Electromagnetic Field

Computers, mobile phones, microwave ovens, power lines, electric trains, cars... Such instruments and devices that we use every day make our life much easier. However, they can also influence our health.

Aren't you paranoid about your health? The electromagnetic field is everywhere around us and around the Earth. We walk trough it, and they exist even if you don't feel or see them.

What is electromagnetic field?

EMF radiation connects all forms of radiation - X-Rays, ultraviolet rays, gamma radiation, radio waves, microwaves: these all have different frequency ranges, and scientists have studied the effects of all of them on living things.

"Wi-Fi radiation is 100,000 times less than that of a domestic microwave oven and the power levels for Wi-Fi are lower than that for cell phones...
There is more EMF exposure from the wiring in our homes and the electrical appliances we use than from our cell phones or Wi-Fi. No one can avoid electromagnetic radiation. It is everywhere. We are constantly exposed to it from light, commercial radio and television transmissions, police 2-way transmissions, walkie-talkies, etc.”

How electromagnetic field effect on our health?

A series of videos on YouTube appeared to show how four phones can simply cook the corn kernels, just by points the ringing phones at them. The media has been reporting for years on alleged links between cell-phone usage and brain tumors. And that is tenable, because if you just image what happen with your brain while you talk with some on the phone. It's like your brain slowly becomes a Pop-brain. And it all depend on the time spend near by EMF waves, and on frequency of the waves. Research showed several symptoms and side effects on our body from EMF waver.

The first symptoms of the electromagnetic field:

- Fatigue,

- Irritability,

- Sleep disorders,

- Impaired memory and attention.

The long-term effect of electromagnetic fields can cause:

migraine,

- Infertility (in men and in women),

- Problems with pregnancy - miscarriages,

- Lesions of the central nervous system in children,

- Brain cancer.

How to reduce the influence of electromagnetic fields?

One of the logic, funny, but in the same time not comfortable solutions on how can you protect yourself from EMF waves is to cover or roll up yourself in foil and you will look like cosmonaut. But, there would be no doubt that the waves will pass through you, it will just go around you.

Anyways, there are more options how to protect your health from the harmful effects of high frequency waves. Here are they are:

- Observe safe distances - do not stand near a working microwave oven, do not sleep at a wi-fi router, do not put your phone under you pillow while you sleep.
- Do not keep the mobile device close to you in the event that it is not in use.
- Reduce the time of talking on mobile phones. Or use headphones while talking.
- Turn off the wi-fi router when you not using the Internet.
- Do not hold the laptops on your lap.
- Correctly arrange furniture and electrical appliances in the apartment. Do not place the bed near the wall, if there is a refrigerator, computer or TV behind it.
