety, weight loss, tremors, hyperactivity, heart palpitations, hair loss, Graves' disease, irritability and moodiness; irregular menstrual cycle, increased bowel movements, and sweating or sensitivity to heat.

Conversely, if the thyroid doesn't produce enough hormones then this condition is called hypothyroidism, and some of the symptoms are: insomnia, infertility, depression, low heart rate, poor memory, dry skin and hair, joint and muscle pain, difficulty concentrating, tiredness and fatigue; frequent heavy periods, reduced physical growth, stiffness of the muscles and intolerance to cold temperatures.

The Prevalence of Thyroid Disease

According to Thyroid.org, the world’s leading professional association of medical specialists dedicated to education and research to improve thyroid disease, about 20 million Americans suffer from some form of thyroid disease or another.

Additionally, 60 percent of people with thyroid disease are not even aware of their condition. And while people from all walks of life get thyroid disease, Thyroid.Org says women are 5 to 8 times more likely to have thyroid disease than men.

With so many people suffering from thyroid dysfunction, many researchers are asking the question, why? In recent years, an increasing number of studies indicate that exposure to electromagnetic frequencies or EMF from cell phones may be one of the causes.

The Truth About EMF and the Thyroid

The National Cancer Institute says, "cell phones emit radiofrequency…a form of non-ionizing radiation from their antennas…which can be absorbed by tissues closest to where the phone is held."

They also report that a recent study indicates that when people "used a cell phone for 50 minutes or more, brain tissue on that same side of the head absorbed more glucose than did tissues on the opposite side of the brain." In essence, cell phone radiation is frying brain tissue.

Studies show that electromagnetic frequencies from cell phones are responsible for the heating effect that happens to human tissue; the same heating effect that you feel after you’ve been on the cell phone for an extended period.

Haaretz Newspaper reports that in an Israeli study conducted by Silva et al. initial findings show a connection between radiation from cell phones and thyroid cancer. Conducted in Beilinson Hospital at Tel Aviv University, scientists in the study collected human thyroid cells from healthy patients and exposed them to radiation that simulated the electromagnetic radiation given off by cell phones. Surprisingly enough, irradiated thyroid cells propagated at a much higher and substantial rate than the non-irradiated cells in the control group. A second experiment, using different methods and materials, gave similar results.

Research by Amin et al. from Cairo University and the National Research Centre in Egypt discovered that in a group of employees who worked on their computers most of the day, long term exposure to radiation from their computer screens caused a reduction in T3 and T4 – the hormones produced by the thyroids.

Another interesting study was conducted by Mortavazi et al. (2004) on 77 healthy university students. The students were divided into non-users, moderate users and heavy users of cell phones. The study showed that thyroid function was altered in moderate and heavy users of mobile phones. "This is the first human study to assess the associations between mobile phone use and alterations in the levels of TSH [thyroid stimulating hormone] and thyroid hormones. Based on the findings, a higher than normal TSH level, a low mean T4, and normal T3 concentrations in mobile users were observed. It seems that minor degrees of thyroid dysfunction with a compensatory rise in TSH may occur following excessive use of mobile phones."

A study by Bhargavin et al. (2017) in Indian schools looked at the effects of EMF on 61 students from ages 17-24. The results showed that within 15 minutes of exposure to EMF, "quantifiable effects could be measured in the endocrine glands, nervous system, liver, kidney, spleen, and immune system of healthy teenagers."

Numerous other studies done in rats conclude that low amounts of microwave radiation are enough to permanently alter not only the thyroid tissue but also ovarian, testicular and other types of tissues in laboratory animals. Two noteworthy researchers who did work in this area were Rajkovic and Esmekaya. Rajkovic et al. (2003) showed in his research that exposing rats to cell phone radiation for only three months was enough to damage their thyroids visibly; not only that but even after the radiation was turned off, their thyroids were not able to begin producing hormones after that!

In his research Esmekaya et al. (2010) exposed rats "to simulated 2G cell phone radiation for 20 minutes a day for three weeks," and he found the same results as Rajkovic. That's 2G...what will 5G do?

Eskander et al. (2012) focused his study on a population of people who lived nearby a cell phone base station. In this group of people, he found a significant decrease in several types of hormones in the blood including prolactin and testosterone. The most substantial loss, however, was in the capacity of the thyroids to produce T3 and T4 hormones. As we discussed earlier, the consequence of this condition is hypothyroidism which could result in anything from insomnia to infertility.

Conclusion

It’s hard to dismiss the irony that despite the mounting evidence, the CDC currently says on their website "more research is needed before we know if using cell phones causes health effects.’"

