EM BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS:
INHIBITION OF MELATONIN

• MELATONIN PRODUCED BY PINEAL GLAND AT NIGHT       
  
  - REGULATES CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS
  - HAS ONCOSTATIC PROPERTIES (INHIBITS TUMORS)
  - USED IN CHEMOTHERAPY, PARTICULARLY AGAINST BREAST CANCER AND PROSTATE CANCER
  - CANCER PATIENTS USUALLY HAVE REDUCED LEVELS
  - REDUCED LEVELS CONTRIBUTE TO DEPRESSION, SEVERE MOOD CHANGES, PSYCHIATRIC DISORDERS
   

• PRODUCTION OF MELATONIN CONTROLLED BY AMOUNT OF LIGHT DETECTED BY RETINA
  
  - BLIND WOMEN HAVE GREATLY INCREASED LEVELS
  - BLIND WOMEN HAVE MUCH LESS BREAST CANCER
  - HIGHEST CANCER INCIDENCE IS BREAST CANCER
          - INCREASING IN INCIDENCE
          - INCREASING IN MORTALITY
   

• EMF EXPOSURE INHIBITS NIGHTTIME PRODUCTION OF MELATONIN.  SUCH SUPPRESSION OF MELATONIN IS IMPLICATED IN ETIOLOGY OF BREAST, PROSTATE, OVARIAN AND MELANOMA CANCER
