Martin Blank, PhD – Overpowered: What Science Tells Us about the Dangers of Cell Phones and Other WIFI-Era DevicesQuote:Keys, wallet, cell phone . . . ready to go! Cell phones have become ubiquitous fixtures of twenty-first-century life—suctioned to our ears and stuck in our pockets. Yet, we’ve all heard whispers that these essential little devices give you brain cancer. Many of us are left wondering, as Maureen Dowd recently asked in the New York Times, “Are cells the new cigarettes?” Overpowered brings readers, in accessible and fascinating prose, through the science, indicating biological effects resulting from low, non-thermal levels of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation (levels considered safe by regulatory agencies), coming not only from cell phones, but many other devices we use in our homes and offices every day.Dr. Blank arms us with the information we need to lobby government and industry to keep ourselves and our families safe.

Electromagnetic Fields or EMFs are the smoking of today’s age. In fact they are much worse than smoking because you can’t see or smell them though a percentage of the population does have electromagnetic sensitivities and literally can feel them. EMFs come from technology and technology is cool and makes our lives easier. Smoking is disgusting to most of us so it’s not a big leap to believe it’s harmful. There are now more cell phones in the US than people and most people have tablets, laptops, and other devices that run on wireless networks and this massive increase in EMFs is driving much of modern day disease. The wireless industry is employing the same strategy used by big tobacco in denying EMFs are harmful. We know beyond a doubt that these EMFs are harmful, not just to human life, but all life on our planet.The problem is most of us are exposed to these fields 24/7 and with the roll out of 4G to 5G there will be even stronger EMFs to contend with. There is a lot of misleading research by the wireless industry. The US government does not fund research and it’s hard for independent researchers to get the funding they need however the evidence has been in since the 1950s and exposure has become exponentially worse since then. Occasional exposure is not an issue for most of us. It’s the chronic exposure that causes disease so these studies need to be done over a period of several years to really be effective.Dr. Martin Blank has been studying the effects of EMFs for 30+ years. His book is well written, easy to read, and is backed up by lots of published research. Do yourself a favor and read this book and then decide if EMFs and radio frequencies (RF) in particular are harmful to your health. And please be aware…they are much worse for babies and children.There are some practical things that you can do to reduce your risk such as turning off your wifi at night, putting your cell phone in airplane mode when not in use, and avoid fluorescent lights to name a few. Whether you realize it or not you’re part of a huge experiment. Humans have never been exposed to these levels of EMFs before. Don’t wait for your friends or family to drop dead from cancer or a brain tumor before taking action.Amazon 5 star review wrote:This is one of the best and most informative books on the market about biological effects of electromagnetic radiation. It is up to date being recently released. Blank not only gives direct, annotated information of myriads of studies showing the biological effects of very low levels of non-ionizing radiation, but also gives excellent critiques of industry sponsored studies that aim to “disprove” biological effects. He has good insight into the politics that prevent use of the precautionary principle. As one of the authors of the Bioinitiative report, he also refutes industry criticisms of the report. Everyone who is concerned about their health should read this book.Amazon 5 star review wrote:This is the best source of information on this topic that I have seen. The author has worked in this field and is very familiar with technology. Extensively referenced. This is an unbiased, factual look at this controversial topic.Book recommended by dr Jack Kruse.May you find the LIFE, LOVE and prosperity,Aeon
