Due to widespread doubts about its health and safety, a noteworthy resistance to fifth-generation wireless technology (5G) is occurring across Europe and beyond. On March 31^st, Brussels (Belgium) became the first city to halt 5G rollout based on health concerns. For Brussels to accept 5G, they would first have to increase allowable radiation limit ordinances by 30-40%.

Celine Fremault, Environmental Minister for the Brussels-Capital Region, explained to the press, “I cannot welcome such technology if the radiation standards, which must protect the citizen(s), are not respected, 5G or not. The people of Brussels are not guinea pigs whose health I can sell at a profit.”

Other recent moves against 5G in and around Europe include:

• Florence, Italy refuses permissions for 5G
• The Russian Ministry of Defence refuses to transfer spectrum frequencies for 5G use
• Dutch members of parliament insist that radiation research must be carried out before approving 5G
• Germans sign a petition to force the Bundestag (German federal parliament) to debate 5G
• A district in Rome votes against 5G trials

Four Swiss cantons (federal states) call for a pause on 5G, until the environmental impact is clear. However, in a bold move, Swiss telecom giant Swisscom defied these ordinances, and in April, began activating 5G antennas in 102 locations. This has resulted in “a huge backlash against 5G” in Switzerland, according to Olivier Vuillemin, the Main UN Representative in Geneva for the Planetary Association for Clean Energy (PACE).

International Appeal: Stop 5G on Earth and in Space

In 2018, an International Appeal was written to stop the rollout of 5G in every country on earth, and in space. As of June 2019, it has been signed by over 100,000 people from at least 187 countries, including scientists, doctors, environmental organizations, engineers, architects and more. The appeal is addressed to the UN, WHO, EU, Council of Europe and governments of all nations, and has been printed in 27 languages.

“5G – the 5th generation of wireless technology – must not be built on Earth or in Space. The notion that radio frequency radiation, commonly known as radio waves, is somehow not real radiation and is harmless, was disproven by the 1970s in laboratories all over the world, and the harm to humans, animals and plants has since been confirmed in over 10,000 peer-reviewed studies. If 5G is built, radiation levels will increase 10- to 100-fold, virtually overnight, everywhere. There will literally be no place on Earth to hide from it.

The effects of levels of radio frequency radiation already existing now on the health of the population and the environment, as reflected in quality of life; high rates of cancer, neurological disease, heart disease and diabetes, even in children; plummeting populations of birds, bees and butterflies; and unhealthy forests, can be seen and felt everywhere.

We urge governments and the public to read the Appeal carefully, and to act accordingly.”

– Arthur Firstenberg, Administrator for the International Appeal to Stop 5G on Earth and in Space

Why exactly is 5G such a concern?

The urgency of concern comes from a multitude of angles. 20,000 satellites are authorized to be deployed into the lower and middle atmosphere of Earth, to broadcast the very high radio frequency radiation of 5G. This particular frequency range has not been safety tested for biological and environmental effects, but radio frequency radiation at levels currently used for 4G and 3G networks, cell phones and wifi (which are far lower frequencies than 5G will be), has consistently demonstrated adverse effects on all biological life.

The main purpose of these 20,000 satellites will be to blast radiation into the wild places, the far corners of the earth, which are currently “off-grid” and have the most teeming abundance of wildlife. Their selling point on this is to “increase connectivity in rural areas,” which can be accomplished much more effectively and safely, and with far lower energy consumption, with municipal broadband/fiber optic cables.

The implications of radiating these pristine, currently untouched areas could be devastating to all life on earth.

Another significant danger of filling the Earth’s atmosphere and ionosphere with tens of thousands of new satellites, all transmitting high frequency radiation, is potential effects on the Earth’s entire ecosystem. The Earth, the ionosphere and the lower atmosphere all form what’s called the “global electric circuit,” which is the natural electromagnetic environment we live in. It is well established that the biological rhythms of all life – humans, other mammals, birds, insects, plants and even microbes – rely on the stability of this environment for their health and well-being.

In 1985, Dr. Robert O. Becker found that radiation from power lines reaches the Earth’s ionosphere and magnetosphere, and had already destabilized its structure. He warned that the continued expansion of this effect, which has since been increasing exponentially as the power of technology increases, “threatens the viability of all life on earth.”

Perhaps the places that will bear the heaviest fallout of harmful effects from 5G are the cities of the world. The introduction of 5G will require installing literally millions of new mini mobile phone “base stations” in cities all over the world. They will have to be placed every 100 meters, and even inside houses and offices, due to the inability of the 5G millimeter waves to penetrate long distances, and through walls, trees, and other solid objects. Each base station will contain hundreds to thousands of antennas, aiming multiple laser-like beams simultaneously at all cell phones and user devices in its service area, at far higher frequency and power levels than what we are currently exposed to.

