Highlighted claims

• EMF intensity drops significantly with distance, and even small increases in separation between a device and the body produce a measurable difference. — EMFs: Cell Phone Radiation Effects on the Human Body
• Electromagnetic fields are waves of energy emitted by common electronic devices. — EMFs: Cell Phone Radiation Effects on the Human Body
• The average person in the United States is exposed to EMFs for more than 10 hours per day. — EMF Exposure Is 10+ Hours per Day for an Average Person
• EMF-emitting devices interact with the body's own electrical systems, including the brain, heart, and individual cells. — EMF Exposure Is 10+ Hours per Day for an Average Person
• The primary health concern with EMF exposure is cumulative, long-term accumulation rather than any single use. — EMFs: Cell Phone Radiation Effects on the Human Body
• The official position that EMFs cause no harm conflicts with a substantial body of peer-reviewed literature. — EMF Exposure Is 10+ Hours per Day for an Average Person
• A 2012 analysis of 2,000 studies linked low-level non-ionizing EMF exposure to a wide range of adverse health effects. — EMF Exposure Is 10+ Hours per Day for an Average Person
• There was no pre-market safety testing for long-term, low-level, continuous EMF exposure from multiple simultaneous sources. — EMF Exposure Is 10+ Hours per Day for an Average Person
• EMF health effects span many organ systems because the mechanism disrupts a fundamental process present in every cell of the body. — EMF Exposure Is 10+ Hours per Day for an Average Person
• Adverse health effects associated with EMF exposure include Alzheimer's disease, elevated blood pressure, insomnia, DNA damage, and increased stroke and heart attack risk. — EMF Exposure Is 10+ Hours per Day for an Average Person
