      The study also indicated that there was a possibility that anyone with cancer cells at an early stage risked having cancer proliferated on entering the area and being exposed to EMF.

  • Although Global Positioning Systems have many benefits in regards to improving some aspects of our lives the equipment is still at its developmental stages and needs to overcome some potential problems in order to for it to be a successful tool to use in the future. Some of these errors are natural such as the frequently moving ions in the atmosphere, whilst others are artificial such as radio frequency interference. These errors will be briefly discussed noting how the interferences come about and how they can be possibly avoided.

  • In 2007 British scientists discovered that electrically-charged particles increase risks of asthma because they stick to lung and respiratory tract tissue.
  • The BioInitiative Report also found a 20 percent increased risk of malignant glioma brain tumours with ten years of cell-phone use and a 200 percent risk for tumours on the same side of the brain where cell phones are held.
  • Hundreds of medical studies have also linked various sources of EMFs to numerous ailments and diseases, ranging from depression to skin, eye heart, reproductive and neurological problems.
  • Avoid living near cell phone transmission towers or any other radio/TV transmitter. Experts agree that 500 metres (0.31 miles) is too close. You should move if you're that close. If you do live near a tower you can paint your home with a coat of anti-EMF paint as a base coat.

  • According to a Swedish study, if you spend many years using your cell phone for at least an hour a day your risk of developing a brain tumor is 240% higher than a person who never uses one
  • The results of this study go against another recent one carried out in the UK and published in January, 2006, which indicated that cell phone use is safe for humans.

  • However when they looked only at people who had used a mobile for 10 years or more, they found that they were 39 per cent more likely than average to get a glioma on the side of their head where they held their handset.
  • heavy cell phone users were subject to a higher risk of benign and malignant tumors of the salivary gland.
  • Those who used a cell phone heavily on the side of the head where the tumor developed were found to have an increased risk of about 50% for developing a tumor of the main salivary gland (parotid), compared to those who did not use cell phones.
  • The study also found an increased risk of cancer for heavy users who lived in rural areas. Due to fewer antennas, cell phones in rural areas need to emit more radiation to communicate effectively.
  • She recommends that people use hands-free devices at all times, and when talking, hold the phone away from one's body. Less frequent calls, shorter in duration, should also have some preventative effect.
