Evidence That RF/Microwave Radiation Used For Wireless Technologies is a Confirmed Human Carcinogen!

Top mobile firms know that they sell cancer!

Guy Air Force Study at University of Washington Medical School (1980-1982) [4]

This research, documented in nine technical reports, evaluated rats with full-body exposure to 2.45 gigahertz (2450 megahertz), the main frequency used today for omnipresent Wi-Fi technologies.

The animals were exposed to one half the federally-approved, maximum environmental human exposure allowable. These rats suffered an average absorption rate (SAR) of 0.4W/kg, certified by the FCC as "safe" for humans.
In addition to a statistically significant incidence of malignant tumors, the exposed rats suffered disastrous effects to their adrenal glands and to their entire endocrine system, including development of endocrine tumors.
(Can we wonder why so many microwaved Americans suffer from adrenal exhaustion, thyroid malfunction, obesity and endocrine tumors?)  LINK




  Note:
By 1993, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) produced a memo which stated that animal studies strongly suggest that microwaves can "accelerate the development of cancer." Top FDA officials wrote: "Of eight chronic animal experiments known to us, five resulted in increased numbers of malignancies, accelerated progression of tumors, or both." [5]  LINK

  EMF Paper by the Hardell Group in Sweden (1995)  [6]


A team of cancer researchers at Orebro Hospital in Orebro, Sweden, reviewed epidemiological and experimental studies on the bioeffects of extremely low electromagnetic (ELF) fields published up to 1994.
They found that these studies confirmed an increased risk of leukemia in children exposed to power lines; an increased risk of chronic lymphocytic leukemia from ELF exposure; also an increased risk of breast cancer, malignant melanoma of the skin, nervous system tumors, acute myeloid leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and acute lymphocytic leukemia from occupational exposure to these fields.
Today's wireless antennas propagate a great variety of ELF modulation frequencieswhich are superimposed upon the carrier microwaves.  LINK

Australian Lymphoma Study (1997) [7]

Australian researchers exposed lymphoma-susceptible mice to pulsed 900 megahertz radiation for up to 18 months, with twice-daily exposures at 30 minutes each. The signals were devised to mimic cell GSM phone radiation, but the mice received far-field exposure, as compared to the near field of cell phone radiation that directly enters human brains.
At the end of the experiment, 43% of exposed mice had developed lymphoma compared to 22% of non-irradiated controls. The exposed mice also suffered accelerated development of cancer compared to controls. Scientists conducting the study called the increased incidence of lymphoma in irradiated animals "highly significant" and they stated that it is unlikely accelerated cancer growth in microwaved animals was due to chance.
Lead researcher, Dr. Michael Rapacholi, told Microwave News: "I believe this is the first animal study showing a true non-thermal effect."  LINK





  Note:
By 2000, European researchers with the ECOLOG Institute in Germany had amassed over 220 peer-reviewed and published scientific papers containing strong indications for cancer-initiating and cancer-promoting effects of the RF/microwave radiation that now saturates our environment to accommodate wireless technologies.
This impressive
scientific collection was organized and published at the turn of this century in a document titled Mobile Telecommunications and Health. Actually funded by giants of the telecom industry, the ECOLOG study organized a massive collection of early scientific information on the devastating cellular, hormonal, immunological, neurological and reproductive damage inflicted by pulsed, high-frequency electromagnetic fields. This collection demonstrates that governments and industry profiteers knew decades ago that the unleashing of unlimited RF/microwave pollution --even at very low power densities-- has potential to make humanity very sick indeed.  [8]

 Case-control Study by the Hardell Group in Sweden (2002)  [9]

