Debate over cell phones, cancer revived

By TARA PARKER-POPE
NEW YORK TIMES

Last week, three prominent neurosurgeons told the CNN interviewer Larry
King that they did not hold cell phones next to their ears. "I think the safe practice is to use an earpiece so you keep the microwave antenna away from your brain," said Dr. Keith Black, a surgeon at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.

Dr. Vini Khurana, an associate professor of neurosurgery at the Australian National University who is an outspoken critic of cell phones, said: "I use it on the speaker-phone mode. I do not hold it to my ear."

And CNN's chief medical correspondent, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, a neurosurgeon at Emory University Hospital, said that, like Black, he used an earpiece.

Along with Massachusetts Sen. Edward Kennedy's recent diagnosis of a glioma, a type of tumor that critics have long associated with cell phone use, the doctors' remarks have helped reignite a long-simmering debate about cell phones and cancer.

That supposed link has been largely dismissed by many experts, including the American Cancer Society. The theory that cell phones cause brain tumors "defies credulity," said Dr. Eugene Flamm, chairman of neurosurgery at Montefiore Medical Center.

According to the Food and Drug Administration, three large epidemiology studies since 2000 have shown no harmful effects. CTIA — the Wireless Association, the leading industry trade group, said in a statement, "The overwhelming majority of studies that have been published in scientific journals around the globe show that wireless phones do not pose a health risk."

The FDA notes, however, that the average period of phone use in the studies it cites was about three years, so the research doesn't answer questions about long-term exposures. Critics say many studies are flawed for that reason, and also because they do not distinguish between casual and heavy use.

Cell phones emit nonionizing radiation, waves of energy that are too weak to break chemical bonds or to set off the DNA damage known to cause cancer. There is no known biological mechanism to explain how nonionizing radiation might lead to cancer.

But researchers who have raised concerns say that just because science can't explain the mechanism doesn't mean one does not exist. Concerns have focused on the heat generated by cell phones and the fact that the radio frequencies are absorbed mostly by the head and neck. In recent studies that suggest a risk, the tumors tend to occur on the same side of the head where the patient typically holds the phone.

Like most research on the subject, the studies are observational, showing only an association between cell phone use and cancer, not a causal relationship. The most important of these studies is called Interphone, a vast research effort in 13 countries, including Canada, Israel and several in Europe.

Some of the research suggests a link between cell phone use and three types of tumors: glioma; cancer of the parotid, a salivary gland near the ear; and acoustic neuroma, a tumor that essentially occurs where the ear meets the brain. All these cancers are rare, so even if cell phone use does increase risk, the risk is still very low.

Last year, The American Journal of Epidemiology published data from Israel finding a 58 percent higher risk of parotid gland tumors among heavy cell phone users. Also last year, a Swedish analysis of 16 studies in the journal Occupational and Environmental Medicine showed a doubling of risk for acoustic neuroma and glioma after 10 years of heavy cell phone use.

"What we're seeing is suggestions in epidemiological studies that have looked at people using phones for 10 or more years," says Louis Slesin, editor of Microwave News, an industry publication that tracks the research. "There are some very disconcerting findings that suggest a problem, although it's much too early to reach a conclusive view."

Some doctors say the real concern is not older cell phone users, who began using phones as adults, but children who are beginning to use phones today and face a lifetime of exposure.

"More and more kids are using cell phones," said Dr. Paul Rosch, clinical professor of medicine and psychiatry at New York Medical College. "They may be much more affected. Their brains are growing rapidly, and their skulls are thinner."

For people who are concerned about any possible risk, a simple solution is to use a headset. Of course, that option isn't always convenient, and some critics have raised worries about wireless devices like the Bluetooth that essentially place a transmitter in the ear.

The fear is that even if the individual risk of using a cell phone is low, with 3 billion users worldwide, even a minuscule risk would translate into a major public health concern.

"We cannot say with any certainty that cell phones are either safe or not safe," Black said on CNN. "My concern is that with the widespread use of cell phones, the worst scenario would be that we get the definitive study 10 years from now, and we find out there is a correlation."

Additional study:

Mobile phones could kill far more people than smoking or asbestos, a study
by an award-winning cancer expert has concluded. He says people
should avoid using them wherever possible and that governments and the
mobile phone industry must take "immediate steps" to reduce exposure to
their radiation.

The study, by Dr. Vini Khurana, is the most devastating indictment
yet published of the health risks.

Several factors that have been ignored with the research of brain tumors and
cell phone use the effects of EMF's on other toxic chemicals, in tissue. And
the tissue itself.

The majority of Americans are out of balance with Omega Fatty Acids 3, 6 and 9.
Cells are then made with the wrong lipids, causing confusion with in the immune
system, when the cell dies. Of which is why (I suspect) that so many studies have
shown the benefits of Omega 3 therapy (fish oil) that Garth Nicolson PhD calls,
"lipid replacement therapy". Reference www.immed.org

It has been shown the EMF's can alter the vibration of radon and increase it's
"toxic impact".

In reference:
Title: Are pylons and radon a lethal cocktail.
By O'Brien-Claire.
New-Scientist. Feb 17, 1996. v149(n2017). p4(1).

The physics of this should also be applicable to other toxic chemicals and other
common Volatile Organic Compounds.'s as well as what I term, "the toxic lotto".

