Wi-fi - Why I Don`t Think It`s as Safe as We are Led to Believe

I spend several hours each day on my computer and I must admit I often feel very "weird".

When I explained my symptoms other than family members, which I dismissed as neurotic and mood when I get my bio Guard hanging on the neck to protect from electromagnetic fields.

If I use my cell phone to the left side of my face burning, my tongue and lips Tingle, I feel a tightness in the chest, as if I can not breathe well and gives me a strange pain in my left temple. I also feel sick and disoriented.

I get the same effect if I use my computer for any length of time, especially if I'm in the room where we installed Wi-Fi frame. For those unfamiliar with Wi-Fi stands for Wireless Fidelity and is a means by which people with laptops can move and still be able to access the Internet.

We used to use a cable broadband, but because there are three people who sometimes want to be on a team at the same time, we have found wireless.

But last night on TV there was a Wi-Fi program. that made me sit up and take notice, because we have some others who have experienced the same problems.

It seems likely that I suffer from electro sensitivity. Of course, I suspected for a long time, so I wear protective bio, but I've never done a wireless link established earlier. I always thought it was the computer.

In Sweden, the problem is recognized as an official disability and affects approximately 3% of the population. If a similar figure exists in the UK, I have about 2 million other women. It is therefore strange that the government now insists there are none.

I think not.

Of course, my skepticism might be because I have been personally affected by two procedures that the government also insists that they are "safe". I've written books on these two issues so I can say no - at least not now.

Both mercury from dental amalgams and maternal mortality are controversial issues and, despite the fact that affect millions of people around the world, the government insists that all evidence is "anecdotal".

Who am I to argue?

However, the government based on international guidelines in preparing their statements and the World Health Organization (WHO), which are a major public health organizations around the world have said that, provided that such Wi-FI and the radiation emitted by mobile phone masts, there is "no adverse health effects from exposure to low level long term."

Not me.

After all, how do they know? I'm certainly no expert, but WiFi and mobile phones is relatively new, so do not think anyone has lived, from the cradle to the grave to be exposed to substances that pose the question - What is the duration of the long exposure long term?

Again the experiments in Sweden have been conducted using the lower levels of radiation emitted by wi-fi and the result was the chromosomal damage, a decrease in short-term memory, electro hypersensitivity and increased cancer.

I met in the program that government guidelines are somewhat influenced by the industry and are based on the effect of "heat" instead of "biological effects" of these radio waves.

This means that in fact their bodies are heated before they can be considered dangerous enough to require restrictions on its use.

In most cities you can find Wi-Fi, where you can use your computer. Most people have no idea when they walk along they are exposed to radiation.

Even when I turn on my home computer, I said I'm in the range of different wireless connections than mine so clearly that I am not sure on the inside either. Infact when I was still connected to broadband internet through my neighbor came round with his laptop and was able to connect via Wi-Fi next door!

At the time I thought it was fantastic. None!

In schools also, it is increasingly common to install wireless networks, and currently about 70% of secondary and 50% of primary schools.

Now, parents express concern about the potential long-term health of their children. After all their skulls are thinner and still forming and until there is conclusive evidence of the contrary, "there are no known health effects" is not very reassuring statement.

Protests are held regularly in the establishment of mobile phone masts near schools, but most people do not WI-FI is equally dangerous. Apparently, the United Kingdom, where this program was produced (2007) had 3,000 points Wi-Fi and 50,000 mobile towers for mobile telephony.

On the agenda of a radiation monitor is placed near a laptop in a classroom in almost exact position on the head of a student. The result was that the student was exposed to 3 to 4 times more radiation than not stood in the main beam of a mobile phone mast.

Afraid, huh?

People have the option of using a mobile phone, but wireless networks in classrooms to delete this personal decision. The programmers did not say what level of exposure would not be any time but especially during downloads. However, as most people use computers for Internet access, which could very likely that a considerable amount of time.

Despite all this evidence "anecdotal," the government still insist on WI-FI is safe. Until the adverse health effects have been created in a laboratory and science can not prove that there is a risk that is likely to remain in place.

I think not. Do you?
