RF Safe published a white paper by John Coates arguing that current wireless (RF) exposure limits focus on thermal heating while ignoring “non-thermal” biological effects reported in many studies. The piece cites animal studies (U.S. National Toxicology Program and Ramazzini Institute) and links RF exposure to outcomes such as rare tumors and declining sperm counts, and it alleges regulatory capture. It promotes Li‑Fi and other “biologically compatible” connectivity as a proposed path forward.

RF Safe argues that a single biological mechanism explains widespread harm to children from modern wireless signals (cell phones, Wi‑Fi, 5G, DECT), emphasizing that these signals are “pulsed and modulated.” The post claims that “animal proof” is now high-certainty and references “WHO 2025 GRADE-rated systematic reviews,” linking EMF exposure to rare cancers in young people, declining sperm counts, and childhood autoimmune/neurodevelopmental disorders. The excerpt provided does not include citations or details sufficient to verify these claims.

This randomized controlled animal study examined chronic 35.5 GHz millimeter wave exposure in male Wistar rats (2 hours/day for 60 days) compared with control and sham groups. The exposed group showed reduced sperm count and viability along with testicular histopathological changes. Oxidative stress markers shifted toward increased lipid peroxidation and reduced antioxidant defenses, and comet assay results indicated increased DNA damage.

This narrative review discusses how environmental factors may affect male reproductive health through epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA methylation, histone modifications, chromatin remodeling, and non-coding RNA regulation. It reports that electromagnetic radiation, particularly from mobile phones and wireless devices, is linked in the reviewed literature to reduced sperm count and motility, increased oxidative stress, and chromatin damage. The authors conclude there is a substantive connection between EMF exposure and adverse male reproductive outcomes and suggest practical risk-reduction guidance.
