<title>Greek Study Shows Regions of the Brain Related to Learning, Memory, Alzheimer's</title>
<description>A Greek study led by Adamantia Fragopoulou and Lukas Margaritis has demonstrated important protein changes in the brain of animals following whole body exposure to RF electromagnetic fields, similar to the kind of microwave radiation emitted from cell phones, portable phones, WiFi and wireless computer equipment. The study, was published in Electromagnetic Biology and Medicine, Early Online: 1-25, 2012.<br />
<br />
Important regions of the brain necessary for learning, memory and other functions of the mammalian brain were impacted by the microwave radiation, including the hippocampus, cerebellum and frontal lobe, at exposures below the ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) safety guidelines.  A total of 143 proteins in the brain were impacted by the RF radiation over a period of 8 months, providing new evidence for a potential relationship between everyday cell phone use, wireless transmitters and wireless computer equipment and electrosensitivity symptoms, such as headaches, dizziness and sleep disorders, as well as with tumors, Alzheimer's and even metabolic effects.<br />
<br />
The study simulated 3 hours of cell phone exposure over eight months, 8 hours of DECT portable phone exposure over eight months, and included a sham exposure control group. The results showed both down regulation and up regulation of the proteins.<br />
<br />
Several neural function related proteins (i.e. Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP), Alpha-synuclein, Glia Maturation Factor beta (GMF), and apolipoprotein E (apoE)), heat shock proteins, and cytoskeletal proteins (i.e. neurofilaments and tropomodulin), were shown to be impacted by the radiation, as well as proteins of the brain metabolism (i.e. Aspartate aminotransferase, Glutamate dehydrogenase), in nearly all of the brain regions studied.<br />
<br />
Figure 2 from the study shows the 143 proteins that have changed (up- or down-regulated) and their functional relationship based on a literature survey.<br />

<title>tips on how to buy a cell phone jammer</title>
<description>1. Determin your local wireless network frequency. Such as, in North America, GSM operates on the primary mobile communication bands 850 MHz and 1900 MHz. America uses 700MHz (Verizon Wireless &amp; AT&amp;T 4G LTE), 850Mhz, 1900MHz, 1700/2100MHz (T-Mobile 3G 4G network), 2500MHz(Sprint 4G Network) for their 2G 3G and 4G networks. In Africa, Europe, Middle East and Asia most of the providers use 900 MHz and 1800 MHz bands.<br />
2. Determin your local wireless communications service providers. In America, the six largest are Verizon (GSM CDMA CDMA2000 LTE, etc), AT&amp;T(GSM UMTS WCDMA, etc), Sprint(CDMA, iDEN), T-Mobile USA(GSM UMTS WCDMA, etc), TracFone Wireless, and MetroPCS. You can also invite the Wireless Advisor website, it can be a useful source of information on the frequency Verizon is using in your area.<br />
3. Determin how much area you need the cell phone jammer to cover.<br />

