It is late May and I am sure 95% or more of the New Year's Resolutions chanted January 1st are long gone. What is not gone is the fact that our health is a gift and something to be guarded. So I ask, what are you doing to improve your health?
I am trying to eat better (organic, real food not processed, more good water (see iH2O system in earlier blog), better rest, regular exercise, and a more positive attitude.
Of course, I do everything I can to eliminate the dangers of EMF. Here are simple steps in a prioritized list:
- Cell Phone must have a BioPro chip
- BioLife pendant on your body to protect from all the other sources of EMF
- Home Harmonizer for your home, a big source of EMF pollution
- Great nutrition, when you fall short take BioProduce (pure fruits & veggies in a capsule form
There are many other protective steps like good water, exercise, sweating out toxins in a good sauna, etc.
Come back soon and look for more helpful information!

Study shows cell phone dangers, even with hands-free devices
The National Safety Council called last week for a national statewide ban on all cell phone use while driving - even hands-free systems like Bluetooth devices.
A new nationwide study by David Strayer, director of the Applied Cognition Laboratory at the University of Utah, states that drivers talking on a cell phone were four times as likely to be in an accident as those who were not - the same as if they had been drinking.

Power-Line EMFs: New Focus on Alzheimer's Disease
It's not just childhood leukemia anymore. Alzheimer's Disease is poised to take center stage in the long-simmering EMF-health controversy.
A couple of weeks ago, a group led by Martin Röösli at Switzerland's University of Bern reported that people living within 50 meters of a high-voltage power line were more likely to die with Alzheimer's. The longer they lived near a 220-380 kV power line, the greater the risk: After 15 years, the odds of dying with Alzheimer's were double the expected rate. It is this striking dose-response —with the risk increasing over time— that makes the Swiss study compelling. Röösli told Microwave News that he himself found the consistency of this increase "surprising." Other members of the Röösli team are Anke Huss, Adrian Spoerri and Matthias Egger.
The new residential study adds to a growing body of work that links Alzheimer's to occupational EMF exposures. Last year, in a review for the BioInitiative Report, Zoreh Davanipour and Gene Sobel concluded that there is "strong epidemiological evidence" that magnetic fields are a risk factor for Alzheimer's Disease. Back in 1994, Davanipour and Sobel, who are husband and wife and are based in Chicago, were the first to make this association (see MWN, J/A94). Seamstresses who use industrial sewing machines appeared to be particularly vulnerable. "This new Swiss study strengthens my opinion that long-term EMF exposure likely leads to Alzheimer's," Sobel told Microwave News. "I think that the association is real."
In a meta-analysis published in the April issue of the International Journal of Epidemiology, Ana Garcia of the University of Valencia, Spain, reported that the combined data from 14 occupational studies showed that, in general, being exposed to EMFs on the job doubled the risk of developing Alzheimer's —about the same as Röösli found among those exposed from power lines at home. This may well be a low estimate, according to Sobel. If the association is real, he said, then the true risk would be larger because Alzheimer's is often incorrectly specified as the cause of death on death certificates. As Röösli pointed out in his new paper, when diagnoses are based on clinical examinations rather than on death certificates, rates of Alzheimer's Disease can be as much two to eight times higher.
As in all epidemiological studies, occupational or residential, estimating exposures is at best approximate. Röösli said that exposures above 1 µT (10 mG) from power lines are rare in Switzerland. "I think that 0.3-0.4 µT (3-4 mG) would be a plausible value," he said, estimating the magnetic fields in homes next to the high-voltage lines. This is the same level as has been implicated in studies linking childhood leukemia to power-line EMFs.
The case favoring a link between EMFs and Alzheimer's has only become persuasive quite recently. An earlier meta-analysis, published in Occupational and Environmental Medicine last November, found that the association was inconsistent and unconvincing. This paper, also from Spain (Garcia worked on this one too), appeared just five months before the Valencia study. Why the sudden shift in outlook? The OEM analysis only included studies published through June 2003, while the cutoff for the IJE paper was April 2006. During those three years four new studies came out: three from Sweden (Feychting, Håkansson and Qiu) and one from Turkey (Harmanci). All four pointed to an Alzheimer's risk. (In an interview, Garcia explained that her two papers appeared so close together because of the journals' publication schedules.)
Then last year, after Garcia's second cut-off date, two more epidemiological studies were published: One by Röösli and the other by Sobel and Davanipour. Once again, both supported a link. "It is hard to believe that these associations are entirely due to bias," Röösli wrote in an invited commentary that accompanied the second Garcia meta-analysis.
Röösli closes his new paper on residential exposures on a note of uncertainty. "Despite the large sample size covering the whole Swiss population, these findings must be interpreted with caution, because of the lack of known biologic mechanisms," he wrote. Sobel and Davanipour have tried to fill this gap: As far back as 1996, they put forward a hypothesis that showed how EMFs could cause Alzheimer's. The process begins, they proposed, when magnetic fields increase the flow of calcium ions into cells. This, in turn, leads to the build-up of amyloid beta, a known neurotoxin, in the blood stream. Amyloid beta eventually makes its way into the brain by crossing the blood-brain barrier, where, in ways not yet fully understood, it aggregates into plaques that are hallmarks of Alzheimer's.
[If cell phone radiation can increase the permeability of the blood-brain barrier —another hot-button and unsettled issue— then it might amplify the action of EMFs by helping amyloid beta cross from the blood stream into the brain.]
"The new Röösli study is consistent with our 1996 hypothesis," Sobel said, explaining that the higher risk of Alzheimer's among those with the longest exposure fits with the idea of accumulation of amyloid beta over time. "It wouldn't take a lot of effort to find out whether magnetic fields can lead to an increase of amyloid beta in the blood," he said. In fact, Curtis Noonan and John Reif did measure a small increase of amyloid beta in the blood of electric utility workers, but, as they pointed out in a paper published in 2002, the study was limited because the workers' exposures were quite low. "To my knowledge, this was the first attempt to use amyloid beta as a biomarker for exposure to EMFs," Reif said in a telephone interview from his office at Colorado State University. "It has yet to be replicated."
Everyone agrees —Garcia, Röösli and Sobel— that more work on biological mechanisms need to be done. But as Sobel points out, "It's next to impossible to get money to do these studies."

