American Heart Association Is Silent On Heart Cancer And Irregular Heart Rate Risks From Cell Phones, Cell Towers, And Wireless Radiation.

Why? AT&T And IBM Sit On The Advisory Board!

By Nina Beety

"The American Heart Association’s mission statement is

To build healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke.

Yet, AHA fails to warn the public about serious, life-threatening cardiac impacts from wireless radiation exposure.

These risks include heart rhythm disturbances, heart tumors, cardiac arrest, as well as red blood cell clumping, high blood pressure, and stroke. Its only advisory — about pacemakers and ICDs — advises keeping cell phones 6” away from pacemakers/ICDs and out of pockets next to them, but claims cell phones are a “very small risk” to ICDs and “even less of a risk” to pacemakers.

Why the silence? AT&T and IBM sit on the American Heart Association CEO Roundtable advisory board, and have also likely contributed substantial dollar and in-kind donations to AHA.

How could the AHA say nothing when the National Toxicology Program research showed heart tumors after only two years of exposure? Yet, it did not.

Heart rhythm disturbances including Afib are increasing – no surprise. This is a common effect from microwave radiation exposure, which is rapidly rising. Yet, AHA fails to warn the public about this very common risk factor. Heart rhythm disturbances are frightening and can be extremely dangerous.

Untreated atrial fibrillation doubles the risk of heart-related deaths and is associated with a 5-fold increased risk for stroke. — American Heart Association

Solutions can be very simple and cheap. But with no information and no investigation, the public undertakes expensive and risky medications and surgical procedures. Incidentally, pharmaceutical companies and medical device manufacturers also sit on the CEO Roundtable advisory board.

Calling AHA’s 800 number and speaking with an AHA spokeperson confirmed there are no advisories.

Instead, AHA acts as a cheerleader. It has launched the My Cardiac Coach app “designed to be a personalized recovery toolkit on your smart phone”, ensuring more microwave exposure with

– Trustworthy information from experts of the American Heart Association
— Interactive lessons to help you learn what you need to know
— Progress monitors for tracking blood pressure and weight
— Tools for logging physical activity and managing medications
— Connections to other survivors through our support network heart.org

AHA additionally encourages cellphone use and publishes “studies” in its Journal that cellphones can assist in healthy lifestyles. This is all advertising for wireless tech and the toxic “Internet of Things.”

Bizarrely, AHA explains on its website that heart function is controlled by electrical energy, but omits all mention that the heart, neurological system, and entire body are constantly and increasingly bombarded with pulsed microwave radiation, exposed to high electromagnetic radiation fields from common household appliances, and surrounded by artificial low frequency EMF from electrical wiring.

The American Heart Association is a huge organization and considered a reliable source, but it is violating its mission, betraying the public’s trust, and causing great and avoidable harm.

On the CEO Roundtable:

The CEO Roundtable members have collectively pledged to:

Serve as role models in taking positive steps toward healthy living.
Disseminate AHA research and other evidence-based outcomes on the science of workplace health among employers and employees.
Incorporate innovative technologies that help employees build, monitor and maintain healthy lifestyle habits.
Promote AHA’s Life’s Simple 7 as an evidence-based common standard for tracking heart health.
Recognize companies that build a culture of health and improved health outcomes for their workforce.
Amplify a clear call to action for other CEOs to take action in their own companies and communities.

This article is not mine!

It points out a worldwide health problem that is not being addressed!

Multinational corporations are on the boards of the majority of associations, groups, and charities!

They have paid corporate shills who seem to be ready to defame and discredit the articles or opinions on this site, they are here!

They use any means possible from small nitpicking to all out attacks!

We live under a corporate state that makes everything that they do not like or agree with out to be a deluded conspiracy!

the tests (two studies) were done on rats. RATS. two years to a rat is not the same as two years to a human. the average lifespan of a rat IS two years. has anyone studied cell phone exposure for a human's whole life? according to scientific american, which i think has a WEE bit more credibility than your source, "Taken together, the findings 'confirm that RF radiation exposure has biological effects' in rats, some of them 'relevant to carcinogenesis,' says Jon Samet, a professor of preventive medicine and dean of the Colorado School of Public Health, who did not participate in either study. Samet, however, cautioned the jury is still out as to whether wireless technology is similarly risky to people. Indeed, heart schwannomas are exceedingly rare in humans; only a handful of cases have ever been documented in the medical literature." that rarity would be with or without cell phones. of one of the tests, scientific american says "The exposures began when the rats were fetuses and continued for 19 hours a day until the animals died from natural causes." oh.. i see. they died from natural causes. hmm.

from the same source: "A few epidemiology studies have reported higher rates of tumors inside the skull among people who use cell phones heavily for 10 years or more. Of particular concern are benign Schwann cell tumors called acoustic neuromas, which affect nerve cells connecting the inner ear with structures inside the brain. These growths can in some instances progress to malignant cancer with time. But other studies have found no evidence of acoustic neuromas or brain tumors in heavy cell phone users."

"SmartMeterHarm.org"??? Some anonymous blog by someone who can't even afford hosting space?

