RE: CHRONIC, PROLONGED EMF/EMR
EXPOSURES
Dear Ms. Huber:
Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are listed on the website for the National
Institute of Environmental Sciences under "toxic substances" --
access info: http://library.niehs.nih.gov/consumer/toxsub.htm
Please read my appeal to Dr. Marilyn Albert, a Task Force Member of the
Alzheimers' Organization by clicking on: http://freepage.twoday.net/stories/3038870/
.
In my appeal, I express major concerns regarding "nighttime,"
close, chronic, prolonged EMF/EMR exposures emanating from electric appliances,
including but not limited to, electric clocks, fans, heating pads and electric
blankets, transformer boxes for cordless phones and electronic games, various
monitors, security alarms, etc., as well as electric meters, gas meters, bad
wiring, etc . The above link includes comments by EMF experts,
Assoc. Prof. Olle Johansson (Karolinska Institute in Sweden) about cell
phone usage and celluar antennae, etc. and Dr. George Carlo, also
regarding cell phones.
In 1999, the EMF RAPID $46 mil study declared low level EMF's to be
Class 2B carcinogens (possible cancer promoters). Funds that had
been slated to cover costs of informing the public re EMF's have never, to
my knowledge, been used for that purpose.
Since the FDA oversees EMF recommendations regarding TV sets and also
medical equipment [ http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/consumer/TVRad.html
], it is imperative that immediate action be taken in regard to
informing the public about the dangers of sleeping close to EMF/EMR sources
mentioned above.
The FDA site for kids [ http://www.fda.gov/oc/opacom/kids/
] is attractive and provides some facts regarding food concerns and other
information. However, childrens' parents
"need-to-know" that when they place monitors close to cribs and/or
childrens' beds (or if the crib or bed is up against a wall opposite an
electric meter, a TV set, a computer power supply, a transformer for a cordless
phone, etc.), a noise machine, a heater or air-purifier, certain lamps --
other electrical and telephone equipment that emit EMF/EMR toxic
pollution -- those children may be amongst the rapidly increasing
numbers of victims being diagnosed with autism-like disorders.
See the following link that includes facts about the ASMT
Gene:
http://www.buergerwelle.de/pdf/gene_and_melatonin.htm
The ASMT Gene is the "melatonin synthesis
gene" identified in patients diagnosed with autism or autism-like
disorders and believed to be linked to Alzheimers as well as other
neurodegenerative disorders. Hundreds of studies re melatonin and
other factors regarding inflammation and other changes consistent with
radiation exposures exist. See Assoc. Prof. Olle Johansson's long
list of relevant studies, which includes a study (with colleague Hallberg)
regarding the increase in Alzheimers in sparsely populated areas,
at: http://www.hetbitje.nl/bitjeE2611e.pdf .
I will be glad to furnish more studies regarding
melatonin itself and information regarding the decrease of melatonin due to low
level EMF/EMR exposures.
The fact that the WHO (World Health
Organization) no longer promotes "prudent avoidance
measures" has more to do with money than honest assessments based on
facts. That is a very long story -- let me
know should you like to have more information. Likewise, the
scientific reports that are funded by the big pharmaceutical companies, the
electrical industry and government -- "money and greed" are the
motivation behind so-called "inconclusive studies!!!"
You may want to investigate why the EMF RAPID
Interagency Committee Report has never been presented to Congress. We
can no longer afford not to provide "prudent avoidance recommendations re
low level EMF/EMR" to the U.S. population. To not do so, is to
continue promoting "experimentation without informed
consent."
I have requested several times to be put on the agenda
for testifying before Congress and reiterate that request at this time.
The children depend upon your help!!! Take
care - Joanne