Nordic countries were among the first in the world to adopt wireless telecommunications technologies. NMT analog mobile phones came into use in 1981, exposing Nordic populations to 450 and 900 megahertz microwave radiation.
By 1991, GSM digital wireless was operational at 900 megahertz and 1.9 gigahertz. Responding to reports of brain cancers in wireless phone users, the Hardell team working at Orebro Hospital in Orebro, Sweden, initiated a case-control study of 233 Swedish brain cancer victims diagnosed between 1994 to 1996
This study produced the first indications of increased risk for malignancies in those who had used wireless NMT phones.
The researchers concluded: “Ipsilateral (same side) use of a cellular telephone increased the risk of tumors in the temporal, temporoparietal and occipital areas…the anatomical areas with highest exposure to microwaves from a mobile phone.” LINK




___


Case-control Study by the Hardell Group in Sweden (2003)  [10]


On to something big, the Hardell Group conducted a case-control study of 1,617 brain tumor patients diagnosed between 1997-2000.
These numbers showed that the risk for high-grade astrocytoma brain cancer was significantly increased with ipsilateral (same side) use of analogue mobile phones, digital mobile phones and also cordless phones.
The odds ratio was highest for development of microwave-induced acoustic neuroma (AN), a usually benign but dangerous tumor that grows on the nerve between the ear and the brain, causing hearing loss and neurological difficulties.
AN treatment requires surgery and other risky, invasive procedures.  LINK




Note:

Astrocytomas are the most common primary tumors of the central nervous system. Astrocytomas develop from small, star-shaped cells called astrocytes, and may arise anywhere in the brain or spinal cord.  Grade IV astrocytomas are called glioblastoma multiforme (GBM),considered the most horrific and incurable type of brain tumor. Glioblastomas and anaplastic astrocytomas, accounting for more than 50 percent of all astrocytomas, grow rapidly and spread aggressively.

The average lifespan after diagnosis is about 400 days (most of which, reportedly, aren't worth a darn). Brain cancers are often discovered in the final stages, partly because of stealth proteins used by tumors in early malignancy to evade the body's alarm systems.

European Union REFLEX Studies (2004) [11]


Scientists from ten EU nations showed that cell phone microwaves propagated at 1.8 gigahertz induce severe damage in human blood cellsidentical to that produced by ionizing nuclear radiation.
A mere 24 hours of continuous microwave radiation at this frequency produced cell damage equivalent to 2400 chest X-rays.
This frequency is within the gigahertz spectrum realm of 2G, 3G and 4G wireless phone radiation.  LINK




___


Italian Study on Human Leukemia Cells (2004) [12]

Italian scientists published results of a laboratory study which exposed human leukemia cells to radio waves at 900 MHz, the same frequency band used for GSM cell phone technology and smart utility meters.
The radiation initially killed some of the malignant cells.
But after 48 hours, the microwaves activated three types of genes known to induce cancer cells to multiply. The surviving leukemia cells then began to divide aggressively due to activation of pro-survival signals critical for tumorprogression and metastasis [spreading] of cancer.
The study report concludes, "Our data strongly support the hypothesis that high-frequency EMFs exposure leads cancer cells to acquire a greater survival chance, a phenomenon linked to tumor aggressiveness."

Here scientists induced human leukemia cells to activate ferociously at a SAR of only 
3.5 mW/kg while the FCC allows wireless devices to excrete 1600 mW/kg [1.6 W/kg] directly into human brains!  LINK



Specific absorption rate (SAR) is a measure of the rate at which energy is absorbed by the human body when exposed to a radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic field. It can also refer to absorption of other forms of energy by tissue, including ultrasound.[1] It is defined as the power absorbed permass of tissue and has units of watts per kilogram (W/kg).[2][3]

     Case-control Combined Studies By the Hardell Group in Sweden (2006) [13]

The Hardell Group evaluated statistics from two new case-control studies of brain cancer victims diagnosed between 1997-2000.
Combined, these studies yielded information on 905 patients. Once again the numbers showed increased risk for high-grade astrocytoma brain cancer in those who used digital cell phones and/or cordless phones.
This study demonstrated a high risk of cancer for victims who had begun using microwave phones before the age of twenty. This research also determined that cancer risk was highest for people who had used wireless phones for 10 years or more.  LINK

