Hey there! Have you ever thought about all the invisible waves and signals that are constantly floating around us in the air? It's pretty mind-blowing when you stop to think about it. We're talking about the electromagnetic spectrum, which is basically a fancy way of saying all the different types of energy waves that are out there.

Now, here's something that might surprise you - these waves can actually have an impact on our health. It's pretty crazy to think that something we can't even see or feel could be affecting our bodies, right?

That's why we put together this article. We want to help you better understand the good, the bad, and the ugly effects of the electromagnetic spectrum on our health. We'll be exploring everything from how sunlight can be good for us to the potential risks of using our cell phones too much.

So, kick back and relax. Let's dive into this fascinating topic together and learn more about how the electromagnetic spectrum can impact our health.

The Good

The electromagnetic spectrum is not just something we learned about in science class - it actually has a range of positive effects on our health! Let's take a closer look at some of the ways that different wavelengths of electromagnetic waves can benefit us:

  • Red Light: When we are exposed to red light, our energy production increases, our mood improves, and we can even experience mitochondrial and circadian benefits!

  • Infrared Light: This type of light can actually neutralize the damage caused by bad light and increase circulation, which can be helpful for conditions such as diabetic neuropathy. Plus, did you know that infrared light can be amplified with gold foil for even more benefits?

  • Ultraviolet Light: This wavelength has a whole host of benefits, including controlling our thoughts, mood, and biorhythms, naturally lowering blood pressure, and repairing damage and recycling mitochondria. Exposure to UV light has also been shown to boost our immune system, decrease the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes, and even increase our lifespan!

  • Schumann Resonance: This type of electromagnetic wave synchronizes our brain and body cells, helping us to feel more balanced and centered.

  • Light: Light itself can also have beneficial effects on our health, such as regulating our biorhythms, controlling biological processes like hormone production and energy production, and even containing photoreceptors!

  • Sunlight: Perhaps the most well-known benefit of the electromagnetic spectrum is the positive effects of sunlight on our health. Exposure to sunlight provides us with important vitamins like vitamin D, helps regulate our circadian rhythms, and even helps improve bone health by increasing calcium absorption and reducing the risk of osteoporosis.

Overall, it is clear that the electromagnetic spectrum has a range of positive effects on our health. From red and infrared light to UV light and the Schumann Resonance, understanding and appreciating the positive effects of different wavelengths of electromagnetic waves on our health is crucial for our overall well-being.

The Bad

As much as we rely on electromagnetic waves for various purposes, exposure to certain types of waves can have negative effects on our health. Let's take a look at some of these potential risks:

1.  Negative effects of exposure to non-native electromagnetic frequencies (nnEMFs):

Causes: Exposure to nnEMFs from sources such as power grids and wireless devices, which can have harmful effects on human health.

2.    Negative effects of exposure to concentrated microwaves:

Causes: Exposure to concentrated microwaves from communication devices that transmit and receive using microwaves.

3.    Negative effects of exposure to blue light:

Causes: Exposure to artificial blue light (absent UV and IR) that is the most destructive toxin to modern man.

It's important to note that non-native EMFs can disturb sleep and concentration, cause headaches, fatigue, and hypersensitivity to all nnEMFs, depress the immune system, lower fertility, and even cause brain tumors. Lower life forms are even more profoundly affected by nnEMFs because their biology is simpler and more closely connected to nature. The metabolism of bees, for example, is spoiled by nnEMFs so they have great difficulty living close to transmitters. Non-native EMFs stunt plant growth, particularly trees.

The Ugly

Non-native electromagnetic frequencies (nnEMFs) not only affect human health but also have a profound impact on lower life forms, such as bees and plants. Their biology is simpler and more closely connected to nature, making them more susceptible to the harmful effects of nnEMFs.

Bees, for example, play a crucial role in pollinating plants and maintaining ecosystems, but their metabolism is significantly affected by nnEMFs. They have difficulty living near transmitters, and their navigation systems are disrupted, leading to confusion and disorientation. This has a devastating effect on their ability to collect nectar and pollen, leading to decreased plant fertility and food production.

Similarly, nnEMFs stunt plant growth, particularly in trees, and aggravate gut flora, leading to decreased soil fertility and biodiversity. The long-term effects of nnEMFs on lower life forms are still unknown, but they have the potential to disrupt entire ecosystems and cause irreversible damage to our planet's delicate balance.