However, to the discerning mind, the evidence is clear. Cell phone radiation, as well as other forms of EMF, are a serious threat to human health. Not only is the science clear that health is affected, but we have an idea of the many specific areas, such as thyroid function, that are under attack.

Therefore it’s important to adopt proactive and preventative measures when using them. This includes the use of Blushield technology, the only active protection available on the market.

Keep the cell phone away from your head (aka your brain, thyroid and more). And make sure you are within the field of a Blushield Portable, Blushield Cube or others, for protection from the EMFs in our modern, civilized life.

EMF is dangerous, that is certain. If you still have any doubts about that, please read our other blog posts, like this one or this one. What do we do about it though? Shouldn’t we block EMF? We get this question from time to time, and we think it is time to publicly address it.

There are many people in the EMF protection community who say that the only way to protect ourselves from EMF is by blocking it. There are multitudes of products on the market designed to do just that. You can drop tens of thousands of dollars making your home a Fort Knox against EMF. There is special metal you can put around your electrical wiring in the walls, there is sheetrock lined with lead, special windows, there are faraday cages, paints, powders, fabrics and more, all designed to block EMF. Do these things work? The short answer is no.

Starting with the simple no...

Whether we realize it or not, we are always in community with others. We go to work, the store, gas station, bank, school, etc. While it is possible to do most of these things online at home, it is not likely that most people do. We leave our homes to do things, to socialize, to engage with our community. All the money you can put into blocking within your home cannot protect you when you are outside your home. There is no EMF blocking technology that can protect you while you are out in the world. You drive in and out of range of innumerable cell phone towers and WiFi signals, as well as others’ cell phones, radio waves and constant satellite signals. And if you have a relatively new car, you are riding in an EMF box. There is no way you can block all of this. It is coming at you from every angle and at different strengths and waveforms. Even if you a chainmail suit while you run your errands, it will not block the harmful effects of EMF.

On to the more complex no…

If you know anything at all about Blushield, you know that our EMF protection works using complex, multi waveform, native frequencies embedded in scalar fields. The scalar energy field is the basic blueprint of the universe. Scalar fields can be produced intentionally or unintentionally. Blushield produces intentional scalar fields that resonate with the sympathetic nervous system of the organism. Mankind produces scalar fields unintentionally as a component of EMF. These don’t resonate and are therefore harmful. The intentional scalar field of Blushield allows the organisms’ sympathetic nervous systems to function normally in any EMF environment.

Standard methods of shielding will not protect you from the ambient EMF. In some cases they even work as an amplifier and can be dangerous in areas of high EMF. Even within a faraday cage, the scalar component of the harmful EMFs penetrate. There is no metal or concrete that can block the scalar field. So as much as we try to block EMFs, they will always come through on the scalar field and this nonthermal aspect of EMF is what makes them harmful to your DNA. This is why it is important to protect yourself on the cellular level with Blushield.

Blushield provides deep, cellular protection from all types of EMF, even 5G. It is the only form of EMF protection that mitigates 93% of all EMF, both in humans and animals. Our animal studies prove that the effects of Blushield are not psychosomatic. There are other things you can do to further protect yourself, like turning off WiFi when not in use, not putting your cell phone up to your head, refraining from putting your iPad or laptop directly on your lap, etc.. There is no such thing as competition when it comes to EMF protection, only what works and what doesn’t. Get EMF protection that puts a blanket of protection over your cells, your home, your family.

This video features Frank Clegg, the former longtime president of Microsoft Canada. Now, he is co-founder and CEO of the non-profit organization, Canadians for Safe Technology.

His purpose of speaking to Royal Society panel is to make a public request to hold Health Canada accountable to a more open and transparent process of scientific research and evaluation on its current update of Safety Code 6. Some of the key points made in this video include:

• As president of Microsoft Canada, he witnessed the potentially harmful effects of technology
• Code 6 deals with smart meters in homes and business, Wifi in schools, placement of cell towers and antennas, baby monitors, game consoles, and cell phones/tablets
• There are no studies that prove conclusively that the current limits of Safety Code 6 is safe for 24/7 exposure
• It is suggested that manufacturers need to ensure the safety of the products
• There are peer-reviewed studies that show harm to humans of wireless radiation that are significantly below Health Canada’s Safety Code 6
• Swedish researchers published a study in the International Journal of Oncology that correlates wireless technology use to malignant brain tumors
• American Association of Environmental Medicine, American Academy of Pediatrics, International Society of Doctors and the Irish Doctor Environmental have spoken out against updated safety limits in Safety Code 6
• This exposure is compared to the harmful nature of tobacco, asbestos, some prescribed medications
• Wireless radiation can cause electro-sensitivity with symptoms: increased headaches, insomnia, pain, rashes, memory lapses, and dizziness
• Some people are more affected by wireless microwave exposure than others
• Because of the potential harm of radiation, Belgium banned children’s mobile phones
• Safety Code 6 allows cell towers and devices to emit radiation at levels that are 100 times more than allowed in China, Russia, Switzerland and elsewhere