What can we do to protect ourselves?

Becoming aware and informed about the ongoing 5G battle being waged between government agencies, telecommunications industries, scientists, doctors, experts on electromagnetic radiation, and concerned citizens is vital. The future of the Earth and all its inhabitants could be affected greatly by the outcome of this battle between ethics and “progress,” which ultimately causes us to ponder deeply if ethics and progress even need to be contradictory – or is there a way to further our technological complexity and achievement in ways that are ethical and biologically harmonious? We believe there is. It will require giving up the “rush to the future” that is currently causing governments and industries to blatantly disregard safety studies and barrel forward with implementing 5G technology as soon as physically possible, and slow down enough to find a solution to technological advancement that may not be instant, but is sustainable and healthy in the long run.

We feel that with the EMF’s currently surrounding us that have already been proven to harm biology, and the uncertainty of what’s coming with the far more powerful 5G, smart meters and “Internet of Things” technology, it’s imperative to protect ourselves immediately. The most powerful strategy we know of to instantly protect ourselves, our families and all living things in our immediate surroundings is bringing the biologically harmonious, Earth-frequency based Blushield technology into our homes.

The complex algorithms in Blushield microprocessors are based on the ever changing, biologically harmonious frequencies of the Earth’s natural electromagnetic field, which humans and all other living organisms have evolved with since our very beginnings. Blushield technology is revolutionizing EMF protection with its powerful active fields, vastly outperforming the weak, passive fields of most supposed EMF “blocking” devices.

Instead of attempting to block EMF’s, which is very likely ineffective anyway, Blushield essentially overpowers non-native EMF’s. Our bodies will then attune to the Blushield frequencies instead of the harmful manmade frequencies, because they are native to our bodies’ own natural frequencies. Like attracts like. Tuned into the natural and healing Blushield frequencies, our bodies no longer perceive the non-native EMF’s as a threat, and our immune system begins to restore itself. Our bodies can rest and heal.

Explore your options for Blushield Active EMF Protection here.

There are a variety of units for homes, offices, cars, and several portables to carry with you anywhere. Read through the variety of human and animal studies that have demonstrated conclusively the potent effectiveness of these devices, and keep yourself and your family safe and protected in these tumultuous times.

While many people feel optimistic that the 5G rollout will change society for the better, there have recently been concerns voiced by meteorologists, weather experts, and government agencies like NASA, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and the U.S. Navy, that the 5G frequencies could significantly compromise clear and accurate weather forecasts. This could potentially result in inadequate advance notice of big storms, hurricanes, and other inclement weather, endangering aircraft and naval vessels, and anyone who relies on advance notice of storms to sufficiently prepare themselves and their property.

Policymakers are now acknowledging the concerns of these experts and government agencies, and calling for more testing before mass rollouts happen. In a press release from Sen. Ron Wyden's (D-Ore) office in May of this year, the following statement was issued:

“U.S. Sens. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., the top Democrat on the Senate Commerce Committee, yesterday warned that an ongoing sale of wireless airwaves could damage the effectiveness of U.S. weather satellites and harm forecasts and predictions relied on to protect safety, property and national security. They also released an internal U.S. Navy memo that concluded that reducing the accuracy of weather forecasts could threaten the safety of aircraft and naval vessels, and reduce military awareness of battlefield conditions. Wyden and Cantwell urged the Trump administration not to allow wireless companies to operate fifth generation (5G) communications on 24 GHz spectrum until concerns over interference with weather forecasting satellites are addressed.”

Why 5G may affect weather sensors

The reason for concern is because 5G operates in the 24-25 GHz band, and water vapor emits radiation in the 23.6-24 GHz band. NASA and NOAA scientists are concerned that the weather forecasting equipment won’t be able to detect the faint signals that water vapor emits if the 5G transmissions are interfering at such a close frequency.

This "would result in roughly a 77 percent data loss from our passive microwave samples," reducing accuracy to levels not seen since about 1980, NOAA Assistant Secretary Neil Jacobs told members of Congress in a House hearing on May 16. For hurricane forecasts, this would reduce forecast lead times "by roughly two to three days," Jacobs said.

FCC rules allow out-of-band emissions of -20dB, a level that NASA and NOAA say is too high. NOAA's data indicates that an out-of-band emission level of about -50dB instead of -20dB would solve the problem, "result[ing] in roughly zero data loss," Jacobs told lawmakers.

