3 Simple Ways To Reduce EMF Exposure, Naturally

EMF stands for electromagnetic fields. It refers to the radiation given off by electrical and magnetic forces generated by everything from cell phones to communication towers to microwaves to radios to the earth, itself. Even your body can carry an electromagnetic charge, producing its own electricity (hello nervous system). As in most cases, Natural EMFs are beneficial and necessary to our existence, yet there are many man made electrical fields around each and every electronic device that come with increased risk to our health and wellness.

EMFs are one of those things our modern society can't function without… unless you're able to live completely off-grid without electricity or cell phone technology. This really isn't feasible in today's day, especially with 5G towers popping up everywhere to connect to 5G satellites, and most wireless communications companies having nearly complete nation-wide coverage.

There are both natural and human-made sources of non-ionizing EMFs. The earth’s magnetic field, which causes the needle on a compass to point North, is one example of a naturally occurring EMF.

Human-made electromagnetic frequencies fall into both the ELF and radio-frequency categories of non-ionizing part of the electromagnetic spectrum. These EMFs can come from a number of sources (basically anything that uses electrical energy… your phone, hair dryer, electrical appliances, electric blankets, smart meters, microwave ovens, wi-fi routers, wireless devices, fluorescent lights, or electric tooth brushes…etc). 

Non-ionizing radiation doesn’t seem to damage cells in the way that ionizing radiation does, however there are still some very large concerns around its potential to harm and cause disease in adults and children. 

Scientists aren’t sure how EMF radiation damages cells. While there are lots of scientific studies, many only show problems when the radiation levels are so high most normal children and adults will never experience them. However, there are enough studies that haven’t been conclusive (or that have indicated potential problems) that many health experts consider EMF radiation to be a concern. 

As the National Cancer Institute’s website points out, there has been a large amount of research on the issue, but most of it is inconclusive. Some studies have shown that harmful radiation from EMFs can lead to breast cancer, leukemia in children and adults, heart disease, and an inability to get deep, restorative sleep at night (which has ripple effects throughout the rest of our health). 

What is concerning is that “a review of more than two dozen studies on low-frequency EMFs suggests these energy fields may cause various neurological and psychiatric problems in people. (One study) found a link between EMF exposure and changes in human nerve function throughout the body, affecting things like sleep and mood.” (source).

Many experts also point to the exponential rise in EMF radiation. Our homes and most public and workspaces (including schools) now have wifi. As a society, we’re all more connected than ever to devices of every conceivable kind, including wearable devices. And, people aren’t just encountering all this EMF radiation as adults, with fully formed bodies… our children encounter the same levels of radiation we deal with daily, even before they’re even born. 

Important questions are being raised about the growing link between EMF radiation and everything from bad sleep, to poor energy, infertility, abnormal growth and development, and the ability to focus and feel well at school. It’s also worth noting that other countries (including France and Israel) have banned the use of wifi in schools to protect their children. Personally, I see the possible health risks as a solid reason to limit my family's exposure.

Health Concerns of Too Much EMF Exposure:

In addition to posing a cancer risk, too much exposure to “dirty electricity” may also cause:

  • Ringing in the ears (Tinnitus)
  • Sensitivity to sound
  • An unexpected earache along with difficulty in keeping ones balance
  • Inability to concentrate
  • Confusion, lack of mental clarity, and brain fog
  • Attention Deficit Disorders or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorders
  • Memory loss
  • Dizziness and nausea without discernible cause
  • Insomnia
  • Coughing and throat problems
  • Shortness of breath
  • Sinusitis
  • Asthma
  • Fluctuations in the heart rate
  • Chest pains
  • Fluctuating blood pressure
  • Gritty eyes, deteriorating vision
  • Light sensitivity
  • Development of “tics”
  • Change in outlook such as depression, anxiety, anger and mood swings
  • Weakness and spasms in the muscles, pain in the joints
  • Acne, irritation or rashes, swelling in the face or flushes
  • Bladder problems and unusual sweating
  • Upset stomach
  • Flatulence
  • Allergies and allergic reactions
  • Sensitivities to chemicals or smells
  • Sleep disturbances and insomnia
  • Oxidative stress and premature aging
  • Reduced immune system functioning

And yes, these symptoms are not exclusive to people. They may be present in animals too.

Natural Ways To Reduce or Counteract EMF Effects:

EMFs aren't something to fear, but something to prepare for throughout our daily lives. The best part: it doesn't have to be complicated.

Simple Lifestyle Shifts To Reduce or Counteract EMF Effects

This can be as simple as turning off your WiFi router and other electronic devices when you're not actively using them (or turning tablets and even cell phones into airplane mode).

Don't have any electronic devices near your bed while you sleep. I highly recommend also moving your cell phone chargers somewhere outside of your bedrooms (and away from any wall adjacent to your bed).

Get grounded. Spend time outside, barefoot in the grass or on the sand. Use the Earth’s natural energy to help bring your energies back into alignment.

Use an EMF blanket to help block out electric fields.