How BioPro Cell Chips Work
The BIOPRO Cell Chip combines the benefits of two powerful, innovative and scientifically substantiated technologies: the proprietary patented MRET shield technology, and the proprietary subtle energy innovation ERT. Individually and collectively, these cutting-edge technologies offer an effective and scientifically validated way to deal with the cumulative stress associated with living in today’s electronic environment.
1) MRET (Molecular Resonance Effect Technology):The proprietary patented MRET shield technology built into the BIOPRO Cell Chip avoids the impact of electromagnetic radiation by superimposing a 'noise field' consisting of low frequencies of electromagnetic oscillations that resemble resonance frequencies of living cells in the body. These oscillations compensate and neutralize the harmful effects of EMR generated by cell phones and electronic devices while simultaneously providing support for cellular functions in the body
2) ERT (Energy Resonance Technology):
ERT reduces effects of EMR by strengthening resistance of the human biofield against EMR and restoring intercellular communications. The body's cells communicate with each other by subtle low electromagnetic signals that carry all the vital information essential for biochemical and physiological processes of the body. EMR disrupts these communication signals, which lead to observable organ-specific stress response. ERT field has been shown in several tests to reverse or lessen this stress response and thus restore communication between cells

French government bans advertising of mobiles to children
New limits will be placed on radiation levels amid fears of increased risk of cancer from phone use.
New laws cracking down on children's use of mobile phones are to be introduced in France amid growing fears that they may cause cancer and other diseases.
All advertising of the devices to children under 12 is to be prohibited under the legislation – announced by the Environment Minister, Jean-Louis Borloo, last week – and he will also take powers to ban the sale of any phone designed to be used by those under six.
The French government will also introduce new limits for radiation from the phones and make it compulsory for handsets to be sold with earphones, so that users can avoid irradiating their heads and brains. And one of the country's largest cities last month started an advertising campaign to discourage the use of the phones by children.

i-H2O - The Healthiest (Living) Water
One of the best methods of protecting yourself while living in today's toxic environment is to feed your millions of cells the best food and water available.
When it comes to food I lean upon the wisdom of my wife Michele. She is a Certified Nutritional Counselor, Certified Lifestyle Educator, and a Certified Natural Health Professional. In the spring of 2009 she will complete her certification process as a Naturopathic Doctor. Feel free to check her website out at Energetic Wellness!
I would like to focus on the "best" water available. We have actually found the "best" water on this planet. It is called i-H2O and is produced in the BIOPRO i-H2O Water System. What does it do?
- Helps hydrate cells three times faster than ordinary water
- Assists improvements in cellular function
- Aids absorption deeply into veins and capillaries
- Helps improve circulatory system
- Promotes powerful antioxidant effects
- Supports vital cell communication
- Aids in promoting healthy intestinal flora
- Supports acceleration of nutrient and vitamin availability
- Helps inhibit bacteria and fungus
- Aids collagen production
