People Living Near Cell Towers at Greater Risk of Chronic Immune Stress

Living near a cell tower was associated with elevated levels of white blood cells — comparable to those seen in smokers — according to a peer-reviewed study in Electromagnetic Biology and Medicine. A chronically elevated white blood cell count is linked to inflammation and immune stress.

The study also found that using a cellphone for 4 to 6 hours a day raised people’s white blood cell count, particularly among adults under 30.

“These results indicate human biological systems are under stress from both mobile phone use and local mobile phone tower exposures, leading to potential health effects,” the authors wrote.

White blood cells are key to the body’s immune response and naturally elevate during infection or inflammation, according to the Cleveland Clinic.

But ongoing exposure to wireless radiation from cell towers and cellphones may deplete the immune system by chronically elevating the white blood cell count, according to the study authors.

“People’s everyday exposures to mobile phones and towers may be affecting their health by creating or adding to inflammatory conditions and immune system depletion,”  Julie McCredden, Ph.D., and Zothan Siama, Ph.D., the study’s corresponding authors, told The Defender.

Cellphones, cell towers and other wireless devices are all “potential sources of physical stress — not just social or emotional stress,” they said.

“Unfortunately, most doctors are not aware of the potential immune and inflammatory effects of exposure to wireless frequencies, because they are not trained in environmental health.”  (See link for article & study)

EMR Radiation From Cell Towers, Wireless Devices Linked to Diabetes Epidemic

Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) exposure from electrical power grids, cell towers and wireless devices is likely a driver of the global increase in diabetes, according to a new report by Paul Héroux, Ph.D. Studies compiled by Héroux show that very low levels of EMR can affect how cells function, including how they handle glucose.

cell tower and word "diabetes"

Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) is likely a driver of the global increase in diabetes, according to a new report by Paul Héroux, Ph.D.

The report — which includes over 280 citations — is a deep dive into the evidence suggesting that EMR exposure from electrical power grids and wireless radiation can dysregulate and raise blood sugar levels.

“Current EMR safety standards are inadequate for protecting long-term metabolic health,” Héroux told The Defender.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which sets the U.S. safety limits for wireless radiation exposure, based its limits on the assumption that wireless radiation can only cause harm at levels high enough to heat human tissue.

But the studies Héroux compiled show that very low levels of EMR can impact how cells function, including how they handle glucose.

Diabetes occurs when a person’s blood sugar levels are too high, according to the Cleveland Clinic. As of 2023, 364,000 U.S. kids and teens were diabetic, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Although more recent figures aren’t available, the CDC in 2024 reported that the number of young people with Type 1 and/or Type 2 diabetes is on the rise.

In 2023, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) issued new clinical guidelines that endorsed weight-loss drugs and weight-loss surgeries as “safe and effective” treatments for childhood obesity.

The same year, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved two drugs to treat Type 2 diabetes for children ages 10 and up.

Meanwhile, AAP hasn’t updated its parental guidance on cellphone radiation in nearly a decade, despite numerous studies in recent years highlighting the dangers of exposure in children. A link on the group’s parenting advice webpage lists telecommunications company AT&T as one of its corporate sponsors.

“It’s almost unfathomable what the link between EMR and diabetes could mean for kids’ health if we don’t change course,” said Miriam Eckenfels, director of Children’s Health Defense’s (CHD) EMR & Wireless Program.

“It’s not like there is a simple fix, like changing your diet,” she said. “Our children are being radiated 24/7, at home, in schools, on their phones and from nearby cell towers. We should really be paying attention to this.”

Doctor: Héroux’s ‘argument is difficult to ignore’

Héroux’s report appears as a chapter in the book, “The Impact of Anthropogenic Activities on the Natural Environment and Societies during the Contemporary Period,” currently available for preorder.

Héroux is an associate professor of medicine at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, and a medical scientist in McGill University Health Center’s surgery department.

He is also vice chair of the International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields, a “consortium of scientists, doctors and researchers” who study wireless radiation and make recommendations for wireless radiation exposure “based on the best peer-reviewed research publications.”

Although the report is academic, it has “down-to-earth consequences” — especially for children, who are more susceptible to the negative health impacts of wireless radiation.

The report traces research showing that EMR can suppress mitochondrial energy production in cells, increase oxidative stress and lower pH in some body fluids.

“These changes impair insulin secretion, reduce insulin binding, elevate blood glucose and promote insulin resistance,” Héroux said.

He also tracks how diabetes rates have climbed alongside the proliferation of technologies that emit EMR.

Yet the general public and “average medical audience” don’t realize EMR’s impact on metabolism, including a person’s diabetes risk, said Dr. Sharon Goldberg, an integrative and functional medicine doctor who has years of experience treating patients sickened by EMR exposure.

“His argument is difficult to ignore for anyone who takes the time to actually read what he has written,” she said.

EMR also linked to weight gain, hypertension

Beatrice Alexandra Golomb, M.D, Ph.D., a professor of medicine at the University of California, San Diego, School of Medicine, said she has “long recognized” that EMR can play a role in “not only in diabetes but in all of the metabolic syndrome factors, including weight gain and hypertension.”