The scientific evidence that there is harm from electromagnetic radiation is overwhelming. Those that don't see that are either ignorant, meaning they just haven't looked, or are being paid by industry insiders, as was the case of many of the people behind these Safety Code 6 changes.

As the president of Microsoft Canada, Frank obviously wasn't against technology. But there is good technology, bad technology and many that are somewhere in the middle. Much of our modern technology has the downside of emitting harmful non-ionizing radiation.

But other technology, such as found in Blushield devices can help to mitigate this. Unlike other supposed EMF protection products, they do not block EMF. Instead they emit their own signal, one that is created in a way that supports human health and cellular communication, that mitigate the negative frequencies these other devices emit.

And if you want more, here's another short clip with Frank Clegg where he shares how little of this modern day technology actually makes its way into his home.

"This is the greatest environmental and safety threat of our time."
-Kevin Mottus

The question is can we actually fight to stop EMF pollution from getting worse on a political and industry level?

Well, there are many people that are aiming to do just that, specifically fighting to stop 5G from rolling out with many more small cells being added to our cities.

What you'll see in the video is an example of that from just a couple months ago.

(And because the industry is so powerful, able to subject "science" to it's whims, there's a real good chance that doesn't happen. That's why we believe Blushield technology is going to become even more essential in the coming years.)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljLynbr5iPc&feature=youtu.be

Kevin Mottus, of the CA Brain Tumor Association spends his time educating legislators regarding the biological health effects of wireless radiation. His team includes cancer epidemiologists, toxicologists, and cellular biologists. He presents the following information:

• FCC doesn’t not have a Health Department that studies the health effects from wireless technology
• New Verizon Wireless TV ad advertises 5G where wavelengths can travel 3,000 feet. He calls for caution to make sure human beings and other living things won’t be affected.
• The brochure from the Verizon Wireless insurance says they do not cover emissions or pollutants emitted by their wireless technology. They define wireless radiation as a pollutant in their printed language.
• Calls for wireless companies to go on record about their devices being safe with no known health effects, because their printed material suggests otherwise.
• He suggests the community be involved in legislature regarding wireless technology because it is bothersome for some California residents as more wireless technologies are being installed in very short distances from their residences.
• No wireless device is required to have safety tests on antennas or any other wireless emissions for health effects. They only test and have a thermal guideline which only guarantees a person doesn’t get burned by the phone or antenna.
• He points out that wired fiber-optics are a safe alternative.
• Calls for State Representatives to speak on behalf of residents to require better solutions from wireless companies.
• A report from the Army on millimeter waves with 350 studies, shows clear biological effects below our thermal safety guidelines. Some of the subjects of the reports were aware of the effects because it effects the skin, nerves and eyes.

Delores Bushong, Public Witness:

• The radiation also effects the health of trees
• Trees can not be planted with wireless towers and poles because they compete for space. Cell towers will continue to take up more space for trees.
• What is the point of putting up more towers if these can transmit over 2,000 feet?

Linnea Warren, Public Witness:

• Suggests 5G is a buzzword and that companies do not know how the technology will be implemented yet, despite already advertising for it.
• "Insider's always joke that the first generation technology is only for suckers."
• 5G will allow lots of data to be transmitted over high-frequency radio waves that have been used for weapons but not for communications because the signals are easily corrupted by walls, trees, rain, etc.
• Antennas will need to have direct access which could mean more towers needing to be built.

Kevin Mottus comes back at the end:

• The only ones that want 5G is the industry itself. 4G may be a better option for the "internet of things".
• Other countries have acknowledged that wireless signals cause cancer and other serious diseases by setting more restrictive exposure laws than the U.S. has.
• 5G and its millimeter waves may have more limitations than 4G. 5G also requires greater power than 4G, and as you increase power it can increase the amount of biological effects.
• The 5G transmitters could collect info on consumers wirelessly, because wireless transmissions are easily hacked. So cybersecurity is a concern.
• Dr. Beatrice Golomb from California, who's an expert in electromagnetic radiation health effects wrote a letter regarding the rollout of small cells and she cited 360 scientific citations pointing to the biological and health effects. Dr. Beatrice is a current professor expert in the field.

