It was recently announced that the Starlink 5G satellite internet service by SpaceX will begin full, global commercial service next month (August 2021). The Starlink satellites have been consistently deployed into low Earth orbit since May of 2019, when the first 60 operational satellites were launched. Sixty satellites are being launched at a time, about every two weeks, with the goal being over 1,500 satellites in low Earth orbit by the time full service begins in August.

They aren’t nearly finished, however. The FCC already approved the launch and operation of 12,000 Starlink satellites, and just recently approved an additional 30,000! This is on top of one million Earth-based satellite uplinks (ground hubs) to connect the radiation beams from the spacecraft to ground users!

All of these antennas combined will result in a massive increase in radiation, mainly focused towards areas with “poor internet service”, a.k.a. rural areas, wilderness, and remote islands and forests. These remote, pristine reaches of the Earth have become rare in their purity and beauty, and soon even these sanctuaries will become infused with manmade, biologically harmful frequencies.

Ironically, the target clientele for this satellite service are those with poor internet access who live in rural areas. Many of these people have specifically chosen to live away from cities because they do NOT want to live in a radiation soup, and moved to a rural area with no coverage or poor coverage specifically to find peace of mind and heal their bodies.

The Starlink satellite service has been in the beta test phase for ground users interested in receiving high-speed satellite internet service for almost a year now. There are currently over 70,000 active beta testers in 12 countries. More than half a million people have already put down a deposit for the full service when it’s officially activated next month.

Will satellite service activation greatly increase EMF related symptoms?

The question we need to be asking now, is will the activation of 5G satellite service from space greatly increase EMF related symptoms in sensitive individuals, and possibly even cause symptoms in others who weren’t previously sensitive to EMFs?

Based on the level of magnitude of service coverage planned, with more than 5 megawatts of combined power focused into millions of powerful beams, it is likely that this occurrence will amplify EMF and 5G related symptoms of illness.

Just like ground based 5G service, these 5G satellites will use phased array antennas and beamforming, allowing a multitude of focused beams to strategically bounce off objects to quickly reach their destination devices. The 5G satellites will operate in a higher frequency spectrum than the currently operational ground 5G antennas. Most ground based antennas do not currently exceed 28 GHz (gigahertz), with most being half that or even lower (6-18 GHz seems common). The satellites will operate between 12 GHz and 75 GHz, which is moving into the true millimeter wave range.

For a greater understanding of how 5G works and what risks it poses to our health, you can read our previous article focused specifically on 5G:

5G Explained and What It Means for Health and Humanity

A primary concern is how millimeter waves have a particular affinity for sweat ducts on human skin. It has been shown that these sweat ducts actually act as helical antennas for millimeter wave radiation, channeling it deep into the body. With the way the radiation from these phased array antennas will bounce off objects en route to the receiving antennas, the more devices that begin to utilize the satellite service, the more it is possible that these powerful beams will unintentionally cross paths with unsuspecting human bystanders.

Depending on one’s sensitivity level and the power of the beam, it may even cause a slight burning sensation of the skin, because the skin contains a large concentration of nerve endings. The military owns a Directed Energy Weapon for crowd control which utilizes 95 GHz millimeter waves to cause an intense burning sensation on the skin, causing rioters and protesters to disperse reflexively. This weapon uses much higher power than 5G antenna beams, but the frequencies themselves are close to the same, so the antenna beams could cause remnants of the same type of symptoms. The antennas may even have worse effects over time than the weapon, due to more continuous or repeated exposure.

Even more significantly than direct contact with a 5G satellite beam is the way all these frequency beams are going to affect the ionosphere of the Earth itself. The ionosphere of the Earth holds a very specific and delicate electrical charge, which holds the balance of all life on Earth. In ways we are just starting to understand, humans and all other life forms rely on this natural electromagnetism to hold and maintain the complex symphony of life on Earth.

What needs to happen is close and detailed monitoring of the electrical properties of the ionosphere as this satellite service begins, to see how it changes, and how all life on Earth is subsequently affected. If this is being monitored and something goes awry, these satellite "constellation" companies should be held accountable.

Due to serious concerns about the brightness and reflectivity of the satellites and how this may considerably impact astronomy, SpaceX is reportedly now working with astronomical organizations to make changes to the satellites that will hopefully lessen the impact on the night sky. Also, due to the concerns many scientists have about adding tens of thousands of satellites into low Earth orbit causing collisions that result in innumerable levels of space debris, there are changes being made to decrease this possibility, as well.

If all the companies launching these satellites are willing to take these concerns into consideration, the monitoring of the ionosphere of the Earth absolutely needs to be considered, as well!

The truth is, this is a brand new experiment, and all living organisms on Earth are the test subjects. We do not currently know how extensively the addition of these high powered, high frequency satellite antennas will affect humans, animals, insects and plant life.

SpaceX/Starlink CEO fully denies radiofrequency radiation harms

Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX (which controls the Starlink satellites), recently publicly denied any harm from radiofrequency radiation, in an absurd and fantastical statement.

On a podcast where he was a guest, he was asked for his thoughts about the widespread concerns about the harms of cell phone and radiofrequency radiation. Regarding 5G, he says, “don’t worry about it.” Then he literally states that if he had “… a helmet of cell phones strapped around my head, and around my nuts, I would not worry.” Then, “phones are not causing cancer, it’s not a problem.”

He goes on to explain that the people who are concerned that cell phones are harmful are thinking of “nuclear bombs”, and confusing these ionizing radiation sources with cell phones. This is a diversionary tactic, as almost everyone who is concerned about cell phone radiation already knows the difference between ionizing and non-ionizing radiation. The thousands of studies on the harms of cell phones were all done specifically on non-ionizing radiation, which contrary to mainstream belief, results in its own type of cell damage through distinct mechanisms that are related to, but not the same as, the damage from ionizing radiation sources like nuclear bombs.

These tactics sound exactly like the ones the FCC and telecommunications companies have been using for decades. They never admit that there’s “possible” harm, they never say (in the spirit of inquiry and objective truth seeking) “we will explore the possibility”. In fact, the more incriminating studies that are published, the more they deny any harm at all, in an absolute and grandiose fashion. They are now literally denying thousands of studies showing harm from RF radiation, including DNA damage and cancer, and dismissing the over 70 active lawsuits against the FCC and telecoms alleging that their technology caused brain cancer in the lawsuits’ plaintiffs and their loved ones.

What do all of these staunch deniers of radiation harm have in common? They all make very large amounts of money (millions or even billions of dollars) off of the technology causing the harm. There is no way they will admit that their own products are harmful, no matter how much evidence indicates with certainty that it is. Meanwhile, thousands of scientists and doctors who have no skin in the game financially are alarmed by the results of the ever growing body of science showing a wide range of biological harms, and just want to see the truth publicly admitted so that people sick from radiation can seek solutions and become well again.

What can we do now?

These satellites have already been launched into space, and it seems that this high speed internet-from-space will be unleashed on a large scale, whether we want it or not. The 5G ground antennas have already been built, and are already providing service to 5G enabled phones, and other devices. It is already happening.

