The microwaves emitted by
one's mobile phone can cause
depression and other neuropsychiatric effects, according to an article published
in the Journal of Chemical Neuroanatomy, Vol 75, Part B, September 2016,
pgs. 43-51. This article also elucidates causative mechanisms of
electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS).
The research presented in this June 2003
article in Environmental Health Perspectives indicates that mobile phones
cause brain damage in rats, which have similarly constructed brains as humans.
"Nerve Cell Damage in Mammalian Brain after Exposure to Microwaves from GSM Mobile Phones"
The research presented in this April 2015
article in Biomedical Reports indicates
that microwave-induced neurotrauma shows the same pathological changes as blast
traumatic brain injury. This study also has numbered clickable links to at
least the Abstracts (short summary of the research article) of numerous other
studies.
"Pathophysiology of microwave-induced traumatic brain injury"
The research presented in this August 2016
article in Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research indicates that the long term exposure to
900-1800 MHz frequency radiations emitted from 2G mobile phone could cause
significantly reduced neuron density and decreased nuclear diameter in the
hippocampus neurons of mice. Note that the 900-1800 MHz frequency range used
for 2G is still applicable to 3G, 4G, and midband 5G, so this study cannot be
considered outdated.
This study published in Toxicology International in its Jan - Apr 2013 issue, demonstrated DNA-damaging effects of low level microwave radiation in a rat's brain, and concluded that low SAR microwave radiation exposure at these frequencies may induce DNA strand breaks in brain tissue.
Detection of Low Level Microwave Radiation Induced Deoxyribonucleic Acid Damage Vis-à-vis Genotoxicity in Brain of Fischer Rats
The research presented in this March 2010
article in International Journal of Radiation Biology concluded that
the chronic exposure to 2.45 GHz microwave radiation (the same frequency used by
microwave ovens, many wireless internet routers, and Bluetooth) may cause significant
damage to the brain, which may be an indication of possible tumor promotion.
Mutagenic response of 2.45 GHz radiation exposure on rat brain
The research presented in this study
indicates that low level microwave radiation causes breaks in DNA strands of rat
brain cells.
DNA Strand Breaks in Rat Brain Cells Exposed to Low level Microwave Radiation
The Abstract linked below, for the article
published in Bioelectromagnetics, proves it was discovered as far back as
1995 that low intensity 2.45 GHz microwave radiation caused DNA breaks in
mammalian brain cells. The full text was not available.
Acute low-intensity microwave exposure increases DNA single-strand breaks in rat brain cells
This 1996 article published in the
International Journal of Radiation Biology, found both single- and
double-strand DNA breaks in rat brain cells after acute exposure to RF
radiation.
