Some studies suggest 5G technology may increase skin temperature, alter gene expression, and promote oxidative stress, while other studies highlight potential systemic effects and environmental pollution, necessitating a precautionary approach.
The advent of 5G technology promises significant advancements in wireless communication, including faster data transfer rates and lower latency. However, there are growing concerns about the potential health risks associated with increased exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) and millimeter waves (MMW) used in 5G networks. This synthesis aims to present a cohesive overview of the potential health risks associated with 5G technology based on current research findings.

Need for Precautionary Measures
Current research indicates that 5G technology, through increased exposure to RF-EMF and MMW, may pose several health risks, including oxidative stress, cancer, reproductive, metabolic, and neurologic effects, as well as skin and ocular damage. The potential for systemic effects and environmental pollution further underscores the need for precautionary measures in the deployment of 5G networks. While more studies are needed to fully understand these risks, the existing evidence suggests that caution and further investigation are warranted.