Researchers Report Epidemiological Evidence for Cell Tower Cancer (2010) [14]


Six internationally renowned researchers organized numerous epidemiological studies showing that people living and working within 1600 feet of RF/microwave antennas eventually suffer serious health problems.
Published in the International Journal of Occupational and Environmental Health, this report says:
“Human populations are increasingly exposed to microwave/radiofrequency (RF) emissions from wireless communication technology, including mobile phones and their base stations.
By searching PubMed…we found that eight of the ten studies reported increased prevalence of adverse neurobehavioral symptoms or cancer in populations living at distances less than 500 meters from base stations….None of the studies reported exposures above accepted international guidelines, suggesting that current guidelines may be inadequate in protecting the health of human populations….At exposure levels far below international guidance levels there are clear and consistent signs of adverse health effects in the general population….”  LINK

Pooled Analysis of Case-Control Studies/Malignant Brain Tumors by Hardell  (2011) [15]


The Hardell Group further analyzed two case-control studies involving 1251 brain tumor victims, alive and deceased, who had been diagnosed during 1997-2003. 
This study again confirmed that risk for high-grade astrocytoma brain cancer increases with latency periodand cumulative hours of exposure to both cellular and cordless phones. Once again the numbers showed increased risk for those who used microwave phones for over ten years. This study also reconfirmed an extremely high risk for those who had begun the use of microwave phones before the age of 20
This group charted out at an odds ratio of 4.9. An odds ratio of 1 means no risk, an odds ratio of 4.9 means nearly five time the risk for brain cancer as found in the control group. LINK





___


The 13-Nation Interphone Study (2011) [16]

The Interphone Study was designed as a global, case-control inquiry on the link between mobile phones/cordless phones and various cancers. 
The research was conducted in 13 countries using a common protocol. The pooled results showed anincrease in risk for glioma brain cancer and acoustic neuroma among microwave phone users, but directors of the study worried that recall bias and error may have prevented a causal interpretation. 
In 2011, Cardis et al., published an overview of five of the countries in the study and stated that "there were increased odds ratios for tumors in the most exposed parts of the brain in those with 10+ years of mobile phone use....There were suggestions of an increased risk of glioma in long term mobile phone users with high RF exposure and of similar, but apparently much smaller increases in meningioma [brain tumor] risk."  Cardis called for replication studies.  
The Hardell Group followed Interphone with a published paper explaining that while Interphone data confirmed earlier Hardell findings of cancer risk in wireless phone users between the ages of 29-59 years, Interphone researchers in several countrieshad excluded the age group 20-29 years.  Because this age group was shown by Hardell to have a comparatively high brain cancer risk, especially among those who started using microwave phones before the age of twenty, Hardell noted that exclusion of this high-risk group had skewed Interphone statistics and conclusions.
Hardell also pointed out that Interphone had included recall information from mentally ill patients who could not be counted upon for accurate data.  LINK

Association Between US Brain Tumor Incidence and Cell Phone Contracts (2011) [17]


A team of researchers at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York published a study in the Journal of Neuro-Oncologyshowing a significant correlation between a vast assortment of human brain tumors and the number of cell phone contracts in nineteen US. States.
This study states: "The very linear relationship between cell phone usage and brain tumor incidence is disturbing and certainly needs further epidemiological evaluation. In the meantime, it would certainly be prudent to limit exposure to all sources of electromagnetic radiation." LINK 


___

RF Cancer Designation By International Agency for Research on Cancer  (2011) [18]


In May 2011, a working group composed of 31 experts on electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation, convened by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) of the World Health Association (WHO), reported on the results of an extensive review of the health effects research.
The committee concluded that radiofrequency radiation is a 
Group 2B carcinogen which meant this type of electromagnetic radiation is possibly cancer-causing in humans. 
In arriving at this conclusion, the working group relied heavily on results of the Interphone  Study, a 13-nation study sponsored by the WHO, and a series of studies conducted by Dr. Lennart Hardell in Sweden. 
LINK

  Leading experts, including the Hardell Group, insist that the IARC designation must now be updated to reflect additional scientific evidence for cancer accumulated since 2011.

