EMF’s are they really affecting us that much??

Happy Monday Everyone.  I wanted to first say that you for all being patient the past week as I have been recovering from a nasty virus!  I’m not one to get sick much anymore, but I will say that there are some nasty things going around!  One reason I believe is the topic we are talking about today!

You’ve heard me talk about EMF’s before or electro magnetic frequencies. As with some health topics it can go over someone’s head, or they don’t “experience” per say immediate symptoms and so after reading it, don’t think much of it.

As you know, being a brain expert, causes me to dive deep into health topics, ones that aren’t always so glamorous but one’s that need to be addressed.

We actually get natural EMF’s from the sunlight. It wasn’t until electricity was discovered that manmade EMF’s came into play and everyone of us is exposed to manmade EMF’s every day. Many man-made EMFs  include radio waves, WiFi signals, and microwave radiation. In addition, visible lights, UV lights, and infrared radiation are also a form of EMFs.

There are two types of EMF one is low frequency the other high.

Low frequency includes non ionizing radiation such as from microwaves, computers, visible light, smart meters, wifi, cell phones, blue tooth, power lines and MRIs.
High frequency has ionizing radiation as consist of ultraviolet light, x-rays and gamma rays. WE know that too much high frequency is extremely harmful, however the topic of low frequency is more controversial.

Usually the symptoms are gradual overtime, and are not an immediate response. Secondly, there’s a lot of financial interests in people who buy these electronics to never know those potential dangers.
Did you know for instance that in your iPhone settings it tells you about SAR and options to decrease your exposure, but not having the phone on your body?  How many have been told of this?!  Not very many.

We know that our body is electric.  Our nervous system firing for instance is electricity.  Putting an outside electrical force on top of ours will of course have some type of outcome.  Also our mitochondria and liver enzymes run on electrical input and light.  Currently, the claims that the low frequency EMF exposure is safe are based on the fact that there is no direct evidence showing that certain sources of EMF exposure are safe (or unsafe). The International Agency for Research on Cancer has already categorized low frequency EMF radiation a class 2B possible carcinogen. However, harmful effects of EMF radiation are not limited to cancer.

With the acceptance of 5G, things have only gotten worse.  Why? Because this signal is stronger.  WE already have good studies showing the harm of 3 and 4G, but because the US always wants to be on the forefront without health implications first, 5G has passed.

Whether a certain EMF is dangerous depends on a few different aspects of the electromagnetic waves, including:

Frequency: The higher frequency an EMF is, the more energy it carries and the more likely it is to be dangerous. 5G.
Power density: The average energy of the electromagnetic waves in a given area or volume.
Strength: of the electric and magnetic fields that are present
Duration of exposure: prolonged duration is usually worse than acute duration for the same levels of EMF.

“An infamous case of such denial was when utility companies started installing smart meters in people’s homes. While the companies claim that smart meters are safe, numerous people started to experience neurological problems and, in some cases, worsened inflammatory symptoms as soon as the smart meters were installed (source). These consumers had to immediately move to a new home with no smart meters or fight to have the smart meter uninstalled in their home.

Many parents in Ontario are observing that their children are becoming ill after schools started to install WiFi (source). Children are particularly susceptible to harm from EMF radiation because they have smaller and growing bodies, so symptoms can be more apparent.”Electro magnetic frequencies(EMF) and their danger are not a “new” discovery. In 2012, a group of over 200 international scientists published a report to alert the public and major world organizations like the UN and WHO about the dangers of EMF’s.  This report called the Bioinitiative report, cited over 1000 studies showing low level expose to this specific radio frequency radiation and relation to dozens of biases and actual biological harm to the body.

These symptoms include:

  • Fatigue
  • Headaches
  • Mood swings
  • Heart arrhythmia
  • Asthma
  • Fertility issues
  • Digestive issues
  • Memory problems
  • Sleep issues
  • Cancer- see below
  • Heart problems
  • Alzheimers
  • Diabetes

Children in particular are NEVER to be around cellphones and ipads.  The so called “safety” regulations are for a 200lb adult male with the device 10 feet away.  No safety has been done with children, yet we see a lot of children and teens using these devices.
Emf’s also open the blood brain barrier, which can make infections go rampant.
I’m extremely sensitive to EMF’s and even with the protectors I use, still need to take precautions.