What can we do? We need to seek peace of mind, find an inner wellspring of hope and faith in an eventual positive outcome, and to protect ourselves and our families during this time of extreme level experiments on humanity and the Earth.

Keep as much distance as you can from unnecessary sources of radiation, and use your Blushield. If you are specifically concerned about the higher frequency range of high band 5G (above 40 GHz), the Premium devices are designed to help the body (and other living organisms) regenerate from the intense effect of high band and close range 5G exposure. Know that your Blushield protected area is also a sanctuary for your pets, and the wildlife around your home, including migratory birds, bees, butterflies, and healthy soil bacteria.

Spread the word about what is happening to everyone you know, including local politicians, so that they can become aware of the seriousness of this issue and begin to shape policy in a way that could eventually change humanity’s path for the better.

The most important thing of all is to focus on strengthening your own biofield, through heart-centered spiritual/religious practice, laughter, love, friendship, high quality healthy food and water, and by surrounding yourself with coherent frequencies from Blushield, uplifting music, and taking frequent trips into nature!

Among the civilized world, many people are feeling excited by the many possible applications of 5G wireless technology, and how it proposes to make our lives easier and better. From numerous automated smart devices that are designed to fill up our houses and act as tiny robotic servants (including smart ovens, doorbells, thermostats and even beds!), to the wider societal applications of self-driving vehicles and augmented and virtual reality, companies and creative individuals are all jumping into the game with ideas of their own on how they can take advantage of 5G services to create and profit from new types of technology.

An unusual and unlikely application is being explored at large scale dairy cow farms. Apparently, dairy cow farmers are having a difficult time keeping up with the many daily tasks and needs of the herd, including timely milking and feeding, and monitoring the health of each individual cow for signs of disease.

A herd of dairy cows in England have been volunteered to be an experiment in how 5G connectivity can change the daily operations of a farm. Each cow wears a 5G-connected collar, which interacts with an automated robotic milking system. When the cow feels the pressure of milk building up, they can enter machine gates that automatically open for them, and the automated milking device, which recognizes each individual cow, will latch on and milk the cow as the cow munches on food as a reward.

Each cow also wears a 5G-enabled ear tag that monitors their health, and can instantly transmit signs of distress. Among other technologies the farm is experimenting with are “automated brushes that rotate when the cow rubs up against them, sensor-operated curtains that open depending on the weather, and a smart feeding system that automatically delivers food in the barn via ceiling-mounted rails.”

The herd is a total of 180 cows, but only 50 of them are fitted with these smart devices. We would be very curious to see how the health of these 50 cows, in the short and long term, compares with the other 130 that are not wearing these wireless radiation emitting devices.

However, due to the narrowly focused goals that these types of experiments are done for (and fervent and pervasive belief that 5G can only be a good thing), it’s extremely unlikely that any negative health effects on the cows exposed to the radiation will be reported, or even recorded.  

Dairy cows are vulnerable to negative effects from wireless radiation

Just like all biological life, the bodies and brains of dairy cows (and all mammals) have finely tuned, sensitive bio-electrical fields that control and direct every aspect of their body functions. Therefore, just like all biological life, they are sensitive to and affected by external electromagnetic fields. There have also been studies specifically on the effects of EMFs on cows and their calves.

One study showed that calves that are in close proximity to mobile phone base stations during gestation, especially in the first trimester, are significantly more likely to develop cataracts. 32% of the calves developed cataracts, and 3.6% of them were severe. Another study showed that calves born near a mobile phone base station had a 3.5 times higher risk for heavy cataracts, compared with the Swiss average. This was found to be due to oxidative stress, and there was an association between oxidative stress and the distance to the nearest cell phone mast.  

Blushield testing shows that dairy cows benefit from EMF protection

Several years back, when EMF levels were considerably lower than they are now, but still present in the environment even in rural areas, Blushield did some tests on dairy cows specifically. A Blushield device was plugged into the dairy barn for lengths of time, and then removed for other lengths of time, for the purpose of testing the effects that having EMF protection would have on the milk of the cows. The entire herd was monitored for several months.

When milk is received at a dairy processing plant, it is always tested for something called somatic cell count. This refers to the number of white blood cells in the milk, which can show whether a cow is healthy, or having biological stress (from injury or disease) that’s causing a strong immune reaction. Somatic cells, or white blood cells, are what the immune system produces to deal with stress and fight invaders like viruses and bacteria.

All milk contains some amount of somatic cells, as white blood cells will always be present even in a healthy cow, for health maintenance on a daily basis. However, when you see elevated levels, this can indicate sickness or injury.

The results of Blushield’s somatic cell count tests were significant, and consistent. With the Blushield plugged in, the somatic cell counts recorded were consistently about one-third of what they were with no Blushield present! Cows (and other animals) are not affected by psychosomatic factors, unlike humans, whose beliefs can influence their outcomes. This is one reason animal studies are so powerful.

You can read more about Blushield’s tests on dairy cow somatic cell counts here.

Conclusion

The human obsession with progress at any cost, and the common human flaw of having tunnel vision (not seeing the big picture full effect of one action), often backfires. It may be that wanting so badly to automate the systems at these dairy farms, and monitor their health down to exacting detail in real time, could negatively affect their health and milk production! It’s likely that increasing wireless connectivity is going to have a strong effect on the somatic cell count of the milk of these dairy cows, creating long term health issues in the cows and decreasing the milk quality for dairy consumers.

It’s time that these companies who are so fixated on innovation and progress consider the full implications of their products. As they experiment with these new types of systems, it would be easy for them to test the health effects of the increased radiation exposure as an integrated part of their experiment.

Blushield EMF protection is a great addition to any small or large scale farming operation, as our initial tests with dairy cows and egg-laying chickens have demonstrated. It can significantly increase the well being and quality of life of the animals, as well as increase the quality and quantity of the farm’s production. Animals are often sensitive, and react very quickly, to the presence of a Blushield, as they are purely instinctive in their responses to environmental changes. It’s important that we do everything we can to protect animals (as well as plants and insects) from harmful EMFs, as they are innocent bystanders to humanity’s wireless experiments.

You may have already heard about the link between cell phones and brain tumors, as several of our past articles have covered this topic from various angles. Cell phone radiation has been shown in hundreds of studies to increase a person’s likelihood of developing several types of cancer, including glioblastomas, which are an aggressive and deadly type of brain tumor. The body of science that proves this is increasing each year, and although the government regulatory entities and cell phone companies seem more intent than ever on covering this up, this truth has been trickling out into public awareness anyway.

Did you know there are currently over 70 active lawsuits against the cell phone companies from individuals who got brain cancer from cell phone radiation? Some of these cases have been sitting in the state and federal court system with very little progress for over 20 years! The defendants in these cases, which include most of the cell phone developers and service providers, as well as regulatory agencies like the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) and CTIA (Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association), have been taking advantage of some unethical loopholes in the law to keep these cases from progressing to evidentiary hearings and jury trials for as long as they possibly can, both of which would incriminate them beyond any doubt.

They are just delaying the inevitable. The truth is getting out there, and it won’t stay hidden from the mainstream awareness forever!  