FCC chairman claims concerns are based on bad data, proceeds with auction

FCC Chairman Ajit Pai dismisses these concerns, stating that the data provided by NASA and NOAA is “fundamentally flawed.”

"For example, it ignores the fact that 5G will involve beamforming, essentially adaptive antenna arrays that will more precisely send 5G signals – sort of a rifle shot, if you will, instead of a shotgun blast of 5G spectrum,” Pai elaborates.

Pai also criticizes the agencies for raising concerns “at the 11^thhour.”

"Over the last two and a half years we've patiently waited for a validated study to suggest that our proposed [emission] limit is inappropriate. We've never gotten such a validated study," he protests. Requiring lower-power emissions in 24 GHz spectrum could make the airwaves "unusable for 5G domestically."

In the midst of this unresolved controversy, the FCC went ahead and began auctioning off airwave licenses in the 24-25 GHz bands. Buyers so far include AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, US Cellular, and Starry.

Conclusion

Although it hasn’t been conclusively determined whether these multiple government agencies’ concerns about the effects of 5G on weather forecasts and predictions is truly something to worry about, and if this will become a serious enough matter to halt the mass 5G rollout to perform more thorough testing, this is certainly an issue to stay informed about.

During these uncertain times when the dangers of EMF’s, including 5G, on human biology have been scientifically proven, give your mind and body a significant advantage by utilizing the protection of Blushield technology.

The thyroid gland is located at the front of the neck and is part of the endocrine system. It is responsible for producing and regulating hormones that control almost every aspect of human physiology including breathing, digestion, heart function, body weight, brain development, menstrual cycle, body temperature, cholesterol levels, muscle control & strength, and the nervous systems.

What are Hyper- and Hypothyroidism?

The hormones produced by the thyroid glands are Triiodothyronine (T3) and Thyroxine (T4). For the thyroid to properly function, it is vital that T3 and T4 levels are neither too low nor too high. (There are other hormones and other chemicals in action here, but this is keeping it simple.)

When the thyroid produces too much hormone, the condition is known as hyperthyroidism; some of the symptoms include anxiety, weight loss, tremors, hyperactivity, heart palpitations, hair loss, Graves' disease, irritability and moodiness; irregular menstrual cycle, increased bowel movements, and sweating or sensitivity to heat.

Conversely, if the thyroid doesn't produce enough hormones then this condition is called hypothyroidism, and some of the symptoms are: insomnia, infertility, depression, low heart rate, poor memory, dry skin and hair, joint and muscle pain, difficulty concentrating, tiredness and fatigue; frequent heavy periods, reduced physical growth, stiffness of the muscles and intolerance to cold temperatures.

The Prevalence of Thyroid Disease

According to Thyroid.org, the world’s leading professional association of medical specialists dedicated to education and research to improve thyroid disease, about 20 million Americans suffer from some form of thyroid disease or another.

Additionally, 60 percent of people with thyroid disease are not even aware of their condition. And while people from all walks of life get thyroid disease, Thyroid.Org says women are 5 to 8 times more likely to have thyroid disease than men.

With so many people suffering from thyroid dysfunction, many researchers are asking the question, why? In recent years, an increasing number of studies indicate that exposure to electromagnetic frequencies or EMF from cell phones may be one of the causes.

The Truth About EMF and the Thyroid

The National Cancer Institute says, "cell phones emit radiofrequency…a form of non-ionizing radiation from their antennas…which can be absorbed by tissues closest to where the phone is held."

They also report that a recent study indicates that when people "used a cell phone for 50 minutes or more, brain tissue on that same side of the head absorbed more glucose than did tissues on the opposite side of the brain." In essence, cell phone radiation is frying brain tissue.

Studies show that electromagnetic frequencies from cell phones are responsible for the heating effect that happens to human tissue; the same heating effect that you feel after you’ve been on the cell phone for an extended period.

Haaretz Newspaper reports that in an Israeli study conducted by Silva et al. initial findings show a connection between radiation from cell phones and thyroid cancer. Conducted in Beilinson Hospital at Tel Aviv University, scientists in the study collected human thyroid cells from healthy patients and exposed them to radiation that simulated the electromagnetic radiation given off by cell phones. Surprisingly enough, irradiated thyroid cells propagated at a much higher and substantial rate than the non-irradiated cells in the control group. A second experiment, using different methods and materials, gave similar results.

