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