Fatal brain cancer case in Louisiana could change the game

A new case was just filed in April of 2021, for the wrongful death of a 49-year-old Louisiana pastor, who used cell phones for 25 years. He developed an aggressive glioblastoma, which refers to stage 4 cancer of the glial cells in the brain, at the beginning of 2019. After many surgeries and therapies, loss of his ability to live life with any semblance of normalcy to the great devastation of this man, his wife and two sons, he passed away at the end of 2020.

His name was Frank Aaron Walker, and this case is known in short as Walker vs. Motorola, although the defendants include a total of 9 separate but interconnected companies and regulatory agencies who were all complicit in the fraud and deceit alleged in this case.

His wife and sons, who are the plaintiffs in this case, allege that the way Frank Allen Walker used cell phones for 25 years was promoted as safe, normal and completely harmless, and if he had known of the dangers, he would have used cell phones more safely or not at all. In the case, the evidence is laid out that proves that these companies have known for decades about the harms of cell phone radiation, and have continually chosen to hide this knowledge from cell phone users and the general public.

The family is represented by Hunter Lundy of Lundy, Lundy, Soileau & South, LLP, one of the leading personal injury law firms in the country, and by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., chairman and chief legal counsel for Children’s Health Defense (CHD). Both Lundy and Kennedy are also involved in other active cases on the health effects of wireless radiation.

For this case, they chose to file it in a Federal court in Louisiana. Most of the other 70+ active cases that are currently slow going were filed in a State court in D.C., and since the Federal courts are subject to a different process than the State courts, this case could proceed much more quickly than the other cases, potentially even helping to move the other ones forward! To learn more about how this works and the complex legalities of the court processes in general and these cases in particular, listen to this interview with Hunter Lundy by Dafna Tachover of Children’s Health Defense.

The main goal that will likely help all of these cases to break through is to get a solid evidentiary hearing, where expert scientists can explain to the court the large body of science, from older studies to very new ones, proving that cell phone radiation is harmful and can cause brain tumors. There are an impressive number of respectable scientists from all over the world that are ready to do this, as soon as an evidentiary hearing can be organized for these cases. If a jury is allowed to hear this out, there will be no way that these companies can continue to deceive the public, and the truth will come out.

History shows that with toxic products the public has been deceived into believing are safe for decades by corporations and the government, such as cigarettes and glyphosate (Monsanto’s RoundUp), the tide finally turned once one or more jury trials were allowed to happen. Regular people with common sense, when they hear the full deluge of evidence of harm, are no longer deceived by smooth marketing slogans and the attempted debunking of solid science and discrediting of respectable scientists.  

The dirty history of telecom & government dismissal of wireless harms

Most people don’t know how long this has been going on, and how deep the corruption goes. This lawsuit lays it all out, and it is shocking. You can even read this 69-page Walker vs. Motorola case yourself, if you want to get the full story!

The lawsuit details numerous peer-reviewed scientific studies, including U.S. government funded studies, that show that cell phone radiation causes cancer (as well as DNA damage, which is a precursor to cancer). The plaintiffs allege that the telecom industry has misrepresented the scientific evidence, suppressed credible evidence and and has conspired to conceal or alter results of studies.

In several instances over the past three decades, credible scientists were hired by the telecom industry to do studies to “prove” that cell phone use was safe. Every single time, their findings showed otherwise, and in every case, when industry didn’t like the results the scientists gave them, they went to work to make sure the study was never published, and if the scientist refused to be silent and said they would report the results anyway, industry then spent much effort to destroy that scientist’s reputation.

One example was the work of Henry Lai, PhD, in 1994. He was hired by the CTIA, Motorola and other telecommunications companies to conduct studies demonstrating the safety of cell phones. However, the experiments he did ended up showing DNA damage from radiation similar to what cell phones use. They did everything they could to prevent those studies from being published, and when that didn’t work, they tried hard to discredit the scientific reputation of Dr. Lai. To this day, Henry Lai’s industry funded studies are among the best and most incriminating, especially considering the opposite results were expected by those who originally funded the studies!

After Lai’s findings disappointed the industry, they hired other researchers to attempt to disprove these unfavorable results. Again, subsequent research confirmed Lai’s findings, which they also refused to publish.

The science proving wireless harms is still rolling out at a steady pace, and some of the most significant results yet have come out only in recent years, while these cases have been sitting in the courts waiting for action. In 2011, the IARC (International Agency for Research on Cancer) examined the entire body of research on wireless radiation, then decided to classify it as a Class 2B Possible Carcinogen. At the time, they stated that the only reason it was considered “Possible” instead of a “Probable Carcinogen” (Class 2A) was a lack of animal studies. In their estimation, every angle of research, including extensive human epidemiological studies, had indicated wireless radiation as cancer causing, and all they needed was more animal studies to make for a more certain judgment.

Since that time, the two most thorough and comprehensive animal studies have been published. The most notorious is the NTP (National Toxicology Program) study, which was a long term (10 year) and very expensive ($30 million in taxpayer money) government commissioned study. Just like the studies mentioned in this article previously, their stated motive for this study was to “finally put to rest” the idea that cell phones cause cancer, and to prove their safety. The study results showed the opposite, pointing specifically to widespread DNA damage in rats and mice, as well as gliomas of the brain (what Frank Walker had) and schwannomas of the heart.

After seemingly being surprised and even alarmed by the initial findings, spokespersons for these government organizations did a one-eighty and decided not to announce the findings publicly, besides a short explanation on the FDA website downplaying the importance of the study, stating that the animal study won’t apply to humans. This bold and contradictory statement was made after the IARC had announced that they need animal studies specifically, to further prove wireless harms. Also, this study’s design and implementation was flawless, and done with utmost quality and care to ensure that this will apply to humans. You can read more about the NTP study on wireless radiation in our previous article on the topic.

A couple years ago, results from another large, long-term study at the Ramazzini Institute in Italy were published that replicate the results of the NTP study. This study on over 2,400 rodents also found central and peripheral nervous system cancers (specifically gliomas and schwannomas) from exposure to radiofrequency radiation. Scientists aware of the results of both studies are strongly recommending that the IARC (International Agency for Research on Cancer) reclassify radiofrequency radiation from “possible” to a “probable” human carcinogen.

We have all the science we need to show with absolute certainty that wireless radiation is harmful to living organisms. Now we just need the platform to get the information out there and hold these companies liable, which is what a proper evidentiary hearing and jury trial will be for these court cases!  

The telecoms have patents for cell phone safety technology, which they never implemented

Perhaps the biggest insult in all of this is the little known fact that these cell phone companies have already created technology that would make cell phones safer, but this technology was never implemented. They know how to make cell phones safer. This means they also know that cell phone radiation is inherently harmful. If it wasn’t, why would they investigate safety devices? There are at least 14 actual U.S. patents for these devices, applied for and received by the manufacturers. However, they failed to ever implement these upgrades into the design of their phones! It’s easy to guess that the reason for this is because if they add these things in, that would be a public admission of the inherent harm of their products, which they have insisted for decades doesn’t exist. Making cell phones safer now would be admitting that they have been lying for 20-30 years, which would automatically incriminate them for thousands of potential personal injury and wrongful death cases. It would be a mess, and may even put them out of business. So instead, they continue to promote that the way cell phones are commonly used is “completely safe”. Nothing to see here.

