Research: Electromagnetic Fields, Dental Amalgam & Health
1. Reviewers for a comprehensive Electromagnetic Field (EMF) risk assessment by the California Department of Health Services have determined that it is highly likely that EMF causes some forms of cancer, along with chronic neurological conditions like ALS, Alzheimer’s disease and depression.
2. Medical and epidemiological studies have found strong evidence that EMF exposure causes some forms of cancer, along with neurological conditions like ALS, Alzheimer’s disease and depression.
3. One mechanism by which EMF causes these immune and neurological conditions is the fact that EMF has been found to cause significant increases in release of mercury into the body of those with amalgam dental fillings; and mercury has been documented to cause all of these immune and neurological conditions.
4. Amalgam dental fillings have been documented to be the largest source of mercury in most people who have amalgam fillings, with common mercury exposures more than Government health guidelines.
5. Most people get significant exposures to Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) from computer monitors, televisions, microwaves, other appliances, and power lines. These exposures have been found to significantly increase release and excretion of mercury in those with amalgam fillings.
Documentation
In a long term comprehensive electromagnetic fields (EMF) risk assessment study by the California Department of Health Services, all reviewers concluded that it is highly likely that EMF causes some forms of cancer, along with chronic neurological conditions like ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease) and depression. They also found a significant likelihood that EMF causes cardiovascular problems and increased suicide. People are commonly exposed to electromagnetic fields from computer monitors, microwaves, televisions, other appliances, and power lines.
Actually there is strong evidence in the medical literature already supporting these conclusions and documenting mechanisms by which the effects occur. The evidence is based on the fact that chronic mercury exposure has been documented to cause all of these conditions, and EMF exposure has been documented to cause significant release of mercury into the body, including the brain and central nervous system, from those who have amalgam fillings.
Studies have found persons with chronic exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF) to have higher levels of mercury exposure and excretion. Electromagnetic fields are known to induce current in metals and would increase the documented effects of galvanism. Amalgam has also been documented to be the largest source of mercury exposure in most people who have amalgam fillings.
EMF is also documented in animal and human studies to cause cellular calcium efflux and affect calcium homeostasis, which may be a factor in the reduction of melatonin levels caused by EMF exposure in animal and human studies. In studies on chicks this had significant adverse effects on viability of embryos and chicks.
Melatonin is known to be protective against mercury and free radical activity, as well as regulating the circadian rhythm cycle and sleep cycle. EMF exposure lowers melatonin production and disrupts the sleep cycle. Another study provides evidence for an association between occupational electromagnetic fields and suicide. The authors indicate that a plausible mechanism related to melatonin and depression provides a direction for additional laboratory research as well as epidemiological evaluation.
Occupational exposure to higher levels of EMF have also been found in many studies to result in much higher risk of chronic degenerative neurological conditions such as ALS, Alzheimer’s Disease, Depression, as well as leukemia and cancer.
Since EMF causes increased mercury exposure in those with amalgam, and mercury is also known to cause these conditions, it is not clear the relative importance of the factors since the studies were not controlled for mercury levels or number of amalgam fillings. But many suffering symptoms from EMF exposure/sensitivity have improved after amalgam filling replacement.

"As a young person who has struggled with excessive tiredness and fatigue for a long time, this book came as a breath of fresh air. It was inspiring to read an account which not only clearly demonstrated the complexities of the condition, but clearly set out the means in which to heal."
