EMFs and biochemistry

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2011

Evidence is accumulating that electromagnetic fields induce biochemical changes. A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association shows that cellphone EMFs temporarily boost brain cell metabolism. We don’t know yet if this is good, bad or indifferent.

A study published a few years ago in the Journal of Biochemistry shows that cellphone EMFs affect proteins. And ongoing research in Germany details how low-level EMFs inhibit tamoxifen, an anticancer drug widely used to treat breast cancer.

Most of us live in EMFs that are higher than humans evolved with. In that sense we’re all guinea pigs. It’s time we had more research on the biochemical effects of EMFs.