Almost all of these patents were applied for in the ‘90s. That is a very long time to be aware of the harms of a product, as well as the solution, and to still do nothing about it! Here are a few examples from the lawsuit text:

• On October 24, 1991, Hitachi received a patent to reduce the cell phone user’s exposure to RF radiation “to prevent the health of the user from being injured.”
• On August 11, 1992, Mitsubishi was issued a patent for a cordless telephone designed to “reduce the effect of an electromagnetic wave onto a head of a human body” by coating the handset with shielding material on the side closest to the user’s head.
• On December 26, 1995, Motorola filed a patent application for an antenna with an electromagnetic shield which results in “little to no radiation directed toward the body of the user.”
• On April 9, 1996, a patent issued to Kevin and Norval Luxon for a shield apparatus which utilizes electromagnetic radiation absorbing materials “disposed about the antenna and portable wireless transmitting apparatus and between the user and the antenna and transmitting apparatus to shield or protect the user from the potentially harmful radiation emissions from the wireless communication apparatus.”
• On July 28, 1998, Nokia received a patent for a shielding layer between the antenna and the user to reduce the electromagnetic irradiation of the user. The application says the cell phone antenna is a “few centimeters from the brain, the hearing organs, and the organ of equilibrium. Although a direct heating effect could be left without further consideration, it has been suggested that modulated RF radiation induces changes in the electrical status, i.e., in the ion balance of nerve cells. A continuous localized exposure to radio frequency irradiation has been suggested to weaken myelin sheath of cells and to eventually lead to an impairment of hearing capability, vertigo, etc. It has been suggested that radio frequency irradiation may stimulate extra growth among supportive cells in the nerve system, which in the worst case it has been suggested could [lead] to a development of malignant tumor, e.g., glioma form supportive cells.”

There are several more examples similar to this. They have known all along about the harms of their products.  

What happens next with the cell phone brain tumor court cases?

As we explained earlier, many of the currently active court cases are happening in the Superior Court for the District of Columbia, which is a State court. The first one was filed in 2001, and since then, 12 of the later cases have been consolidated with the first one for the purposes of an upcoming evidentiary hearing. The first case is referred to, in short, as Murray vs. Motorola, so all 13 consolidated cases are now under that name. The evidentiary hearing for this group of cases is scheduled for July of 2021. The hearing will determine which of the plaintiff’s experts are considered qualified to testify in trial, by deciding if their opinions are based on scientifically reliable evidence.

Until this hearing, none of the other 70 cases in State court will be allowed to proceed. However, the Walker vs. Motorola case that was filed in Federal court in Louisiana in April will proceed separately from these other cases.

Another issue that is holding back the Murray cases is that after a particularly powerful document was submitted this March by the plaintiffs, a 176-page expert opinion by Dr. Christopher Portier, the defendants responded by requesting that no evidence that was not in existence in 2013 should be allowed. Their stated reasoning is convoluted: 2013 was when the first evidentiary hearing in these cases happened, where they approved 5 out of 8 of the plaintiff’s experts, but then the court changed the standard they abide by for expert opinions (from Frye to Daubert), which ended up delaying the progress of these cases by an additional 7 years for various reasons. It’s obvious to us that the real reason they made this request is because they’re afraid of letting Dr. Portier speak, and because some of the biggest scientific blows to the cell phone industry’s safety claims have come since 2013!

Christopher Portier was the director of the National Center for Environmental Health at the CDC, associate director of the National Institute for Health and Environmental Science and associate director of the National Toxicology Program (NTP). He is also a scientific advisor for the World Health Organization (WHO), and was a member of the IARC working group that classified wireless radiation as a Group 2B Possible Carcinogen in 2011.

Those are some pretty major credentials.

Dr. Portier states in the conclusion of his report, “In my opinion, RF exposure probably causes gliomas and neuromas and, given the human and experimental evidence, I assert that, to a reasonable degree of scientific certainty, the probability that RF exposure causes gliomas and neuromas is high.”

Now the court in the Murray cases has to decide whether to allow Portier’s testimony, as well as other post-2013 evidence. With the Walker case in Louisiana, this evidence is already part of the initial lawsuit, so this case is not bound by this same limitation. Therefore, it may progress much more quickly, possibly even paving the way for all the other cases to move forward, as well.

As of June 2021 in the Walker vs. Motorola case, the initial papers have been served to the defendants and they are awaiting a response. We will keep you updated on the progress of this case (and all of the others)!

The truth coming out is inevitable. It is just a matter of time!

When you first decided to invest in a Blushield device, your most likely motivation was to protect yourself and your family from harmful EMFs. With the large coverage area of protection that all of our stationary home units have, one home device will more than cover the area of your entire home (even if your home is larger than average), as well as your front and back yards. Then add a Portable to the mix so you can bring this field of beneficial frequencies wherever you go, and you are golden!

Going beyond the protection that Blushield offers directly to its users and their families, have you ever thought about the influence your Blushield is having on others around you? You are actually doing more than just protecting yourself and your family from EMFs. You have literally become a carrier of biologically beneficial, coherent frequencies!

Whether other people in your life are aware of it or not, they are likely being benefited in some way by their exposure to your Blushield. Many people these days have an “out of sight, out of mind” sort of mindset, and the invisible frequencies their body is being constantly bathed in do not even cross their mind. Or they assume that if it's not ionizing radiation (like x-rays and gamma rays), then it's not bioactive and can't possibly affect them.

Even if they never think about it or don't believe they're affected, and whether or not they are sensitive enough to feel it tangibly, those people are still being affected by the EMFs that are all around us. Our physical bodies are highly complex electrochemical organisms. We emit our own electromagnetic fields, mainly in scalar form (often called “bio-scalar”), and these fractal, implosive, self-generated frequencies interact with and initiate the chemical processes our bodies undergo to remain alive and vital. Even a tiny fluctuation in our personal “energy field” can significantly alter a number of cellular processes.

Just as we are highly responsive to our self-generated electromagnetic fields, we are also extremely receptive to external ones! This includes the natural electromagnetic fields that we have evolved with, such as the Schumann resonances (standing waves occurring between the Earth and the ionosphere that are excited by lightning strikes) and the multi-layered frequency patterns emitted by natural elements like the air we breathe (which has different compositions depending on your climate and altitude), the ocean and other bodies of water, as well as trees, other plant life, and even natural bacterial and mycelial colonies that predominate in any given area!

Likewise, our electrochemical bodies are highly responsive to the manmade frequencies that are now all around us, 24/7. One important and well studied example of this is how our voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs) are affected by external pulse modulated frequencies, overstimulating them and causing them to dump calcium into the insides of our cells, which in itself triggers a cascade of other unintended and inappropriate biological actions. If you want to know more about this, you can read more about Dr. Martin Pall's work on EMFs & VGCCs here.

Due to our innate sensitivity, anyone who knowingly or unknowingly enters a field of biologically beneficial frequencies, such as those emitted by Blushield's nature-based multiple waveform scalar field, will be positively affected in some way.

