Dr. Devra Davis, Founder, Senior Fellow & President Emerita of the Environmental Health Trust, and author of “Disconnect: The Truth About Cell Phone Radiation,” reveals the health risks posed by electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from everyday devices like cell phones, earbuds, and wireless routers. Dr. Davis explains the difference between ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, emphasizing the potential DNA damage caused by non-ionizing radiation found in EMFs. She discusses the outdated safety guidelines, especially the FCC's 27-year-old standards, and the uneven regulations worldwide. The conversation also covers animal studies demonstrating EMF-related health risks, the potential misuse of meta-analysis in studies by organizations like the WHO, and the growing concerns over new technologies such as 5G. Dr. Hoffman and Dr. Davis delve into the suppression of critical information by industries and the need for safer technology practices and regulatory standards.