Acoustic Neuroma Update from Hardell (2013) [19]

The Hardell Group made a further study of Swedes diagnosed with acoustic neuroma between the years 1997-2003 and 2007-2009.
This pooled analysis of two case-control studies once again confirmed an association between the use of mobile phones and acoustic neuroma tumors of the inner ear/brain.  LINK




Acoustic neuroma, also known as vestibular schwannoma, is a noncancerous and usually slow-growing tumor that develops on the main (vestibular) nerve leading from your inner ear to your brain. Branches of this nerve directly influence your balance and hearing, and pressure from an acoustic neuroma can cause hearing loss, ringing in your ear and unsteadiness. 

Acoustic neuroma usually arises from the Schwann cells covering this nerve and grows slowly or not at all. Rarely, it may grow rapidly and become large enough to press against the brain and interfere with vital functions.Treatments for acoustic neuroma include regular monitoring, radiation and surgical removal.

Acoustic Neuroma Symptoms

The early symptoms of an acoustic neuroma are often subtle. Many people attribute the symptoms to normal changes of aging, so it may be a while before the condition is diagnosed.
The first symptom is usually a gradual loss of hearing in one ear, often accompanied by ringing in the ear (tinnitus) or a feeling of fullness in the ear. Less commonly, acoustic neuromas may cause sudden hearing loss.

Hardell  Confirmation That Glioma Brain Cancer and Acoustic Neuroma
Are Initiated and Promoted by Wireless Microwave Radiation (2013) [20]

The Hardell Group evaluated all nine issues on causation listed by the Bradford Hill criteria, a protocol endorsed by modern medicine as a framework for determining cause and effect.  Hardell determined that based on Bradford Hill criteria, glioma and acoustic neuroma should be considered to be caused by RF-EMF emissions from wireless phones. This paper states that wireless device emissions are rightly regarded as carcinogenic to humans and should be designated as Group 1A (Carcinogenic to humans) according to the IARC classification.  
It also confirms that current international guidelines for public exposure to this radiation urgently need to be revised.  LINK

Multi-Focal Breast Cancer Study by California Doctors (2013) [21]


In late 2013, six medical experts, representing five prestigious California medical establishments, published a paper on young women who developed invasive breast cancer after prolonged exposure to their cell phones:
“We report a case series of four young women --ages from 21 to 39-- with multi-focal invasive breast cancer that raises the concern of a possible association with non-ionizing radiation of electromagnetic field exposures from cellular phones.
Pathology of all four cases show striking similarity. 


These cases raise awareness to the lack of safety data of prolonged direct contact with cellular phones.
All patients regularly carried their smart phones directly against their breasts, in their brassieres for up to 10 hours a day, for several years, and developed tumors in areas of their breasts immediately underlying the phones...." LINK

Hardell Review of Decreased Survival of Brain Cancer Patients (2014) [22]


Using data from their 1997-2003 and 2007-2009 case-control studies of brain tumor patients, the Hardell group analyzed the impact of wireless phones on the survival rates of 1678 glioma sufferers. 
This study yielded evidence of decreased survival in Grade IV astrocytoma patients commensurate with their years of wireless phone use. The highest decrease in survival rate was found in cases who began use of mobile phones before the age of twenty. These researchers concluded: "Due to the relationship with survival, the classification of IARC is strengthened and RF-EMF should be regarded as a human carcinogen requiring urgent revision of current exposure guidelines." LINK
 





Astrocytomas are a type of cancer of the brain.
They originate in a particular kind of glial cells, star-shaped brain cells in the cerebrum called astrocytes. This type of tumor does not usually spread outside the brain and spinal cord and it does not usually affect other organs. Astrocytomas are the most commonglioma and can occur in most parts of the brain and occasionally in the spinal cord. Within the astrocytomas, two broad classes are recognized in literature, those with:


