EMF Emissions Where Are They and What is a

Safe Distance?
EMF emissions, also known as electromagnetic radiation, cause health problems
with excessive exposure. The problem is, the emissions are everywhere and who is
monitoring safe levels NO ONE. Its up to you to find out where they are and to
test to see how much radiation is in your regular environment.

An occasional exposure to even moderately high EMF emissions isnt the problem. The
problem is when you are in an unsafe field on a regular daily basis, like at your
bed or desk, or too much wireless technology at your home or office. Our bodies
can only take so much then we start having serious health problems. AND an increasing
percentage of the population is developing a very disabling health problem called EMF
Hypersensitivity.

Each person has what I call a radiation cup. Once that cup gets full, health
problems and disease sets in. And I can tell you by the thousands of tests Ive
performed for myself and others, there are more strong fields in our environment today
than safe ones. Technology has boomed and so our EMF emissions and so our health
problems.

Distance - The Only Completely Safe Tactic

If you want to be completely safe from EMF radiation, distance is the only sure-fire way.
The only problem with that is that it is virtually impossible to get away from all EMF
emissions today unless you live at the North Pole with no cell phone and no
electricity. The wise solution is to know where your sources are and reduce all
levels in your daily environment to safe levels. Also be very clear as to what is good
EMF and what is bad EMF as noted here:

The Four Forms of Electromagnetic Radiation

The four forms of electromagnetic radiation include:

Electric - Anything having an electric field including power lines that transport
it.
Magnetic - Anything having a magnetic field which could come from an electric
source or from a motor or engine.
Wireless/RF/Wi Fi/Microwave - Anything that communicates with a
wireless signal using radio frequency, microwave, wi-fi, etc.
Ionizing - Includes gamma rays, UV rays and X-rays.

Likely Places for EMF Emissions

The only way to know if an area or device is safe is to test with EMF
meters. One model of wireless house phone may be safe, but most are extremely high
radiation like cell phones. One model of computer may be safe in one room but high
electric radiation in another room - Yes, very same computer! One wall in your house
may be safe and the other may have a wiring problem and test on overload (max for the
meter). A cell tower in your neighborhood may not be transmitting toward your house or
it could be sending extremely unsafe levels right through your walls. And it could be a
half mile away and unseen from your location.

You dont need a handful of expensive meters to accomplish a safe environment


just two and Ill give you that information here.

EMF Emissions Categories

The four main categories for EMF emissions


are Electric, Magnetic,Wireless and Ionizing. Here is a list of many sources and facts
for each category:

Electric - Anything powered by electricity including electric power lines,


transformers, electrical boxes and wiring, kitchen appliances such as blenders,
toasters, food processors, coffee makers, microwaves (have an electric and
ionizing radiation field); lamps and lighting fixtures, fans, electric heaters,
furnaces, air conditioners, electric blankets and heating pads, hair dryers,
electronic devices such as computers, laptops, printers, cell phone chargers,
stereos, telephones, televisions and much more anything you plug in to
electricity.

RECOMMENDED EXPOSURE LIMIT OF AC ELECTRIC FIELDS: BELOW 10 V/M,


PREFERABLY BELOW 1 V/M (AT 50/60 HZ).

Electric EMF Emissions Facts - Electrical power called VLF (very low frequency)A/C
(alternating current) at 60 Hertz can only be transmitted in wires. The electrical field
extends out from the wire at a range depending upon how much current flows in the
wires. The EMF emissions from power in houses normally extends from 4 to 15 feet
from the wiring or device depending on how much current flows in the wires - with an
average of about 4-6 feet.

You cant know for sure where these EMF emissions fields are and how strong
they are unless you measure them with a EMF meter. For example, some granite
countertops are known to have ionizing radiation, but the ones I have tested all had
spots of extremely high electric radiation resonating from them, because of the
electrical wiring under, above and beside them, to the naturally occurring metals in
the granite. Also, a metal lamp in my bedroom had EMF emissions, even though it was
unplugged, resonating from the corded phone beside it. I have found that all metal
(including the metal pins in my foot from a previous surgery) picks up electrical
currents that are in close proximity and radiates that stolen electricity. My bone
cancer symptoms started in the bone where the pins are. Fluorescent lights can
drastically increase the magnetic field in nearby or downline wiring.

Many unusual things occur with EMF emissions that you would never imagine. I found
this out by buying two meters and using them often.