Research by Amin et al. from Cairo University and the National Research Centre in Egypt discovered that in a group of employees who worked on their computers most of the day, long term exposure to radiation from their computer screens caused a reduction in T3 and T4 – the hormones produced by the thyroids.

Another interesting study was conducted by Mortavazi et al. (2004) on 77 healthy university students. The students were divided into non-users, moderate users and heavy users of cell phones. The study showed that thyroid function was altered in moderate and heavy users of mobile phones. "This is the first human study to assess the associations between mobile phone use and alterations in the levels of TSH [thyroid stimulating hormone] and thyroid hormones. Based on the findings, a higher than normal TSH level, a low mean T4, and normal T3 concentrations in mobile users were observed. It seems that minor degrees of thyroid dysfunction with a compensatory rise in TSH may occur following excessive use of mobile phones."

A study by Bhargavin et al. (2017) in Indian schools looked at the effects of EMF on 61 students from ages 17-24. The results showed that within 15 minutes of exposure to EMF, "quantifiable effects could be measured in the endocrine glands, nervous system, liver, kidney, spleen, and immune system of healthy teenagers."

Numerous other studies done in rats conclude that low amounts of microwave radiation are enough to permanently alter not only the thyroid tissue but also ovarian, testicular and other types of tissues in laboratory animals. Two noteworthy researchers who did work in this area were Rajkovic and Esmekaya. Rajkovic et al. (2003) showed in his research that exposing rats to cell phone radiation for only three months was enough to damage their thyroids visibly; not only that but even after the radiation was turned off, their thyroids were not able to begin producing hormones after that!

In his research Esmekaya et al. (2010) exposed rats "to simulated 2G cell phone radiation for 20 minutes a day for three weeks," and he found the same results as Rajkovic. That's 2G...what will 5G do?

Eskander et al. (2012) focused his study on a population of people who lived nearby a cell phone base station. In this group of people, he found a significant decrease in several types of hormones in the blood including prolactin and testosterone. The most substantial loss, however, was in the capacity of the thyroids to produce T3 and T4 hormones. As we discussed earlier, the consequence of this condition is hypothyroidism which could result in anything from insomnia to infertility.

Conclusion

It’s hard to dismiss the irony that despite the mounting evidence, the CDC currently says on their website "more research is needed before we know if using cell phones causes health effects.’"

However, to the discerning mind, the evidence is clear. Cell phone radiation, as well as other forms of EMF, are a serious threat to human health. Not only is the science clear that health is affected, but we have an idea of the many specific areas, such as thyroid function, that are under attack.

Therefore it’s important to adopt proactive and preventative measures when using them. This includes the use of Blushield technology, the only active protection available on the market.

Keep the cell phone away from your head (aka your brain, thyroid and more). And make sure you are within the field of a Blushield Portable, Blushield Cube or others, for protection from the EMFs in our modern, civilized life.

EMF is dangerous, that is certain. If you still have any doubts about that, please read our other blog posts, like this one or this one. What do we do about it though? Shouldn’t we block EMF? We get this question from time to time, and we think it is time to publicly address it.

There are many people in the EMF protection community who say that the only way to protect ourselves from EMF is by blocking it. There are multitudes of products on the market designed to do just that. You can drop tens of thousands of dollars making your home a Fort Knox against EMF. There is special metal you can put around your electrical wiring in the walls, there is sheetrock lined with lead, special windows, there are faraday cages, paints, powders, fabrics and more, all designed to block EMF. Do these things work? The short answer is no.

Starting with the simple no...

Whether we realize it or not, we are always in community with others. We go to work, the store, gas station, bank, school, etc. While it is possible to do most of these things online at home, it is not likely that most people do. We leave our homes to do things, to socialize, to engage with our community. All the money you can put into blocking within your home cannot protect you when you are outside your home. There is no EMF blocking technology that can protect you while you are out in the world. You drive in and out of range of innumerable cell phone towers and WiFi signals, as well as others’ cell phones, radio waves and constant satellite signals. And if you have a relatively new car, you are riding in an EMF box. There is no way you can block all of this. It is coming at you from every angle and at different strengths and waveforms. Even if you a chainmail suit while you run your errands, it will not block the harmful effects of EMF.

On to the more complex no…

If you know anything at all about Blushield, you know that our EMF protection works using complex, multi waveform, native frequencies embedded in scalar fields. The scalar energy field is the basic blueprint of the universe. Scalar fields can be produced intentionally or unintentionally. Blushield produces intentional scalar fields that resonate with the sympathetic nervous system of the organism. Mankind produces scalar fields unintentionally as a component of EMF. These don’t resonate and are therefore harmful. The intentional scalar field of Blushield allows the organisms’ sympathetic nervous systems to function normally in any EMF environment.