<title>Dr Andrew Goldsworthy / Wi-Fi in Schools Nov 2011</title>
<description>Wi-Fi in Schools Nov 2011                                 	Dr Andrew Goldsworthy<br />
Most of the damage done by digital telecommunications is not due to heating  but by the electrical effect their pulsating signals have on living tissues, which occurs at much lower energy levels. <br />
The human body can act as an antenna and the signals make electric currents flow through it in time with the pulsations. It is this that does the bulk of the damage by destabilising the delicate membranes that surround each cell and also divide it into internal compartment such as mitochondria (the energy factories of the cell) and the lysosomes (the cell’s recycling factories).<br />
All of these membranes are just two molecules thick and have a similar basic structure. They are liquid crystals, made largely of negatively charged molecules  (which repel one another) stabilised by divalent positive ions (mostly calcium) that sit in between them by mutual attraction and hold them together like mortar holds together the bricks in a wall.<br />
It was first shown by Bawin et. al. in the 1970s that weak amplitude modulated radio waves, where the strength of the signal rises and falls at low frequencies, could remove some of this calcium from brain cell membranes. This destabilises them and make them more likely to leak. The low frequency pulsations of Wi-Fi and mobile phone signals can be expected to behave in much the same way.-<br />
This is important in the brain because the normal function of brain cells depends on the controlled passage of specific ions through their membranes. When these membranes leak, ions flow through them in a relatively uncontrolled way, which results in brain hyperactivity and may cause attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in some people. When this occurs in the brain of a foetus or very young child it prevents normal brain development, which may result in autism (see <a href="http://mcs-america.org/june2011pg2345.pdf">http://mcs-america.org/june2011pg2345.pdf</a> ) .  Wi-Fi should therefore be considered as an impediment rather than an aid to learning and may be particularly hazardous for pregnant teachers.<br />
Effects on the peripheral nervous system are equally damaging since hyperactivity here causes false sensations such as pain, heat, cold, and pins and needles in some people (i.e. symptoms of electromagnetic hypersensitivity).  Hyperactivity in the cells of the inner ear can cause tinnitus and affect the sense of balance causing dizziness and symptoms of motion sickness, including nausea. Pupils showing any of these symptoms should be treated with sympathy and the Wi-Fi switched off.<br />
Many other effects on health can be attributed to membrane leakage, including damage to DNA due to the release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from mitochondria, and digestive enzymes from lysosomes. Such DNA damage can cause a loss of fertility and an increased risk of getting cancer.<br />
Membrane leakage can also open the blood-brain barrier, leading to Alzheimer’s disease and early dementia. There are similar barriers protecting all of our body surfaces from foreign chemicals. Damage to these can cause or exacerbate a variety of illnesses, including asthma, multiple allergies and autoimmune disorders such as multiple sclerosis. More on these, including references, can be found at  <a href="http://www.hese-project.org/hese-uk/en/papers/cell_phone_and_cell.pdf">http://www.hese-project.org/hese-uk/en/papers/cell_phone_and_cell.pdf</a>  <br />
Fortunately, because of genetic variability, not everyone will suffer the same symptoms and many may suffer none at all but, for the sake of those that do suffer, Wi-Fi is not a good idea in schools or anywhere else for that matter.<br />

<title>"Magnetite and Cryptochromes" may explain why we feel Emfs</title>
<description>Kindly sent from Denis L Henshaw<br />
<br />
1. Kirshvink re magnetite in the human brain<br />
This paper shows that magnetite is there and therefore it could detect low level magnetic fields from a variety of sources. As I indicated, the level of other research on magnetite in the human body is limited - i.e. more research is needed here, but man could detect EMFs via magnetite particles in the brain<br />
<br />
2. Foley et al<br />
This paper shows that human cryptochromes in fruit flies are magneto-sensitive.<br />
Again it establishes the principle that EMFs can be detected by man by a second mechanism<br />
<br />
3. Henshaw &amp; Reiter<br />
This decribes studies showing that EMFs disrupt melatonin in humans, from which adverse health effects can result.<br />

<title>A sixth sense: Aquatic vertebrates detect weak electrical fields in the water</title>
<description>Sharks, paddlefishes and certain other aquatic vertebrates have a sixth sense: They can detect weak electrical fields in the water and use this information to detect prey, communicate and orient themselves.<br />
<br />
A study in the Oct. 11 issue of Nature Communications that caps more than 25 years of work finds that the vast majority of vertebrates – some 30,000 species of land animals (including humans) and a roughly equal number of ray-finned fishes – descended from a common ancestor that had a welldeveloped electroreceptive system.<br />

<title>PUBMED EVIDENCE FOR EHS</title>

Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity: Evidence for a Novel Neurological Syndrome.<br />

