Once again, a new mobile phone study has demonstrated the negative health effects of mobile phone radiation. Children are particularly sensitive to electromagnetic radiation. Stress and burnout are often the result of excessive exposure to radiation.
Electrosmog is spreading secretly, quietly and silently in our residential areas. This is not just about the many cordless and cell phones, Wi-Fi and more and more networked household items such as bathroom scales, outdoor and indoor thermometers, refrigerators, radiators, light switches, etc.. We are talking about the smart meter, the electricity meter of the future, which is already installed in many homes today and is set to be used in almost all households by 2020. A new source of radiation is penetrating our private sphere almost unnoticed and is making a major contribution to the general threat to our health.
At the political level, efforts are currently underway in Switzerland to increase the limit values for mobile phone installations and high-voltage power lines. Switzerland's competitiveness is at the forefront of this.
Despite current studies and warnings about the health risks of mobile phone radiation, investment in wireless telecommunications is continuing apace, including in schools. However, as recent inspections have shown, the transmission masts often do not comply with the specifications in the building permits.
Barmer-GEK, one of the major German health insurance companies, summarized the findings of epidemiologists in its 2013 medical report under the heading "Generation ADHD is growing up". The underlying study found that almost 20 percent of all boys and 7.8 percent of girls born in 2000 had been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) between 2006 and 2011. Even if the prescription of the most common drug Ritalin has even shown a slight downward trend since then, the all-clear cannot be given. On the one hand, the prescription of so-called neuroleptics, a special type of psychotropic drug, has risen sharply in children at the same time. On the other hand, in the 15 years before that, i.e. in the period from 1998 to 2013, the consumption of the Ritalin active ingredient methylphenidate had increased around tenfold(source).
Although more and more doctors, researchers and those affected are warning of the dangers of mobile phone radiation, in many places the authorities are not taking the signals seriously. A new documentary looks at the health risks of mobile telephony and shows the machinations used by the industry to defend itself against critics.
Scientists today often find it difficult to take a critical look at the risks of radio frequency radiation from cell phones or WLAN. In contrast, others leave no stone unturned to suppress critical investigations. Michal Witthöft, whose study in summer 2013 entitled "Bei Anruf Hysterie" (On Call Hysteria), according to a report by gigaherz.chThe Swiss Association of Electrosmog Affected People, which was pushed by a science journalist in the Swiss press, in particular by the NZZ, which has close ties to the business world, apparently wants to find out once again: Now promoted to science professor and head of the Department of Clinical Psychology at Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, he is once again looking for test subjects for a new experiment to prove the so-called NOCEBO effect caused by electromagnetic fields (non-ionizing radiation) emanating from high-voltage power lines, cell phones and WLAN routers or similar. If you would like to be electrically tickled by machine for scientific purposes in order to demonstrate to mankind once again that the effects of non-ionizing radiation on humans, animals and plants are purely psychological in nature and would like to treat yourself to a fun day in Mainz, please do. Here are the registration conditions.
What doctors have long suspected has now been confirmed by a new study from the University of Haifa: electromagnetic radiation from cell phones can damage male fertility. In the diagnose:funk focus "Smartphones & tablets damage testicles, sperm and embryos", the explosive study situation is documented for the first time for the public: 130 studies and 13 "reviews" prove that pulsed microwave radiation endangers male sperm and the healthy development of the embryo. In almost no other area are the results of mobile phone research as extensive and unambiguous as on damage to the reproductive organs.
According to a study commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Family Affairs and published in mid-2015, only around three quarters of childless men and women between the ages of 20 and 50 have no offspring by choice. For around 25 percent of couples, the desire to have children remains unfulfilled. One of the possible reasons for this could be the increasing exposure to radiation due to the digitalization of our world. As the following explanations show, there is a connection between decreasing fertility and increasing mobile phone radiation.
Waking up with the cell phone alarm clock, driving to work with Google Maps, ordering lunch online, communicating with friends and colleagues via Whatsapp, planning the evening with the help of an app: life without a smartphone is unimaginable for many people. However, few people realize the consequences of this dependency.
