From the Abstract in the journal Pathophysiology:

"Many nations, phone manufacturers, and expert groups, advise prevention in light of these concerns by taking the simple precaution of 'distance' to minimize exposures to the brain and body. We note than brain cancer is the proverbial 'tip of the iceberg'; the rest of the body is also showing effects other than cancers."

The full text of the article mentions the view about changing classification of RF-EMF (electromagetic radiation from wireless devices) to a "probable human carcinogen".

Excerpts in an April 2, 2013 Press Release from Joel M. Moskowitz, Ph.D., School of Public Health, University of California, Berkeley:

A new study finds that children who use cell phones who are exposed to lead are at greater risk of developing Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder than lead-exposed children who do not use cell phones much or at all.

"... preventing the use of mobile phones in children may be one measure to keep children from developing ADHD symptoms ..."

"Cell phone radiation is definitely being talked about more and more, but it's not as if there is widespread awareness on the issue. And even if there is some awareness, there is little to no appreciation of the magnitude of the dangers.

"So what about Bluetooth and more importantly Bluetooth radiation? Now these really are unchartered waters. Most people when they go out looking for a Bluetooth headset have no concept of the radiation issue . . .

Greg Hoffman is a kid who just got an iPhone from his parents. His mom, Janell Hoffman, wrote these rules for its use: 

1. It is my phone. I bought it. I pay for it. I am loaning it to you. Aren't I the greatest? 
2. I will always know the password. 
3. If it rings, answer it. It is a phone. Say hello, use your manners. Do not ever ignore a phone call if the screen reads "Mom" or "Dad". Not ever. 
4. Hand the phone to one of your parents promptly at 7:30 pm every school night & every weekend night at 9:00 pm. It will be shut off for the night and turned on again at 7:30am. If you would not make a call to someone's landline, wherein their parents may answer first, then do not call or text. Listen to those instincts and respect other families like we would like to be respected. 
5. It does not go to school with you. Have a conversation with the people you text in person. It's a life skill. 
6. If it falls into the toilet, smashes on the ground, or vanishes into thin air, you are responsible for the replacement costs or repairs. 
7. Do not use this technology to lie, fool, or deceive another human being. Do not involve yourself in conversations that are hurtful to others. Be a good friend first or stay the hell out of the crossfire. 
8. Do not text, email, or say anything through this device you would not say in person. 
9. No porn. 
10. Turn it off, silence it, put it away in public. Especially in a restaurant, at the movies, or while speaking with another human being. You are not a rude person; do not allow the iPhone to change that. 
11. Do not send or receive pictures of your private parts or anyone else's private parts. Don't laugh. Someday you will be tempted to do this despite your high intelligence. It is risky and could ruin your teenage/college/adult life. It is always a bad idea. Cyberspace is vast and more powerful than you. And it is hard to make anything of this magnitude disappear -- including a bad reputation. 
12. Don't take a zillion pictures and videos. There is no need to document everything. Live your experiences. They will be stored in your memory for eternity. 
13. Leave your phone home sometimes and feel safe and secure in that decision. It is not alive or an extension of you. Learn to live without it. Be bigger and more powerful than FOMO -- fear of missing out. 
14. Download music that is new or classic or different than the millions of your peers that listen to the same exact stuff. Your generation has access to music like never before in history. Take advantage of that gift. Expand your horizons. 
15. Play a game with words or puzzles or brain teasers every now and then. 
16. Keep your eyes up. See the world happening around you. Stare out a window. Listen to the birds. Take a walk. Talk to a stranger. Wonder without googling. 
17. You will mess up. I will take away your phone. We will sit down and talk about it. We will start over again. You & I, we are always learning. I am on your team. We are in this together.

A major new report was published today by Environment and Human Health, Inc. regarding cell phone technology, exposure, and health effects.

This comprehensive report reviews the science on health risks due to cell phone technology and issues policy recommendations in addition to precautionary health recommendations for individuals. The review captures what we know, as well as what we don't know, regarding the health effects of cell phone radiation. The report provides a strong rationale for . . .

(1) adoption of precautionary legislation at the Federal, state and local levels;
(2) the need for public information campaigns to promote safer cell phone use, and
(3) independently-funded scientific research to develop safer cell phone technology.

"I'm Kevin Kunze the director and editor of Reconnect, a documentary on the potential negative health effects from cell phone radiation, the proposed policies regarding safer use, and the mainstream media's portrayal of the issue.

"I've been working on this film for nearly two years interviewing doctors, politicians, cancer patients, and representatives from the cell phone industry. Although we're nearly finished with the film there is still a lot that needs to be done, including: filming additional b-roll, motion graphics, composing an original score, color correction, sound mixing, licensing footage, submitting to film festivals, and creating an interactive website. Take a minute to watch our trailer and see how far we've come.

"Although, we've had several offers from different companies that want to buy our footage, they've always come with unusual exceptions such as we want to make this film but not about cancer. In order to maintain the documentary's integrity and independent funding, we're asking for your help.

"In return, we're doing something no other documentary has done before. We're giving you complete access to all of our unedited interviews filmed for the movie. These interviews include the co-founder of Apple, experts from the World Health Organization, National Cancer Institute, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Environmental Working Group, and much more. Each day of our Kickstarter campaign we'll upload a new full length video so check back to follow our progress . . .