Here are some tips:

  • • Have a Wireless Router? Use a Christmas light timer to automatically turn it off at night, or there’s ones on the market called Intermatic which I have.   Believe it or not, your body is even more more vulnerable to the damage RF and EMF radiation cause while you’re sleeping.
  • Does your home have a Smart Meter tracking your utility usage? These produce an enormous amount of EMF radiation, contact your utility company and ask about installing a safer analog meter.
  • Turn your cell phone off at night. If you use your phone as your alarm clock, be sure to put it in airplane mode to limit the amount of radiation it produces.
  • When using your cell phone, put it on speaker phone or use a pair of headphones. Even better, use a pair of airtube headphones my favorite is
  • Whenever possible, use an ethernet cable to your laptop or desktop computer instead of WiFi.
  • Create a bedroom free from EMF Radiation to improve sleep and protect your body.
  • Don’t keep your cell phone in your pocket, the radiation in close proximity to your body can cause some very unwanted health effects.
  • Have a baby in the home? Consider using a wired baby monitor instead of the popular wireless versions or video monitors.
  • Whenever possible, replace wireless with wired. From phones in to home, to computers, wired is almost always going to be a reduction in radiation.
  • Get EMF protectors.  Although not perfect, any help to decrease exposure is needed!  A mineral called shungite is very helpful for helping decrease the effects of EMFs, but some other companies I like are rayonex from Germany and defender shield. You should have protection in your home and on every device you own.

I hope this was helpful to you this week.  Although we love technology, I see quite a few in my practice that are extremely sensitive to these frequencies.  In san diego we like near military base too where the frequency is even higher.  Getting out in nature and detaching from these devices is our best bet.  It’s not doing away with technology but using it safer.

How 5G is affecting our brains!! Protect your Family!

Happy Monday Tribe!
I hope you all got the chance to read last week’s blog on how exercise impacts your memory!

This week we will be diving into a super important topic, as you know being a healthcare disruptor it is always my duty to reveal the corruption and truth. 
WE live in TECH world.  It’s inescapable (unless your a mountainman).  Technology is a wonderful thing and also harmful if used incorrectly.  It brings us closer together, allows for innovation, and makes our lives easier.  But the health implications are ever growing and NOT being told to the public. 

I watched a seminar series this weekend about 5G, and an amazing scientist started spurting out research about the harms of EMF (electro magnetic frequencies).  We know that EMF’s which are emitted from cell phones, computers, WIFI, smart meters, bluetooth, airport scanners, microwaves, electrical wiring, dimming switches,  ect. are harmful to us. 

Children in particular are at THE MOST risk for damage.  That is why pregnant women, babies and children should never be around cell phones, i pads, ect.  Always on airplane mode.  These frequencies actually damage DNA and for children this is detrimental to their growth and development. According to research, children under 16 should NOT be allowed to use cell phones. However, the billions of users today are young and small and have NO idea how to protect themselves from microwave radiation.

Here’s the skinny (411):

How do we know that wireless radiation is unsafe?
We have studies in humans and animals.  Unfortunately with this technology, we’ve introduced the technology, and THEN after asked the question is it safe.  NO testing was done prior.

Old tests were done on the “thermal” (heat) effects of radiation. Which was based on super old science, using a 6 foot tall something male and over 220 pounds at 20 cm away.  They still go by this, although EMF’s have been linked to biological harm through peer review studies. The array of phenomena seems to be only limited to whether or not we’ve studied it.  Every time they’ve look for an effect, it’s been there.  Bees, trees, flowers.

  • In 2000, the British government had a top community of scientists that stated that no one should use a cell phone under the age of 16, because of a young thin skull.  The US ignored that research and decided in 1996, no research was needed in this area.
The problem is:
It’s not the power of the radiation, but the pulse.  A cell phone signal is complex, it has a frequency and power.  Even though it can been weak in power, abnormal pulse radiation over thousands a minutes has an effect.
  • The brain cells of rats when exposed to weak pulse of cell phones had damage to their DNA. This research after found was then hidden, and the government went to town to make sure that the public would not know about it. You can read the book “Disconnect” for more info.
  • Now we have results from the national toxicology program, studies not just showing DNA damage, but the largest study ever done (30 Milllion dollars) with the technology of the highest caliber, found clear evidence of rare tumors of the nerve inside the heart and glioma (brain cancer).  Also salivary gland tumors and thyroid.
NOTE****Lebron James had a salivary gland tumor on the side where he used his phone all the time.  He got a big sponsorship deal with samsung, and he hasn’t admitted any problem with EMF radiation.  I don’t think that he’s aware of the connection.