We have had customers report that their house guests will mention that it “feels peaceful” in their home, or express passing comments reporting increased general well being without attributing it to a known source.

When driving a car while carrying one of the larger coverage range Portables, the behavior of other drivers in your vicinity can be subtly improved, and you may notice less crazy/erratic driving happening around you.

When you're carrying a Portable while out and about, and interacting with any number of people in passing, you may even notice generally improved moods, and a more peaceful and rational demeanor in those around you. In most cases it will be subtle, since their body is just beginning to pick up on the coherent frequencies of Blushield, and hasn't had enough time to go through the full entrainment process that comes with sustained, consistent exposure, like you have. However, even if it's just a subtle and brief influence in someone's day, you never know how this will affect them in the long run. Sometimes even small and brief events can become catalysts for positive change in someone's life!

You Are Protecting Wildlife

One particular “side effect” of using Blushield devices that we are especially passionate about is how Blushield protected zones can create a type of sanctuary for wildlife. In this day and age, when manmade radiofrequency radiation is coming close to blanketing the whole Earth (and will be even more soon when 5G satellite services become fully active), some of the most important life forms on Earth have become unintended casualties.

Bee and bird populations are declining in EMF-heavy areas, especially since 5G has been launched, and trees suddenly become diseased or die when 5G repeaters are installed on or near them. When bees start to die, the majority of our food crops are no longer being adequately pollinated, which results in crop decline or failure. A decline in the bird population can create imbalances in the insect population, which the birds would normally keep in check. A decline in smaller birds starves the larger predator birds like eagles, owls and hawks, and forces them to relocate.

Incoherent, manmade EMFs even affect the bacterial composition of the soil, decreasing beneficial bacteria species and promoting the growth of opportunistic (“bad”) bacteria. This can result in bacterial imbalances in the soil and even in the “internal soil” of our bodies. The effects on soil can negatively influence plant growth, and the effects on our bodies can cause gut problems and affect nutrient absorption and utilization, cause mood/attention/memory issues (via the gut/brain connection), as well as a variety of other systemic issues. After all, our bodies are composed 90% of a large variety of bacteria, and only 10% actual human cells!

When you have a Blushield stationary home unit plugged into your home, especially the larger coverage area Cube and Ultra (or their Premium counterparts), you have a scalar field of coherent frequencies of an almost 600 foot diameter! This very large field will provide coverage quite a ways past the walls of your home, and any living organism residing within this 600-foot sphere will be positively affected. Birds, bees and other important species can take refuge and make their homes in these coherent spaces, raising babies and rebuilding their populations.

Animals and insects are especially sensitive to Blushield's coherent scalar field, since they don't have the deeply ingrained mental programs that humans have that override pure perception and instinct. We have heard many reports of house pets like dogs and cats' health issues, behavior and sleep patterns improving once their owner introduces a Blushield into the home. One of our customers has a small dog that was having seizures, and just a few days after plugging in her first Blushield, her dog stopped having seizures and hasn't had one since! We have heard about horses that suddenly express interest and curiosity when their handlers have a Blushield Portable in their pocket. We have also heard of house plant growth increasing, and a reduction in mold growth in houses that introduced a Blushield.

We cannot say with certainty that any of these results will be seen in all cases, as there are many unrelated factors that strongly influence these circumstances, but we absolutely think Blushield is a helpful influence on all biological life forms! Our Poultry Farm Chicken Study and Dairy Cow Study are great examples of how Blushield positively affects animals. The best thing about witnessing results on animals is that they are not susceptible to psychosomatic factors, i.e. having varied results depending on belief or disbelief.

Conclusion

We still strongly believe in EMF related activism to help save the health of humans and other biological life forms, as there are currently only small pockets of Blushield protected spaces, and the irradiation of the rest of the Earth needs to stop for true global health and healing to occur.

We see Blushield as a tool that each of us can use NOW, while we are fighting the bigger fight. We want to protect ourselves and our families' health and energy levels as well as we can, while we are all working towards positive change on a worldwide scale.

It is one simple action step that each of us can choose to take, and we know that small actions can, over time, ripple out into the greater world and create cascading effects of great change!

Do you know if 5G service is in your neighborhood yet, and if the antennas and repeaters are close enough to your home and workplace to potentially affect your health?

If you don’t know for sure, or if you have just heard vague mentions of 5G coming to your area, is there a way to find out more specifically if 5G is really being deployed in your area yet, how many antenna transmitters are currently installed, and what frequencies the antennas are emitting?

This information actually is available to the public, but you have to know how to find it!

This article is a tutorial on how to do that.

If you read our recent article, 5G Explained & What it Means for Health & Humanity, then you know that 5G builds on current 4G infrastructure so that it can use 4G’s lower frequencies to reach further distances where necessary. Additionally, 5G will introduce “densification”, which means placing new antennas that emit higher frequencies, which don’t reach as far as lower frequencies, at much closer distances (300 feet or less between antennas), adding “density” to the overall number of towers in any given area. The more population dense an area is (large cities and metropolitan areas will have lots of this already), the more antennas and repeaters will be packed into each square mile, to provide uninterrupted service to the vastly larger number of devices that are expected to be utilizing 5G services in the near future.

To assist our Blushield customers in acquiring the appropriate strength Blushield device(s) for the level of EMF exposure of their living situation, we often utilize an online database called AntennaSearch.com.

On the website of this valuable resource, you can enter any address (your home, workplace, or any other address you are curious about) into their online form, and it will search the database for all the cell phone towers and antennas within 3 miles of the address entered.

It even includes very specific details about each tower and antenna, such as the exact distance from the requested address, the height of the tower structure or antenna from the ground, what company or individual owns the tower/antenna, what service it provides, and which frequencies the antennas use.

The information this database provides may have been intended to be used to determine cell service signal strength potential for any given place, but you can also use it to determine your specific, localized EMF exposure from cell tower wireless radiation!

How To Use Antenna Search to Determine Cell Tower EMF Exposure

Go to AntennaSearch.com, and you will see a page that looks similar to the one above. Type your address into the search box – you will have to type in a street address, city and state (zip code optional). Then press “Submit”.

Once the results are processed, you will see a screen like the one above, which says “Results Summary” at the top. Underneath that, it will list the number of cell towers and antennas that are within 3 miles of your address, which in this case is 77 towers and 476 antennas.

Towers are generally large structures where radiation-emitting antennas are placed. The towers themselves do not emit radiation, but this number is important because it indicates the total antenna-containing large structures in your vicinity. Each tower usually contains several (or many) antennas, to support service for several different telecom companies.

Antennas refer to the individual antennas that are on large tower structures (usually several to many per tower), as well as standalone antennas installed on lamp posts, buildings, trees, and other lower structures.

Just viewing and interpreting these results may give you the information you need, especially for choosing one or more Blushield devices that are suitable for your home and workplace. Our Blushield Product Guide covers this in more detail, and explains how to choose a device based on the number of towers and antennas within 3 miles of your address.

If you want to go further and find out how many of those antennas are emitting 5G signals, keep reading!

