Electromagnetic Field (EMF) Radiation and Your Eyes
Electromagnetic Field (EMF) Radiation and Your Eyes

Do you use cell phones and computers for extended periods of time? Here are a few things
you should know about electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation and how it can affect your eyes:

* In 2001, German scientists found a link between cell phone radiation and eye cancer. The
study investigated a form of eye cancer called uveal melanoma, in which tumours form in the
layer that makes up the iris and base of the retina. The research suggests there is a threefold
increase in eye cancers among people who regularly use the devices. (

Cancer to Mobile Phones")

* According to public health scientist Dr. George Carlo, in 2006 there will be 40,000+ new
cases of brain tumors and eye melanoma diagnosed worldwide directly attributed to cell phone
usage. In 2010, that number will be an unprecedented 500,000 cases PER YEAR. (
Dr. Carlo's
interviews.)

* A group of Israeli researchers found a link between microwave radiation and the development
of cataracts. The study shows that prolonged exposure to microwave radiation similar to that
used by cellular phones can lead to both macroscopic and microscopic damage to the lens
and that at least part of this damage seems to accumulate over time and does not seem to
heal. (
"Cell Phone Radiation May Cause Visual Damage")

* Ophthalmologic symptoms of electrosensitivity and electromagnetic hypersensitivity include
pain or burning in the eyes, pressure in/behind the eyes, deteriorating vision, floaters,
cataracts. It is hypothesized that the watery contents of the eye assists the absorption of
radiation.

FOUR THINGS YOU CAN DO

1. Minimize use of cell phones, as well as computers and other electrical devices. (Not a
practical or convenient solution, but avoidance is always the primary intervention.)

2. Eyeglass frames should ideally be made from plastic with no wires in them, otherwise they
can serve as an antenna to focus the radio and cellular phone waves directly into your brain
and eyes. (Dr. Mercola)

3. Take anti-oxidants, particularly SOD, catalase, glutathione, and Co-Q10. Microwave
radiation has been shown to decrease levels of these anti-oxidants in the body. Other
supplements you may need are:
- Melatonin: a powerful anti-oxidant noted to prevent DNA breaks in brain cells. Also effective    
  in preventing kidney damage from cell phones

- Zinc: protects the eye from oxidative damage and helps preserve the levels of
  anti-oxidants in the blood

- Gingko Biloba: an herb considered a powerful anti-oxidant which prevents oxidative
  damage in the brain, eye and kidney. Also helps support the production of SOD, catalase
  and glutathione

- Bilberry extract: preserves vision and reduces oxidative damage to the eyes. (Dr. Gerald
  Goldberg)

4. Use scientifically validated EMF protection devices. Most recommended are wearable types
that effectively reduce the effects of EMF radiation on your biofield. The biofield is your first
line of defense against stress. EMF radiation is known to disrupt the biofield, place stress on
your body and weaken your immune system. The right protective device strengthens your
biofield against this disruption and maintains its delicate homeostatic balance.
