Italian court rules man's tumor caused by mobile phone

ROME Italy's top court has ruled that a businessman developed a benign brain tumor because he held a cell phone to his ear for hours daily for his job and deserves worker's compensation.

• Study: No link between teen cell phones, cancer
• Mobile phone-cancer link has callers eyeing low-radiation phones
• Mobile phones may cause cancer, experts say

Innocente Marcolini, whose face is partially paralyzed, argued that using cell and portable phones six hours a day for 12 years while dealing with clients in China and elsewhere overseas caused the tumor on the trigeminal nerve in his head.

Cell phones & cancer: 8 dumb ways to boost possible risk

His lawyers presented doctors who testified that excessive cell phone use increases risk of such tumors.

The impact of the ruling earlier this week is unclear. Numerous large scientific studies have failed to find a causal link between cell phones and brain tumors. The World Health Organization classifies cell phones as "possible" carcinogens, in the same category as pesticides and coffee.

I've been a long time proponent of careful cellphone usage and feel that part of the problem with Proof is that much like the tobacco debates while the evidence is piling up, people are getting increasing more exposure,and they may even die in the process before the link is definitively proven. To protect myself I have a Shield on my phone and wear a BioElectric Shield to protect myself, and highly suggest that everyone take steps to use their cellphones safely.

I recently read a book about the dangers of exposure to electromagnetic radiation written by Claude Ledbetter. His theory is that Electromagnetic Radiation magnetizes the iron in our bodies. The following is an excerpt from the book "This Could Be YOU! "I believe that the iron molecules flowing through our bloodstream become slightly magnetized when passing through a magnetic field, causing them to become attracted to each other and to cluster slightly. Also, while in a magnetic field, they can be drawn into the capillaries and tissues more than they normally would be. The oxidizing or dissolving of this iron, caused by our ingestion of salts and acids, may over time etch, decay, dissolve, and disintegrate the surrounding tissue." If you want to read more go to his web site.

Cell phones and smart phones have more than 10 different sources that expose you to electromagnetic radiation. (copied from ClaudeLedbetter.com)
Speaker/Magnet (Magnetic Radiation from the speaker is more than 10 times higher when phone is in use at higher volumes.)
Screen (when activated)
Battery - Constantly emits Electromagnetic Radiation even when phone is off.
Antenna - Microwave radiation is emitted from mobile phone antenna (when phone is on), due to constant transmission with cell phone towers.
Cell phone towers constantly transmit microwave radiation direct to all cell phones.
WiFi (when activated)
Bluetooth (when activated)
DLNA (when activated)
Tethering (when activated)
GPS (when activated)
