More bad research from the WHO?
September 6, 2023
Just when evidence that radiofrequency radiation causes oxidative stress (which harms the body) has become compelling, the WHO produces a study casting doubt on that evidence.
How did it do that?
By ignoring 99% of the relevant research.
The study was commissioned and partly funded by the World Health Organization and conducted by Felix Meyer. It concluded that ‘The evidence on the relation between the exposure to RF-EMF and biomarkers of oxidative stress was of very low certainty.’ 1
However, scientists are calling for the study to be retracted because it ignored such a large percentage of the relevant research and it did not adequately consider the ‘dynamic nature’ of oxidative stress. 2
There is now a large body of evidence showing that radiofrequency radiation causes oxidative stress, which occurs in cancer, diabetes, congenital malformations and neurodegenerative diseases. It’s also linked with the hardening of blood vessels, inflammation, high blood pressure, heart disease and ageing.
Just last week EMR Australia reported evidence that electromagnetic pollution causes oxidative stress and ROS (reactive oxygen species) whose toxic biproducts may cause an auto-immune reaction. This, the authors say, could explain the symptoms of people who develop symptoms from exposure. 3
Meyer’s study is the third of three systematic reviews produced by the WHO that experts claim should be retracted.
