EMFs What Are They & What Do They Do?
In our technology-driven world, electromagnetic fields (EMF) are everywhere—from cell phones to WiFi routers. While the debate on the health impacts of EMF continues, taking proactive measures to minimize exposure can contribute to long-term wellbeing. Here are practical, actionable steps you can take to reduce EMF exposure in your daily life.
Understanding EMF Exposure
Before delving into reduction strategies, it’s important to understand where EMF exposure comes from. Common sources include:
- Mobile phones and tablets
- WiFi routers and modems
- Household appliances like microwaves and hair dryers
- High-voltage power lines
Reducing exposure involves both limiting the time spent near these sources and increasing physical distance from them when they are in use. Our most important tip is to make your sleep space as safe a possible, this means limit all electrical devices in your bedrooms. Leave the TV in the living/family room, keep computers, phones and tablets in other rooms while sleeping, have fewer lamps and try avoid spring mattresses as these can amplify EMF.