How To Find 5G Antennas In Your Neighborhood

If you want to know even more about the antennas near your home or workplace, start with the AntennaSearch Report you already generated. Scroll down the list of towers and antennas on the left side of the results page, until you get to the list of multiple and single antennas:

The map on the right side of the page will show the exact location of all the antennas in your local area, within 3 miles of your address. You can enlarge this map to see areas up close by holding down the control (ctrl) button on your keyboard while simultaneously using your mouse roller wheel to zoom in and out. Then you can click on individual antennas for more information. This is a good way to visually explore antenna information. On the map, the location of your house (or whatever address you searched) isn't specifically indicated, but it's right in the middle of the 3-mile radius circle indicated on the map.

The list on the left side of the page is of every single antenna the database found. The first part of the list is called “multiple”, meaning a large antenna structure (usually a tower) with multiple antennas that are often owned by different companies and emit different frequencies.

If you scroll further down the list, there’s a section labeled “single”. These are all the individual antennas placed on their own in various locations that are lower to the ground, such as on lamp posts, buildings and trees, and not sharing a structure with other antennas.

The above image is just the first few single antennas on this particular list. There are 476 total antennas on this list! This example is from a very EMF dense area in Orlando, Florida. The search results in your area may look considerably different than this one.

Now let’s see what happens when you click on a link for an individual antenna listing.

Here is an example image of the details of one of the antenna results. As you can see, this one provides Sprint wireless service, and is owned by a company called Clearwire Spectrum Holdings. The most important piece of information on individual antenna listings is at the bottom, in the box under where it says “Transmitter Frequencies”. This shows how many individual antennas are contained inside the antenna array, and what frequencies they operate at. It shows the frequency results in Mhz, which means megahertz. 1,000 megahertz is the same as 1 (one) gigahertz (GHz). The GHz frequencies are where you start getting into the faster, higher frequency 5G emissions.

Notice that the two frequencies emitted from this antenna are listed as 21,825 and 21,975 megahertz. This can be easily converted to 21.8 and 22 GHz, and definitely indicates a 5G antenna.

Go back through your results and look at a few other antennas. Some may also be in this tens of thousands of Mhz range, which means GHz, which means 5G. Others will say something like “800.685” Mhz. Take off everything after the period, and that’s just about 800 Mhz, which most likely indicates a longer range, lower frequency 4G emission. Note that 5G software can also emit frequencies down in the 400-900 Mhz range, which overlaps the 4G spectrum, but these so-called “low band” 5G frequencies will likely have very similar effects on the body as the current 4G radiation. It is a longer wavelength, lower frequency, which travels further and is somewhat less intense on the body (though still definitely harmful!). When we look for 5G on these lists, we are mainly looking for “high band”, GHz spectrum 5G.

Here is one more example of an antenna result we wanted to show you, because what it indicates is especially interesting, so take special note when you see one like this!

This image shows only the very end of a list of individual antennas contained in ONE antenna array! It contains 160 different antennas on the array, all within the 18 GHz range, each one being sometimes only a few megahertz apart! This is a perfect example of Massive MIMO, which is a unique 5G feature. It allows up to 256 individual antennas on one small array, each sending out individual pulses as soon as any 5G device in the vicinity puts out a request. None of them interfere with each other, because they all use slightly different frequencies. Multiple antennas can respond to each user request, depending on the size of the information packet the device is demanding, making sure that the information is transmitted as quickly as possible with the least possible interference and lag.

It’s apparent that being in the physical vicinity of an antenna array like this could be quite intense on thehat is a TON of invisible information that your body is having to process. If you are within close range of an antenna structure like this, our Premium home devices and the U1 Portable could be a good choice for you.

To read more about how 5G works, including Massive MIMO, be sure to read our recent 5G Explained article!

A Few Final Notes of Importance

When you’re viewing antenna results and looking specifically for 5G antennas, pay special attention to any antennas that are less than a quarter of a mile from your address (0.25 miles), and especially within 0.1 miles. Less than 0.1 miles could be considered “close range” or “line of sight”, depending on the visibility/obstructions in your immediate environment. Since 5G frequencies don’t reach very far, it’s likely that the ones further away won’t affect you very much (if at all), but the close range ones could potentially affect you a lot.

Also, occasionally the Antenna Search database will not be able to locate your address. If this happens, our recommendation is to try another address that’s as close as possible to the original address (use an online maps database to find nearby addresses), such as down the street from you, especially if the address is of a nearby business. If it works, it’s close enough to the intended address where the results will still be relevant.

If the search engine can’t find your address, it may also give you the option of searching results for your city/town in general, or your zip code in general. This will be less specific, but could be good enough if nothing else works.

Overall, this is a really helpful and enlightening tool for you to find out your level of EMF saturation from wireless cell phone tower sources, and the right Blushield device for your living situation and needs.

EMF Spectrum Cheat Sheet

The fifth generation technology standard for broadband cellular networks, commonly called 5G, is on a lot of people’s minds these days. Ever since it was announced several years ago that it would be coming our way, there has been both excitement and apprehension about its proposed benefits and any unintended, unanticipated consequences.

Many people don’t really know what 5G truly is, how it’s different than previous generations of wireless technology, and what its implementation means for humanity and our planet. You may have heard of some of its perks through the extensive marketing campaign that ramped up last year, but may not understand the inner workings. Most importantly of all, the potential deleterious health effects of 5G have started to circulate all throughout the internet, but many do not understand the mechanism of harm upon living organisms, and what they can do to protect themselves.

With this article, we intend to explain 5G in as much detail as possible, without getting unnecessarily technical and missing or diluting the main points.

We will discuss how it’s different, the proposed uses for the technology and the way that many imagine it will change society, the potential downsides and negative consequences of its implementation, the current studies that point towards damaging health effects of extremely high frequencies (microwaves, as well as centimeter and millimeter waves), and what you can do to protect yourself as this technology ushers in huge change to the fabric of society and exposes us to exponentially increased levels of radiofrequency radiation.

The History of Wireless Technology

Let’s briefly cover the history of cellular networks and broadband technology, from 0G to 4G, to provide some background information.

In the 1970’s, the “mobile radio telephone”, which before this point was mainly a large installation in vehicles that required switchboard operators to connect your calls, became a smaller device that was possible to carry with you and no longer required switchboard operators. At the time, this was pretty revolutionary, as I’m sure you can imagine. This is referred to as 0G (Zero G).

In 1981 was when 1G came on the scene. This meant large cell phones that could only make phone calls, but were smaller and more manageable than 0G devices. Like 0G, they still used only analog signals, but were more compact and didn’t have protruding wires, making them more mobile. This new wireless technology meant you could make wireless calls on the go, whenever you wanted, bringing a level of long distance connectivity that began to change the function of human society.

2G standards were reached in 1992. Cell phones became even smaller and more affordable, making the technology more accessible and widespread. This was the beginning of the “mobile phone revolution”. Speeds increased, and text messaging became possible, as it used a combination of analog and digital signals.

3G came about in 2001, and integrated video, data and voice. This was the first time you could access the internet from a mobile device. Wireless devices became even more popular, especially among younger people.