  • Human studies have shown the same rare cancers. Acoustic neuroma (near the ear, HELLO cell phones).  This study was subject to a triple peer review (never been done before).  They were astonished when they got the results that showed clear evidence of cancer, and multiple cancers of different organs, some damage to the heart.  The heart is quite close to the surface of the skin.  That normally would be a slam dunk in science, but the national toxicology program is supposed to tell the FDA what to do about it.  They didn’t like the results, so they said it wasn’t “relevant”.  The CDC asks the industry to write their website, and many of the FCC work for Verizon for the cell phone telecommunication industry and regularly have moved back forth between the industry and agency.  It is NOT a protector of health and safety.
——————————————————————-

Let’s talk about chronic diseases:

-Neurological, autoimmune, autism are all increasing at a huge rate.  What does science tell us that wireless plays in this?

Chronic illness has multiple causes, nutrition ect.  Our life is increasingly electrified.  The role of EMF’s for autism, autoimmune, thyroid or chronic pain cannot be fully evaluated because nobody is asking the question. If you get rid of toxins, you give children a chance to grow and develop. EMF’s are included as a toxin.  But often at risk kids are given devices to help “calm” them down, when in reality it’s harming their future.

Overview of studies of 5G:

1. Standford- 5g consists of a combination of 3g and 4g in order for it to work.  So you have to have a series of antennae within a few yards apart.  The modulation of the signal is what we are most worried about .  It’s moving extremely fast, and alters the function of our nerves and cells. It interferes with the way calcium moves in and out of the cell wall.
The mm waves are absorbed in the skin, but it turns out the sweat ducts are located there, and they can work as an antennae, and can transmit exposure from the skin internally!  It can accelerate the growth of bacteria by suppressing good things to thrive, because the cells don’t communicate as well with one another. 

2.  People who live within 30 mm of a 3g antenna, in the blood of those closest showed elevated evidence of damage in DNA in the micronucleus.  Precursor to cancer!

3. More than a thousand different insects are also compromised.  5g wave interferes with cryptochrome in insects (inborn GPS).  Allows them to navigate.  Low intensity mm waves can cause the cryptochrome to create free radicals.

4. Another study showing what happens to microbes in soil in india.  Microbes in soil are critical to agriculture.  They showed that the microbes with the towers around were damaged as well.  Also people living closer to antenna have biochemical measures in their blood which predict more likely to get cancer (evidence of damage), than in others that live further way.

These mm waves weakens membranes.  And this means any toxic exposure can be more deeply taken into the body as a results of the EMF.

What are we doing to our children with this exposure?
We know that insects show changes in their behavior over time with exposure, so it makes sense the effect of us.

Singapore is NOT introducing it at all.  In order to work well, they need several dozen antennas on the phone. You don’t need 5G for voice calls, its so that the refrigerator can talk to your phone ( or things of this matter).  Recognize what we have is that we think that since technology can do something we want to try it.  Although there’s things we SHOULD not do.

Many other countries KNOW the harms and won’t allow this.  Chinese cities are the most dense in the world.  How do they get their signals?  They are WIRED!  The priority for those countries is for military and medical research purposes for technology.

In the 1950s and 1960s the tobacco industry had to see so many people die and have harmful effects in order to prove its harm.  Do we need to show now that children who use devices have more harmful effects to get the public to wake up?!  It seems as if it’s going that way.
It’s not that technology is evil.  We need to teach them about wired connections.
Wired is actually faster, and MORE secure.

At schools, children do not LEARN well if they are on a computer all day long.  More and more silicon valley people are sending their children to schools without computers, because they know this.  More and more parents are understanding to limit their use.
Don’t feel guilty!  We just want safer usage, and education about what technology can do and what it’s not allowed to use.

Let me state this :
WE ARE ELECTRICAL BEING!  Our heart beating, nervous system firing.  We have an internal electrical system.  The fact of saying that outside electrical impulses would have ZERO affect on how we function, makes ZERO sense.  It’s true for plants, birds.  And US!  The potential for harm is quite great.

TIPS:
-get rid of wireless keyboards, mice, earphones
-smart meters removed
– get a wired landline for your phone
-turn wifi off
-turn phone off or on airplane mode when not using it
-never keep in on the body
-don’t even give a phone to a child unless on airplane move
-get EMF protectors (i like aulterra or hedrom)
-ipads belong on tables (tablets) – they are testing 20 cm away form a adult male body of 220lb guy, NEVER ON THE BODIES OF YOUNG CHILDREN!
-if the signal is weak, radiation is higher. radiation goes onto you when its on your body.

Be EDUCATED crew.  I’ve been testing EMFs with my genetic profiles now to help the body be more enhances nutritionally, as it damages our cell walls.  The fact of the matter is, less is more. Protect your families and yourself.
