Dr. Magda Havas to Present at American Holistic Medical Association Conference
Nov 07, 2009 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) --
Dr. Magda Havas, Professor of Environmental and Resource Studies at Trent University, Canada will present new evidence showing a link between heart irregularities and electromagnetic fields from wireless phones at a conference of the EMR Policy Institute in Golden, CO, Sunday, November 8th.
Havas' 25-person study is Phase I 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 information for health practitioners to know. Patients 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. 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. Senate hearing were held in September on this public health issue, organized by Sen. Arlen Specter and Chaired by Senator Tom Harkin and the subject is of growing concern among government leaders nationally.
Additional symptoms of EHS include headaches, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, poor short-term memory, difficulty sleeping, skin problems, tinnitus, nausea, and dizziness. Many of these symptoms are subjective and difficult to measure.