Magnetic - Magnetic fields can come from two sources: 1) from moving
electric currents or 2) from electron motion (orbital or spin). So, all electrical
sources above will also have a magnetic field and additionally, devices which
have spinning electrons such as gas powered engines riding mowers, weed
eaters, golf carts, go carts, four wheelers, motorcycles, cars, jackhammers, A/C
unit, etc.
RECOMMENDED EXPOSURE LIMIT OF AC MAGNETIC FIELDS: BELOW 200 NT
(2.00 MG), PREFERABLY BELOW 20 NT (.20 MG) (AT 50/60 HZ).

Magnetic EMF Emissions Facts - You dont hear as much about magnetic radiation
as the other types of radiation but dont let that fool you! It was the magnetic
radiation from a very high powered zero-turn lawnmower that gave me breast cancer,
colon cancer and lung cancer in about 2-3 weeks time of daily use. I later was talking
to a young man at a register about my mower and he said his mother had one. I told
him to tell her not to be on it much and he said she didnt ride it anymore she got
breast cancer. And then there is the man I talked to who had developed testicular
cancer during the winter months when he was using a jackhammer all winter at work.

Remember the invisible radiation cup that fills up with the EMF emissions our body is
exposed to? Once its full, the cells in our body start turning into cancer cells and other
types of disease. These high powered machines add to what is already there and fills
the cup up very quickly. They sure make life easier and sometimes more fun
but then we have no life!

Wireless - Includes wi fi , RF, micro wave, cellular EMF Emissions distributed


by devices such as computer, video, mobile phone, wireless house phones,
printers, laptops, palm computers, MP3, business and public service
communication systems; cell phones, cell towers, broadband towers and
routers, GPS, service providers such as military, fire, taxi, police; baby
monitors, wireless internet connections, etc. Includes all wireless technology
that communicates without being hardwired to the device it is communicating
with. Electric meter reporting is beginning to go wireless in many areas with
wireless devices at the pole and some even in the house.

SCIENTISTS CONSIDER A PERSON'S HEALTH TO BE MORE AT RISK FROM


WIRELESS MICROWAVE RADIATION THAN RADIATION FROM HOUSEHOLD
WIRING AND ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES THE PULSING CHATTER MORE
UPSETTING TO HUMAN CELL STRUCTURE. FOR BEST EMF PROTECTION, THE
GOAL SHOULD BE NO WIRELESS RADIATION IN YOUR REGULAR
ENVIRONMENT.

Wireless EMF Emissions Facts - Many, if not most, electronics have the option of
being hardwired or wireless. What many people dont know is that even if you have a
device hardwired, it still radiates until you turn off the wireless capability and that is
not even possible with some devices.

For instance, a laptop can be hardwired to the internet connection so the wireless
radiation is eliminated (put the receiver outside the house and wire inside to computer
then test to be sure no radiation is in house). But to achieve complete elimination of
wireless radiation you must also switch off wireless button on outside of
computer and go internally and turn off wireless technology. (And remember, even
then you have to deal with electric, magnetic and ionizing radiation of the computer
but it is possible to have a pretty safe system you can be on for hours its all in the
setup.)

Ionizing - The most powerful at low doses with shorter wave lengths, ionizing
EMF emissions destroys DNA in living cells at the fastest rate of all radiation. It
is cumulative and very difficult to disperse from the body. Three types of
ionizing radiation are UV rays, X-rays and gamma rays.
Here are some of the sources found in our environment: medical therapy such as
radiation therapy, radioactive iodine, PET or SPECT/CT, white blood cell scans,
mammography (use thermography instead), X-rays, barium from upper GIs; airport
X-rays, those who fly frequently at high altitudes, irradiated food, emissions from
burning fossil fuels such as coal fired power plants, emissions from nuclear power
plants, emissions from combustible fuel such as gas and coal, nuclear weapon test
sites, radon in homes, building material such as some granite, travertine, smoke
detectors and hoses for floor heating, cathode ray tubes in televisions and computer
screens, integrated circuits, luminous watches and dials, fluorescent lights, lantern
mantels, tobacco, etc.

THERE ARE NO SAFE LEVELS OF IONIZING RADIATION. ACCORDING TO THE


INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION ON RADIOLOGICAL PROTECTION, THE
RECOMMENDED ANNUAL DOSE LIMIT FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC IS 1 MSV.

Ionizing EMF Emissions Facts - Even low dose exposure causes damage to living
tissue including cancer, tumors and genetic (DNA) damage. Radon (vapor from
uranium decay that comes up out of the ground) in homes is the second leading cause
of lung cancer after smoking and second hand smoke. This category is harder to
measure but usually more obvious without a meter and easier to avoid.

In summary

In summary, for best emf protection, it all boils down to how much EMF emissions you
are getting as a whole from day to day. You cant know this unless you have a wireless
meter and an electric and magnetic meter.