What is EMF sensitivity? How does this differ from EMF hypersensitivity?

Since the prefix hyper- means extreme or excessive, it's an indication of a greater degree. Not a black and white thing, but more of a sliding scale.

Really the difference between EMF hypersensitivity and EMF sensitivity is in the level of impact as well as the timing of the effects. Because we're all human, with the same biology more or less and same cellular structures, EMF's are definitely affecting us all. It just isn't necessarily to a level that is consciously notable for many.

In the video (and transcript) below, Building Biologist Oram Miller discusses his experience in the field, symptoms of EMF sensitivity, as well as how this can be related to chemical sensitivities.

Oram Miller on EMF Sensitivity

Oram: My name is Oram Miller. I'm a certified building biology environmental consultant, BBEC, based in Los Angeles, California, working with clients throughout Southern California and nationwide. I am trained and have experience in the full range of building biology work, which is looking at all the sources of toxicity in the home, including out gassing from building materials, mold, chemical out-gassing, as I mentioned, natural gas, lead, asbestos, radon, and electromagnetic fields, which is what I focus on now.

Speaker 2: And, when you say you work nationwide, you could do that by telephone, I guess. How does that work?

Oram: Yes. About 15 to 20% of my clients are people who I've never actually met face to face because they live outside of the state of California or outside of Southern California and I work with them over the phone and through Skype and email over multiple consultations and they become my eyes and ears. They get the meters and instruments that I recommend to them to take readings under my supervision and then I formulate a mitigation plan for the EMF's that we find that they can take care of as well as bringing in a trade's person when necessary, an electrician or a plumber. And this is assuming that they don't have building biologist in their local area who I can...

Speaker 2: Which many people don't at this point.

Oram: Well, yes, but the number's growing fortunately, but there are many people who call me who don't have a building biologist near by. That's true. Just want to mention that the opinions I give are mine and don't represent the official position of the building biology profession. Those symptoms can include a whole range of different things that happen to people. Headaches, chronic fatigue, brain fog, difficulty concentrating, difficulty sleeping, memory loss, numbness and tingling, ringing in the ears. These are all the classic symptoms of electrical hypersensitivity or sensitivity to some of the EMF's.

Speaker 2: So, those things can be caused by a lot of things. How do I know that I've got an EMF problem?

Oram: That's a good question. The answer is trial and error. In other words, noticing that when you're in the presence of some of these fields or devices that are known to produce these fields, you feel worse and then when you move away from them, you feel better.

Speaker 2: So, I will have an instant feeling or relatively quickly when I'm exposed?

Oram: Well, that's also a good question. Most people who are electrically hypersensitive do notice that these symptoms within minutes or even quicker than that. Others, it takes time for the symptoms to develop. Honestly, there are many people out there who don't know that they're sensitive to these fields and mold and chemical, or sensitivity to chemicals in a home, whether it's cleaning supplies or paint or any other sources of out gassing, can also have these same symptoms. So, there is some cross sensitivity to them. We just call it environmental sensitivity and many of the people that we work with who are electrically hypersensitive or EHS, are also multiple chemically sensitive, MCS. There's a lot of cross sensitivity and there are many people in the population who have various nondescript chronic ailments that are not debilitating. They can still function, but they're there in the background that are from these devices. Cell phones, these tablets, smart meters, electric fields and magnetic fields in the home, that go undetected and they don't make this link, although they are seeing this link in other countries, the doctors are, but not here. So, these people don't know that they have that as a source and their doctors don't know because nobody really talks about it here in this country.

Speaker 2: Right. So, I might want to eliminate some chemical issues before I really zero in on the EMF to make sure, like you say, there's no fresh paint or some kind of cleaning solvent or something going on?

Oram: Right. Now, the people who do come to us, who find us, have researched this because there is information on the internet about these sensitivities, both electrically and chemically induced. The thing is, these people just tackle all of it at once and, if they go to the websites for the building biologists, the website for our profession is hbelc.org and my website is createhealthyhomes.com, then you can read about these symptoms and what we do about them, what we identify in homes and how we mitigate that and see and read about the experiences of other people who have these sensitivities who have had one of us come and do an evaluation or they've implemented these recommendations on their own and they've noticed improvement.

Speaker 2: And if I'm able to say, "Oh my gosh. My wifi router might be hurting me.", and I shut it off, how soon would I see some improvement or notice that that's helping?

