Wi-Fi radiation can have devastating consequences on testosterone and sperm health, as multiple studies have demonstrated.
(š§µ1/7)
For example, here's one study examining the impact of just 2 hours of Wi-Fi radiation exposure.
The parameters were matched to meet most modern WiFi standards.
ā 2.45-GHz (frequency)
ā 64.776 mW (power output)
ā 0.029812 mW/cm² (power density)
ā 0.018 W/Kg (specific absorption rate, or how much radiation tissues actually absorb)
Keep in mind that both your Wi-Fi router AND your phone put out this type of radiation within these parameters.

Wi-Fi at just 2 hours a day ripped apart the structure of the seminiferous tubules, the main functional unit of the testicles.
The diameter of these tubules was smaller and the Leydig cells, which produce testosterone, were also degenerated.

Wi-Fi also worsened sperm health.
Both sperm count and viability were reduced with exposure.
Previous studies showed that they could cause DNA damage in these cells, and even hypothesized that putting a laptop on your lap could directly cause this.

Wi-Fi was able to do this by inducing oxidative and nitrosative stress.
Essentially, it causes the production of small but highly reactive molecules made of oxygen and nitrogen.
These can cause damage to tissues and alter hormonal / signaling functions.

Strikingly, testosterone was a THIRD of control values when exposed to Wi-Fi.
2 hours a day, all parameters similar to what you and I get exposed to just by using our phones.

A recent systematic review of the literature included 19 studies corroborated these findings, concluding that "limiting the use of wireless devices is recommended."
It is true that most of these are animal studies, but as we've discussed, the exposure parameters match (or even underestimate) exposures in humans.
There won't be any human trials on this, ever, I can almost guarantee you that.
The human studies on exposure we do have are very limited, mainly because we're all getting blasted with Wi-Fi all the time.
Iron can actually SHORTEN your lifespan and age you on a cellular level.
(š§µ1/10)
This study was published in 2024, investigating the effects of iron chelation on age related parameters.
They used a common aging animal model - a Klotho knockout animal.
Animals are known to have shorter lifespans without this gene, and longer lifespans with more of it.
They gave them a drug called deferiprone, which binds up free iron and gets rid of it.
What exactly does klotho do?
Well it's main function is a co-receptor for FGF proteins, which govern various metabolic functions (fat burning, glucose uptake, etc.) as well as vitamin D synthesis.
But it also shows a number of other anti-aging effects:
N-acetylcysteine (NAC) was shown to reverse brain damage from aluminum in a critical study.
(š§µ1/8)
Animals were put into 6 groups - either getting aluminum or NAC or both.
The aluminum was administered as aluminum chloride, and it was done so orally.
This is important because roughly only 0.5% of oral aluminum chloride is absorbed, so the real effective doses the animals received were far less than than the 100 mg / kg.
This is still a high dose, but aluminum is known to accumulate in tissues.
Animals had severely impaired memory performance with the aluminum, but this was improved with NAC.
The morris water test trains rats to find a hidden platform in pool.
The latencies (times) is how long it takes to find it on a given day.
Less time = better memory.
As you can see, the high dose NAC almost completely reversed the memory impairment from aluminum.
