Cell Phone Radiation Video

New questions are being raised about radiation.

For years, the cell phone and wireless industry has pointed to the Federal Communications Commission and numerous studies conducted by cancer research groups. These agencies could find no hard scientific evidence that the small amount of radiation from your cell phone can cause cancer -- more specifically a brain tumor. However, recent reports indicate a possible shift in that theory:

Chinese Put Cancer of the Parotid Gland on Center Stage

April 18 2011
Chinese researchers in Beijing are seeing some of the highest rates of cancer of the salivary glands ever reported in any cell phone study. They have found that long-term, heavy users have rates of malignant parotid gland tumors that are anywhere from seven to 13 times higher than might otherwise be expected.

The raw data -- that is, before being adjusted for other possible influences like sex, age, income, smoking status and the like -- point to cancer risks that are elevated 10-fold, 20-fold, and even 30-fold, depending on the type of tumor and how heavy cell phone use is defined. For instance, those who had used mobile phones for over ten years had more than ten times the rate of epithelial parotid gland malignancies the most common type of parotid gland cancer. Previous studies have rarely pointed to a risk that is more than double or triple the expected rate.

These elevated risks, though based on a small number of cases -- at most 15 in the high exposure category -- are statistically significant. Importantly, Haizhong Zhang and coworkers at the Chinese PLA General Hospital see "general indications" of a dose-response relationship. The new paper was posted on the Web site of the Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery on April 6.

Question: I heard that the radiation comes from the antenna.
Answer: True, when you make or receive a call, radiation comes off the antenna, half of it goes into space, the other half forms a band around the side of the head where you place the phone against your ear. Wave shields do not block that radiation or the radiation that goes through the body of the phone. Our focus is on that portion of EMF that enters the soft tissue of the ear through the ear piece. Why? Because the ear is the highest absorption rate of radiation in the body and most of the reports of tumors and health problems are directly behind the ear. Thus our testing was only on radiation entering the inner ear. There is still radiation on the side of the head so using a gauss meter type device to measure changes will not show any real change because of the presence of radiation on the side of the head. We also have testing from Cetecom ,Germany, the Russian health dept. who tested and approved the WaveShield for sale in the federation of Russia. Kinesiologists do a muscle test with Waveshield to prove it increases energy levels lowered when you use a cell phone. When you use your cell phone your energy level goes down so if you hold you arm out and resist your arm can be pushed down very easily. With the Waveshield on the ear piece your energy level stays strong so the same test no one can push your arm down with out great effort.There are editorials from major newspapers endorsing Waveshield products.

Question: How was the Wave shield tested?
Answer: The Wave shields were tested by a U.S. govt. FTC listed lab on several phone models with the following results. WS series 1000 for cell phones and series 3000 for cordless phones block up to 97% of the radiation from entering the inner ear and series 2000 gold blocks up to 99%. We say "up to" because of two factors
1. The strength of the microwave signal to your phone.
2. Some phones have more radiation than others.

Question: What about other shields, chips etc. claiming to absorb, block, convert radiation?
Answer: Most of these products have no valid testing from approved labs. Many make very general claims which can not be proved. If they absorb the radiation would they not get saturated? If they neutralized/harmonized ALL the radiation they would interfere with reception and block the signal from the antenna. These phone decorations offer no protection.

Question: I have not heard any news or reports about cell phones not being safe.
Answer: Although the jury is still out on the long term effects of cell phones and cordless phones, studies and evidence continue to support the growing potential health risks. An independent reporting site www.cprnews.com has over 170 reports and studies on cell phone dangers under world news.

Question: Why has the government not done very much about this potential health problem?
Answer: The government listens to the cell phone manufacturers Who tell them phones are safe and shields do not work. Yet a report from major newspapers in England confirmed that the cell phone industry has a patent to put a shield inside phones. Now why would they do that if phones are safe and shields do not work? They have had this patent since June 2001. They have not put a shield in phones because of potential law suits.

Question: Is there a warranty on the shields?
Answer: Yes, one year which is only voided if you try and remove the wave shield from one phone to apply to another phone. The adhesive could rip off and the special surface metallic coating on the shield could be damaged.

Question: I use a headset so why do I need a shield?
Answer: First we want you protected at all times when you are not using a safe headset but mainly because the current headsets with the wire from the ear bud are very dangerous. Studies and research have shown that the wire from the ear bud acts like an aerial bringing 3 x more radiation to the ears they are very dangerous.

Question: Do I need cell phone protection?
Answer: Does your cell phone hand hurt with a dull ache when using your cell phone?
Does your cell phone hand receive shocks while using your cell phone?
Have your gums bled for no apparent reason, and only on the side of your face that you use your cell phone?
Have you experienced sharp jabbing pains to the eardrum of the ear that you put your cell phone against, while talking on your cell phone?
Do you have experience numbness across the inside back of your head after using your cell phone?
Are you experiencing more tinnitus that you remember?
And speaking of remembering... how's your short term memory been lately?

"I have experienced all of the above with my LG cell phone issued by Verizon. The year of 2007 was been the worst. Motorola advises consumers to avoid pointing a cellular antenna toward exposed parts of the body. But independent tests show that cell phones can also leak huge amounts of radiation from the keypad and mouthpiece. This radiation deeply penetrates brain, ear and eye tissues, which are especially susceptible to microwave damage. Belt clip cases allow cell phones to deliver radiation to the liver or kidney areas when a wired, hands-free earpiece is used."

"Imagine a powerful beam from a cell tower (google 'cell towers' for more info) directed to a satellite in space, then zeroing in on your personal cell phone's frequency and targeting it, and then beaming it by microwave to your cell phone's antenna -- while you put that device up next to your head. Right up to the ol' WetWare!" Jeff Tollefson

The vast majority of electromagnetic radiation emitted by cellular and cordless phones comes from the antenna and parts of the phone other than the ear piece. Wave shield products have no effect on this electromagnetic energy.