However, medical training generally overlooks the impact of environmental toxins like EMR. Golomb explained:

“Much of medical education revolves around organ-based physiology and conditions for which drugs and procedures are often a prioritized approach. There is not much attention to the impact of environmental toxins or, more generally, to conditions tied to exposure-induced mitochondrial or cell energy impairment.”

Golomb leads a research group that studies conditions related to oxidative stress and cell energy impairments, including electrosensitivity — renamed EMR Syndrome in 2025.

In 2011, she posted a research paper in Nature Proceedings. The paper documented “extensive evidence” that some factors that cause oxidative stress and cell energy impairment — including EMR exposure — are driving the diabetic and metabolic syndrome epidemics.

She has since spoken with people who told her they experience serious weight gain linked to EMR exposure.

One person who had been overweight told Golomb that 80 pounds “melted away” when the person was able to relocate to a low-EMR environment, Golomb said.

News outlets are unlikely to report on such stories because the wireless industry is a big source of their advertising revenue, according to EMR researcher Camilla Rees.

Just because researchers like Héroux and Golomb publish reports doesn’t mean doctors will take the time to read them. Many doctors don’t read all the published science on EMR, Rees said.

“There is also the corporate influence on universities — and on medical associations — so the truth about environmental factors impacting people’s health can often be little known and long suppressed,” she said.

Higher EMR frequencies like 5G can still disrupt glucose levels

Some may doubt that 5G could increase a person’s diabetes risk. That’s because the pancreas — which produces insulin — is deep in the body, and 5G doesn’t penetrate beyond the skin, according to Dr. Robert Brown.

Brown is a diagnostic radiologist and the vice president of Scientific Research and Clinical Affairs for the Environmental Health Trust.

Héroux said 5G could still disturb a person’s glucose metabolism, because all body tissues — including those at the skin level — use insulin.

Also, lower frequencies of wireless radiation can directly affect the pancreas, he added.

Despite Public Cry for Proof of Safety and Efficacy, ‘Vaccine’ Apostles Create Bill to Deploy Tax-Payer Funded ‘Mobile Vaccination Units’ With No Spending Cap

In an unbelievably insane and illogical move after:

  • the CDC shrinks the childhood ‘vaccine’ schedule
  • 5 vaccines test positive for glyphosate
  • multiple independent labs reveal that the highly purified mRNA that was tested in clinical trials was not what was injected into billions of people (untested Process 2 grown in E. coli bacteria — loaded with plasmid DNA contamination, including the cancer-linked SV40 promoter)
  • the Henry Ford study showed dramatically higher rates of chronic illness in the vaccinated
  • attorney Todd Callender exposes a 1100% increase in military deaths throughout 2021 compared to 2020 & those that got 3 shots have no immune system left whatsoever
  • Medicare & Medicaid withdraw doctor payment for giving vaccines
  • a bill has been introduced to end liability for ‘vaccine’ manufacturers
Disciples of the ‘vaccine’ religion are not even stopping to pause and think, but are doubling down in what only can be from cognitive dissonance.

Instead of reflection they have created a frightening bill (see article below) that would apply to the entire population authorizing open-ended federal spending, and opening the door for a mobile vaccine system to become a permanent fixture in the U.S.  

Reminiscent of a shark feeding frenzy, the federal government is expanding investment ($5.5 BILLION) in influenza pandemic preparedness, vaxx distribution, and public health delivery systems.

Call your legislators and let them know you are not in favor of runaway spending that toys with human health. 

In case you are unaware:

  • no placebo controlled long-term vaccine trial has ever been done
  • most vaccines are a literal stew of ingredients which contain pieces of cellular and DNA debris from aborted fetal cells, aluminum, other forms of human DNA, green monkey cells, neomycin, polysorbate, sodium chloride, contaminants, tumorigenic cells (cancer causing), retroviruses, graphene, and a whole host of dangerous substances in them  Source
  • many doctors have been warning us for decades that vaccines are  unsafe and ineffective and often cause the very diseases they are supposed to protect us from
  • Dr. Paul Thomas states the following unseen and unacknowledged costs of vaccination:
    • A 400% greater chance of your child suffering a chronic condition before the age of 18, and is ten times more likely to suffer a chronic condition as an adult
    • A 48% chance of getting heart disease
    • 208 times greater chance of suffering from chronic sinusitis
    • 45 times greater chance of suffering digestive disorders
    • 20 times greater chance of developing ADHD
    • 17 times greater chance of suffering from epilepsy
    • 12 times greater chance of developing autism
    • 11 times greater chance of developing learning disabilities
    • 10.5 times greater chance of getting asthma
    • 9.6 times greater chance of developing speech disorders
    • 7 times greater chance of getting eczema
    • 6 times greater chance of developing a food allergy
    • 5.6 times greater chance of having developmental disabilities
    • A 16.67% chance of getting arthritis in later life
    • A 10% chance of getting diabetes

Bill to Deploy Federally Funded ‘Mobile Vaccination Units’ With No Spending Cap Introduced by Rep. Gottheimer—Again Centered on Influenza

Legislation authorizes federal purchase of vaccine vehicles, equipment, and doses to expand nationwide delivery infrastructure.
Jon Fleetwood
Feb 20, 2026

Congress has introduced legislation authorizing the federal government to finance and deploy mobile vaccination units across the United States, creating a taxpayer-funded system designed to deliver vaccines directly into communities nationwide.

