Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) can cause severe oxidative stress and biological damage. I discuss this in detail along with what you can do to protect yourself from them in my latest book EMF*D which is now available for preorder. >>>>> Click Here <<<<< Here to address what you can do to remediate that influence is Lloyd Burrell, who has been an advocate for EMF safety and consumer education for the last 15 years. Like so many others, Burrell's interest and subsequent expertise was the outgrowth of facing personal health challenges. He describes himself as being EMF-hypersensitive, and had to figure out how to deal with living in the modern world, surrounded by wireless technology and electrosmog. Burrell's JourneyBurrell's journey began in 2002, when he suddenly started having strange reactions to his cellphone. He tells the story:
Identifying the Cause of His ProblemsFor the next two years, he sought help from a number of different specialists. Meanwhile, the symptoms turned chronic. "Fatigue, pain all over my body and digestive problems. I really was in a bad way, and it was just getting worse," he says. The medication he was given turned him into "a zombie" and ultimately didn't help. Then one day he read a newspaper article about Brian Stein, a CEO of a big food group in the U.K. who, like himself, could not use his cellphone or computer.
Burrell started a website, ElectricSense, in December 2009, initially simply warning people about the folly of allowing young children to use and carry cellphones.
Understand, Measure, MitigateOne of the things Burrell now does is assess the value of various remediation strategies and products. For example, he offers guidance and recommendations for EMF meters, which is necessary to assess your EMF exposure. It can be a complex process, and he has created several excellent videos on this topic, explaining the different options available. "To be clear, I no longer have the debilitating symptoms, so I'm able to live a normal life," he says. Ultimately, this is the goal for anyone struggling with EMF hypersensitivity, and Burrell is proof positive that it's possible.
As explained by Burrell, there are three main categories of EMFs that we want to assess: radiofrequency (RF) radiation; magnetic fields; and electric fields, plus dirty electricity, which is a subset of electrical fields. These are all on the electromagnetic spectrum and are measured in terms of frequency and wavelength. Turn Off, Increase Distance, ShieldThe reason you want a meter (or several different types) that can measure all four of these EMFs is because you want to be able to identify the hotspots in your home and areas where you spend a lot of time. Your bedroom is of principal importance, as this is where you spend a significant portion of your life. Once you know where the hotspots are, you can figure out how to mitigate, i.e., lower the EMF level, in those areas. Keep in mind that there are no "safe" readings. Whether a reading is "too high" is rather subjective, depending on your sensitivity.
One of the easiest ways to lower the EMF level is to turn off whatever is generating the EMFs. For example, you can turn off your cellphone when not in use, especially at night when you're sleeping. Ditto for your wireless router. Ideally, hardwire your home and forgo wireless altogether. Many "smart" devices can also generate high RF radiation, and you might not realize this unless you measure it. Your dishwasher could be giving off RF radiation, or your washing machine. If you can't turn the device off, then increase the distance between yourself and the device. As a last resort, install some kind of shielding.
Do EMF-Shielding Gadgets Work?Chances are, you've seen various EMF harmonizers or gadgets, that promise to protect you against harmful EMFs. The question is, do they actually work? From my perspective, they might be dangerous because they clearly do not shield you from the radiation. They may alleviate symptoms, but they do not address the biological damage occurring. Burrell weighs in:
Thousands of Studies Show EMF HarmsOne of the sections in Burrell's book, which is available on Amazon here, discusses and dispels a variety of common myths. One of them is that EMF exposure cannot cause biological damage. This is a myth that must be dispelled, seeing how 5G is already being implemented in many areas around the world, and will dramatically increase exposures and, with it, likely unleash an avalanche of trouble.
Among the most recent studies is the National Toxicology Program study, funded by the U.S. federal government to the tune of $30 million, which found 2G and 3G wireless radiation triggered DNA damage and deadly brain and heart tumors. Note that the more dangerous present 4G and even more dangerous 5G frequencies were not tested in this study. Within months, these findings were reproduced by the Ramazzini Institute in Italy. I review the findings of both of these studies in "Cellphones Strongly Linked to Cancer — New Study Reproduces Government Findings." Defunding Research Is a Common Ploy to Hide HarmsIn an effort to delay safety regulations and keep the public in the dark, the industry will often simply strip researchers of their funding when studies turn up problems. Burrell says:
Power Versus ModulationWhile the cellphone industry spends a lot of time talking about the power, and are making their phones less powerful, Burrell points out that this isn't the main problem. The most harmful aspect of cellphone technology is the modulation, the mix of frequencies. He explains:
It's really important to understand that just because you can't feel it doesn't mean you're not being impacted. This is what the studies are telling us. Everyone is impacted by these frequencies, whether you feel it or not. In some respects, EMF hypersensitive individuals are at an advantage, as the discomfort they feel spur them to take remedial action. People who (as of yet) cannot sense EMFs never feel the need to protect themselves and are therefore at increased risk for damage. 5G ExplainedIn October 2019, SpaceX petitioned to launch another 30,000 satellites,1 which would bring its low-orbit Starlink broadband network for 5G coverage up to 42,000 satellites. The main hazard of 5G, aside from the fact that it adds another layer of frequencies onto everything we already have, is that it uses higher frequency millimeter waves (MMW). Please understand, it's not the internet that is problematic. The problem is the wireless connection. We have the capacity to increase the bandwidth and achieve the same kind of effect as 5G using fiber optic cables, but the industry wants to use wireless because they can make more money that way.
Unfortunately, unlike the tobacco industry, the wireless industry has the full support of the federal regulatory agencies. That makes it even more challenging, as the public health authorities and federal regulatory agencies promote that it's safe. It's going to take a lot to overcome global implementation of 5G. There could potentially be a lot of dead people in the streets before they start to wake up and realize how damaging this plan is for life on this planet. Remediation StrategiesThe good news is there are ways to protect yourself, and many strategies are free. They do require a bit of effort on your part, however. Again, turning devices off or increasing your distance from them are your first alternatives. As a last resort, you may need to shield, and the cost of this can vary widely.
Following are some suggestions that will help you create a healing sleep sanctuary: • Turn off your Wi-Fi router at night. • Keep (or charge) your cellphone in another room at night. At bare minimum, keep it in airplane mode, and as far away from your head as possible. During the day, minimize your cellphone use, get a low-EMF phone case and keep it in airplane mode inside a faraday bag when not in use. • Clear out any and all electric and/or wireless devices from your room, such as electric blankets, baby monitors, alarm clocks and wireless telephone bases. • Shut off the electricity to your bedroom. You can do that manually by shutting off your circuit breaker after having identified the correct one, or you can install an automated device that can do it for you. The EMF kill switch2 is one example. Burrell recommends measuring the EMF in your room after you've shut the electricity off to make sure you haven't created a higher electric field on another circuit that might impact you. Again, he recommends aiming for a benchmark of 0.02 volts per meter. If you can get lower, even better. • If you need to shield against RF radiation, you can use a Faraday canopy over your bed, or install partial-room or whole-room shielding. For example, you may find you need to shield one wall, the ceiling, or the floor. There are a number of ways to do this, including using shielding paint or fabric. But, however you do it, please be sure to shield the floor even if you are on the ground floor; otherwise you will not have a faraday cage.
