How EMF Affects Plant Growth: Study Insights
A 2024 review found cell phone radiation affects green plants at every level researchers measure: growth, photosynthesis, oxidative stress, chromosomes and gene expression. Here’s what nature is telling us, and a simple experiment to try with your kids.
The Federal Court Ruling That Said the FCC Ignored the Science on Wireless Radiation
In 2021, a federal appeals court ruled the FCC failed to explain why it ignored evidence of harm — including to children — when it kept wireless exposure limits written in 1996. Here’s what the court said, what it didn’t, and why it matters for parents.
Allostatic Load: The Science of Why Every Stressor in Your Home Counts
A systematic review of 267 studies found that cumulative “wear and tear” from chronic stressors — called allostatic load — is linked to poorer health. It isn’t an EMF study, but it’s the best framework I’ve found for why reducing total exposure matters.
What MRI Technologists Teach Us About Magnetic Fields and the Body
A 2024 systematic review of 34 studies looked at the health of medical staff working around MRI magnets: temporary symptoms in 16–39% of shifts, measurable dips in visual and motor performance, possible long-term effects — and no pregnancy deviations. Here’s the nuanced picture.
Is EMF Sensitivity in Your Genes? What a New Review Says About EHS
Why does one family member get headaches near the router while another feels nothing? A 2026 review argues electromagnetic hypersensitivity sits on a genetic spectrum — involving DNA repair, oxidative stress, myelin and calcium-channel genes. Here’s the case, and the caveats.
Long-Term EMF Exposure’s Effects on Liver Health
A 2025 study used single-cell sequencing to map how 55,553 liver cells responded to months of 2.45 GHz exposure in mice. Metabolism, immune cells and one specific liver zone shifted. Here’s what that means — including the honest part about dose.