Standard methods of shielding will not protect you from the ambient EMF. In some cases they even work as an amplifier and can be dangerous in areas of high EMF. Even within a faraday cage, the scalar component of the harmful EMFs penetrate. There is no metal or concrete that can block the scalar field. So as much as we try to block EMFs, they will always come through on the scalar field and this nonthermal aspect of EMF is what makes them harmful to your DNA. This is why it is important to protect yourself on the cellular level with Blushield.

Blushield provides deep, cellular protection from all types of EMF, even 5G. It is the only form of EMF protection that mitigates 93% of all EMF, both in humans and animals. Our animal studies prove that the effects of Blushield are not psychosomatic. There are other things you can do to further protect yourself, like turning off WiFi when not in use, not putting your cell phone up to your head, refraining from putting your iPad or laptop directly on your lap, etc.. There is no such thing as competition when it comes to EMF protection, only what works and what doesn’t. Get EMF protection that puts a blanket of protection over your cells, your home, your family.

This video features Frank Clegg, the former longtime president of Microsoft Canada. Now, he is co-founder and CEO of the non-profit organization, Canadians for Safe Technology.

His purpose of speaking to Royal Society panel is to make a public request to hold Health Canada accountable to a more open and transparent process of scientific research and evaluation on its current update of Safety Code 6. Some of the key points made in this video include:

• As president of Microsoft Canada, he witnessed the potentially harmful effects of technology
• Code 6 deals with smart meters in homes and business, Wifi in schools, placement of cell towers and antennas, baby monitors, game consoles, and cell phones/tablets
• There are no studies that prove conclusively that the current limits of Safety Code 6 is safe for 24/7 exposure
• It is suggested that manufacturers need to ensure the safety of the products
• There are peer-reviewed studies that show harm to humans of wireless radiation that are significantly below Health Canada’s Safety Code 6
• Swedish researchers published a study in the International Journal of Oncology that correlates wireless technology use to malignant brain tumors
• American Association of Environmental Medicine, American Academy of Pediatrics, International Society of Doctors and the Irish Doctor Environmental have spoken out against updated safety limits in Safety Code 6
• This exposure is compared to the harmful nature of tobacco, asbestos, some prescribed medications
• Wireless radiation can cause electro-sensitivity with symptoms: increased headaches, insomnia, pain, rashes, memory lapses, and dizziness
• Some people are more affected by wireless microwave exposure than others
• Because of the potential harm of radiation, Belgium banned children’s mobile phones
• Safety Code 6 allows cell towers and devices to emit radiation at levels that are 100 times more than allowed in China, Russia, Switzerland and elsewhere

The scientific evidence that there is harm from electromagnetic radiation is overwhelming. Those that don't see that are either ignorant, meaning they just haven't looked, or are being paid by industry insiders, as was the case of many of the people behind these Safety Code 6 changes.

As the president of Microsoft Canada, Frank obviously wasn't against technology. But there is good technology, bad technology and many that are somewhere in the middle. Much of our modern technology has the downside of emitting harmful non-ionizing radiation.

But other technology, such as found in Blushield devices can help to mitigate this. Unlike other supposed EMF protection products, they do not block EMF. Instead they emit their own signal, one that is created in a way that supports human health and cellular communication, that mitigate the negative frequencies these other devices emit.

And if you want more, here's another short clip with Frank Clegg where he shares how little of this modern day technology actually makes its way into his home.

"This is the greatest environmental and safety threat of our time."
-Kevin Mottus

The question is can we actually fight to stop EMF pollution from getting worse on a political and industry level?

Well, there are many people that are aiming to do just that, specifically fighting to stop 5G from rolling out with many more small cells being added to our cities.

What you'll see in the video is an example of that from just a couple months ago.

