Expert spells it out: HEALTH FEARS MEAN YOUNG SHOULD NOT USE MOBILE PHONES
David Adam, science correspondent, Wednesday January 12, 2005 - Guardian, UK

Children should not use mobile phones because of continuing concerns over the possible health risks, a leading expert warned yesterday. Sir William Stewart of the National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB) urged parents not to give the phones to children under the age of eight, and said those between eight and 14 should use them only when absolutely necessary.

HEALTH RISKS

Last year, a study of 750 people by the Karolinska Institute in Sweden reported that using a mobile phone for 10 years or more could quadruple the risk of acoustic neuroma, a rare tumour on the nerve between the ear and the brain. Separate research in Germany linked emissions from mobile phone base stations to DNA damage, and possibly cancer. A Dutch study in 2003 suggested that the new more powerful 3G phones can affect brain function, though Prof Stewart cautioned that the work has some limitations and needs to be repeated.

"All of these studies have yet to be replicated and are of varying quality, but we can't dismiss them out of hand," he said. "This is still a relatively new area and the divergent views show how more research is needed."

A World Health Organisation project called Interphone that has followed 1,000 people for the last decade will report its findings in the next few months. A separate long term international study to assess the health of 250,000 mobile phone users will start this year, but is not expected to release any results until 2020.

Mobile phone radiation and health: extract from Wikipedia, the online encyclopaedia

The effect of mobile phone radiation on human health is the subject of recent interest and study, as a result of the enormous increase in mobile phone usage throughout the world (as of June 2009), there were more than 4.3 billion users worldwide. Mobile phones use electromagnetic radiation in the microwave range. Other digital wireless systems, such as data communication networks, produce similar radiation.

The World Health Organisation has classified mobile phone radiation on the IARC scale into Group 2B - possibly carcinogenic. That means that there "could be some risk" of carcinogenicity, so additional research into the long-term, heavy use of mobile phones needs to be conducted.Some national radiation advisory authorities have recommended measures to minimize exposure to their citizens as a precautionary approach.

As with all our orgone products, 'Lifeforce Nrgizers' are designed to protect you from the harmful effects of electromagnetic radiation in line with the theories of Dr Wilhelm Reich.

However, this does not mean that by attaching a 'Lifeforce Nrgizer' to your mobile phone we guarantee that you will be completely protected from harmful effects. But at the very least it will remind you to text rather than make calls on your mobile.
