Protect Your Health with EMF Protection
What Are Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs)?
Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are a type of radiation emitted by electrical and electronic devices like cell phones, Wi-Fi routers, power lines, TVs, and more. These fields are present everywhere in our modern world.
Our bodies are sensitive to these fields, and research shows that EMFs can interfere with biological processes. For example, artificial magnetic fields can reduce the production of melatonin, a hormone crucial for sleep and cancer prevention.
Common Sources of EMFs
Home
Work & School
Outdoors
Cars
How Can I Reduce EMFs in My Home?
Rearrange furniture
Unplug
Limit wireless use
Measure EMFs
What Can I Do If I Find High EMFs in My Home?
Reducing EMFs from Cell Phones
- Limit usage: Use your phone less often and only for short calls.
- Use speakerphone: Keep the phone away from your body.
- Hands-free kits: Use air tube headsets instead of regular wired ones to minimize EMF exposure to your head.

What are the types of EMF?
ELF Magnetic Fields
- Health Impact: ELF magnetic fields are most often associated with serious health risks such as childhood leukemia and other cancers.
- Common Sources: Electric power lines, electrical wiring, lighting fixtures, electric appliances, and many electrical devices. Issues like faulty wiring or stray electrical currents in metal pipes can also create high levels of magnetic fields.
- Measurement: Measured with an ELF gaussmeter, usually in units such as “milligauss” (mG).
ELF Electric Fields
- Health Impact: While less studied than magnetic fields, ELF electric fields have been linked to biological effects and are often reported by individuals who feel “sensitive” to EMFs.
- Common Sources: Hidden electrical wiring, power cords for lamps and devices, and power lines. These fields create unnatural electric voltages on the skin.
- Measurement: Measured directly with a Body Volt Meter, in units such as “Volts AC”.
RF Fields (Radio Frequency Fields, including Microwaves)
- Health Impact: RF fields have been associated with various cancers and other health effects, particularly from prolonged exposure.
- Common Sources: Emitted by electronic and wireless equipment such as cell towers, cell phones, Wi-Fi routers, Smart Meters, microwave ovens, radar, and even everyday devices like baby monitors and security systems.
- Measurement: Measured with an RF test meter, in units such as “microwatts per centimeter squared” (μW/cm²) or “volts per meter” (V/m).