(And because the industry is so powerful, able to subject "science" to it's whims, there's a real good chance that doesn't happen. That's why we believe Blushield technology is going to become even more essential in the coming years.)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljLynbr5iPc&feature=youtu.be

Kevin Mottus, of the CA Brain Tumor Association spends his time educating legislators regarding the biological health effects of wireless radiation. His team includes cancer epidemiologists, toxicologists, and cellular biologists. He presents the following information:

• FCC doesn’t not have a Health Department that studies the health effects from wireless technology
• New Verizon Wireless TV ad advertises 5G where wavelengths can travel 3,000 feet. He calls for caution to make sure human beings and other living things won’t be affected.
• The brochure from the Verizon Wireless insurance says they do not cover emissions or pollutants emitted by their wireless technology. They define wireless radiation as a pollutant in their printed language.
• Calls for wireless companies to go on record about their devices being safe with no known health effects, because their printed material suggests otherwise.
• He suggests the community be involved in legislature regarding wireless technology because it is bothersome for some California residents as more wireless technologies are being installed in very short distances from their residences.
• No wireless device is required to have safety tests on antennas or any other wireless emissions for health effects. They only test and have a thermal guideline which only guarantees a person doesn’t get burned by the phone or antenna.
• He points out that wired fiber-optics are a safe alternative.
• Calls for State Representatives to speak on behalf of residents to require better solutions from wireless companies.
• A report from the Army on millimeter waves with 350 studies, shows clear biological effects below our thermal safety guidelines. Some of the subjects of the reports were aware of the effects because it effects the skin, nerves and eyes.

Delores Bushong, Public Witness:

• The radiation also effects the health of trees
• Trees can not be planted with wireless towers and poles because they compete for space. Cell towers will continue to take up more space for trees.
• What is the point of putting up more towers if these can transmit over 2,000 feet?

Linnea Warren, Public Witness:

• Suggests 5G is a buzzword and that companies do not know how the technology will be implemented yet, despite already advertising for it.
• "Insider's always joke that the first generation technology is only for suckers."
• 5G will allow lots of data to be transmitted over high-frequency radio waves that have been used for weapons but not for communications because the signals are easily corrupted by walls, trees, rain, etc.
• Antennas will need to have direct access which could mean more towers needing to be built.

Kevin Mottus comes back at the end:

• The only ones that want 5G is the industry itself. 4G may be a better option for the "internet of things".
• Other countries have acknowledged that wireless signals cause cancer and other serious diseases by setting more restrictive exposure laws than the U.S. has.
• 5G and its millimeter waves may have more limitations than 4G. 5G also requires greater power than 4G, and as you increase power it can increase the amount of biological effects.
• The 5G transmitters could collect info on consumers wirelessly, because wireless transmissions are easily hacked. So cybersecurity is a concern.
• Dr. Beatrice Golomb from California, who's an expert in electromagnetic radiation health effects wrote a letter regarding the rollout of small cells and she cited 360 scientific citations pointing to the biological and health effects. Dr. Beatrice is a current professor expert in the field.

What is EMF sensitivity? How does this differ from EMF hypersensitivity?

Since the prefix hyper- means extreme or excessive, it's an indication of a greater degree. Not a black and white thing, but more of a sliding scale.

Really the difference between EMF hypersensitivity and EMF sensitivity is in the level of impact as well as the timing of the effects. Because we're all human, with the same biology more or less and same cellular structures, EMF's are definitely affecting us all. It just isn't necessarily to a level that is consciously notable for many.

In the video (and transcript) below, Building Biologist Oram Miller discusses his experience in the field, symptoms of EMF sensitivity, as well as how this can be related to chemical sensitivities.

Oram Miller on EMF Sensitivity

Oram: My name is Oram Miller. I'm a certified building biology environmental consultant, BBEC, based in Los Angeles, California, working with clients throughout Southern California and nationwide. I am trained and have experience in the full range of building biology work, which is looking at all the sources of toxicity in the home, including out gassing from building materials, mold, chemical out-gassing, as I mentioned, natural gas, lead, asbestos, radon, and electromagnetic fields, which is what I focus on now.

Speaker 2: And, when you say you work nationwide, you could do that by telephone, I guess. How does that work?

Oram: Yes. About 15 to 20% of my clients are people who I've never actually met face to face because they live outside of the state of California or outside of Southern California and I work with them over the phone and through Skype and email over multiple consultations and they become my eyes and ears. They get the meters and instruments that I recommend to them to take readings under my supervision and then I formulate a mitigation plan for the EMF's that we find that they can take care of as well as bringing in a trade's person when necessary, an electrician or a plumber. And this is assuming that they don't have building biologist in their local area who I can...

Speaker 2: Which many people don't at this point.

Oram: Well, yes, but the number's growing fortunately, but there are many people who call me who don't have a building biologist near by. That's true. Just want to mention that the opinions I give are mine and don't represent the official position of the building biology profession. Those symptoms can include a whole range of different things that happen to people. Headaches, chronic fatigue, brain fog, difficulty concentrating, difficulty sleeping, memory loss, numbness and tingling, ringing in the ears. These are all the classic symptoms of electrical hypersensitivity or sensitivity to some of the EMF's.

