You are exposed to EMFs all day long, not only in public but inside your home too. Radiation is emitted from electronics such as mobile phones, cell towers, computers, smart meters and Wi-Fi just to name a few things.
What are EMFs
EMFs are invisible energy, such as radiation, that are
associated with the use of electrical power. Your mobile phones, baby monitors,
Bluetooth devices, cordless phones, smart meters and Wi-Fi routers all emit EMFs
in microwave doses. The microwave radiation that they emit are at levels that
may damage your mitochondria in your cells of your body. Studies have shown
that double and single strand DNA breaks are actually higher when exposed to
non-ionizing microwave radiation than ionizing radiation. This means that these
emf’s are affection the very cells that make up your body in a very bad way. The
reason for this is because of the excessive oxidative stress that microwave
exposure induces.
How EMFs effect your health
Negative health effects from EMFs are not usually immediately
noticeable, as they develop gradually over time. Studies indicate your
intracellular calcium increases with exposure to EMFs. This in turn increases
nitric oxide and increases your free radicals which increases inflammation and
makes your body super toxic. You can block or greatly reduce the effects of
EMFs using calcium channel blockers but this is with medications commonly
prescribed to patients with heart disease. Notably, it is the excess calcium in
the cell and increased calcium signalling that are responsible for a vast
majority of the biological effects of EMFs. when there’s excess calcium in the
cell, it increases levels of both nitric oxide and superoxide. While Nitric Oxide
has many beneficial health effects, excessive amounts of it react with
superoxide, forming peroxynitrite, which is an extremely potent oxidant
stressor. Peroxynitrites, break down to form reactive free radicals, both
reactive nitrogen species and reactive oxygen species, including hydroxyl
radicals, carbonate radicals and NO2 radicals, all three of which do damage to
your body. Peroxynitrites also do damage. EMF radiation activates the VGCCs in
the outer cell membrane, triggering a chain reaction of devastating events that
causes severe cellular damage, DNA breaks, it dramatically accelerates your
ageing process and puts you at higher risk for chronic disease.
They affect your whole body
EMFs can cause health problems with your brain, nervous
system, retina, your testes if you are male, and can cause heart arrhythmia. If
your brain is subjected to chronic EMF exposure it can cause Alzheimer’s, anxiety,
and autism, which results in children from too excessive EMF exposure during
pregnancy so it is important to not overuse your phones or other devices if you
are pregnant. Also to take your children off these devices or time how long per
day they can spend on them. Also, this can cause depression.
Watch your heart
EMFs may cause problems with your heart, especially if
you are taking heart medication. The most common heart issues that have been
linked to EMF exposure include atrial fibrillation / atrial flutter, bradycardia
which is a slow heartbeat, cardiac arrhythmia, heart palpitations and tachycardia
which is a fast heartbeat.
EMFs can also affect reproduction in men, EMF exposure
can increase your risk of infertility, especially if you routinely carry your
mobile phone in a pants pocket near your groin or use your laptop on your lap.
If you are a woman, your risk of breast cancer is higher if you regularly carry
your mobile phone in your bra. Generally, the most common location for breast
cancer is the upper, outer quadrant.
The good news
The good news is that there are many remedies now days for
EMF exposure. Everything from protective wall paint to devices that plug in and
alleviate the emf affect on your body. There are insoles for your shoes,
devices to plug into your car and pendants to wear round your neck. There are
also grounding pads and special mattresses and the list goes on. This clinic
can help you with some of these devices and to introduce you to the devices
correct for you. Alternatively, we can put you in touch with people who can do
an inspection of your home. Give us a call or email to see how we can assist if
you feel your physical health symptoms are inexplicable and want to find out
why you just plain don’t feel well despite all the tests coming up zero.
