THERE IS NO conclusive evidence that exposure to electric and magnetic fields (EMF) at the levels that occur in residences can cause cancer or have adverse neurobehavioral or reproductive and developmental effects. So states a report released at the end of October, Possible Health Effects of Residential Electric and…

Integrating Maxwell–Wagner Interface Physics with the S4–Mito-Spin Framework
Independent Voices
RF Safe
Feb 3, 2026
This RF Safe article argues that biological effects from radiofrequency and pulsed electromagnetic fields can be interpreted through two complementary layers: Maxwell–Wagner interfacial polarization (as a direct electrodynamic mechanism at cell membranes) and an “S4–Mito-Spin” framework (as an upstream susceptibility…
Radiofrequency radiation from mobile phones and the risk of breast cancer: A multicenter case-control study with an additional suspected comparison group

Feb 2, 2026
A multicenter case-control study in Iran reported that self-reported prolonged mobile phone use was associated with higher odds of confirmed and suspected breast cancer status. The authors emphasize that the findings do not imply causation and note limitations including self-reported exposure and potential residual…
Why the “99% Blocked” Claim is a Myth: The Best Anti-Radiation Phone Case
Independent Voices
RF Safe
Feb 1, 2026
RF Safe argues that marketing claims such as “blocks 99% of EMF” for anti-radiation phone cases are misleading because many “lab tests” are reportedly performed on shielding fabric alone rather than on a working phone. The piece frames a phone as a “dynamic radio” and suggests real-world performance may differ from…
Exposure to hexavalent chromium and 1800 MHz electromagnetic radiation can synergistically induce intracellular DNA damage in mouse embryonic fibroblasts

RF Safe argues that Media Bias/Fact Check (MBFC) downgraded RF Safe partly by citing an FDA webpage stating typical RF exposure is not supported by current evidence as a health risk, but that the cited FDA page now redirects to a general “Cell Phones” landing page. The post claims other historically cited FDA…