"But this film can't just talk about the urgency of the problem, it needs to move people and inspire them to take action. Globally, there are 6 billion cell phones in use right now - yet there has been very little research about the long-term health effects of this technology on our brains and bodies. But the independent research that has been done tell us we need to be more precautious about cell phone radiation.

"Our goal is to capture the public's attention while delivering a powerful message about what the science is showing us and what we can do to use our cell phones safer. Although our ambitions and ideas have grown working on this documentary, we need your help in order to complete this film. We're trying to raise $25,000. This is the minimum amount of money for us be able to complete the film.

Many in the film industry have suggested that we set a high goal such as $50,000 or $100,000 in order to make the film as professionally executed as possible. While we hope to raise more than our goal, we realize that unless we raise the full amount we won't get a penny . . .

"Are you hypersensitive to electromagnetic radiation from sources such as smart meters and mobile phones?

"Has your health been affected following the installation of smart meters?

"The prospect of a state-wide wireless smart meter grid, casting an additional blanket of electromagnetic pollution over much of Victoria, is a daunting prospect for those people already suffering from electro-hypersensitivity (EHS). Unfortunately the number of Victorians displaying symptoms related to EHS seems to have increased dramatically since the commencement of the smart meter rollout in Victorian homes and small businesses.

"While authorities are in a state of denial (or choose to heartlessly ignore the suffering of such people in the name of profit and 'progress'), Stop Smart Meters Australia has decided to establish a Health Register to demonstrate to skeptics and deniers that the number of people in Victoria experiencing debilitating electromagnetic field (EMF) related health problems and illnesses is not rare and goes far beyond a 'handful' of people.

"If you are one of these people, and would like to be on our register, please email us at ssma.health@gmail.com and provide us with your name, phone and email contact, as well as the suburb/town in which you live.

ALL YOUR DETAILS WILL BE KEPT COMPLETELY CONFIDENTIAL AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL YOUR DETAILS BE SHARED WITH A THIRD PARTY WITHOUT YOUR EXPLICIT CONSENT.

"This register will also enable Stop Smart Meters Australia to contact you if we feel there is an important reason to do so in order to reach our goal to halt the forced installation of smart meters in Victorian homes and small businesses, and restore human rights to Victorians . . .

These recommendations by AAEM, just released on 7/14/12, will take the world by storm. AAEM recommends that patients with a broad range of medical conditions avoid sources of EMF and RF radiation, especially smart meters on patients' homes and on neighbors' homes, nearby.

"These AAEM recommendations may be useful for accommodation requests.

"Print the recommendations below and take to your doctor, immediately! If you have one of these medical conditions, your physician may wish to issue a request for accommodation letter on your behalf, which you may send to the utility to request to have smart meters removed from your home and the homes of your neighbors, without fees. If the utility refuses, you may then consider filing a discrimination complaint with the federal gov't or you may consider seeking a disability rights attorney to discuss filing a potential discrimination lawsuit.

American Academy of Environmental Medicine Recommendations Regarding Electromagnetic and Radiofrequency Exposure (7/14/12)

Physicians of the American Academy of Environmental Medicine recognize that patients are being adversely impacted by electromagnetic frequency (EMF) and radiofrequency (RF) fields and are becoming more electromagnetically sensitive.

The AAEM recommends that physicians consider patients' total electromagnetic exposure in their diagnosis and treatment, as well as recognition that electromagnetic and radiofrequency field exposure may be an underlying cause of a patient's disease process.

Based on double blinded, placebo controlled research in humans, medical conditions and disabilities that would more than likely benefit from avoiding electromagnetic and radiofrequency exposure include, but are not limited to:

• Neurological conditions such as paresthesias, somnolence, cephalgia, dizziness, unconsciousness, depression
• Musculoskeletal effects including pain, muscle tightness, spasm, fibrillation
• Heart disease and vascular effects including arrhythmia, tachycardia, flushing, edema
• Pulmonary conditions including chest tightness, dyspnea, decreased pulmonary function
• Gastrointestinal conditions including nausea, belching
• Ocular (burning)
• Oral (pressure in ears, tooth pain)
• Dermal (itching, burning, pain)
• Autonomic nervous system dysfunction (dysautonomia).

Based on numerous studies showing harmful biological effects from EMF and RF exposure, medical conditions and disabilities that would more than likely benefit from avoiding exposure include, but are not limited to:

• Neurodegenerative diseases (Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's Disease, and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.)
• Neurological conditions (Headaches, depression, sleep disruption, fatigue, dizziness, tremors, autonomic nervous system dysfunction, decreased memory, attention deficit disorder, anxiety, visual disruption).
• Fetal abnormalities and pregnancy.
• Genetic defects and cancer.
• Liver disease and genitourinary disease. 

Because Smart Meters produce Radiofrequency emissions, it is recommended that patients with the above conditions and disabilities be accommodated to protect their health. The AAEM recommends: that no Smart Meters be on these patients' homes, that Smart Meters be removed within a reasonable distance of patients' homes depending on the patients' perception and/or symptoms, and that no collection meters be placed near patients' homes depending on patients' perception and/or symptoms.
