Dear Ms. Ravenscroft: I have copied below
a paragraph from the WHO website re EMF's.
Would you please clarify whether or not new guidelines
will be coming out in six months or approximately when that will be?
Also, I notice the site re EMF booklet has pictures
showing trains as being "static," welding equipment as
"intermediate frequencies," powerlines as "extremely low
frequencies," and cell phones as "radio
frequencies." I believe items such as electric
clocks and other electrical items I refer to below may fall into more than one
category. Due to "chronic, prolonged, nightltime
exposures, I also believe such exposures to be a major factor in alarming
increases in many health problems.
I have concerns re WHO's references to EMF's
from appliances such as hair dryers, electric shavers, vacuums, etc. in spite
of the fact there is no question they put out very strong magnetic fields. The
general public is not typically exposed to such items for hours at a
time. Persons do not sleep on or close to such items.
Electric clocks, small fans, transformer boxes for
cordless phones and electronic games, noise machines, electric blankets, heated
mattress pads, aquarium pumps and heaters, touchlamps, lamps with dimmer
switches, monitors, security alarms, computer power supply strips, TV sets,
and more are likely to be the "real culprits" re many adverse
effects all the way from poor sleep to cancer -- due to the fact these items
are often close to beds and/or individuals on a "chronic, prolonged,
nightly basis.
Moving my husband's electric clock radio off his
nightstand has now yielded improvement in three parts of his Executive Function.
He is now said not to have Alzheimers afterall. Sadly, he will never be
able to live independently due to the fact he is left with a diagnosis of
moderate-to-severe memory loss and cognitive impairment. I oversee his
medications and supplements and give him additional melatonin some nights (has
resulted in disappearance of delusions, hallucinations, and agitated
behavior). I discontinued his statin -- said to be dangerous for the
elderly (and others and is now being linked to memory loss, muscle
degeneration, congestive heart failure and more) -- another very serious issue
WHO may need to oversee regarding the issue of "deadly combination"
of medications interacting/reacting with natural chemicals in persons'
bodies.
The public needs to know that reducing bedroom
EMF/EMR is vital insofar as maintaining and supporting proper melatonin
levels. More and more scientific evidence indicates melatonin may,
in fact, actually "prevent" autism, Alzheimers and other
neurodegenerative disorders. There is a need for melatonin
supplementation (whether synthetic or natural) to keep persons like my
husband out of institutions. When persons with dementia-type problems
can't sleep, the patient often becomes agitated and "lashes out,"
therefor requiring a phone call to the police with resultant retention in a
locked facilicty. This often leads to the demented patient being placed
in long-term care. No country can afford this increasing
burden on already overtaxed healthcare systems!!!
The ASTM Gene re melatonin synthesis has now
been linked to autism, Alzheimers and other neurodegenerative disorders -
- see: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?db=pubmed&cmd=Retrieve&dopt=AbstractPlus&list_uids=17505466&query_hl=2&itool=pubmed_docsum
See also another very important item: Behavioral
Brain Function Study at:
http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1483829
This study is regarding Alzheimers and other
neurodegenerative disorders, with explanations as to the relevance and
importance of maintaining proper melatonin levels not only for the
"anti-aging benefits," but, the critical issue of "supporting
good health while aging.....!!!" There are 343
references to support the study.
Electric meters and gas meters, as well as electrical
wiring and waterpipes carrying high currents are causing serious problems
and/or "chronic symptoms" -- resulting in EMF/EMR-related
toxicity!!! My two grandsons were diagnosed with rare immune
deficiencies and we were told they may develop Leukemia or other cancers.
We were asked whether children had died in the family. Blood testing of
family members ruled out a genetic link. The boys' immunologist said
"...their immune deficiencies must be
environmental...." When I questioned our close proximity
to two high voltage powerlines (only 50 ft. from the front of our house -- we
were providing daycare for both boys), the doctor responded, "well, we do
know that EMF's affect mice but we don't know how much of what happens to mice
happens to people....."
Moving the boys (in their respective
homes) away from walls opposite electric meters ("powerwalls")
yielded almost immediate reduction in symptoms of chronic asthma, chronic
sinus infections, chronic ear infections -- even requiring surgeries --
gastrointestinal symptoms -- allowing for the children to eat without choking
and reducing reflux -- improved appetites were observed in both children,
improved sleep, improved dispositions, all of which ended up leading to no
medical treatment for one boy until his school physical a few years later and
significantly less medical attention for the other boy. Their
overall IGG's increased by 100 points and 204 points within five months of the
bed changes. We had also stopped caring for them in our home.
Dr. Fatih Uckun is the EMF researcher who examined the
boys' blood. We were never informed that Uckun's work involved the $46
mil EMF RAPID Study. Here is a link to a press release re Uckun's
comments: http://www.feb.se/EMF-L/EMFL-3-98.html
The following is statement from press release re
conclusive evidence:
".......Conducted under the
aegis of a research grant award from the National Institutes of Environmental
Health Sciences (grant number R01-ES-07175), the studies provide conclusive
evidence that inside cells electromagnetic fields can activate certain
signaling pathways that have been associated with cancer......
Michael Boyum, a teacher and formerly healthy holder
of a black belt in karate, died at age 23 from Acute Myelogenous Leukemia
(AML). Michael's mother and Regisered Nurse, Bonnie Boyum, Inver
Grove Heights, Minnesota, has given me permission to share that her son had an
electric clock and a small fan on the headboard of his waterbed.
I conducted two separate guinea pigs studies using two
guinea pigs in each study (exposing to electric meter/"powerwall" in
our home). The guinea pigs developed asthma. Complete blood counts
with differentials (CBC's with diffs) indicated severe neutropenia,
lymphocytosis and "hypersegmented neutrophils." These
white blood cell changes are consistent with findings in persons undergoing
radiation treatments for cancer. In other words, "markers for
irradiation....." One guinea pig developed osteomyelitis
(confirmed by X-ray) that miraculously disappeared after reducing EMF/EMR
exposure. That guinea pig lived another couple of years but succumbed to
"Reactive Renal Amyloidosis." I discovered the plastic sewer
pipe (resin coated) was carrying currents higher than ambient readings from the
high voltage powerlines.
Warnings need to be instituted immediately that simply
checking sleeping areas may greatly reduce many health problems all the way
from poor sleep to cancer. It is imperative that the mainstream
medical profession be alerted to this very serious situation as soon as
possible. The world needs media attention to help stem the tide of
the "approaching
tsnumami.......!!!!! Sincerely,
Joanne Mueller

The International EMF Project is
scheduled to complete its health risk assessments of EMF in 2007, since it is anticipated that current and proposed research should
provide sufficient results within this time frame to allow more definitive
health risk assessments.
The Project is to assess health and environmental
effects of exposure to static and time varying electric and magnetic fields in
the frequency range 0 - 300 GHz. For the purpose of the project this range is
divided into: static (0 Hz), extremely low frequency (ELF, >0-300 kHz),
intermediate frequencies (IF, >300Hz to 10MHz), and radiofrequency (RF, 10
MHz-300 GHz) fields.