  • Narrow zones of infiltration (mostly noninvasive tumors; e.g., pilocytic astrocytoma, subependymal giant cell astrocytoma, pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma), that often are clearly outlined on diagnostic images
  • Diffuse zones of infiltration (e.g., high-grade astrocytoma, anaplastic astrocytoma, glioblastoma), that share various features, including the ability to arise at any location in the central nervous system, but with a preference for the cerebral hemispheres; they occur usually in adults, and have an intrinsic tendency to progress to more advanced grades.[1]

The German Study from Jacobs University (2015) [24]

Nine scientists at Jacobs University in Bremen, Germany, published state-of-the-art studies showing that animals exposed to 0.4 down to .04 watts per kilogram
[SAR exposure levels 4 to 40 times lower than the 1.6 W/Kg allowed for human brain exposure by U.S. federal guidelinessuffered a significantly higher incidence (than non-irradiated animals) of lung cancer, liver cancer and lymphoma cancer.
This research is especially important because it is a replication of an earlier (2010) animal study which had basically produced the same results.  LINK

The US National Toxicology Program (NTP) Studies (2016) [25]

Animal studies are considered valid for assessing cancer risk in humans.
This federally-funded group of studies, conducted under auspices of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), induced cancer, pre-cancer hyperplasia and DNA damage in a significant percentage of test rats exposed to cell phone microwaves: GSM- or CDMA-modulated at 900 megahertz.
This study produced "clear evidence" that cell phone radiation produces statistically significant brain and heart schwannoma cancers in rats exposed to this radiation, even at power densities below federal exposure guidelines. LINK








Hyperplasia (from ancient Greek ὑπέρ huper, "over" + πλάσις plasis, "formation"), or hypergenesis, is an increase in the amount of organic tissue that results fromcell proliferation.[4] 
It may lead to the gross enlargement of an organ, and the term is sometimes confused with benign neoplasia or benign tumor.[5

Hyperplasia is a common preneoplastic response to stimulus.
[6] Microscopically, cells resemble normal cells but are increased in numbers. Sometimes cells may also be increased in size (hypertrophy).[7]
Hyperplasia is different from hypertrophy in that the adaptive cell change in hypertrophy is an increase in the size of cells, whereas hyperplasia involves an increase in the number of cells.[8]










Additionally, "equivocal evidence" of cancer risk was reported in the pituitary, adrenal and prostate glands and pancreas and liver in male rats and adrenal glands in female rats.  
NTP scientists also irradiated test mice with modulated 1.9 gigahertz microwaves widely used in wireless technologies.
"Equivocal evidence of cancer risk from cell phone radiation was reported for lymphoma in male and female mice.  Equivocal evidence was also reported for skin, lung and liver cancer in male mice."  LINK

Saudi Arabian Study Showing iPhone Correlation to Salivary Gland Cancer (2016) [26]

This human case-control study reported a significant increase of 11+ fold for parotid gland cancers in Apple iPhone users when the phone was used for more than one hour per day. LINK


The parotid gland is a major salivary gland in many animals.
In humans, the two parotid glands are present on either side of the mouth and in front of both ears. They are the largest of the salivary glands. Each parotid is wrapped around the mandibular ramus, and secretes serous saliva through the parotid duct into the mouth, to facilitate mastication and swallowing and to begin the digestion of starches. There are also two other types ofsalivary glands; they are submandibular and 
sublingual glands.[1] The parotid glands are a pair of mainly serous salivary glands located below and in front of each ear canal, draining their secretions into the vestibule of the mouth through the parotid duct.[2]
Each gland lies behind the mandibular ramus and in front of the 
mastoid process of the temporal bone. The gland can be felt on either side, by feeling in front of each ear, along the cheek, and below the angle of the mandible.[3]