Speaker 2: So, those things can be caused by a lot of things. How do I know that I've got an EMF problem?

Oram: That's a good question. The answer is trial and error. In other words, noticing that when you're in the presence of some of these fields or devices that are known to produce these fields, you feel worse and then when you move away from them, you feel better.

Speaker 2: So, I will have an instant feeling or relatively quickly when I'm exposed?

Oram: Well, that's also a good question. Most people who are electrically hypersensitive do notice that these symptoms within minutes or even quicker than that. Others, it takes time for the symptoms to develop. Honestly, there are many people out there who don't know that they're sensitive to these fields and mold and chemical, or sensitivity to chemicals in a home, whether it's cleaning supplies or paint or any other sources of out gassing, can also have these same symptoms. So, there is some cross sensitivity to them. We just call it environmental sensitivity and many of the people that we work with who are electrically hypersensitive or EHS, are also multiple chemically sensitive, MCS. There's a lot of cross sensitivity and there are many people in the population who have various nondescript chronic ailments that are not debilitating. They can still function, but they're there in the background that are from these devices. Cell phones, these tablets, smart meters, electric fields and magnetic fields in the home, that go undetected and they don't make this link, although they are seeing this link in other countries, the doctors are, but not here. So, these people don't know that they have that as a source and their doctors don't know because nobody really talks about it here in this country.

Speaker 2: Right. So, I might want to eliminate some chemical issues before I really zero in on the EMF to make sure, like you say, there's no fresh paint or some kind of cleaning solvent or something going on?

Oram: Right. Now, the people who do come to us, who find us, have researched this because there is information on the internet about these sensitivities, both electrically and chemically induced. The thing is, these people just tackle all of it at once and, if they go to the websites for the building biologists, the website for our profession is hbelc.org and my website is createhealthyhomes.com, then you can read about these symptoms and what we do about them, what we identify in homes and how we mitigate that and see and read about the experiences of other people who have these sensitivities who have had one of us come and do an evaluation or they've implemented these recommendations on their own and they've noticed improvement.

Speaker 2: And if I'm able to say, "Oh my gosh. My wifi router might be hurting me.", and I shut it off, how soon would I see some improvement or notice that that's helping?

Oram: Many people who are electrically hypersensitive do notice an improvement within the first few minutes. For some, the ill effect that it creates lingers and they may not notice improvement until the next day. It just depends on how sensitive they are.

Speaker 2: So, give it day or two, clean up some things, give it a day or two, and see how you feel before you're sure?

Oram: Well, here's another way of looking at it. What I say to my clients is, we as building biologists cannot guarantee to any particular client that the work that we do, in identifying and mitigating the elevated levels of electromagnetic fields that we find, will ameliorate or eliminate your symptoms. We can't make that claim because there could be a number of factors that cause the symptoms that the person has. What I have realized over the years, that I can safely say to a client is the following. To the degree that their symptoms are due to the elevated levels of electromagnetic field that we find, and to the degree that the person can follow through on the recommendations that my profession teaches us to recommend to people to reduce and eliminate these fields. That is the degree to which they can expect improvement.

*****

I hope you've found that helpful in understanding a bit more about EMF sensitivity and what you can do about it. You'll find a wealth of information on Oram's website as for what you can do to have a healthy home both as this relates to EMF's and other environmental factors.

There's a whole lot you can do as far as protecting yourself from harmful environmental factors. You should absolutely be taking these steps...

AND, what if we could use EMF's in a way that actually supported our biology? One of the best ways to help protect your home by providing helpful, active and coherent fields is with Blushield technology. Blushield is the only "EMF Protection" on the market the works in this way.

A couple weeks back we posted a frightening video of Barrie Trower discussing how WiFi and other EMF's may cause worse damage to your children's children through damaging egg cells.

We recently came across a court document where Barrie was testifying against Portland public schools that wanted to install WiFi in the schools, which he was fighting against. That court document can be found here.

Feel free to read or scan the 26 pages yourself, but I'll sum up about one page of key points for you here. First off, know that Barrie Trower's credentials are extensive. They include degrees in research and physics, with a specialization in microwaves, and working in microwaves for the military.

