If you are like me, I search everyday new methods of improving and enhancing health and vitality, this may become extremely hard in the modern times that we live in. One of the many issues people fail to take into consideration for the betterment of their health comes in the form of EMF or better knows as Electromagnetic field disturbance.
What is EMF?
EMF ( Electromagnetic fields ) Electromagnetic fields are present everywhere in our present environment. The forms of Electric and magnetic fields are part of the spectrum of electromagnetic energy which extends from static electric and magnetic fields, mains power frequencies (50/60Hz) through radio frequency, infrared, and visible light to X-rays.
Who are the main Culprits?
- Home Wiring
- Power Lines
- Microwave Ovens and Radar
- Relay Stations
- Smart meters
There have been recent studies indicating that EMF may inhibit the production of your Master Antioxidant GSH(Glutathione). In a recent rat study acute exposure to EMF induces reduction in catalase and superoxide dismutase activities, whereas the combination of EMF also decreases both reduced glutathione and nitric oxide levels. Our results show that the acute exposure to EMF does not induce elevation of stress-hormone corticosterone but impairs the antioxidant.(1)
In another recent study done by the International Agency for Research on Cancer categorized extremely low frequency (ELF) (including the power frequencies of 50 and 60Hz) magnetic fields as “possibly carcinogenic to humans.” That was based on pooled analyses of epidemiological research that reported an association between exposure to low-level magnetic fields and childhood leukemia. (2)
As you can see the quotations there “possibly carcinogenic to humans.” in other words it’s quite detrimental towards human health, longevity and vitality. Think about common sense, you have electromagnetic waves hitting you brain, it does not take a rocket scientist nor a specialist to educated you on the manner of safety.
Here is yet another study confirming the negative effects of EMF, adult male rats with body restrained were exposed to a 2.45GHz EMF at a specific absorption rate (SAR) of 6W/kg or sham conditions. cDNA microarray was performed to examine the changes of gene expression involved in the biological effects of electromagnetic radiation.
Result from immunocytochemistry revealed that EMF caused intensive staining of the hippocampus, especially in the pyramidal neurons of cornu ammonis 3 (CA3) and granular cells of dentate gyrus. Our data provide direct evidence that exposure to electromagnetic fields elicits a stress response in the rat hippocampus.(3)
Recently, the British Health Protection Agency found one of the causes of neuromas (tumors deep in the ear) are cordless phones. For cordless phones users the incidence of acoustic neuromas doubles in just 10 years. (4)
The Hippocampus is you memory database, now imagine all of your life experience disappearing slowly from your mind, this is unacceptable!
There are reputable Dr’s from all spectrums that acknowledged the dangers of EMF
Dr. David Carpenter, Dean at the School of Public Health, State University of New York believes it is likely that up to 30% of all childhood cancers come from exposure to EMFs. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) warns “There is reason for concern” and advises prudent avoidance“.
Cells in the body react to EMFs as potentially harmful, just like to other environmental toxins, including heavy metals and toxic chemicals.
Martin Blank, PhD Associate Professor, Department of Physiology and Cellular Biophysics, Columbia University, states “DNA in living cells recognizes electromagnetic fields at very low levels of exposure; and produces a biochemical stress response.The scientific evidence tells us that our safety standards are inadequate, and that we must protect ourselves from exposure to EMF due to power lines, cell phones and the like, or risk the known consequences. The science is very strong and we should sit up and pay attention”
Lennart Hardell, MD, PhD Professor at University Hospital, Orebro, Sweden. World-renowned expert on cell phones, cordless phones, brain tumors, and the safety of wireless radiofrequency and microwave radiation.Co-authored the BioInitiative Report’s section on Brain Tumors by Dr. Hardell
The evidence for risks from prolonged cell phone and cordless phone use is quite strong when you look at people who have used these devices for 10 years or longer, and when they are used mainly on one side of the head. Recent studies that do not report increased risk of brain tumors and acoustic neuromas have not looked at heavy users, use over ten years or longer, and do not look at the part of the brain which would reasonably have exposure to produce a tumor.”
We can clearly see that EMF is a REAL danger in our current lives, prominent experts and experimental studies have time in and time again proven the danger of EFM. Now that you know the adverse negative effects of EMF, our next underlining question should be, how in world shall we protect ourself from this invisible danger?
I have put together this list of easy controllable methods to decrease the impact of EMF in your lives. I have seen many unrealistic approaches online that is not sustainable in our current modern and busy lives. The following are simple yet proven effective approaches to eliminate all of the unnecessary exposure.
- Cell phone: Limit use as much as possible. Do not carry in pocket or purse when at home and or office please please as far away from the person.
- Computer: Limit use don’t sit to close to close to it, make sure to shut down your computer always after use.
- Air conditioners: Eliminate the use of Air conditioners in Summer! There is many different approaches to cooling your home, on a plus side it will save you loads of money.
- Floor Electrical Heating: Learn to eliminate this nuisance in the winter time, it costs you more money and EMF poisoning why not just put on a paper of slippers win win situation.
- Electric Sockets : Anything that’s plugged into a wall socket gives off an electromagnetic field (EMF) of 50-60 hertz, even if that appliance is turned off, learn to unplug all of your appliances.
- Cordless Phones: Cordless phones are one of the main demons that transmit toxic radiation—twice as much as cell phone masts! well over 100 hertz (1 kHz) every hour of the day. This is some serious Brain numbing damage. Bottom line get a land line!
- Y-SHIELD: Easy to apply water-based paint for walls, ceilings, doors and other interior OR exterior surfaces. Very effective for blocking cell phone signals, CB, TV, AM, FM signals, radiofrequency radiation and microwaves. Tested highly effective up to 18 GHz! (5)
- Wi-fi router: Make sure to turn it off at night
I have taken my time to be very realistic and honest with the approaches above, with these simple changes in your life you will be increase your longevity and health. Take this final message into consideration I want you to go to your bedroom remove all the electronics put a sheet on your window and then tell me how you slept that night, I bet it will be on of the most rejuvenated sleeps you have had in ages, please keep me posted I would love to hear your progress.