Canadian Update on Human Brain Cancer Risk (2017) [27]

A medical team involved with the original Interphone Study completed a re-evaluation of Canadian Interphone data.
Using a probabilistic, multiple-bias model, this team confirmed a significant risk of glioma brain tumors among Canadian wireless users interviewed for the study.  Canada currently has a horrific overall national cancer rate: one in two Canadians will suffer some type of cancer in their lifetime.  LINK
glioma is a type of tumor that starts in the glial cells of the brain or the spine.[1] 

Gliomas comprise about 30 percent of all brain tumors and central nervous system tumors, and 80 percent of all malignant brain tumors.[2] Gliomas have been correlated to the electromagnetic radiation from cell phones, and a link between the cancer and cell phone usage was considered possible,[10] though several large studies have found no conclusive evidence, as summarized by the NIH's National Cancer Institute review of the topic[11] and its numerous citations,[12] and the FCC.[13]

Hardell  Evaluation of Cancer Risk from Bradford Hill Viewpoints (2017) [28]

Tying together the latest global research, the Hardell Group published a detailed analysis of the many ways that mobile phone and cordless phone radiation fulfills Bradford Hill criteria on association and causation of disease. This paper lists the following crucial Hill points:
Strength [of data]: meta-analysis of case-control studies gives odds ratio (OR) = 1.90, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.31–2.76 with highest cumulative exposure.
Consistency: the risk increases with latency, meta-analysis gave in the 10+ years' latency group OR = 1.62, 95% CI = 1.20–2.19.
Specificity: increased risk for glioma is in the temporal lobe. Using meningioma cases as comparison group still increases the risk.
Temporality: highest risk is in the 20+ years' latency group, OR = 2.01, 95% CI = 1.41–2.88, for wireless phones.Biological gradient: cumulative use of wireless phones increases the risk.
Plausibility: animal studies show an increased incidence of glioma and malignant schwannoma in rats exposed to radiofrequency (RF) radiation. There is increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from RF radiation.
Coherence: there is a change in the natural history of glioma and increasing incidence.
Experiment: antioxidants reduce ROS production from RF radiation. Analogy: there is an increased risk in subjects exposed to extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields.
"
Conclusion:
 RF radiation should be regarded as a human carcinogen causing glioma."

 The Italian Ramazzini Study (2018) [29]

The Ramazzini Institute in Italy has published results of its large study in which animals were abused with exposure to 1.8 gigahertzrepresentative of cell tower antenna emissions.
This study reports a significant number of Schwann cell tumors (schwannomas) in exposed animals, compared to controls and therefore it strongly supports the findings of the NTP studies.
Schwann cells are found in most organs of the body, both human and animal.
Schwann cells play a key role in the nervous system where they form the myelin sheath and help conduct electrical impulses. The researchers who completed this study are among the many experts demanding that IARC update its radiofrequency designation commensurate with the documented potential of microwaves to induce and accelerate cancer in animals and humansLINK


 Note:

We must not hold our breath for a proper IARC update any time soon! 
Dr. Lennart Hardell explains that the majority of the current Core Group members in charge of releasing RF health information for the World Health Organization are now downplaying the documented cancer risks of wireless radiation because they are affiliated with the infamous International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and thus have a serious conflict of intere
st. ICNIRP is an industry-loyal NGO and it remains committed to outdated and deadly wireless radiation exposure standards that plague the world today.  LINK








Schwannomas of the head and neck are a fairly common occurrence and can be found incidentally in 3–4% of patients at autopsy.[4] Most common of these is a vestibular schwannoma, a tumor of the vestibulocochlear nerve that may lead to tinnitus and hearing loss on the affected side. Outside the cranial nerves, schwannomas may present on the flexor surfaces of the limbs. Rare occurrences of these tumors in the penis have been documented in the literature.[5]



schwannoma is a usually benign nerve sheath tumor composed of Schwann cells, which normally produce the insulating myelin sheath covering .
peripheral nerves,
Schwannomas are homogeneous tumors, consisting only of Schwann cells. The tumor cells always stay on the outside of the nerve, but the tumor itself may either push the nerve aside and/or up against a bony structure (thereby possibly causing damage).
Schwannomas are relatively slow-growing. For reasons not yet understood, schwannomas are mostly 
benign and less than 1% become malignant, degenerating into a form of cancer known as neurofibrosarcoma.
These masses are generally contained within a capsule, so surgical removal is often successful.

