Found a disturbing study today while researching a new wireless water meter that Neptune Technologies Group is coming to install in the home. Upon looking up the datasheet on their Neptune MACH 10 R900i device I noticed the thing operated on a number of EMF frequencies, including a 900Mhz-928Mhz band. Being curious on what these type of frequencies do to humans I looked up studies and found the following paper:
Effects of 900-MHz radiation on the hippocampus and cerebellum of adult rats and attenuation of such effects by folic acid and Boswellia sacra
Upon reading it I was horrified to learn that exposure of varying intensities in the 900Mhz frequency band produced a significant decrease in neurons in the hippocampus and cerebellum of the lab rats exposed to it in the experiment the paper dives into.
The paper was also testing the effectiveness of Folic Acid (vitamin B₉) and Boswellia Sacra extract which reportedly have known antioxidant effects. 4 groups of lab rats were used:
- Control: Rats were not exposed to 900Mhz EMF
- Exposure: Rats were irradiated for an hour a day for 21 days with 900Mhz EMF
- Boswellia Sacra: Rats were irradiated for an hour a day for 21 days with 900Mhz EMF + given Boswellia Sacra antioxidant
- Folic Acid: Rats were irradiated for an hour a day for 21 days with 900Mhz EMF + given Folic Acid
The rats in the 3 radiation testing groups were put in circular cages facing a monopole 900MHz antenna for an hour a day, the control group was not irradiated with the EMF. After testing for 21 days all groups were euthanized / sacrificed with a beyond LD50 / an hero dose of ketamine and some prilocaine, after which their brain matter was inspected.
Disturbing Results of the Experiment
After inspection of both the control and the the EMF exposed rats brain it was determined the EMF exposed group brain tissues inspection revealed a significant reduction in cells within the hippocampus and the cerebellum which is likely caused by the known oxidative stress caused by EMF exposure. Exposure to a wide range of EMF is known to produce free radical oxygen species within the body which in turn leads to oxidative stress, there is also a heating effect on the cells which may also cause damage, cancerous growth and death of cells.
In papers the above paper quoted there were experiments reporting insane figures, reporting a significant decrease of approximately 50% in numbers of hippocampal pyramidal and granule cells in the cerebrum as well as of cerebellar Purkinje and granule cells in male and female irradiated offspring.. Meaning not only were some parts of the brain almost half killed off, but the offspring off rats in the experiments were also adversely effected.
Current EMF / RF Safety Testing Standards are Completely Ineffective at Measuring the True Effects on the Body
Given that the safety and exposure levels of radio/RF and EMF devices at this moment only takes into consideration the heating of tissues during exposure, the paper above is extremely troubling. This test was only performed in the 900MHz frequency band, meaning that other frequencies may effect other cells function and count in the body of mammals. Quite disturbing when you consider we are absolutely bathed in EMF smog of all sorts of frequencies these days.
With more and more devices out there relying on wireless / RF / EMF technology lord only knows what the effect long term will be on the species of this planet. If this experiments' results are even a miniscule peak into the actual effects of being completely inundated with RF / EMF signals we may very well be looking at the source of many health issues in humans such as cancer or dementia.
I fear we're using technology without proper safety checks in place and have been for a long time. As 5G and the internet of things rolls out we're only going to be exposed to more of this stuff. It's disturbing to be honest that we choose convenience and profit over proper science and safety.
