Can cell phone radiation exposure cause high blood pressure?

According to latest study released at annual meeting of the American Society of Hypertension in San Francisco, cell phone radiation may cause higher systolic blood pressure. Apparently, talking over smart phone can trigger an increase in pressure readings corresponding to "serge" occurring in each heartbeat, which is a number that doctors pay most attention to as a risk of developing cardiovascular disease.

It is a well known fact that hypertension increases the risk of serious heart diseases. According to UK statistics, 350 heart attacks each day can be prevented. Hypertension is also known as "silent killer"; even small variations in readings over 24 hours during longer period of time can be significant risk factor for developing a heart attack.

This research about influence of EMFs on heart diseases was conducted at Guglielmo da Saliceto Hospital in Piacenza, Italy. It took 12 different pressure measurements at 1 minute intervals from 94 patients. While exposed to phone’s EMFs, patients manifested mild increase in blood vessels pressure during and after taking a call. American Heart Association states a healthy blood pressure for a person of 20 years old and older is 120/80. Influenced by electromagnetic fields from cellphone, it jumped to average of 129/82.

An older research from 1998, published in medical journal The Lancet, also reported on risk of high cardiovascular pressure from mobile radiation. During testing, mobile phones were attached to the right side of the patient's heads directly and used a remote control to switch it on and off. Each time phone was on, pressure level rose up. Dr. Braune and his colleagues from Freiburg Germany, where this test took place, concluded that level of increase of blood pressure and heart rate was sufficient to potentially trigger heart attack or stroke in patients who were already at high risk.

Dr. Thomas M.Rau from Paracelsius Clinic in Switzerland discovered increased cardiac symptoms in people living close to cell phone towers and therefore are exposed to higher levels of synthetic radiation.

People who already suffer from some form of heart disease are especially vulnerable to cell phone radiation. Scientific research from 2010 conducted by Dr. Magda Havas  showed some evidence that microwaves from cordless telephones may cause arrhythmia and tachycardia. Tachycardia, a heart rate that exceeds normal rates, is associated with risk of developing hypertension. 

Prolonged exposure to cell phone radiation has been associated with headaches, inability to sleep, lack of concentration, early development of Alzheimer's disease, ADHD, cancer and many other health problems. Lately, scientists conclude almost each study with recommending EMF precautionary principle. Awareness of the need for cellphone EMF protection products as a way of reducing radiation exposure grows each day. Protection against man made EMFs is especially important in vulnerable categories: children, pregnant women and people suffering from electrical hypersensitivity. Practicing cell phone radiation protection steps and combining it with EMF protection products (the ones best suitable for your own personal life style) is a simple way to decrease risk of developing diseases caused by electromagnetic field exposure