Yale University Study of Thyroid Cancer in Cell Phone Users (2018) [30]

Thyroid cancer incidence is currently exploding in the USA. 
Researchers at the Yale School of Medicine, working with the Connecticut Health Department, stumbled upon a correlation between cell phone radiation and microcarcinoma of the thyroid gland.  A study of thyroid cancer victims and a control population of non-users was conducted in Connecticut during the years 2010 and 2011 with results published in 2018.

The study showed that men who used cell phones for more than 15 years had twice the risk for thyroid cancer than non-users.
Women who used cell phones more than two hours per day had a 52% greater risk for thyroid cancer than non-users.
The researchers denied "significant association" but they stated that"suggestive elevated risk of thyroid microcarcinoma associated with long-term and more frequent uses warrants further investigation."
This study is the tip of the iceberg since it used a very small sample size, especially for males.
It did not factor in microwave cordless phone use, ignoring a high risk factor. Cell phone users in the study were not exposed to today's smart phones with multiple antennas situated at the bottom where they spew carcinogenic microwaves directly into the jaw and neck areas. Urgently needed are properly-designed follow up studies to confirm microwave damage to thyroid tissues as documented in numerous earlier studies showing:  DNA damage, oxidative stress and reduction of thyroid hormone secretionLINK



Thyroid cancer is cancer that develops from the tissues of the thyroid gland.[1]



It is a disease in which cells grow abnormally and have the potential to spread to other parts of the body.[7][8] Symptoms can include swelling or a lump in the neck.[1] Cancer can also occur in the thyroid after spread from other locations, in which case it is not classified as thyroid cancer.[3]

Risk factors include radiation exposure at a young age, having an enlarged thyroid, and family history.[1][2] The four main types are papillary thyroid cancerfollicular thyroid cancer,medullary thyroid cancer, and anaplastic thyroid cancer.[3] Diagnosis is often based onultrasound and fine needle aspiration.[1] Screening people without symptoms and at normal risk for the disease is not recommended as of 2017.[9]





The thyroid gland, or simply the thyroid, is an endocrine gland in the neck, consisting of twolobes connected by an isthmus. It is found at the front of the neck, below the Adam's apple. The thyroid gland secretes three hormones, namely the thyroid hormones (thyroxine/T4 andtriiodothyronine/T3) and calcitonin. The thyroid hormones primarily influence the metabolic rateand protein synthesis, but they also have many other effects including on development. The thyroid hormones are created from iodine and tyrosineCalcitonin plays a role in calcium homeostasis.[1]
Hormonal output from the thyroid is regulated by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) secreted from the anterior pituitary gland, which itself is regulated by thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) produced by the hypothalamus.[2]
The thyroid may be affected by several diseasesHyperthyroidism occurs when the gland produces excessive amounts of thyroid hormones, the most common cause being Graves' disease, an autoimmune disorder. In contrast, hypothyroidism is a state of insufficient thyroid hormone production. Worldwide, the most common cause is iodine deficiency. Thyroid hormones are important for development, and hypothyroidism secondary to iodine deficiency remains the leading cause of preventable intellectual disability.[3] In iodine-sufficient regions, the most common cause of hypothyroidism is Hashimoto's thyroiditis, also an autoimmune disorder. In addition, the thyroid gland may also develop several types of nodules and cancer.

