”Is There Evidence for Oxidative Stress Caused by EMFs?” by Meike Mevissen & David Schūrmann, BERENIS Newsletter, January 2021. A ”tendency becomes apparent...that EMF exposure, even in the low dose range, can lead to changes in oxidative balance." Those with diabetes & immune deficiencies may be at greater risk.”
