    How to Decrease Your Cancer Risk Dr. Mitchell Gaynor: on Food and Environmental Exposure

    Transcript: http://ehtrust.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Transcript_Mitchell-Gaynor-MD.pdf Mitchell Gaynor explores the environmental exposures that contribute to cancer growth. “Everyone is walking around with cancer in their bodies." He explains that the strategy is not to eradicate every cancer cell but rather to keep cancer cells dormant so that they do not become active. He discusses the key things each person can do to protect themselves from toxic environmental exposures such as flame retardants, phalates, dioxins, white sugar and radio frequency radiation.  “Be careful with cell phones and electronic items, use wired rather than wireless when possible.” He details detoxifying enzymes and foods we can eat to increase our bodies' ability to fight cancer.    Dr. Mitchell Gaynor is a  board certified medical oncologist, internist and hematologist,  Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College. Dr. Gaynor has served as the medical director and director of medical oncology at the Weill Cornell Center for Complementary and Integrative Medicine.  #PracticeSafeTech www.ehtrust.org Learn more at ehtrust.org and sign up for our newsletter: https://ehtrust.org/publications/newsletters/ Read the research on EMFs and health here: https://ehtrust.org/science/top-experimental-epidemiological-studies/ Get the facts about 5G here: https://ehtrust.org/key-issues/cell-phoneswireless/5g-internet-everything/20-quick-facts-what-you-need-to-know-about-5g-wireless-and-small-cells/

    Interview With Jonathan Mirin, Director of "Canary In A Gold Mine"

    Waking up to our wireless reality!  Jonathan, of Piti Theatre, uses a comedic lens to explore fatherhood, marriage, and environmental health. The must watch show, which premiered earlier this year, was well received at the Ko Fest, so much so that he’s held command performances and it’s now available to stream on demand.  Jonathan shares his experience and the art of telling a difficult story about the severe neurological symptoms triggered by exposure to EMFs. He will discuss the disconnect between the passionate embrace of wireless technology by society and his own need to become a public health advocate as Godeliève’s electro-hypersensitivity (a.k.a. “microwave sickness”) worsens. Jonathan fashioned a 21st century love letter as well as a wakeup call to the risks of 24/7 wireless exposure.

    Press Conference: EHT et al. v. FCC | Landmark Case on Wireless 5G Safety

    In an historic decision, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit judged in favor of environmental health groups and petitioners on Aug. 13, 2021, finding the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) violated the Administrative Procedure Act and failed to respond to comments on environmental harm. The court ruled that the decision by the FCC to retain its 1996 safety limits for human exposure to wireless radiation was “arbitrary and capricious.”  and held that the FCC failed to respond to “record evidence that exposure to RF radiation at levels below the Commission’s current limits may cause negative health effects unrelated to cancer.”    Further, the agency demonstrated “a complete failure to respond to comments concerning environmental harm caused by RF radiation.” The court found the FCC ignored numerous organizations, scientists  and medical doctors who called on them to update limits and the court found the FCC failed to address these issues:   On August 16, 2021, Environmental Health Trust held a Press Conference with Devra Davis PhD, MPH, EHT president; Dr. Hugh Taylor MD Chair of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences, Yale School of Medicine and Yale-New Haven Hospital and president of American Society of  Reproductive Medicine; Edward B. Myers, EHT attorney; Theodora Scarato MSW, EHT Executive Director and a petitioner in the case; Frank Clegg, CEO of Canadians for Safe Technology and former President of Microsoft Canada; Paul Ben Ishai PhD, professor of physics at Ariel University in Israel; Cindy Franklin, founder of Consumers for Safe Cell Phones and a petitioner in the case, and Elizabeth Barris, director of the Peoples Initiative Foundation and a petitioner in the case.   Human exposure guidelines for wireless radiation were last set in 1996.    Full details on the case found at https://ehtrust.org/in-historic-decision-federal-court-finds-fcc-failed-to-explain-why-it-ignored-scientific-evidence-showing-harm-from-wireless-radiation/  The transcript of the press conference can be found at  Sign Up for EHT's newsletter at https://ehtrust.org/publications/newsletters/ Like EHT on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EHTrust Follow EHT on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ehtrust/ Learn and Support EHT on Patreon at  https://www.patreon.com/ehtrust Subscribe to EHT’s YouTube to get more news and information on 5G and wireless.