The Israeli HL Cancer Studies (2018) [31]


Researchers with the Hebrew University in Israel published a study of radiation-related human cancers produced in occupational and military settings.
They focused on the extraordinary number of hemolymphatic (HL) cancers produced by communication and radar microwave frequencies. HL cancers arise from blood cells or lymphoid tissues that involve the liver.
This study is germane to our current Microwave Age with its new vehicle radar driver assist systems, DOT's upcoming vehicle to vehicle radar project and the myriad radar antennas deployed by driverless (autonomous) vehicles.
This research analyzed published data from a group of cancer patients with a history of prolonged exposure to radiofrequency radiation, including radar microwaves, plus three additional cohort studies of heavily irradiated military and industrial workers in various countries. These groups suffered high HL cancer rates.
The Israeli scientists state in their abstract: "Overall, the epidemiological studies on the excess risk for HL and other cancers, together with brain tumors in cell phone users and experimental studies on RFR and carcinogenicity make a coherent case for a cause-effect relationship for classifying RFR exposure as a human carcinogen [IARC Group 1A]." LINK

Yet, We Are Still in the Information Dark Ages!



 


    The above-listed documentation provides clear evidence that microwave radiation used for wireless technologies is what the Hardell Group calls "a multi-site carcinogen." [32] A multi-site carcinogen can cause cancer anywhere in the body. 
But most of the scientific evidence for microwave causation of malignancy in man and beast has been gathered mainly from the older wireless technologies, that is:
NMT, 2G, 3G and older radar installations.


    There is little desperately-needed data on the real-life carcinogenicity of the numerous Wi-Fi channel frequencies being delivered non-stop to most people wherever they go: 2.45 to 6 gigahertz.  Nor do we have adequate research on the newer 4G/LTE and 4G/WiMax antenna frequencies now saturating the nation: 600 to 850 megahertz and 1.7 to 2.5 gigahertz. Americans have been swimming in 4G wave pollution with the advent of smart phones, which offer high-speed Internet, and more so since wireless computer tablets were first handed out like candy. No research group has undertaken comprehensive studies on the bio-effects of ferocious MIMO (multiple beam) 4G signals roaring from towers and rooftops everywhere. Millions of device-loving people stream MIMO 4G into their flesh for hours each day, then tuck it under their heads at night. Worst of all, many begin intensive microwave abuse in infancy. 

   Smart personal computer devices, including tablets, feature multiple antennas which simultaneously beam differing carrier frequencies along with their diverse modulation signals. The average American is now "cooked" with multiple frequencies, propagated by numerous antennas all doing their own vibrational "thing."
    Especially concerning is the sheer number of hours to which most people are exposed by personal wireless devices. Workers and students use connected devices hundreds of hours per month, thousands of hours per year, not counting the time they carry those devices on their bodies. A recent survey by child development experts revealed that the vast majority of U.S. children under age four play with wireless devices by themselves and that most babies are familiar with parental devices before they reach the age of one. [32]


 None of the above cancer studies are germane to
our current excessive daily exposure levels.
Most enlightening would be studies of human and animal flesh
infused with the actual aggregate assault of:

(1) environmental Wi-Fi, indoors and out
(2) GSM and 3G cellular radiation
 (3) 4G beam-forming MIMO radiation 
 (4) Smart meter radiation signals
  (5) Radar radiation (24, 35, 77 gigahertz) blasting from new vehicles on the roadways
(6) GPS satellite transmissions  all delivered in combination to most people 
perpetually, year after year!

  Such realistic studies would shed valuable light on the ever-worsening
annual cancer statistics for both the USA and Canada.

And these authentic studies need to be done
BEFORE
5G millimeter wave radiation (30-100 gigahertz)
IS ADDED TO
all of the above existing wireless pollution!!!!!!

          
 

Are you getting the picture, America?

  Does this information make sense to you, Canada?

  Might it be time to back off from blind worship
of in-your-face wireless technologies?

Top mobile firms know that they sell cancer!