What's even more concerning is that corporate executives and engineers are aware of the subtle and insidious health dangers of nnEMFs, yet they choose to keep it quiet as long as possible. This is because wireless technology is driving most of the "progress" and profit in the industry, and acknowledging the risks associated with non-ionizing EMFs could lead to decreased demand and profits.

Despite decades of data showing the negative impact of nnEMFs on biology and the environment, tech companies continue to claim that modern communication devices are not dangerous because the EMFs they emit aren't strong enough to heat tissue or shake electrons loose in large numbers the way radioactivity does. However, this argument overlooks the long-term effects of chronic exposure to low-level radiation and the potential cumulative harm to our health and the environment.

Overall, the lack of transparency from the tech industry regarding the health risks associated with nnEMFs is concerning, and it is essential to take steps to minimize our exposure and protect ourselves, our communities, and the environment. In the next chapter, we will delve into ways to reduce exposure to nnEMFs and promote a healthier lifestyle.

Practical Ways to Reduce Exposure to nnEMFs

nnEMFs are everywhere, and reducing your exposure to them can seem like a daunting task. However, there are practical steps you can take to minimize your exposure and protect your health. In this chapter, we'll explore some simple yet effective ways to reduce your exposure to nnEMFs.

Reducing Exposure to Electricity

One of the primary sources of nnEMFs is electricity, and reducing your exposure to it is essential. Here are some tips to help you reduce your exposure:

Filter dirty electricity out of your living spaces: Install a dirty electricity filter to clean up the electrical wiring in your home.

Reduce your exposure to electricity: Turn off appliances and electronics when they're not in use, and unplug them when possible.

Choose devices that use less power: Look for energy-efficient devices that use less power, such as laptops and tablets.

Managing Electromagnetic Fields

 Another significant source of nnEMFs is electromagnetic fields (EMFs). Here are some tips to help you manage EMFs:

Check for bipolar magnetic fields where you spend the most time, and correct the ones presenting the highest exposure. You can hire a professional EMF consultant to assess your home and make recommendations.

Turn off your home computer network's Wi-Fi: Use wired connections instead of Wi-Fi to reduce your exposure to nnEMFs.

Shield your house from nnEMFs coming in: Use EMF shielding materials to protect your home from nnEMFs coming from outside.

Activate airplane mode when you aren't using your phone: This will reduce your exposure to nnEMFs emitted by your phone.

Increase distance (the Inverse Square Law): Keep a safe distance from sources of nnEMFs, such as power lines and cell towers.

Decrease exposure time: Limit the amount of time you spend in close proximity to sources of nnEMFs.

Sunlight Exposure and Lighting

Exposure to natural sunlight is essential for our health and well-being, but it's also important to manage our exposure to artificial light sources. Here are some tips to help you manage your exposure to light:

Get as much real sunlight as you can on your eyes and skin: Spend time outdoors in natural sunlight.

Use candle light, a patio fire pit, or oil-filled lamps as your preferred light source at night if you can: These options produce little to no nnEMFs.

Use incandescent or halogen in the places where you spend the most time: These types of bulbs emit less nnEMFs compared to LED bulbs.

Use blue-blocking glasses or apps to reduce exposure to blue light from digital devices: This will help reduce the negative impact of artificial light on your sleep and circadian rhythms.

Cover your skin with clothing to reduce exposure to blue light and UV light: Wear protective clothing and hats when outdoors during the day.

Choose healthier light bulbs, such as incandescent or halogen, over LED bulbs: This will help reduce your exposure to nnEMFs.

Use UV-permeable clothing to allow for natural sun exposure while protecting the skin: This type of clothing blocks harmful UV rays while allowing natural sunlight to penetrate.

Avoid using cell phones in moving vehicles to reduce exposure to nnEMFs: The metal frame of the vehicle can reflect and amplify nnEMFs emitted by your phone.

Reducing your exposure to nnEMFs is crucial for maintaining your health and well-being. By implementing these practical tips, you can minimize your exposure to nnEMFs and protect yourself from potential harm. Remember, reducing your exposure doesn't have to be complicated or expensive. Small changes can make a big difference.
