DNA Is a Fractal Antenna in Electromagnetic Fields (2011)

So the authors observed increased markers of damage after exposing DNA to a range of non ionizing EM frequencies.<p>Are the authors implying that even non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation can damage DNA because of resonance accross a wide range of frequencies? Is there truth to danger from cell phones?

This is old news. Electromagnetic waves have all kind of effects on cells. There is also a ton of very old literature out there (also, quite a bunch from China). Stuff like this and older: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov&#x2F;pubmed&#x2F;3729999" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov&#x2F;pubmed&#x2F;3729999</a><p>In fact, a former friend had some good ideas regarding this and I wrote a patent for a start-up but then he pussied out.

This idea is a plot device in Greg Bear&#x27;s &#x27;Darwin&#x27;s Radio&#x27;. Good yarn and it dates OK.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.goodreads.com&#x2F;book&#x2F;show&#x2F;64923.Darwin_s_Radio" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.goodreads.com&#x2F;book&#x2F;show&#x2F;64923.Darwin_s_Radio</a>

What’s up with light having a helical shape and dna as well?

It&#x27;s very obvious why it works like an antenna. It is unlikely that it should not

I used to have no issues at all with EMF; not that I was very healthy, but I didn&#x27;t feel any effects. Then I stopped entirely for six months while I lived in an ashram out in nowhere doing Yoga all day.<p>And sure enough, after coming back I could barely do 10 minutes with my laptop on a wireless network before feeling sick for hours. These days, I don&#x27;t even use a cell phone unless I absolutely have to; and I only use wired technology at home. Working in an office or spending a lot of time in cities is not even on the radar.<p>I don&#x27;t know whether to laugh or cry when I see people raving about their AirPods online, walking around all day with wireless antennas in your ears looks like suicide from here.<p>So; there goes the karma, I guess. I am painfully aware this is not a very popular perspective, but it&#x27;s my authentic experience and this is my Internet as much as anyone else&#x27;s.<p>Edit: See, I told you. Keep chasing your tails then, I don&#x27;t care. It&#x27;s evolution in action.
