The newest evidence from the government’s National Toxicology Program indicates more than 90 studies show that the radiation emitted by cell phones and other wireless devices can damage DNA, the first step on the road to cancer. It used to be thought that the tissues must “heat up” with radio frequency exposure in order to …

After presenting several articles on cell phone safety, I found this down-to-earth piece in Time Magazine. It’s an easy-to-understand quick read which reveals flaws in the test results that manufacturers use to state that cell phones are safe. This could also be used to separate them from liability should you develop a tumor from cell …
[courtesy CNET News] Until today, the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) had said that there were no adverse health effects from the use of cell phones. The wireless industry, including the CTIA lobbying group, and the Federal Communications Commission and U.S. Food and Drug Administration have also long maintained that …

As most of you know, I have worked in the RF (radio frequency) industry, now better known as the wireless industry, throughout my life. My work has always involved both RF receivers and transmitters, and RF transmitters come with health risks unless precautions are taken. With the unprecedented increase in cordless phone usage, especially in homes …
Arguably on the same scale as the the plague, swine flu, and the tobacco-lung cancer relationship, the connection between cellphones and brain tumors is undeniable. Efforts to show there was no connection, and that cellphones are totally safe, came from the cell phone industry itself, not independent studies. The report described and available below not …
George Carlo, PhD, JD, is an epidemiologist and medical scientist who, from 1993 to 1999, headed the first telecommunications industry-backed studies into the dangers of cell phone use. That program remains the largest in the history of the issue. But he ran afoul of the very industry that hired him when his work revealed preventable …