Here are just a few of the stand out points he refers to:

• "To my knowledge, 'microwave’ or ‘radiowave sickness' was first reported in August 1932 with the symptoms of severe tiredness, fatigue, fitful sleep, headaches, intolerability and high susceptibility to infection."
• "By 1971, the US Naval Medical Research Institute (NMRI) referenced 2300 research articles listing in excess of 120 impairments and illnesses attributed to radiofrequency and microwave radiation."
• "[E]xtracts from published US Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) Documents confirmed the NMRI research and stated: 'If the more advanced nations of the West are strict in enforcement of stringent exposure standards, there could be unfavourable effects on industrial output and military functions.'".
• "I wish to comment on the telecommunication industry’s own research...Dr. Carlo explained how he was commissioned by the mobile industry to conduct research on its products. His study involved 200 research doctors and 15 epidemiological studies (1993-1999), at a cost of 28.5 million US dollars. ‘Our data showed increased risk to children, concerning tumours, genetic damage and other problems,’ explained Dr Carlo. He continued, ‘my results were suppressed by the telecommunications industry.’"
• "Notwithstanding industry’s attempts to influence research, even their own studies continued to find adverse health effects. One example is a worldwide epidemiological study (commissioned by T-Mobile, on its own product) that concluded, ‘On the cellular level, a multitude of studies found the type of damage from high frequency electromagnetic fields which is important for cancer initiation and cancer promotion.’"
• "The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommended that electromagnetic radiation (which includes WI-FI radiation) be classified as a ‘probable human carcinogen.’"
• "An international study of schools near cell towers or with a cell tower on school premises published a list of impairments and illnesses amongst staff and students, finding with large numbers of cancer clusters and other illnesses."
• "Listing and referencing all such epidemiological studies would be too extensive and repetitive for this article; suffice to say, by 2006, it was reported that 80 percent of the extant epidemiological studies on the WHO database list symptoms from microwave sickness, including up to fourfold increase in cancers from low-level microwaves."
• "On May 6, 2011, the European Parliament was presented with a report recommending that wireless networks and mobile phones be totally banned from schools on health grounds."
• "Professor Adey, a Fellow of the US American Academy of Scientists and a distinguished visitor of the Royal Society of Medicine said of his own research, in parallel with similar studies in Russia in the early 1980s, that they showed that radio frequency and microwave radiation affected enzyme systems that regulate growth and the division of white blood cells."
• "The Health Council of the Netherlands Radio Frequency Radiation Committee says in its 200 page 1997 report, concerning frequencies of 300 Hz to 300 GHz: 'The experimental data indicate that the effects of EM fields occur at lower power densities when the object is exposed to pulsed electromagnetic fields.’ In other words, you will get impairments and illnesses quicker if the microwaves are pulsed."
• "Professor Salford at Lund University in Sweden has shown in his work in the year 2000 that pulsing can alter the permeability of the blood/brain barrier in rats. This would reasonably occur in human brains as well, and could have profound effects on brain function."
• "WI-FI in a classroom is more powerful energy than having a cell tower 300m away. It makes no sense to have WI-FI in the class, especially where cell masts are disallowed."
• "I have always predicted that any school that allows itself to be 'bathed' in microwaves from whatever source will see its sicknesses rise and behaviour fall. I have received many phone calls to confirm this."
• "A study has been carried out on children using an ordinary microwave transmitter, a cell phone. What it found was that after just two minutes’ use of a cell phone, the children had their natural brain waves disrupted for up to two hours thereafter. This is called long-term potentiation, and it can last up to six weeks."
• "I believe the most important research I have read is from Dr. Goldsworthy...[who] not only shows the mechanism by which microwaves disrupt cells, but also predicts that a genetically damaged sperm and egg can lead to mutant offspring."
• "In Sweden, it is published that 3.15 percent of its population is medically recognized and registered as being handicapped from electro-hyper-sensitivity. This number is comparable in California and it is believed to be similar in Australia. The Irish Doctors’ Association believes this figure may actually be as high as 15 percent."
• "[I]t must be stressed that a long-low exposure can be more dangerous than a short-high exposure."

There's also what he pointed out as far as the Russians microwaving the US Embassy! But we'll save that topic for another time.

This and much more was said to do one thing, keep WiFi out of school and out of children. And really the solution could barely be easier:

"There is a simple solution, use a cable and a plug or fibre optic cable to deliver the Internet."

With this in mind, perhaps you want to do away with your own WiFi too?

At the very least get some protection with Blushield. For your home a Blushield Plugin or Cube are great. For something like a school, an Ultra is ideal.

And when you're on the go make sure you have your Portable with you at all times. WiFi is everywhere so even if you get rid of it, others won't be doing so anytime soon.

We hope to bring you even more research in the future proving just how Blushield works to dispel those negative symptoms of electromagnetic sensitivity, as many of our happy customers are finding.