4G standards were announced and begun implementation in 2011. From 3G, 4G has mostly brought with it a drastic increase in speed and bandwidth, making it possible to transfer much more and different types of information, such as video streaming. The term “LTE” stands for Long Term Evolution, which refers to the way they planned to increase 4G capabilities over the following decade. It means that 4G hadn’t reached its potential yet, and had a long way to go to achieve the speeds and bandwidth that was possible for the technology.

4G is still being improved, and it’s actually instrumental as a backbone for 5G technology. This means that 4G will NOT be abandoned as 5G is implemented. Rather, 5G stacks on top of 4G and they work together. This also means that none of the 4G infrastructure will be removed, but they will just add 5G antennas and repeaters along with the current infrastructure, therefore not removing any EMF sources, and actually adding considerably more.

How Is 5G Different, and What Are the Implications?

The actual software for the 5G antennas that are being installed is very different than the 4G software. What are the main differences?

First of all, a much wider range of frequencies is going to be used for 5G. Generally, 4G used frequencies up to 900 MHz. 5G will also use these lower frequencies (even down to 400 MHz) when attempting to transmit signals over very long distances. This is because lower frequencies travel considerably further, and since the waveforms are so large, they also have the advantage of being able to travel around obstructions like trees, buildings and through inclement weather conditions. However, using these lower frequencies that overlap the 4G spectrum will not allow 5G to reach its proposed capabilities. To achieve the speeds that are possible with 5G, much higher frequencies need to be used.

Current “high band” 5G infrastructure (as of mid 2021 when this article was written) is mostly operating between 5 GHz and 28 GHz, with some rare instances of up to 39 GHz. These are popularly referred to as millimeter waves, but they are actually centimeter waves. Centimeter waves are technically 3 – 30 GHz, while millimeter waves’ official definition is between 30 and 300 GHz.

We do not know of any instances where true millimeter waves have yet been utilized for 5G technology, although that is bound to change soon, with some of the 5G satellite companies that plan on activating their services later this year, but we will go more into that later in this article!

Higher frequencies can carry exponentially more data than lower frequencies. The supposed implications for this are capabilities that could change society in big ways. This includes nearly instantaneous movie downloads, extremely fast upload speeds, autonomous vehicles (self-driving cars), and the so-called Internet of Things (IoT).

The Internet of Things describes what are called “Smart” devices, appliances and utilities, which are being released on the retail market in droves. This could mean a video camera with sensors that points at your baby while they’re napping, notifying you when they make enough movement and sound to indicate waking. It could mean you have a wireless oven and a corresponding app on your phone, so you can preheat your oven for dinner on your way home from work. You could have a wireless doorbell that captures video of your visitors and sends it to your phone, letting you see who’s at the door without having to get off your couch. You could even have a “smart” refrigerator that lets you know when you’re out of butter, or even orders it for you without you having to do anything!

The Internet of Things is basically a staff of tiny robotic servants that are supposed to make our lives easier and more convenient. If you don’t like getting too much physical activity or participating in the mundane, manual aspects of life as a human being, you might love this idealized future. If you’re pretty self-sufficient and value the “chop wood, carry water” humble mentality and moving meditation practice of washing your own dishes and turning your oven on manually, you probably just see it as a waste of resources and a pointless invisible soup of wireless radiation permeating the resting space that’s supposed to support your health and well being.

All that philosophy aside, the Internet of Things is one of the main drivers and goals of 5G technology. It will also enable augmented and virtual reality, which certainly could have some valuable uses, one big one being a safe way to train people who are entering dangerous professions like surgeons, truck drivers and pilots. It’s a way for them to physically master the skills beforehand, reducing the likelihood of them endangering the lives of themselves and others due to lack of skill and experience.

However, widespread access to augmented and virtual reality, for the average person, could present serious problems. Once again, this depends on your philosophy of life, and many people are actually excited about the idea of transhumanism, a.k.a. the merging of man with machine. Many people would gladly install their mind into a machine and shed the mortal body, if it meant they could live forever and without the limitations of the natural human organism.

Whatever your philosophy, immersion into a digital and mental life could cause a serious deficiency of the necessities for human health, including physical contact with other humans, time in the outdoors and nature, natural vitamin D production from exposure to sunshine, physical activity, metabolic efficiency and uptake of nutrients. Not to mention the vital but underrated mental “free time” we need to let our minds wander and contemplate existence, without the distractions that come from our overstimulating technocratic world. Even with the current level of digital connectivity we have today, children are spending less time than ever playing outdoors and interacting with real life humans, and more time than ever staring into their smartphones and ignoring their physical surroundings, which is negatively impacting their health and development in many ways.

Other Features of 5G Technology

Getting back to the technical side for a moment, there a few other aspects of 5G technology that work differently than 4G. 3G and 4G cell towers are usually very tall and large, and the emitted signals radiate into the environment around the tower for miles. The signal permeates the air space, and any receiving device within that “cloud” can pick up and utilize the signal.

5G uses an antenna technique called beamforming, which goes along with the higher frequency, much shorter and smaller wavelengths that 5G utilizes. Via beamforming from phased array antennas, these very small wavelengths are directionally focused, depending on where the receiving devices are that are requesting the signal, rather than a cloud that permeates the area. It is so precise that it can even bounce signals off walls (since they generally can’t go through walls), exactly targeting the receiving devices, so that direct line of sight isn’t always required, which increases versatility and usefulness.

The beamforming aspect itself, since it concentrates a beam in a particular direction, could potentially be far more damaging to the health of anyone holding a receiving device (or in the direct path of one), and less damaging to anyone lucky enough to not be in the firing path at that time. As we detailed before, 4G is a “cloud” of radiation, permeating the vicinity and every living organism within that cloud. One may think that in this way, 4G could be more damaging than 5G, since the amount of time within direct 5G firing beams will probably be less overall than the time we spend in the 4G cloud, but the focused intensity of the 5G beams likely more than makes up for it. Additionally, as we stated before, 5G will be built on top of 4G infrastructure, so we will still be exposed to the same 4G, with the added intensity of 5G to boot!

Another feature that 5G brings is called Massive MIMO. MIMO is short for “multiple input, multiple output”, and refers to the nature and function of the antenna arrays on each base station. MIMO is used with 4G, where each antenna array contains between 8 and 12 antennas. With 5G, “massive” is added because there can be hundreds of antennas per base station, up to 256. This is specifically designed for crowded indoor areas where the number of devices demanding data is extremely high, like in sports stadiums, at concerts and in airports. If there are enough available antennas, it’s much more likely a data channel will be available in the exact moment you go to send a text or upload a photo to social media from your phone. Because of the sheer number of signals bouncing back and forth at all times, the beamforming technology explained above is absolutely essential for Massive MIMO to work effectively, without the signals bouncing off each other and canceling each other out.

For 5G to be utilized by receiving devices, like phones and computers, these devices actually need more antennas themselves. This means your current wireless devices won’t work with 5G. You need to buy a new cell phone that’s “5G enabled”, with different software and more antennas that are designed to receive the special 5G signals. All new cell phone models being released now are 5G enabled. If you want a 5G service, you will need a new phone, and likewise, if you want to AVOID 5G, make sure you stick with an older version that doesn’t have 5G capabilities!