Ensure you're conscious about the products you use in your home. Too many popular products (pretty much everything you'll find in typical stores) for cleaning, personal care, and cosmetics are riddled with harmful chemicals that destroy your immune system and wreak havoc on your body. Those combined with EMFs may pose a greater risk than if you swap them out for healthier alternatives. Unfortunately reading the labels can be difficult.

Healthy Home, Happy Life online course teaches you all about how to identify toxic ingredients in common household products, including cleaners, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, soaps, skin care, cosmetics, hair care, and laundry products. It provides lists of chemicals to avoid, how to read labels, and suggest safe alternatives.

Neodymium Magnet Jewelry (Bio-Magnets) To Help Counteract Harmful Effects of EMFs

Neodymium Magnets are among several EMF protection products that are worth keeping on hand. Personally, I believe these magnets are the best way and easiest way to protect yourself from EMFs too.

In addition to counteracting harmful effects of EMFs, Neodymium Magnets have been found to provide better sleep, reduce joint pain, increase blood flow, improve balance, increase energy, no longer being bothered by mosquitos, and improve wellness, more positive moods, and better focus.

My favorite places to find Neodymium Magnet jewelry is at Magnetude Jewelry and EMF Harmony.

Magnetude has gorgeous designs that are fully customizable. Simply pick a base, and pick a ‘Tude that magnetically fits into the base.

EMF Harmony has many different options to use throughout your home, including a few necklace and bracelet options.

Using Essential Oils To Counteract Harmful Effects of EMF

Pure essential oils may raise your body’s vibration (energy), so your body can function as best as it can to keep your immune system strong, especially when confronted with electromagnetic radiation. These plant essences are powerful tools divinely designed to provide your body support on all levels – physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual.

My favorite essential oils you can wear or diffuse around you that will help your body counteract the harmful biological effects of EMF radiation.

And of course, my family's favorite immunity blend is also helpful (you can find our DIY immunity recipe here)

These oils can be used in combination with each other (and other oils), or by themselves. Just be careful that oils like Orange are photosensitive, so you're not wearing them on your skin in the same area that may be exposed to direct sunlight within 12 hours.

My favorite way to wear these essential oils is by using diffusing jewelry. Whether you make your own clay pendants or opt for a stainless steel locket, there are plenty to choose from.

Using Phototherapy Patches To Protect Your Body From EMF

Phototherapy patches are rapidly gaining popularity thanks to LifeWave's inventive ideas. At first, I was extremely skeptical, but then, after trying it for a short while, I realized there was something to this, and it became one of my favorite ways to mitigate EMFs for myself and my family (and yes, I do notice a huge difference in my children on days where we are exposed more than normal and do vs do not wear the patches).

While my personal experience started with just the X39 patch, it was brought to my attention that the X49 patch is very valuable to keep on hand, especially if you spend time around electronics, drive in a modern car, or spend time near high-tension power lines or cell phone towers.

In fact, it looks like the X49 patch may help with essentially creating a Faraday cage around your body, using your body's reflected infrared.

If you want to give it a try, I highly recommend X39 combined with X49 to maximize how they assist your body, and buying the bundle is a bit gentler on your budget.

Support Your Gut Health To Counteract EMF Effects

While it is well documented and acknowledged that EMFs may cause neurological issues, headaches, cognitive struggles, cardiovascular concerns, infertility, and potentially cancers. One overlooked system is that EMF exposure causes harm to the flora balance in your intestines. Recent research on gut health shows that poor gut health may negatively impact your entire body, including sparking inflammation, autoimmune flares, and metabolic disorders. EMFs may damage the delicate microflora balance, causing an overgrowth of bad bacteria and yeast. This imbalance may also cause distortions along the gut-brain axis nerve.

Since EMFs can't be easily avoided, it's up to you to take the necessary steps to support your body to overcome these effects. One of the easiest ways is through the foods you choose to eat, but embracing an anti-inflammatory diet only goes so far when so many foods lack the nutritional content of decades past, and when so many foods are contaminated with heavy metals from various sprays used in farming. The next best option is to use healthy supplements that specifically serve to benefit your gut flora balance.

The supplements my family uses and loves come from Amare. They focus on gut health using all plant-based non-GMO ingredients in a manner that promotes mental wellness through optimizing the gut-brain axis. After starting out with the Reboot, my family uses the Fundamentals Pack, Kids Pack, and Happy Juice.

EMF Protection Solutions for Around Your Home

There are a few things you can do around your home or office to help mitigate EMF's harmful effects on your body (and your family). They also offer a variety of on-the-go products too, including:

Closing Thoughts

In conclusion, there are several natural ways to counteract the harmful effects of EMF radiation. By incorporating simple practices such as using shielding devices, spending time in nature, and practicing grounding techniques, individuals can reduce their exposure to EMF radiation. Additionally, maintaining a healthy lifestyle through proper nutrition, regular exercise, and adequate sleep can also help mitigate the impact of EMF radiation on the body.

It is important to stay informed about the potential risks of EMF exposure and take proactive steps to protect our health. By implementing these natural strategies, we can empower ourselves to minimize the negative effects of EMF radiation and support overall well-being.
