In the September issue of "EMR and Health" we look at new evidence for the link between EMR and diabetes and how EMR may be contributing to a global increase in the disease.
This issue also contains a feature on how to counteract damage from EMR, with evidence from a large number of international research studies.
There is also information about:
* a new legal challenge on EMR in Australia
* the progress of the Australian ELF standard
* plus all the latest news and research results from around the world.
For more information, see our newsletter, EMR and Health .
Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) is high frequency radiation that is commonly used in communications technology. It is emitted by cordless phones, mobile phones, phone towers/antennas, TV, FM and AM broadcast antennas, WIFI networks, microwave ovens, televisions and computers and many other sources.
Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are lower frequency signals most commonly associated with the use of electricity. They consist of an electric and a magnetic field and these fields are emitted by all power linewiring, electrical appliances and equipment, televisions, computers, microwave ovens. Electromagnetic emissions have been found to interfere with scientific and medical equipment and with the human body. The potential of this interference to affect human health is a much-debated and highly relevant topic at the present time. Because EMR surrounds us at home, at work and in the environment, is an issue affecting every householder, business, every health professional and local government. Note: In this website the term EMR is used to apply to both low and high frequency fields as a matter of convenience.