Oram: Many people who are electrically hypersensitive do notice an improvement within the first few minutes. For some, the ill effect that it creates lingers and they may not notice improvement until the next day. It just depends on how sensitive they are.

Speaker 2: So, give it day or two, clean up some things, give it a day or two, and see how you feel before you're sure?

Oram: Well, here's another way of looking at it. What I say to my clients is, we as building biologists cannot guarantee to any particular client that the work that we do, in identifying and mitigating the elevated levels of electromagnetic fields that we find, will ameliorate or eliminate your symptoms. We can't make that claim because there could be a number of factors that cause the symptoms that the person has. What I have realized over the years, that I can safely say to a client is the following. To the degree that their symptoms are due to the elevated levels of electromagnetic field that we find, and to the degree that the person can follow through on the recommendations that my profession teaches us to recommend to people to reduce and eliminate these fields. That is the degree to which they can expect improvement.

*****

I hope you've found that helpful in understanding a bit more about EMF sensitivity and what you can do about it. You'll find a wealth of information on Oram's website as for what you can do to have a healthy home both as this relates to EMF's and other environmental factors.

There's a whole lot you can do as far as protecting yourself from harmful environmental factors. You should absolutely be taking these steps...

AND, what if we could use EMF's in a way that actually supported our biology? One of the best ways to help protect your home by providing helpful, active and coherent fields is with Blushield technology. Blushield is the only "EMF Protection" on the market the works in this way.

A couple weeks back we posted a frightening video of Barrie Trower discussing how WiFi and other EMF's may cause worse damage to your children's children through damaging egg cells.

We recently came across a court document where Barrie was testifying against Portland public schools that wanted to install WiFi in the schools, which he was fighting against. That court document can be found here.

Feel free to read or scan the 26 pages yourself, but I'll sum up about one page of key points for you here. First off, know that Barrie Trower's credentials are extensive. They include degrees in research and physics, with a specialization in microwaves, and working in microwaves for the military.

Here are just a few of the stand out points he refers to:

• "To my knowledge, 'microwave’ or ‘radiowave sickness' was first reported in August 1932 with the symptoms of severe tiredness, fatigue, fitful sleep, headaches, intolerability and high susceptibility to infection."
• "By 1971, the US Naval Medical Research Institute (NMRI) referenced 2300 research articles listing in excess of 120 impairments and illnesses attributed to radiofrequency and microwave radiation."
• "[E]xtracts from published US Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) Documents confirmed the NMRI research and stated: 'If the more advanced nations of the West are strict in enforcement of stringent exposure standards, there could be unfavourable effects on industrial output and military functions.'".
• "I wish to comment on the telecommunication industry’s own research...Dr. Carlo explained how he was commissioned by the mobile industry to conduct research on its products. His study involved 200 research doctors and 15 epidemiological studies (1993-1999), at a cost of 28.5 million US dollars. ‘Our data showed increased risk to children, concerning tumours, genetic damage and other problems,’ explained Dr Carlo. He continued, ‘my results were suppressed by the telecommunications industry.’"
• "Notwithstanding industry’s attempts to influence research, even their own studies continued to find adverse health effects. One example is a worldwide epidemiological study (commissioned by T-Mobile, on its own product) that concluded, ‘On the cellular level, a multitude of studies found the type of damage from high frequency electromagnetic fields which is important for cancer initiation and cancer promotion.’"
• "The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommended that electromagnetic radiation (which includes WI-FI radiation) be classified as a ‘probable human carcinogen.’"
• "An international study of schools near cell towers or with a cell tower on school premises published a list of impairments and illnesses amongst staff and students, finding with large numbers of cancer clusters and other illnesses."
• "Listing and referencing all such epidemiological studies would be too extensive and repetitive for this article; suffice to say, by 2006, it was reported that 80 percent of the extant epidemiological studies on the WHO database list symptoms from microwave sickness, including up to fourfold increase in cancers from low-level microwaves."
• "On May 6, 2011, the European Parliament was presented with a report recommending that wireless networks and mobile phones be totally banned from schools on health grounds."
• "Professor Adey, a Fellow of the US American Academy of Scientists and a distinguished visitor of the Royal Society of Medicine said of his own research, in parallel with similar studies in Russia in the early 1980s, that they showed that radio frequency and microwave radiation affected enzyme systems that regulate growth and the division of white blood cells."
• "The Health Council of the Netherlands Radio Frequency Radiation Committee says in its 200 page 1997 report, concerning frequencies of 300 Hz to 300 GHz: 'The experimental data indicate that the effects of EM fields occur at lower power densities when the object is exposed to pulsed electromagnetic fields.’ In other words, you will get impairments and illnesses quicker if the microwaves are pulsed."
• "Professor Salford at Lund University in Sweden has shown in his work in the year 2000 that pulsing can alter the permeability of the blood/brain barrier in rats. This would reasonably occur in human brains as well, and could have profound effects on brain function."
• "WI-FI in a classroom is more powerful energy than having a cell tower 300m away. It makes no sense to have WI-FI in the class, especially where cell masts are disallowed."
• "I have always predicted that any school that allows itself to be 'bathed' in microwaves from whatever source will see its sicknesses rise and behaviour fall. I have received many phone calls to confirm this."
• "A study has been carried out on children using an ordinary microwave transmitter, a cell phone. What it found was that after just two minutes’ use of a cell phone, the children had their natural brain waves disrupted for up to two hours thereafter. This is called long-term potentiation, and it can last up to six weeks."
• "I believe the most important research I have read is from Dr. Goldsworthy...[who] not only shows the mechanism by which microwaves disrupt cells, but also predicts that a genetically damaged sperm and egg can lead to mutant offspring."
• "In Sweden, it is published that 3.15 percent of its population is medically recognized and registered as being handicapped from electro-hyper-sensitivity. This number is comparable in California and it is believed to be similar in Australia. The Irish Doctors’ Association believes this figure may actually be as high as 15 percent."
• "[I]t must be stressed that a long-low exposure can be more dangerous than a short-high exposure."