The following is an excerpt from, "Toxic Revelations"

A Congressional Report states that of the 1,400 chemicals known to cause
cancer, less than 6% are tracked (145B). The huge transnational companies
that produce toxic chemicals found in pesticides, herbicides and industrial and
household products profit not only from the sale of these products, but also from
the symptoms and chronic illnesses that they can trigger (157).

To simplify the complexity of the controversy (14), I will give this example.
Bill Moyers of the Public Broadcasting System did a show named Trade Secrets
and has created a web page of the same name (26). There is to much documentation
there to list, in regard to "industry" covering up the damage to OUR HEALTH from
toxic chemicals, for over fifty years.

Bill Moyers was tested for over 800 toxic chemicals and over 80 chemicals
(at various levels of exposure) were found, in him (26). That presents the potential
for more viable chemicals reaction variations than the pick six lottery in one patient
from the perspective of the Low Dose Cumulative Effects of Toxic Chemical's !
But regardless of this, many of the "tolerable levels of exposure" to a (singular)
toxic chemical have been fraudulently produced for decades.

But it is well documented in the book "Toxic Deception (81) that they have
known this since the 1970's. In the 1950's, 1960's and 1970's, Industrial Bio-
Test Laboratories (IBT) performed about 35-40% of all U.S. Toxicology testing.
Of the 867 audits of IBT performed by the FDA under the 1962 law, 618 were
found to be invalid because of numerous discrepancies between the study conduct
and data. FDA flexed its muscles and found four IBT managers guilty of fraud."
Yet the EPA has still been accepting these "studies" that are financed by industry,
with out any real review !!! www.westgard.com/guest16.htm

Next excerpt:

Quote from the Vets at "Beyond Treason,

" What you don't know about your
government could kill you... Department of Defense documents obtained through
the Freedom of Information Act expose the horrific underworld of the disposable
army mentality and the government funded experimentation upon US citizens
conducted without their knowledge or consent.".

End of quote.

Mycoplasma's have been studied by the United States government for decades,
as a type of biological weapon known as "incapacitating agents".
www.immed.org/illness/bioterrorism.html

Your immune system is only as strong as the weakest gene. One might pop at a
heart attack and another at macular degeneration, from the same influences.

Toxic chemical exposures can reduce the immune systems ability to deal with
sub-clinical (not acute) "stealth" infections, such as mycoplasma's.

A simple Google search: toxic influence immune system

Also see: Scholarly articles for toxic influence immune system

In many instances, toxic chemicals can multiply in their "Toxic Impact", rather
than add (16).. A recent example of a study that I heard about is rather simple.
They gave 100 rats the LD50 of lead. (The LD50 stands for Lethal Dose 50 stands
for 50 out of 100 of the rats die). They also gave the 100 rats the LD50 of mercury
and guess what? All of the 100 rats died. In many instances, the multiplication is
much high. Hundreds of times more toxic, when certain chemicals mix. I have
heard thousands of times, in some circumstances.

More information about the "toxic mix" multiplying in toxicity rather than adding,
in many instances can be found at (16) Considering Cumulative Effects Under the
National Environmental Policy Act
ceq.eh.doe.gov/nepa/ccenepa/ccenepa.htm

In correspondences with Garth Nicolson Ph.D.. it became clear that the same
can be said of infectious diseases. Such as mycoplasma's and viruses having a
much higher combined impact that one of them alone (73). The Medical Sentinel
is the official, peer-reviewed journal of the Association of American Physicians and
Surgeons. They published an article titled,

"Mycoplasmal Infections in Chronic Illnesses: Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndromes,
Gulf War Illness, HIV-AIDS and Rheumatoid Arthritis", by Garth Nicolson Ph.D.
Medical Sentinel 1999;4:172-176(73) .

And to further complicate the issues, the toxic chemicals can cause a predisposition
for sub-clinical infections with mycoplasma's (67).

171: ANALYSIS OF MULTIFACTORIAL ILLNESSES OF THE GULF WAR;
THE ROLE OF CHEMICAL, BIOLOGICAL AND RADIOLOGICAL EXPOSURES
IN GULF WAR ILLNESSES, CHRONIC DISORDERS AND MENTAL HEALTH,
by Garth Nicolson PhD. www.angelfire.com/nm/redcol...eplyN.html


The mycoplasma's are discussed in far more detail in the Biological Weapons
section of this posting. But you will need a simple basis to comprehend the
operating sequence of the toxic chemicals and how they work with these
infectious agents (mycoplasma's). Of which has been with held from even
the medical community. Please note that toxic chemicals can also have an
impact on other infectious agents, too.

The simple facts are that chemical companies developed chemical and
biological weapons for our country. Back in World War One and Two,
they made things like nerve gas. At some point, the watered down the
nerve gas and started calling them "pesticides". The chemical companies
and the pharmaceutical companies are really controlled by the same people.

Now that is a business plan, called "Poison for Profit". Even more
disturbing is what is termed "the revolving door" from these companies
and their executives into many of the high ranking administration
offices of our government, in Washington DC. From the National
Institute of Health to the Food and Drug Administration and beyond.

"The revolving door" is easily shown with an Internet www.google.com
search term, "revolving door washington DC drugs chemical companies".
