Eric Davis, BDSc, DAc, DCN how we use these devices.
William Campbell Douglass, MD
Sara Bachman Ducey, MS, CNS “Smart” meters to read household electricity, gas and water use are

Mike Fitzpatrick, PhD on the public surreptitiously, with little or no study of their effects. Some
Ruth Ann Foster, MA
Donna Gates, BS, Med individuals have extreme reactions to these devices, and who knows
Nicholas Gonzalez, MD what sub-clinical effects there may be?
Joann S. Grohman
Beatrice Trum Hunter, MA Our philosophy is never to describe a problem without offering
Mark A. Kastel advice for solving it, and there are plenty of suggestions in this issue
Fred Kummerow, PhD
Felix Liao, DDS for minimizing exposure and protecting yourself through a good diet.

Kilmer McCully, AB, MD, MA (hon) And when it comes to “smart” meters, just putting up strong resistance
Judith McGeary, Esq. to their installation may be effective. When PEPCO informed us that a

Kenneth Fielding Morehead, DOM “smart” meter was to go on the house that WAPF rents for office space
David Morris, BS, DC in Washington, DC, we had our attorneys send a very strong letter
Jill Nienhiser
Sylvia Onusic, PhD, CNS, LDN forbidding them to install one. To this date, PEPCO has not attempted
Kathryne Pirtle, BS, MA
Jessica Prentice to install a “smart” meter at our office, even though DC regulations do
Bruce Rind, MD not permit an opt-out.
Sir Julian Rose, BT
Julia Ross, MA Another focus of this issue is the upcoming review of the USDA
Beverly Rubik, BS, PhD Dietary Guidelines for Americans. This disastrous policy has caused
Adrienne Samuels, PhD
Ron Schmid, ND untold suffering and chronic disease in this nation, especially in our

Stephanie Seneff, BS, MS, EE, PhD children. They are applied in schools, daycare centers and the WIC
C. Edgar Sheaffer, VMD program. We are pleased to present the excellent analysis by Adele Hite
Ted Spence, DDS, ND
Alana Sugar, CN and Kimberly Hartke in this issue, and plan to follow up with a press
Beverly B. Teter, PhD, FACN, CNS release and publicity campaign.