There's also what he pointed out as far as the Russians microwaving the US Embassy! But we'll save that topic for another time.

This and much more was said to do one thing, keep WiFi out of school and out of children. And really the solution could barely be easier:

"There is a simple solution, use a cable and a plug or fibre optic cable to deliver the Internet."

With this in mind, perhaps you want to do away with your own WiFi too?

At the very least get some protection with Blushield. For your home a Blushield Plugin or Cube are great. For something like a school, an Ultra is ideal.

And when you're on the go make sure you have your Portable with you at all times. WiFi is everywhere so even if you get rid of it, others won't be doing so anytime soon.

We hope to bring you even more research in the future proving just how Blushield works to dispel those negative symptoms of electromagnetic sensitivity, as many of our happy customers are finding.

We recently shared about the dangers of 5G in a recent post. And there is far more on the subject. This shorter video has Dr. Sharon Goldberg testifying before the senate for Senate Bill 637 a couple months ago.

There are some fascinating points you may have not heard before such as EMF's connection to diabetes and mental health.

Here's the transcript of the video:

I'm Sharon Goldberg, I'm an internal medicine physician. I've practiced medicine for 21 years and my background is mostly academic, internal medicine, hospital based, clinical research and medical education.

I am going to skip many of the things I wanted to say because I didn't realize it was only five minutes. Wireless radiation has biological effects, period. This is no longer a subject for debate. When you look at PubMed and the peer review literature, these effects are seen in all lifeforms, plants, animals, insects, microbes. In humans, we have clear evidence of cancer now, there is no question. We have evidence of DNA damage, cardiomyopathy, which is the precursor of congestive heart failure, neuropsychiatric effects,

So 5G is not a conversation about whether or not these biological effects exist. They clearly do. 5G is a conversation about unsustainable healthcare expenditures. Why do I say this? We'd been sitting on the evidence for EMR and chronic disease for decades and now we're seeing all these epidemics appearing.

So diabetes is the first epidemic. I think most of you know the statistics. They're very scary. One in three American children will become diabetic in their lifetime, and if they're Hispanic females, the number is one in two. Okay, so what does this have to do with wireless radiation. Wireless radiation, and other electromagnetic fields, such as magnetic fields and dirty electricity, have been clearly associated with elevated blood sugar and diabetes. That is what the Peer Review Literature says. It is not opinion.

The closer you live to a cell tower, the higher your blood glucose that is based on hemoglobin a1c measurements. So the idea with small cells of putting the cells closer to people's homes and bedrooms scientifically is very dangerous. And from an economic perspective, it's dangerous. And you may not know this, I was shocked to find this out, but the way you create a diabetic...model of diabetes in rats in the lab is by exposing them to 2.4 gigahertz. And this is not for long term exposure.