    Why Big Telecom Ignores the Science on 5G | Dr. Kent Chamberlin | Patreon Live Event

    "A technology that I had once thought was harmless, it turns out to be harmful so I'm here to tell you what that harm is."    Dr. Kent Chamberlin is chair and a professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in the University of New Hampshire.  In this Patreon presentation, Chamberlin discusses how the telecom industry fights against any limitations to its wireless infrastructure, the FCC's unprotective safety standards, and why our regulatory agencies don't do more to protect the public.    Chamberlin was appointed in 2019 by the university system chancellor to serve on the New Hampshire 5G Commission. The commission was formed by legislation passed by the state assembly. The 12-person commission met for a year to review the science and to speak to outside experts.    Chamberlin said all the presenters except one provided clear evidence that wireless radiation posed a threat to human health and the environment. The presenter who did not acknowledge those risks was the presenter from the telecom industry. That presenter was also the only person paid to present to the commission.    The commission concluded in its report that 5G poses a significant risk to health and the environment. Three commission members dissented, including the two commissioners who were representing the telecommunications industry and state Sen. James Gray.    Nonetheless, the majority of the commission developed a list of recommendations, including establishing a 500-meter setback for the installation of cell towers. A setback law is designed to protect the people from wireless radiation exposure from cell towers, It would mean more costs to the telecom industry to position towers out of harm's way.     Legislation has been written to implement the commission's recommendations but it won't be voted on until fall 2022. Chamberlin calls it an uphill battle because of telecom's deep pockets and its threats to challenge lawmakers who vote against the wireless industry.     In the meantime, telecom continues to argue that the health impacts are not attributable to the wireless infrastructure despite hundreds of studies showing a relationship. Chamberlin says telecom is counting on the public shrugging at the experiences of those who are electro hypersensitive since many of the onset symptoms are common — nausea, headaches, fatigue, insomnia, memory loss, confusion, and weakness. Studies show that ongoing exposure to electromagnetic fields may cause more serious issues, like the creation of radical oxidative stress in the body that could lead to other diseases.     "You're probably going, 'Wow this is serious stuff. How come we don't know about it?'" Chamberlin said. "You would expect this to be on the front page of newspapers but please consider where does a lot of the advertising revenue come from? For many news outlets, who advertises a huge amount? You know, the companies, the telecom industries. So apparently from what I've seen, news outlets are very unwilling to bite the hand that feeds them."

    Lead in Everyday Products | Avoid Lead Poisoning at Home | Q&A with "MisLEAD" Director Tamara Rubin

    Imagine being told that you don't have to worry about your children being poisoned by lead because you don't fit the demographic. That's what Tamara Rubin heard from medical professionals after her children were poisoned during the rehab of their family home.   After she moved her family out of the house, Rubin, who had a background in film production and performing arts began investigating the toxicity of lead paint and laws to protect families. She decided that she needed to produce a film for families from all walks of life who may not realize that their children's behavioral problems could be caused by lead in paint that is not adequately regulated.  As it turns out, even though lead paint is "outlawed" in the U.S., lead paint is still used in imported household products and toys, and lead is still used in industrial paints for marine and transportation infrastructure.   While new household paint is "lead free," meaning it contains fewer than 90 parts per million lead, the level that is toxic for children, lead paint on existing homes is not "illegal" in the U.S. if the paint contains fewer than 600 parts per million. In th U.K., the limit is 20,000 parts per million.   But in order to get federal funding for remediation of your home, a property must test positive for one milligram of lead per centimeter squared, which is roughly equivalent to 5,000 parts per million lead. If your house tests positive for 0.9 milligrams per centimeter squared, or roughly the equivalent of 4,500 parts per million lead, — which is a lot more than 90 parts per million lead — then the home is not eligible for federal funding and intervention.  With the laws as incomplete as they are, Rubin, who runs the Lead Safe Mama blog (https://tamararubin.com/), urges families to get educated so they can create a groundswell to petition government agencies to combat lead in household products and remediate older properties.
