    #804: Just Five Minutes on a Cell Phone Can Trigger Cancer

    From Hans Karov:

    Just Five Minutes on a Cell Phone Can Trigger Cancer (From the Dr. Mercola website)

    Just five minutes of exposure to mobile phone radio wave emissions can trigger cellular changes that occur during cancer development, according to new research.

    Scientists at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel, found that mobile phone signals induced the production of natural chemicals that stimulate cell division and growth “” central to the growth of tumors — even at very low power levels.

    Until now, the mainstream scientific assumption has been that electromagnetic radiation could only pose a health hazard as a result of thermal heating. However, this may not necessarily be the case.

    According to Professor Rony Seger of the Weizmann Institute, “The real significance of our findings is that cells are not inert to non-thermal mobile phone radiation… The changes we observed were clearly not caused by heating.”