So ,I don't have time to talk about the costs, but the huge problem with diabetes really is chronic kidney disease. End stage renal disease, the worst complication of diabetes, leads to hemodialysis. Hemodialysis is an automatic qualification for Medicare and if you don't qualify for Medicare, we still have to dialyze the patient and the state ends up paying in many different instances. So renal failure is one percent of Medicare, but it takes up seven percent of all medicare expenditures.

I don't have time to talk about this anymore, but once again we have...so the other epidemics that clearly linked from the science with electromagnetic radiation are related to mental health. And this is, this is straight from PubMed. This isn't my opinion. This is science, okay?

Questioner: For those of us who aren't physicians. What is PubMed?

I'm sorry. It's just the, the National Library of medicine. This is where you would go. This is just the peer reviewed literature. So we have three epidemics that clearly that they're essentially one epidemic. We have deterioration of mental health in the United States. And if you look really at the science, what does it show? And these epidemics are our suicide epidemic, epidemics in violent crime, so shootings and the opioid epidemic. And I don't have five minutes is not the time to talk about this. This is in the peer reviewed literature. I have a file to submit for the record, but these are facts. These are, and these are things that have just been glossed over by the wireless industry and I really don't have time to talk about them in five minutes. I wish I did, but we need to examine our epidemics in the context of our EMF exposures.

What does that mean? That means that the CDC tracking these epidemics, needs to. We need to start measuring how much radiation are people being exposed to and before we roll out 5G and this means there are four kinds of electromagnetic fields that we know are harmful to human health. So radio frequency, radiation, magnetic fields, dirty electricity and electric fields. Our exposure, any given person, and all humans are affected by EMF, our given exposure, has nothing to do with the research that my colleagues are going to site with the National Toxicology Program. That is an assessment of the risk of one cell phone in the near field. Okay.

What is our exposure in a day? It's not one cell phone, it's cell phones. It's multiple wireless networks, it's smart meters, it's cell towers, it's the sandwich and it all adds up and this is a serious problem for occupational health, public safety and personal safety, and I feel that it's irresponsible to be even talking about the Internet of things and rolling out a new untested technology when we're not even measuring what are our current exposures from the current networks.

Will this information and intelligent people like Sharon Goldberg testifying be enough to stop the 5G rollout? Unfortunately, I doubt it. And even if so we're still awash in 4G, WiFi, cell phones, cell towers and more. That's where Blushield comes in. Blushield products are the only ones that actively create a coherent field your body's cells can attune to that may mitigate the effects of all kinds of EMF radiation.

This new piece of research just came across my desk and I thought it was worth sharing. For anyone that says there is no evidence of negative health effects, such as cancer, from cell phones and other EMF producing devices, they’re either willfully ignorant (because it’s not hard to find) or purposefully misleading you (as many in the industry are).

This one is fairly black and white:

• Clear evidence of tumors in the hearts of male rats. The tumors were malignant schwannomas.
• Some evidence of tumors in the brains of male rats. The tumors were malignant gliomas.
• Some evidence of tumors in the adrenal glands of male rats. The tumors were benign, malignant, or complex combined pheochromocytoma.

A couple images from the research showing weakening of the heart and malignant cancer in the brain respectively.

This new research comes from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, part of the National Institute of Health. You can find the news release about it here.

Or access the full 384 page PDF report of the research here.

Here are some of the finer points:

• In female rats, as well as male and female mice, the evidence was not certain enough as to whether cancers observed were associated with exposure to RFR but it likely was related.
• One possible reason why this may be the case is that exposure for rats began in the womb, while in the mice it was when they were 5 to 6 weeks old. John Bucher, Ph.D., NTP senior scientist, stated, “In our studies, rats and mice received radio frequency radiation across their whole bodies. By contrast, people are mostly exposed in specific local tissues close to where they hold the phone. In addition, the exposure levels and durations in our studies were greater than what people experience.”As was recently covered in this video, this prenatal exposure may be much worse than other forms of exposure.
• They used higher power levels than what humans will typically interface with...but these were 2G and 3G phones...when we're moving onto 5G. Michael Wyde, Ph.D., lead toxicologist on the study, said, “5G is an emerging technology that hasn’t really been defined yet. From what we currently understand, it likely differs dramatically from what we studied."
• Even though they found effects there's still some fishiness to this report. They mention "Unlike ionizing radiation or ultraviolet radiation, RFR is not sufficiently energetic, by several orders of magnitude, to directly damage macromolecules and little is known about the mechanisms by which RFR could induce DNA damage in the absence of thermal." Somehow these top researchers in the field aren't aware of Dr. Martin Pall's proposed mechanism of how intracellular calcium is increased with EMFs.
• Paradoxically, the RFR-exposed male rats lived longer than non-exposed rats! This was attributed to a lower severity of a natural, age-related kidney disease typically observed in male rats...which might have something to do with that calcium. (I wouldn't count on EMF's increasing your lifespan.)

