(NaturalNews) It is well known that many people are sensitive to electromagnetic pollution. Wi-fi gives them headaches. Being near high-voltage power lines can bring on migraines. Using a cell phone unleashes similar symptoms. Until recently, there was no medically-understood mechanism by which electromagnetic waves could be sensed by humans. But now, thanks to some fascinating science summarized here, that mystery may be closer to being solved.

Scientists from the University of Munich, led by geophysicist Michael Winklhofer, say they’ve located and identified “internal compass needles” in the noses of rainbow trout. These are called magnetosensory cells, and they turn out to be far more sensitive to magnetic fields than anyone previously thought.

As TGdaily.com reports: (http://www.tgdaily.com/general-sciences-features/64572-source-of-anim…)

The cells sense the field by means of micrometer-sized inclusions composed of magnetic crystals, probably made of magnetite. These inclusions are coupled to the cell membrane, changing the electrical potential across the membrane when the crystals realign in response to a change in the ambient magnetic field.

“This explains why low-frequency magnetic fields generated by powerlines disrupt navigation relative to the geomagnetic field and may induce other physiological effects,” said Winklhofer.

Electro-smog is getting worse by the day

While the study did not look for magnetosensory cells in humans, their identification in fish proves that biological systems can (and do!) create these highly sophisticated “instruments” which sense electromagnetic fields. As any physics student knows, electricity and magnetism are much the same thing: Rotate a coil of wire around a magnet and it produces electric current. High-voltage power lines, inversely, produce a magnetic field.

As the number of modern devices emitting electromagnetic fields continues to rise, people are becoming increasingly concerned about the cumulative effects on their mental and physical health. Some of the sources of electromagnetic pollution — sometimes called “electro-smog” — which exist right now include:

• Smart meters
• Mobile phones
• Wi-fi broadband
• Circuit breaker boxes
• Power supplies to computers and appliances
• Treadmills and exercise equipment
• Cell phone towers
• Commercial radio and TV transmissions
• Hair dryers, blenders and other high-amperage home appliances

While each device seem harmless on its own, the combined effects of them all may cross a threshold that theoretically could be sensed by humans who may also have magnetosensory cells.

Some humans also have an uncanny ability to always know which direction is North, even when lacking obvious environmental cues such as star configurations (at night) or patterns of sunlight (during the day). Is it possible that some humans possess magnetosensory cells and unknowingly use them to “feel” which way is North?

Magnetosensory cells already detected in rats

There appears to be evidence that these cells already exist in rats. A study published in Synapse in 2009 is entitled, “Magnetosensory function in rats: localization using positron emission tomography.” (http://www.emf-portal.de/viewer.php?l=eaid=16758)

It reports:

Exposure to the magnetic field stimulated cerebellar uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose compared to the sham exposure in the same animals. The activated region was located in the posterior central cerebellum. The results indicated that magnetosensory evoked potentials in rats were associated with increased glucose utilization in the cerebellum, thereby supporting earlier evidence that electromagnetic field transduction occurred in the brain.

So it’s not just fish and pigeons; it’s also rats and rabbits. This is strong evidence that magnetosensory cells are probably widely found across many species, possibly including humans. This may therefore explain why some people experience neurological disruption when in the presence of persistent electromagnetic fields.

The answer to all this? Move to the country, toss your cell phone, and get back to nature. Modern society is toxic to biology.

  1. This is hardly new information, it has been known for DECADES that insects, fish, birds, and mammals including humans possess magnets in their brains by which they navigate.

    Good freaking gravy I am tired of these stupid NN articles.

  2. “Some humans also have an uncanny ability to always know which direction is North”

    If you’ve ever gone atving in the deep woods you’d know most humans have an uncanny ability to wrongly know which direction is North 😉

    Honestly some refuse to believe compasses, even GPS. Cuz they have an “internal compass”, they know which way is North.

  3. Natural News falls for the Reverse-Anthropogenics Agenda, wherein Humans imitate animals, fish or others …

    Did they not stop to think. (I know I didn’t before I posted this – imagine the risk -sheesh), that FISH may need a Geomagnetic Compass, whereas humans are creative, draw-maps, invent metalic needled compasses to do this job of direction finding for them …

    And what about the Birds? Well about them! See, we’ve known for generations that Birds navigate by sensing the earth’s magnetic field. We didn’t conclude that therefore Dinosaurs and T-Rex had this sub-dermal technology!

    (Warning to readers and those about to conduct experiments with Crystal sets, and other hi-tech front bedroom paraphernalia:
    – Do not insert Direction Finding [DF] equipment into the orifice of any living creature, a zombie, or yourself.)

    Electromagnetic Waves are composed of both Electric (B) and Magnetic Fields (H), acting in 90° planes to each-other when part of a considered wavefront. Well it’s not really a warning, just a bit of info really, a bit like this article …

    Shallow, like me, like you, like the waters of the Earth … Ask any Fish! Advice Please

    Coming Right up: You will be, believe, but try not to be afraid of Being Seen as Different to the Animals, the Fish, the Birds, or the Charming likkle Bees, for that matter. Difference means Goodness, variation. Healthier Offspring are born to people with vastly different DNA profiles than to INBRED, HICK, MORONS from OkelyDokelyOma ..

    OK, I’m finished here. Goodnight!
