as a potential hazard for hypersensitive people and pregnant women
NoATT Commentary: I had my first mercury dental filling at 13 and pretty quickly began having periodic urinary tract infections but didn’t make the connection. At 21 I had 3 more fillings and 90 days later I had a grand mal seizure. Again, nobody made the connection. Then at 29 I moved to a home that was 250 yards from an electric substation and that’s where my thyroid went into a hypo state causing lots of other health problems began accumulating. I didn’t see that adding metal to my body would make me more antenna-like. In 2005, I had them all replaced by a highly qualified dentist as you can be poisoned having this done. It’s disheartening to see the “Similar articles” below detailing the harm and yet AGAIN, our government has allowed all of this to be buried and you can’t find a lawyer that will touch the issue. It cost me over $5000 to have them replaced and I’d spent almost 40 years with health challenges all likely due to the placement of this toxic substance. THEN, they further electrify our world. AFTER I got zapped by the upgraded cell phone in Oct 2016 and had to flee to the Ozarks away from most technology I was able to see things I hadn’t seen before and made many more connections of our electrified world and the serious decline in the health of all living beings and systems. I was then able to see an explanation for the young mom who gave birth to a still born baby and she lived about 100 yards from that substation. We are accepting things into our world that are having profound adverse effects. If you haven’t seen the content of the NoMoreTowersInTheOzarks.org website, you should make that a priority and GET INVOLVED in stopping this “progress”.

Abstract
Over the past decades, the use of common sources of electromagnetic fields such as Wi-Fi routers and mobile phones has been increased enormously all over the world. There is ongoing concern that exposure to electromagnetic fields can lead to adverse health effects. It has recently been shown that even low doses of mercury are capable of causing toxicity. Therefore, efforts are initiated to phase down or eliminate the use of mercury amalgam in dental restorations. Increased release of mercury from dental amalgam restorations after exposure to electromagnetic fields such as those generated by MRI and mobile phones has been reported by our team and other researchers. We have recently shown that some of the papers which reported no increased release of mercury after MRI, may have some methodological errors. Although it was previously believed that the amount of mercury released from dental amalgam cannot be hazardous, new findings indicate that mercury, even at low doses, may cause toxicity. Based on recent epidemiological findings, it can be claimed that the safety of mercury released from dental amalgam fillings is questionable. Therefore, as some individuals tend to be hypersensitive to the toxic effects of mercury, regulatory authorities should re-assess the safety of exposure to electromagnetic fields in individuals with amalgam restorations. On the other hand, we have reported that increased mercury release after exposure to electromagnetic fields may be risky for the pregnant women. It is worth mentioning that as a strong positive correlation between maternal and cord blood mercury levels has been found in some studies, our findings regarding the effect of exposure to electromagnetic fields on the release of mercury from dental amalgam fillings lead us to this conclusion that pregnant women with dental amalgam fillings should limit their exposure to electromagnetic fields to prevent toxic effects of mercury in their fetuses. Based on these findings, as infants and children are more vulnerable to mercury exposures, and as some individuals are routinely exposed to different sources of electromagnetic fields, we possibly need a paradigm shift in evaluating the health effects of amalgam fillings.
