ElectromagneticHealth.org—Boulder, CO,
November 2, 2009. Dr. Magda Havas, Professor of Environmental
and Resource Studies at Trent University, Canada will present new
evidence validating electrohypersensitivity at a conference organized
by the EMR Policy Institute in Golden, CO this Sunday. To register
contact EMR Policy Institute Vice President, Deb Carney at (303)

Havas’ 25-person
study, which took place in Boulder and Golden, CO last October, is part
of a 100-person study examining the heart’s reactivity to microwave
radiation emitted by common DECT cordless phones. This is the first
time such striking effects from microwave radiation being emitted by
wireless phones has been documented scientifically in a double blind
study and it is important information for health practitioners to know.
Patients today experiencing electrohypersensitivity symptoms are
commonly put on drugs for other conditions with similar symptoms,
instead of being taught how to create an electromagnetically clean
environment to eliminate symptoms.
Symptoms of
electrohypersensitivity include headaches, difficulty concentrating,
insomnia, heart irregularities and much more. (See EHS Quiz at www.magdahavas.com) Radiation emitted
from DECT portable phones is the same microwave radiation as emitted by
cell phones. Havas’ new study will add to the growing interest in the
health effects of cell phones, broadening the focus beyond cell phones’
association with brain tumors to their effect on other systems,
including the heart.
In the image below,
Subject B experienced an increase in heart rate on exposure to a nearby
portable phone. The heart rate immediately returned to the baseline
after the cordless phone was unplugged.
