Electromagnetic fields: no evidence of threat. (includes an excerpt from a report, 'Possible Health Effects of Exposure to Residential Electric and Magnetic Fields')
|
The National Research Council reviewed 500 studies on the threat of EMF to human wellbeing. They concluded that there is no evidence to support the idea that EMF causes cancer, reproductivity and development problems, or learning and behavioral problems. A critique of the report is also given.
No clear, convincing evidence exists to show that residential exposures to electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) are a threat to human health, a committee of the National Research Council has concluded in a new report. After examining more than 500 studies spanning 17 years of research, the ...