Abstract<br />
<br />
ABSTRACT Objective: We sought direct evidence that acute exposure to environmental-strength electromagnetic fields (EMFs) could induce somatic reactions (EMF hypersensitivity). Methods: The subject, a female physician self-diagnosed with EMF hypersensitivity, was exposed to an average (over the head) 60-Hz electric field of 300 V/m (comparable with typical environmental-strength EMFs) during controlled provocation and behavioral studies. Results: In a double-blinded EMF provocation procedure specifically designed to minimize unintentional sensory cues, the subject developed temporal pain, headache, muscle twitching, and skipped heartbeats within 100 s after initiation of EMF exposure (p &lt; .05). The symptoms were caused primarily by field transitions (off-on, on-off) rather than the presence of the field, as assessed by comparing the frequency and severity of the effects of pulsed and continuous fields in relation to sham exposure. The subject had no conscious perception of the field as judged by her inability to report its presence more often than in the sham control. Discussion: The subject demonstrated statistically reliable somatic reactions in response to exposure to subliminal EMFs under conditions that reasonably excluded a causative role for psychological processes. Conclusion: EMF hypersensitivity can occur as a bona fide environmentally inducible neurological syndrome.<br />

<title>This is a real "wow" moment in terms of my understanding of EHS</title>
<description><br />
Prof. Dominique Belpomme, Oncologist, Professor of the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Necker-Enfants Malades, Chairman of Research for Anti-Cancer Therapeutics (ARTAC), in his lecture “Diagnostic and Therapeutic Protocols for Electromagnetic Fields Intolerance”, showed the results of a clinical observation on more than 450 patients enrolled from 2008 to 2011. He and his team use a new technique to make the diagnosis to people reporting reactions to electromagnetic fields, a condition that he prefers to define as “Electromagnetic Fields Intolerance” or “EFI Syndrome” rather than “Electromagnetic Hyper-Sensitivity”.<br />
<br />
The new technique is the “Pulsed Eco-Doppler” of the brain that combines the eco-doppler with a computer to evaluate brain perfusion. Unlike some other methods, this one is not dangerous and it does not involve any ionizing radiation. The results show that people with Electromagnetic Fields Intolerance have a reduced perfusion in the brain, particularly in the left part of the limbic area of the brain, compared to the control group. This is a very particular area, because it is the “ancient” part of the brain that controls many body functions.<br />
<br />
“These results are very important – Belpomme said at the congress – because for the first time we are able to define the Electromagnetic Fields Intolerance as a physical illness based on objective tests”.<br />
<br />
His team uses also other tests, such as the dosage of histamine, of protein S100B, and of heat shock proteins hsp70 and hsp27 in the blood. The 70% of the group of patients observed showed a serious reduction of vitamin D, about 1-2% of the patients showed an increase of proteins hsp27 and hsp70, while more than the 40% of the sample had increased histamine, a fact that is fully compatible with a physiological interpretation of this syndrome.<br />
<br />
About 10% of the patients had an increased protein S100B, which is a marker for Blood Brain Barrier (BBB) permeability. In one third of the sample, a reduction of melatonin in urine was found, and this can explain symptoms such as fatigue, insomnia and depression in these patients.<br />
<br />
These alterations are quite similar to the ones found in patients with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) &lt;<a href="http://www.csn-deutschland.de/DIMDI_MCS_2008_de-en.pdf&gt;">http://www.csn-deutschland.de/DIMDI_MCS_2008_de-en.pdf&gt;</a> , particularly regarding the brain perfusion reduction, the neurogenic inflammation, the oxidative stress increase, and the reduction of the defense mechanism. The fact that EMF induces the opening of the BBB may interfere with the brain protection from toxic chemicals. It is not uncommon, in fact, that patients with EFI Syndrome have MCS symptoms, while many patients with MCS also react to EMF.<br />

<title>How does science affect the understanding of humans and society?</title>
<description>I'm writing an essay on how literature and science affect the understanding of humanity and society. I've got the literature part down pretty well, but I am absolutely stuck on the science part. I have to choose either between natural sciences or human sciences and relate it to reason, but I don't have any specific examples. Can you give me a few?<br />
