About Bluetooth Devices EMF

  • -Your Bluetooth earbuds, wireless mouse, and smartphone are constantly communicating through radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic fields in the 2.4 to 2.5 GHz range.
  • -While these devices have revolutionized how we connect and communicate, they also represent one of the most intimate sources of EMF exposure in our daily lives-often positioned directly against our heads, in our pockets, or on our bodies for hours at a time.
  • -Put simply, Bluetooth technology works by transmitting data through pulsed radiofrequency signals, and your body absorbs a portion of this energy whenever these devices are active.

THE EFFECT OF MICROWAVES ON BONE AND BONE MARROW AND ON ADJACENT TISSUES

Joseph P. Engel et al. · 1950

Researchers exposed anesthetized and trained dogs to microwave diathermy at 2,450 megacycles per second and measured temperature changes in tibial cortex, marrow, muscle, and subcutaneous tissue. For subcutaneously located bone, 30 minutes at 65 watts raised tibial cortex temperature by 5.0 degrees (C.) and marrow by 3.4 degrees (C.). For submuscularly located bone, the same exposure raised cortex by 3.8 degrees (C.) and marrow by 3.0 degrees (C.). A rectangular director allowed higher temperatures in subcutaneously located bone without excessively heating adjacent soft tissue. An impedance-matching transformer increased tissue temperature rises by approximately 300 per cent.