They sum it up by saying that with these cell phones there was "clear evidence of carcinogenic activity". Clear evidence from a big organization, part of NIH.

There you have it.

That's why we've been talking about How to Reduce Radiation from Cell Phones and other related topics here for a while now. Despite the evidence, if you're like most people you're not going to be getting rid of your cell phone. I'm not! But you can keep it away from your head and away from your body as much as possible.

And of course you can use Blushield technology to help support your body's cellular signaling to not receive the same destructive effects. I do both and recommend you do too.

Have you ever felt weird when you arrive at work? Ever experience sheer exhaustion before you even get the day started? It is not uncommon to experience electromagnetic sensitivity...it's just not commonly labeled as such. Symptoms of such are dizziness, headaches, nausea, pains throughout the mouth, teeth and jaw, looming cold or flu symptoms that never actually arrive, swelling in the nose, throat and sinus without infection, joint and muscle pain, concentration and memory loss and in some cases even a burning sensation similar to sunburn.

When learning how to protect yourself from electromagnetic fields it is important to understand the sources of EMFs, as well how to adjust your life to no longer be negatively impacted by these areas. Or at least to reduce the impact. That's because there is no way to escape EMF exposure in your life.

While man-made technology is benefiting us all in an big way, this progress comes with a price. The usage and reliance on the things we have grown accustomed to using for our survival (such as cell phones, computers, lighting, television, and many more) generate these invisible types of radiation. Electromagnetic fields are generally identified by frequency or wavelength into either non-ionizing or ionizing. Non-ionizing means that this level of radiation is usually seen as nontoxic to humans (at least that's what some say), while ionizing indicates higher levels of radiation that has the potential for DNA and cell damage.

Right now we'll focus on one of the biggest culprits for most people, as it's always on them. I'm talking about cell phones.

8 Most Effective Ways to Lessen Cell Phone Radiation

1.) One of the first and easiest tips is to use the “Airplane” mode. This will prevent your device from emitting microwave radiation. Along with this, you can turn off the antennas, even the cellular data, Bluetooth and WiFi. Of course, doing so it won't be able to make a call, message or do anything on the internet. But you really don't need your phone on all of the time. This can be a great option, for instance, if you sleep with your phone by you to use as an alarm clock.

2.) Avoid storing your phone close to the body. This means keeping it from laying in your pocket, next to your chest, or any other convenient carrying spots against your body. It is best to avoid placing it near your head or reproductive organs (genitals and breasts, especially for women). It's well proven that cell phones reduce sperm count in men, for instance. Keep it in a purse or in a pocket that is further away from the important areas.

3.) Opt for using the speakerphone for calls. At this time both iPhones and androids alike offer really great speaker quality built into their devices. Please use and keep far away from the body as you possibly can. You'll even notice in the warnings that come with the devices, if you read the small print, that they do NOT recommend holding the phone up to your head.

4.) Skip the Bluetooth headsets. These products are designed to make you more functional but there is a little bit of a price to pay with such devices. These products are simply dynamic transmitters, this is in addition to the radiation already released from your phone near the reproductive organs, where it is typically carried.

5.) Another option, when Bluetooth or speakerphone is not possible for calls is an Airtube headset. This AirTube headset works to reduce the radiation experienced during a call by removing the wire to in-ear speaker and replacing it with an air tube. The AirTube blocks the microwave signal from reaching your inner ear.

6.) Be aware that your mobile phone case can sometimes make your phone worse! And some can make it a bit safer. Find out more in this article.

7.) Want to go a step further? Substitute! Try using a corded landline device or wired internet via ethernet for Skype, Facetiming and other forms of video chatting, or going online. Do this instead of using your cell phone. Dr. Mercola mentions in this interview that using cords and wires is one of the best ways to minimize EMF exposure.

8.) For anyone who keeps their cell phone close, try the keeping the Blushield Disc also on your body. It is intended for use outside of the home. It is perfect for quick errands or outings. This device was crafted for protection from WiFi radiation by building a coherent field for your body to adapt too. It is best to reduce your cell phone exposure otherwise, but having something like the Disc gives you an added layer of protection. And when you're in your house the field of a Blushield Plugin can do the same.

Remember, distance is your friend when it comes to protection against WiFi or cell phone radiation. If you use your phone a lot, pick one or more of these tips to start following today.
