ABSTRACT

Why do some people feel unwell during a magnetic storm? Why is there a correlation between the level of electromagnetic background and the incidence of cancer [Portier et al., 1998]? Why do so many medical centres use electromagnetic exposures to treat a wide variety of disorders in humans? People are continually immersed in electromagnetic fields both of natural and technological origin, such as those from power lines, domestic appliances, mobile phones. Human sense these fields, just as do other living beings. This fact is supported by an immense amount of scientific evidence [Bersani, 1999]. The World Health Organization now considers that enhanced electromagnetic contamination in occupational and residential areas is a stress factor for people.
