diabetes

Hi everybody,

Does anybody know of a connection between EHS and type 2 diabetes?

There is absolutely a connection. I am pasting on below a copy of a
recent posting to the blog on my Web site. I hope the links come through
live. If not, see the original blog posting of July 5 at

Blood Glucose & Dirty Electricity studies
Wednesday, July 5. 2006

    On July 1st I posted news about a New Japanese study that looks at how a
diabetic subject's blood glucose is affected by the installation/removal of
Graham/Stetzer filters, which remove bioactive high frequencies from building
electrical circuits. Find below more information about the connection between
EMF/electrical pollution and blood glucose.

Excerpt from Dirty Electricity & Electrical Hypersensitivity: Five Case
Studies(as presented at the World Health Organization, 2004):  
 
    Graham/Stetzer filters were installed in the home of an 80-year old
female with diabetes on
June 12, 2004. Her home had very high values for dirty electricity (800 GS
units on average with values above 2000 in some rooms) and these dropped
significantly to no greater than 15 GS units (Table 1). Because she was diabetic and
taking insulin, she regularly monitored her blood sugar levels.
    Before the filters were installed this subject’s fasting plasma glucose
(FPG) levels taken at 7 am each morning before breakfast ranged from 152 to
209 with a
average of 171 mg/dL (9.4 mmoles/L) (Figure 6). According to the America
Diabetes
Association a person with a fasting blood glucose level of 126 mg/dL or
higher is considered to be diabetic. A fasting blood glucose level between 100 and
125 mg/dL signals prediabetes.

    The day after filters were installed in her home, this subjects fasting
plasma glucose was 87 mg/dL (well below the diabetic range) and she did not
take her morning insulin (Figure 6).
During the first week her FPG ranged from 87 to 168 and averaged 119 mg/dL
(6.5
mmoles/L). Her average daily insulin intake (Humlin 70/30) decreased from 36
to 9 units
within the first week. The filters had no effect on her plasma glucose
measured at 5 pm.
    On
days that this subject visited shopping malls and casinos, places that are
likely to have poor power quality, her evening plasma glucose levels increased
significantly (above 250 mg/dL or 14 mmoles/L) ....
    In addition to Case #4, we have worked with individuals who have both
type 1 and type 2
diabetes and those who are pre-diabetic and have found that blood sugar
levels can change rapidly (within a matter of 20 minutes or so for some
individuals) as they move from an environment that is electrically dirty toone that is
electrically clean (and back again).

    Excerpts from Havas & Stetzer Study, as reported in Shocking News,
October 26,2004: 

"....Blood plasma glucose of diabetics increased as measures of electricity
(millivolts and microsurges) increased in the environment of patients diagnosed
with diabetes. Fasting glucose increased from 100 mg/DL to 160 mg/DL as
electricity in the environment increased from 0 to 60 millivolts (mV)."

"....reducing electrical pollution (high frequency electrical noise) by use
of microsurge filters plugged into [Refers to Stetzer filters.] wall outlets
resulted in blood glucose decreasing within minutes. Fasting blood sugar
decreased from average 171 to 119 mg/DL."

An extremely low frequency magnetic field attenuates insulin secretion from
the insulinoma cell line, RIN-m

Bioelectromagnetics
Volume 25, Issue 3 , Pages 160 - 166 


Abstract only:   
    In this study, we investigated the effects of exposure to an extremely
low frequency magnetic field (ELFMF) on hormone secretion from an islet derived
insulinoma cell line, RIN-m. We stimulated RIN-m cells to secrete insulin
under exposure to an ELFMF, using our established system for the exposure of
cultured cells to an ELFMF at 5 mT and 60 Hz, or under sham exposure conditions for
1 h and observed the effects. In the presence of a depolarizing concentration
of potassium (45 mM KCl), exposure to ELFMF significantly attenuated insulin
release from RIN-m cells, compared to sham exposed cells. Treatment with
nifedipine reduced the difference in insulin secretion between cells exposed to an
ELFMF and sham exposed cells. The expression of mRNA encoding synaptosomal
associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP-25) and synaptotagmin 1, which play a role in
exocytosis in hormone secretion and influx of calcium ions, decreased with
exposure to an ELFMF in the presence of 45 mM KCl. These results suggest that
exposure to ELFMF attenuates insulin secretion from RIN-m cells by affecting
calcium influx through calcium channels. Bioelectromagnetics 25:160-166, 2004. ©

 A short study done on Dave Stetzer, (Scroll down to study title: Blood
Glucose Levels: A Study of Correlation Factors.) showed that his blood glucose is
consistently elevated when he is exposed to "dirty" electricity.
    Dave's doctor had initially diagnosed him as being diabetic.  However, an
endocrinologist changed the diagnosis to glucose elevation due to exposure to
electrical pollution, after testing Dave.   He cannot be treated with
insulin, as dosage cannot be made to correlate with electrical pollution exposure. 
In Dave's case, his glucose level does not vary with what he eats, but only
with exposure to electrical pollution.

    It is common for people diagnosed as being diabetic to need less insulin
after installing Graham Stetzer filters in their living space.  Some no
longer need insulin at all.  One would hope that diabetes organizations would
respond to this information enthusiastically, and support related research.   This
has not been the case, however.  
    Treating lifelong symptoms with drugs is much more profitable than
finding and addressing the actual cause of symptoms.
