The above site lists EMF’s (electromagnetic fields) as TOXIC.
Certainly sitting or standing very close to a TV for extended periods of time would not be good.
However, the issues surrounding reduction of Melatonin and restoration of circadian rhythm, etc. — adverse effects of improper sleep all related to sleeping close to electrical items at night is “a major concern!!”
Electric and gas meters, ANY electric clock, monitors, fans, touchlamps, lamps with dimmer switches, power supply boxes for games and cordless phones, and much more including but not limited to improper wiring or waterpipes carrying currents over or under beds are all potentially deadly depending upon proximity and amount of chronic prolonged exposure.
Night after night of improper sleep/lack of sleep contributes to every health problem from poor sleep to cancer.
I am a non-accredited EMF/EMR researcher with over 15 years’ experience as a victim myself (high voltage powerlines only 50 ft. from front of our house), grandmother of two boys diagnosed w/rare immune deficiencies AND research in my own home exposing guinea pigs to our back bedroom wall — exactly where our children slept while growing up and our grandchildren after that (daycare).
Bottom line: when “close sleeping exposures” were reduced, lab results confirmed improvement that was also being observed and documented.
Similar circumstances re guinea pig exposures, however, one out of each set of two guinea pigs tragically died within 30 days’ exposure.
The guinea pigs’ tests revealed a “collapse of immune function” — severe neutropenia and lymphocytosis!!!
I moved my husband’s electric clock radio. He had been diagnosed w/Alzheimers about two years ago.
My husband is now said not to have Alzheimers!! He is, however, still suffering moderate to severe memory and cognitivie impairment.
I believe the electric clock radio increased damage I did not know was occurring due to taking statins.
While this part of my commentary may not seem to pertain to concerns re autism, additional research I have done re certain vitamins and supplements indicate persons need to be very aware that, under circumstances of chronic EMF/EMR exposure — particularly when one’s body is trying to restore circadian rhythm/function of hormones, etc., even Vitamin C can become a free radical.
My concerns relate both to things consumed during the prenatal period but also anything prescribed for newborn, toddlers, or children or persons of any age regarding a combination of exposures that have the potential to wreak havoc on particularly the central nervous system.
While this website is important and interesting, I do not think the EMF issue is being given the serious attention needed in order to help the persons the government is trying to keep “uninformed.”
I am also concerned when a specific request is made to contact Dr. Perlmutter directly and the only response is “waiting for your comment on the blog!!!”