The bill, H.R. 7465, titled the “Federal Investment in Grants for Health Transportation and Flu-vaccination Local Units Act of 2026,” was introduced February 10, 2026 by Representatives Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) and Jennifer Kiggans (R-VA).  (See link for article)

‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Star Dead From ALS (Did He Have Mycoplasma or Lyme Disease?)

https://apnews.com/article/eric-dane-dead

Eric Dane, ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ star and ALS awareness advocate, dies at 53

Eric Dane, the actor known for “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Euphoria,” has died at 53 from ALS. He’d become an advocate for awareness of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, known also as Lou Gehrig’s disease, after announcing his diagnosis in April 2025. (Feb 19)

By  MARIA SHERMAN
Updated 10:12 PM CST, February 19, 2026

Eric Dane, the celebrated actor best known for his roles on “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Euphoria” and who later in life became an advocate for ALS awareness, died Thursday. He was 53.

His representatives said Dane died from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, known also as Lou Gehrig’s disease, less than a year after he announced his diagnosis.

“He spent his final days surrounded by dear friends, his devoted wife, and his two beautiful daughters, Billie and Georgia, who were the center of his world,” said a statement that requested privacy for his family. “Throughout his journey with ALS, Eric became a passionate advocate for awareness and research, determined to make a difference for others facing the same fight. He will be deeply missed, and lovingly remembered always. Eric adored his fans and is forever grateful for the outpouring of love and support he’s received.”

Action Alert: Support Real GRAS Reform

Alliance for Natural Health

Earlier this year, FDA Commissioner Marty Makary touted “GRAS reform” among his first 100 day accomplishments, saying the agency is “exploring rulemaking” to “stop industry’s long-standing practice of introducing ingredients into the food supply without FDA knowledge or oversight.” The practice Commissioner Makary is referring to is known as self-affirmed GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) or self-GRAS.

THE TOPLINE

  • Proposed changes to the FDA’s GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) rules—backed by RFK Jr.’s push to clean up junk and ultra-processed foods—could create a sweeping pre-approval system that threatens access to thousands of safe, natural supplement ingredients.
  • While reform is needed to curb harmful additives, past FDA decisions show the agency has approved questionable synthetic ingredients—raising concerns that new authority could unfairly target natural products instead.
  • This is a pivotal moment for health freedom: without public pushback, regulatory overreach could restrict supplement access under the guise of food safety reform.

It’s true that the GRAS system is deeply flawed. It’s also true that many, if not all, of the problematic ingredients in the food supply that are often cited by critics as evidence of the need for GRAS reform were explicitly approved by the FDA—not snuck in by industry under self-GRAS. The solution isn’t to eliminate the self-affirmed GRAS pathway. It’s to bring it into the light, as we argued in our white paper released in April of this year that outlined a rational approach to reforming GRAS without erecting unnecessary regulatory hurdles for ingredients that have a well-established safety record.

Help us restore integrity to the entire system that governs what we eat. Write to Congress and the FDA calling for rational reforms to the GRAS process without eliminating the self-GRAS pathway.

The Hidden Truth About Tick-Borne Illnesses

Dr Stephen Wangen
September 9, 2025

Today I want to talk with you about something that is often misunderstood and more common than most people realize: tick-borne illnesses.

When most people hear about tick-borne diseases, the first thing that comes to mind is Lyme disease—and usually only in the context of the northeastern United States. Maybe you’ve even heard about the “classic bullseye rash” that’s supposed to make Lyme easy to recognize. But the truth is much more complex—and more concerning.

Tick-Borne Illnesses Are Everywhere

One of the biggest misconceptions is that tick-borne diseases are only a problem in New England or a handful of rural areas. The reality is: ticks are found in every state in the U.S. They thrive in woodlands, grassy fields, parks, and even suburban backyards.

As our climate changes and animal populations shift, ticks are spreading into areas where they weren’t as common before. That means people all across the country—from the Pacific Northwest, to the Midwest, to the Southeast, and yes, the Southwest—are at risk of exposure.

More Than Just Lyme Disease

Yes, Lyme disease is the most well-known tick-borne illness. But ticks can and do carry and transmit many other infections, including:

• Babesiosis

• Anaplasmosis

• Ehrlichiosis

• Rocky Mountain spotted fever

• Bartonella

• And other infections

Each of these can cause significant health problems, and in many cases, people may not even realize that a tick bite was the original cause of their symptoms.

The Bullseye Rash Myth

Let’s talk about the rash. We’ve all heard about the “classic bullseye” rash that’s associated with Lyme disease. But here’s what most people don’t know:

• The majority of patients never develop a bullseye rash.

• Some might get a rash that looks nothing like the pictures online.

• Others may not have any noticeable skin reaction at all.

That means you can still have a tick-borne illness even if you’ve never seen a rash.  (See link for article)
