Blood-brain barrier disruption by continuous-wave radio frequency radiation

This study adds to a growing body of evidence showing that radiofrequency radiation can compromise the blood-brain barrier, your brain's critical defense system against toxins and pathogens. What makes this research particularly significant is that it used power densities (12.8 mW/cm²) that are within range of what you might experience during a phone call held close to your head. The finding that only male rats were affected highlights an important gap in our understanding of how biological sex influences EMF sensitivity. The reality is that a compromised blood-brain barrier isn't just an academic concern - it potentially allows harmful substances to reach brain tissue that would normally be protected. While the researchers appropriately call for more studies, the precautionary principle suggests we shouldn't wait for definitive proof before taking reasonable steps to reduce our exposure, especially given that similar blood-brain barrier effects have been documented in other independent studies.
