Physicians for Safe Technology have great resources for you to read in-depth about this topic, and it is fascinating as much controversy abounds. The take-away for me is that we really don’t know conclusively how 5G technology will affect human health, but there are many questions based on what we have learned from 4G and other radio-frequencies’ impacts. There is research, for example, on the potential correlation between cellular phone use and reduced thyroid function, difficulty sleeping, and tumor growth.

So I think for all of us, minimizing cell phone use before sleep, not carrying our phone on our bodies all the time (pockets, bags), and using hands-free devices whenever possible is good practice. Additionally, we can support our defenses to many environmental toxins by adhering to a healthy lifestyle with sound nutrition, regular exercise, doing plenty of ‘unplugged’ activities, and getting restorative sleep.
