How to Protect Yourself From Electromagnetic Frequencies (EMFs)
As we have discussed at length in our previous blog posts on electromagnetic frequencies and 5G technology, EMFs are a significant health concern. While these damaging frequencies are ubiquitous, there are many strategies to avoid them and safeguard your health. This blog post will discuss strategies and products for protecting yourself and your loved ones.
Key Points to Consider
When making decisions through the lens of reducing EMF exposure it is important to reduce the use of EMF emitting devices, increase the distance between you and an EMF-producing source, and to favor grounded and hardwired connections over wireless.
Reduce Use
The less you use EMF emitting technology, the less your body will be exposed. This may seem simple, but scrutinizing exposures and reducing them takes effort. The greatest and least invasive thing you can do to reduce EMF exposure is to turn your WiFi off at night while you sleep.
Consider a WiFi switch on your WiFi router to turn it off while you sleep.
Take your AppleWatch, Fitbit, or other wearables off. Better yet, do not use them at all!
Ditch your microwave oven.
Keep your phone on airplane mode when you are not using it.
Do not use bluetooth in your car-turn it off to avoid EMFs.
Try to avoid smart appliances, home devices, thermostats and 5G enabled cell phones.
Increase the Distance
Whether it is your smart phone, smart meter, or high-voltage power lines, the more distance between you and the exposure will be helpful because EMFs dissipate the further away you are.
Use the speaker function on your phone and hold it further away from your body
Do not carry your phone on your body, especially not in your pocket or bra strap!
Use a faraday bag for carrying your phone
Use an EMF protection device on your cellphone, iPad, laptop, and desktop computer.
Use an anti-radiation headset
When using a laptop, use a Defender Shield to protect yourself from harmful radiation. This is particularly important in keeping reproductive organs safe.
Consider placing EMF protection strategically in around your house to protect your home environment.
If you cannot turn off your WiFi at night or are still exposed to your neighbor’s WiFi, a faraday canopy can be helpful for protecting the sleep environment.
Install a smart meter cover and try to place beds as far away from the household smart meter as possible.
Use Y-shield paint to shield EMFs from entering your environment. This can be especially helpful in bedrooms.
If you are unsure how much EMFs are in your home, work, or education environment, consider purchasing an EMF meter to gain an understanding of your exposure!
Favor Hardwired Connections
While it may feel like you’re going back in time, the reality is that hardwired connections for internet, phone lines, various cables, baby monitors, etc; will reduce the EMFs within the home.
Some product recommendations for hard-wired connections:
Use a hardwired mouse and keyboard
Use an ethernet cable to stream television
Hardwired telephones and landlines
Use ethernet cable for computers
Supplements to Protect the Body When Exposed to EMF
Magnesium
As we discussed voltage gated calcium channels (VGCCs) in depth on our blog and on YouTube, magnesium can counteract the harmful effects of calcium influx into the cells. If magnesium levels are low compared to calcium, then calcium channels are more sensitive to EMF. Additionally, most Americans are deficient in magnesium, so it can be helpful to supplement.
Zinc
Research indicated that zinc can help mitigate the negative effects of electric and magnetic radiation. It is important to note that a full spectrum of minerals are important to help mitigate stress response from EMF exposure because these resources are used up when cells are under stress.
Glutathione
EMFs contribute to the body’s oxidative stress burden. Glutathione, the body’s master antioxidant, can be helpful in combatting oxidative stress and cellular damage due to EMFs.
Curcumin & Resveratrol
Anti-inflammatories such as curcumin and resveratrol have been found to help the body deal with the inflammatory effects of EMF on the body.
Rosemary Extract
Rosemary is a potent antioxidant that helps calm the body, achieve restful sleep, and aids the whole person despite the daily electromagnetic radiation burden the body and brain are exposed to.
Binding Agents
We have specific binding agents at the clinic designed to absorb radiation exposure. Please ask one of our doctors about whether or not this would be a good supplement for you.
