New Study Confirms Safety of 5G Technology
The introduction of 5G technology has sparked numerous conspiracy theories and myths regarding its potential health risks. However, recent studies by researchers refute these claims.
New scientific findings indicate that 5G frequencies do not cause any harmful changes in human skin cells.
This is supported by research published in PNAS Nexus, as reported by Popular Science.
Cellular networks operate within specific frequency ranges, with 5G functioning at 6 gigahertz, and the range expected to expand to 27.5 and 43.3 gigahertz soon.
While strong electromagnetic fields can potentially cause physiological damage, 5G frequencies can only penetrate skin to a depth of a few millimeters.
Researchers from the Constructor University in Germany conducted an experiment to assess the impact of such cellular technology on human health.
In this study, they exposed skin cells to 5G frequencies as well as much stronger electromagnetic fields.
The research team focused on fibroblasts and keratinocytes, which form connective tissue and the majority of the epidermis.
During a series of tests, the cells were subjected to varying intensity frequencies for two and 48 hours.
Subsequent analysis of the genetic and epigenetic effects revealed that even at ten times the recommended limits, the frequencies caused no changes. The authors note that these findings somewhat contradict previous work, as earlier studies did not control temperature, which may have influenced the results.
"[Our results] are consistent with biophysical facts: at such frequencies, quantum energy is too low to cause photochemical or ionizing effects", the researchers stated.
The authors of the study hope that their findings will conclusively end the discussion regarding the supposed dangers of 5G.
