Many people have heard of the acronym EMF, but do you know what it stands for and what it does? EMF means electromagnetic field and this is a frequency that can be emitted by computer monitors, cell phones, microwaves and even in visible light. The frequency can change depending on the type of item and some oscillate at higher, more dangerous frequencies than others. They can be dangerous as some people are electrically sensitive. This is where electromagnetic protection comes into play and can be used by anyone who wished to avoid the effects of any EMF.
Certain electromagnetic protection devices can be in the form of computer and cell phone shields that may block some of the EMF waves and can also help with reducing glare from the computer screen. Others can reduce the effects of EMF. Although exposure to microware radiation and cell phone radiation has been talked about in the media, many people are still adamant that these do not cause diseases, which they actually can. It is just not completely understood how they can, so this has led manufacturers and the like to refute the claims. Some of the diseases that prolonged exposure to EMF’s cause or speed up are childhood leukemia, many cancers, and even depression.
When looking at children and EMF’s one can see that there are far more cases of childhood cancers and diseases than ever before. There are also far more children carrying and using cell phones than in the past and also being exposed to televisions, computers and microwaves. One can easily put two and two together.
Anther biological effect of an EMF is fibromyalgia. This is a disease that may go undiagnosed for years and may start in childhood. It is associated with pain and tactile allodynia which is when someone feels pain from light pressure or something like the movement of clothes over the skin. This is a non progressive disease with symptoms increasing and recessing intermittently without getting worse or life threatening. It can also disturb sleeping patterns, cause fatigue, contribute to major depression, and irritate the functioning of the bowel and other minor ailments. Fibromyalgia and EMF’s are linked because of the common factor of stress and pain. It has been documented that with many auto immune diseases that if the electrical factor and frequencies of EMF’s were eliminated that the patients will begin to heal.
This is why it is very important to protect yourself from the dangers of electromagnetic fields, even though there are some that tell us they are not dangerous. If you look at the world over the last 200 years, you will see that with the introduction of modern technology and EMF’s there are new diseases like fibromyalgia, restless leg syndrome, chronic fatigue, cancers, and rheumatoid arthritis. This shows that something in our environment is causing our immune systems to suffer and with electromagnetic protection you can start to eliminate this one cause and start to enjoy your life again free from pain, fatigue, and depression.