Harvard Medical Doctor Warns Against Smart Meters

@of-the-mountain note how that is not harvard's site.

i once read a book by adele davis. somewhere in the book she mentioned that the human body needs the equivalent of about a teaspoon (or tablespoon -- it's been half a century so i forget which) of salad oil per day. she also added that most of us take in a lot more oil than that in our daily diets. then i read another book by someone else, whose name i have blessedly forgotten, and this author cited adele davis as her source. she claimed that adele davis had recommended drinking that much salad oil per day. that isn't SO. she hadn't understood what davis said. but you know, she had an expert she could name as backup, and who cares that she got it wrong? this article says a "harvard medical doctor." well, okay, it's a doctor who graduated from harvard medical school. he isn't a doctor AT harvard, and harvard medical school is not the source here. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE. he's just a guy who has an opinion. notice that there are PRODUCTS involved, conveniently for sale. what a surprise.

@genessa Indeed---ALWAYS question the source and look up citations!

@genessa

If must be nice to be a corporate shill!

It seems there are more and more of them on this site!

You attack anything without actually understanding the content!

In your small minded world any information not passed by your handler is a conspiracy!

@of-the-mountain in what way am i a corporate shill? do you always jump to outrageous conclusions based on no evidence? you don't know me. paranoid much? i have never worked for or represented or even LIKED a corporation in my life but hey, you don't like what i said so i must be a corporate shill. i don't agree with you, so obviously 1. i am attacking you and 2. i don't understand (if i understood i would agree with you, because you are not capable of being wrong; anyone who disagrees is small-minded, cannot understand and has a handler!) do you understand how ridiculous you sound? my HANDLER? funny, you are not wearing your tin foil hat in the picture. aren't you afraid of... well, whatever it is you paranoid people are afraid of? please, PLEASE get back onto your meds.

g

@of-the-mountain @genessa thoroughly---and accurately---analyzed the "Harvard" webpage AND provided an example of how sources can be misrepresented. It's straight-forward due diligence and always worth the time and effort.

@DeStijl shhhh you'll wake up the demons! did you see what he CALLED me? is that not paranoid? i am not a doctor but i know [insert twilight zone theme] when i see/hear it. it's one thing to believe something untrue based on something one didn't understand or source properly. it is another to call someone a corporate shill and refer to a handler as soon as that person disagrees with one. seriously. this is madness. he is not going to listen to reason. there's no reason left there. i get no pleasure out of saying this. i'm just calling it as i see it.

g

@genessa "wake up the demons"??? Your analysis was accurate, thorough, and succinct. I have defended you here but in another thread you claimed that there is "no such thing" as toxic masculinity. I decided not to get into it with you over there.

@DeStijl, @genessa

See,
You are so upset by being outed as a corporate shill!

Always blame and defame, a Fascism way of defrauding others!

@DeStijl no that could not have been me! i don't ever say there is no such thing as toxic masculinity! i remember a thread about that in which i explicitly illustrated toxic masculinity, so i know i never even accidentally said that! surely you mistake me for someone else! can you link me? i really would never say such a thing because i know there IS toxic masculinity.

g

@of-the-mountain i don't know why i am still answering you, but i am neither upset (i am just sitting here reading and responding to posts and doing a few enjoyable things elsewhere too) nor a corporate (or any other kind of) shill, nor a corporate anything. i'm just an old fat disabled person about to go back to sleep, and your delusions won't distract me from that. have a nice life.

I'm sorry, I'm paralyzed by not caring very much.

Why?

It is over whelming how much the wealthy and their corporations are poisoning us and killing us wholesale!

There is way to much to keep up with or be able to confront it enough to do any good alone!

@of-the-mountain spreading conspiracy theories is not actually an effective way to remove money from where money doesn't belong. see my comment above; your source gets an awful lot of stuff wrong, and showing pictures of corporate ceos who sit on boards is not actually evidence, much less proof. cause and effect are so tricky. you have to believe in the effect before you go figuring out a cause.

g

@of-the-mountain "the wealthy and their corporations are poisoning us and killing us wholesale"

That actually makes much less sense than you think.

A corporation covering up when they discover they make something harmful? Yes, that happens, and depressingly often. An entire industry, or better yet, every industry deliberately making harmful things to kill their customers? That's ridiculous. Nobody wants to off their customer base. It goes against human nature to think that's happening.

@Paul4747
No you totally fail to understand what is actually going on!

It seems you are a willing corporate flunky!

They do not want to cure you or help you live a healthy lifestyle!

They can not make money if you are not sick and can afford healthy foods!

Instead they try to feed us trash that is unhealthy to just let you afford it because you are unable to afford a healthy diet!

Then push unhealthy diets and exercise that all cost you money!

It is a system based on you being sick and obese on unhealthy foods!

If you can not see this!

I truly feel sorry for you and your family!

@of-the-mountain You're absolutely right, of course. That must be why life expectancy is now at an all-time high. I was a fool not to see it.

The only rational course is to cut off all contact with modern society and go live in the wilderness somewhere: no processed food, no medicine, no machinery, no technology; most important, no phones or internet. You first.
