Electromagnetic Radiation: What You Need to Know and how to Reduce Your Risk of EMF Exposure.

While it may be impossible to completely eliminate electromagnetic radiation (EMR) from your life, there are a few simple steps you can take to reduce your exposure to this type of radiation. EMR is emitted from electronic devices such as laptops, smartphones, and tablets, and has been linked to multiple health problems from brain fog and headaches to infertility.

In today’s world, technology is everywhere. Cars are now available with backup cameras and sensors that warn you of impending collisions. Smartphones can monitor your heart rate and track your fitness activity. And microwaves have a variety of settings to cook food perfectly every time.

But the more we rely on these devices, the less aware we become about the risks they pose to our health—specifically in regards to electromagnetic radiation (EMR). EMF exposure has been shown in research and studies to be linked with serious conditions like cancer, dementia, depression and ADHD. This article will discuss how you can reduce your risk of EMR exposure at home by taking a few simple steps such as switching off wifi or not sleeping with your phone next to your head.

What is Electromagnetic Radiation?

We are constantly surrounded by electromagnetic radiation (EMR), also known as electromagnetic fields (EMF). This type of radiation is emitted by all sorts of devices, from our cell phones and laptops to microwaves and even power lines. Although it’s invisible, EMR can have harmful effects on our health in the long run. Studies have linked exposure to EMF to an increased risk of cancer, fertility problems, and other health issues.

EMR is a type of energy that is emitted from electronic devices and can be found in both ionizing and non-ionizing forms. Ionizing radiation, such as x-rays and UV rays, has enough energy to break apart DNA molecules, which can lead to cancer. Non-ionizing radiation, such as radiofrequency (RF) waves, does not have enough energy to damage DNA directly but can still cause other health problems.

Non-ionizing radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation that doesn't have enough energy to remove electrons from atoms and molecules. This radiation includes radio waves, microwaves, and infrared radiation. Non-ionizing radiation is all around us and we can't see it, but sometimes we can feel it as heat. It's most common in the microwave band of the electromagnetic spectrum.

How to reduce your risk of Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) exposure at home?

There are a few simple things you can do to reduce your risk of EMR exposure at home. One is to keep your distance from sources of EMR. One of the main sources is your wifi router. Another is to use shielding materials to protect yourself from radiation. You can also minimize your use of electronic devices, and avoid using them when possible or at least put your phone on aeroplane mode.

One way to reduce your exposure to Electromagnetic Radiation at home is to keep your distance from sources of radiation (not alway easy). EMR is emitted from all electronic devices and in the small print they will always suggest a distance to stay away. (IE all phones tell yopu not to hold against your body!!!) If you use phones regularly, try to use the speaker phone as much as possible.

Never use airpods!

Another way to reduce your exposure in your house, mainly from outside phone masts or smart mter on you or your neaighbours wall is to use shielding materials.

Shielding materials can help block or reflect EMF radiation, making it less likely for you to be exposed to harmful levels of it. Some common shielding materials include aluminum foil, copper mesh, and conductive fabric.

There is also special paint for the putside of your house.

I would suggest an easier and more simpler and affordable solution would be a product such as Comosystems EMR Protection using a compensating signal.

Possible long-term side effects of EMF Exposure and how they might effect you.

There is still much unknown about the long-term effects of electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure. However, some potential risks have been identified. One study showed that people who were exposed to high levels of EMF for long periods of time were at a higher risk for developing cancer. Another study showed that EMF exposure can cause fertility problems in both men and women.

It is important to be aware of these risks and take steps to minimize your exposure, especially if you are pregnant or trying to conceive. Some ways to reduce your exposure include: using a cell phone headset or speakerphone, keeping your cell phone away from your body, and avoiding using electronic devices before bedtime.

Although more research is needed to fully understand the risks of EMF exposure, it is important to take precautions to protect yourself and your family.

Additional Ten Tips for reducing EMR exposure from technology devices.

1. Place your technology device farther away from your body.

2. Use the speakerphone or headphones to talk on the phone.

3. Avoid using your technology device when the signal is weak.

4. Decrease the brightness of your device's screen.

5. Take breaks from using your technology device.

6. Use a corded landline phone instead of a cordless or cell phone.

7. Keep your technology devices away from your bed at night.

8. Avoid using your laptop on your lap for long periods of time.

9. Consider purchasing an EMR protection for your phones, laptop, ipads and throughout your home or office.

10. Disconnect from the internet when not using your technology device.

Conclusion

With the proliferation of technology devices in our lives, we are constantly exposed to electromagnetic radiation (EMR) from electronic sources. While there is still much unknown about the long-term effects of EMF exposure and how it might affect your health, some potential risks have been identified. One study showed that people who were exposed to high levels of EMF for long periods of time were at a higher risk for developing cancer. Another study showed that EMF exposure can cause fertility problems in both men and women.
