Major U.S. Gov. study finds cell phone radiation causes cancer
Information & Perspective by Warren Woodward
Sedona, Arizona ~ June 3, 2016
Utilities always say that “smart” meter transmissions are no different than those from your cell phone, but that’s part of the problem. Have a look at what just carrying a cell phone for 45 minutes does to your blood cells. At the 36:30 mark here: https://archive.org/details/WirelessDevices
Even if you are not using your cell phone, when it’s on it is still checking in with the cell tower to maintain a connection. If you are running apps, those will be checking in also.
Meanwhile just last February the American Brain Tumor Association found that “malignant brain tumors are the most common cause of cancer-related deaths in adolescents and young adults aged 15-39 and the most common cancer occurring among 15-19 year olds.” Gee, I wonder why.
And last week the U.S. National Toxicology Program (NTP) released results of its $25 million study on hundreds of rats exposed to cell phone radiation exposure. The findings: 1 in 12 male rats developed malignant brain tumors (glioma) or malignant heart tumors (schwannoma) or pre-cancerous lesions. None of the rats in the control group developed tumors of the brain or heart or pre-cancerous lesions. Birth weights for exposed animals were also lower than for control animals.
I think the results for the rats would have been even worse had they been subjected to all the microwave radiation exposure to which humans are now exposed, such as wifi, cordless phones, “smart” meters and cell towers. Also, the rats had a 6 hour long complete break from exposure every day. Most humans do not get such a break.
Additionally, because the rats were exposed 10 minutes on and 10 minutes off, their total daily exposure time was only nine hours. Again, most people are exposed 24/7, with some even choosing to sleep with or next to their phones while the phone is on.
The study has caused quite a stir. The usual industry shills and corrupt media that rely on telecom ads have denounced and even ridiculed it. For example the Washington Post headline read “Do cell phones cause cancer? Don’t believe the hype.” However, independent scientists and others who are not bought by industry are calling it a game changer. You can read the Microwave News take on the whole thing here: http://microwavenews.com/news-center/ntp-and-brain-tumor-rates . And here’s an excellent “Spin vs Fact” sheet regarding the NTP study.
Those paid to be in denial remind me of our family’s reaction to the 1964 announcement by the U.S. Surgeon General that “cigarette smoking may be hazardous to your health.” We all laughed and lit up. Nothing was going to happen to us, maybe somebody else but not us. Dad died a slow death 27 years later from emphysema. It wasn’t pretty. He’d been an athlete his whole life. He had track records at two schools that were still unbroken when I went to them. In his adulthood, he beat just about everyone in town in golf while walking the course, not riding in a cart. But he got suckered by cigarettes. My stepmother did too. She had half a lung taken out before she died.
People, please don’t get suckered by wireless. Break the habit. There are steps you can take. Do a search and you will find them. But don’t fall for the stick-on phone pendants or “whole house protective wave generators” that supposedly “change the energy.” If they really worked then your phone wouldn’t.
As for myself, I use a corded phone on a land line. For emergency use I keep a flip cell phone turned off and in a Faraday pouch in whatever vehicle I am using. I use it so seldom I don’t even know its number. My computer and associated equipment are all wired with the wireless functions turned off. No cordless phones (they never stop transmitting even when hung up). No “smart” meter. And no cigarettes any more either.
BTW, there are other symptoms of Microwave Sickness besides cancer. Common ones include insomnia, headache, skin rash, ear ringing, heart palpitations and joint pain.
Lastly, take heed from a dead man: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIlOVJd0lA8.

This “article” is total huff and puff. I hope this was written as more of a joke than for anyone to take seriously. Every study that has come to light about this topic has been refuted and proven false by the scientific community. Even the title says it all: Major US Government Study… So was this study funded by the US Government and conducted by scientists under their payroll? Sounds completely subjective, along with this crap-fest of an article you wrote with it.
You are only showing your ignorance. Look up U.S. National Toxicology Program and learn something new.
Thanks, Warren, for bringing this to light. Among your strong points the comparison with the dangers of smoking and public denial is perhaps the best example to refute the position taken by “Ryan.” Sometimes the only way to convince people is when they personally become victims.
Would you happen to have any statistical data on how damaging the many hours some people spend looking at those little machines is to eyesight? Another point to ponder.
The 2012 Bio Initiative report shows thousands of independent studies showing biological harm from electromagnetic radiation. Our government does not take a precautionary approach to new technology but subsidizes business that have no credible research in regard to the safety of the products sold. Buyer beware in all cases. The FDA and FCC have been captured by industry. Our politicians have ignored individual rights and are supporting big business at the cost of our health and the environment subjecting every living thing to unprecedented levels of electromagnetic pollution.
@ E. Maddock – I don’t have any stats but that does not mean they don’t exist, only that I have not looked into it. That said, here’s a detailed article about screen flicker: http://www.conradbiologic.com/articles/SubliminalFlickerI.html Also, I use this free program which greatly reduces the blue light from the screen automatically every evening at sundown: https://justgetflux.com/
Reynard alleged his wife’s fatal brain tumor was caused by her cell phone. Publicity about the Reynard case caused the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) to pledge $25 million for research to allay the public’s fears. However, this industry funded research backfired on the wireless industry when its lead researcher Dr. George Carlo came forward with claims that his industry funded research pointed to increased cancer among other health risk.https://www.rfsafe.com/wsj-reports-murray-cellphone-cancer-case-may-cost-wireless-industry-over-1-9-billion-dollars/
