With regard to magnetic fields and EM fields and their effect on health,
I recommend you check out this truly excellent page;

It uses this analogy to show the preponderance of magnetism throughout
nature, we can't escape it and remain alive and healthy, nor can we
abuse its natural low level intensity without suffering negative
effects.
"Here you enter the coils of the Dragon. Here my power was born. Here
all things are possible and all things meet their opposite.
"I have awakened the Dragon. Can't you see all around you the Dragon's
breath? A beast of such power that if you were to see it whole and all
complete in a single glance, it would burn you to cinders. The Dragon is
everywhere.
"The Dragon is everything. Its scales glisten in the bark of trees. Its
roar is heard in the wind. And its forked tongue strikes like lightning.
"Do nothing. Be still. Sleep. Rest in the arms of the Dragon. Dream."
-- Merlin, the magician, in Excalibur, the Legend of King Arthur
In 1974 Dr. Nancy Wertheimer began a study which would link powerline
magnetism to child leukemia. After a decade of denial, by 1984 a vast
body of research showed man-made magnetism adversely affects delicate
biological processes: bone growth, cell communication, biocycles, white
blood cells, neurochemistry, genetic replication, and immune system.
Evidence implied our artificial EM is assaulting us on all fronts.
The slow yearly rise of cancer may result from our sudden increase in EM
exposure in the last 50 years. Our technological society runs on EM, so
there's no outlet to escape its influence. Dr. Robert Becker insists,
"Our unwise use of EM produced unprecedented environmental changes.
Today we swim in a sea of almost totally man-made energy. Evidence is
clear EM's unrestricted use creates environments hazardous to life and
results in significant abnormal physiology and function."
EM pollution is one of the 1990s most alarming issues. Says Becker,
"Clearly we face a major crisis -- all the more critical because it's
not recognized by agencies responsible to deal with it." This is because
scientists, regulators and M.D.'s are stuck in an old chemical -
mechanistic paradigm that's crumbling, to be replaced with one of life
energy; something old is new again.