We could essentially summarize the ways 5G is designed to improve wireless technology as:

• faster speeds: due to higher frequencies and more antennas available to transmit each data stream
• lower latency: also known as “lag time”, latency is the time it takes for an action to be executed following the instruction
• bandwidth: bandwidth is how large each data channel is, controlling the amount of information sent and received, and the greater frequency spectrum usage of 5G means each channel will be larger
• energy consumption: beamforming is more direct and efficient because it only sends information when and where it’s needed

Millions of Small Cells

The large, looming cell towers of the 3G and 4G days that reach many miles won’t work with the 5G vision, except as supporting infrastructure for long distance transmission. Because the higher frequencies can’t travel nearly as far, and are even obstructed by the atmosphere itself, the antennas need to be almost within line of sight of any receiving device. This means far more antennas need to be installed everywhere to make this a reality. This is called densification. These 5G antenna base stations are called small cells, because they are small, numerous, and low to the ground, compared to 4G cell towers. Because of the densification required to make the technology work in a seamless way, they will be installed on almost anything they can get away with. This includes lamp posts, trees, and top of buildings; indoors on desks, walls and ceilings; and even mobile small cells that are transported by drones to areas of high demand!

This is bringing up some major issues within some local communities who object to the placement of the new antennas. Since the viability of the technology relies on dense antenna placements, the FCC has passed laws and regulations that override the jurisdiction of local municipalities about where antennas are placed. According to their regulations, which are designed to allow the 5G rollout to happen as quickly as possible with the least objections, local areas and their citizens cannot contest the placement of antennas on public property. To expand their coverage even further, they are even trying to override personal and property rights by allowing a telecom to contract directly with a property owner to place a 5G repeater on their house (in exchange for monetary compensation or a discount on their service), without being required to notify neighbors. You can read more about this new rule in our article on the subject: FCC Changes Rule to Allow 5G Repeaters on Private Properties Without Neighbors’ Consent

Security & Surveillance Concerns

One major concern that many people have with 5G and the increase in artificial intelligence (AI) enabled devices in our lives is our security and privacy. This includes both security of sensitive personal information (like credit cards and identifying information) from those who intend to take advantage of it, and privacy from prying eyes into our personal lives.

An automated world could lead to technology that controls access to our basic necessities based on arbitrary standards, like a sort of “social credit score” that communist first world countries like China are already implementing. This could mean that if you say anything dissenting, or not approved by the State, on social media (or even in private email or text messages), the system itself could block your access to international travel, property rental, or even access to food. This may sound far fetched, but many believe that this potential reality is much closer than we can imagine. With the way that 5G is slated to drastically change society in fundamental ways, who is to say that it will always be used for “good” purposes, and won’t ever be an abuse of power by authoritarian governments who want tighter reins to control their citizens with? Just because technology is getting more advanced doesn’t mean that human morality and ethics are getting better alongside it.

Even more immediately realistic (and already happening) is the increased likelihood of the larger numbers of internet connected devices opening up more access than ever to your personal life by hackers. If someone wanted to burn your house down, they could turn on your stove and turn your thermostat all the way up remotely. If someone wanted to break into your house, they could remotely monitor your wireless cameras to study your daily routines and access points.

The truth is, the more of your life that’s on the internet, the more accessible your personal information and actions are to others. No matter how many security improvements are made to a wireless system, someone will find a way around them to get what they want.

Studies on Millimeter Wave Health Effects

In a U.S. Senate hearing in 2019 about the future of 5G technology, U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal asked two Federal Communications Commission (FCC) representatives if any studies have been done on the effects of 5G technology on human health, and if they haven’t been done, if they plan to do any studies. Their answer was basically (and very awkwardly), no, there are no current studies, nor plans to do any studies in the future.

The strategy of the FCC and the telecoms is to rely on the highly outdated thermal-based exposure regulations that were established in 1996, the meager list of industry-funded studies that show no effect on biology, and misinterpreting, downplaying or ignoring several thousand additional studies that DO show negative effects on living biology from microwave radiation.

Obviously, no studies have been done on 5G itself, because 5G has not existed until now. However, there are studies on millimeter waves and their biological effects, because millimeter waves have been used since the 1950s for radar, the ‘60s for radio astronomy and the ‘70s for military applications. Russia has been researching the biological effects of millimeter waves since the ‘70s.

One argument that the industry makes for the supposed “safety” of millimeter waves in comparison to the lower frequencies is because the higher the frequency, the less the frequency will penetrate past the skin. However, this absolutely does NOT indicate safety. Vastly higher frequencies, such as ultraviolet and x-rays, also do not easily penetrate the skin, but everyone knows that an excess of these frequencies can do considerable damage.

The main reason why their argument is invalid, from currently available studies, is because these millimeter waves have a particular affinity for sweat ducts on human skin. It has been shown that these sweat ducts actually act as helical antennas for millimeter wave radiation, channeling it deep into the body. You can read the full study here.

Additionally, skin contains capillaries and nerve endings, and since millimeter waves primarily target the skin (and other surface body tissues), the effects can be transmitted through molecular mechanisms by the skin or through the nervous system.

One way that the military uses millimeter waves, and its implications, is particularly alarming. The military developed a non-lethal weapon that uses 95 GHz millimeter waves to inflict an unbearable burning sensation on the skin, causing the person to immediately move away by reflex. It was designed as a crowd-control method to disperse protesters and rioters. This is a form of Directed Energy Weapon (DEW) called the Active Denial System (ADS). Of course, the beams they use are at a much higher power than 5G will use, but instead of just a couple seconds of exposure, 5G will be a continuous exposure for anyone in the vicinity of an antenna.

Obviously, we don’t know if this low powered, continuous exposure will have similar effects as a high powered exposure that only lasts a couple of seconds, but why should we assume that it won’t have any negative effects? Potential negative side effects of the military weapon include redness of the skin and blisters, and that’s just for brief seconds of exposure. There have been two documented cases of injuries from ADS weapons, both second degree burns that required medical attention. Being targeted by this beam of millimeter waves has been described as making you feel like your body is on fire.

Barrie Trower, a former microwave weapons expert for the Royal Navy and British Secret Service, has extensive knowledge on the subject of microwave radiation. He states that pulsed microwave radiation, which now includes 5G, is considerably more bioactive at lower power levels than non-pulsed radiation. He strongly cautions against allowing children to be exposed to Wifi and cell phones, due to their sensitive developmental stage and the risk of permanent damage.

Doesn’t it sound sensible that we should at least do some more research on these high frequencies, as well as the combined effect of all the RF radiation we are about to be regularly exposed to, before we unleash it on all of society?

5G Satellites

So far we have just covered the ground-based aspect of 5G, which in itself is vast, but this is not even close to all that’s about to change. Several companies in the United States and around the world are in the process of launching tens of thousands of satellites into the low and very-low Earth orbit part of the atmosphere, all designed to provide 5G service from space, especially to rural and low-coverage areas. Even just SpaceX has been approved to launch 42,000 satellites, and up to one million Earth-based satellite uplinks (ground hubs) to connect them to ground users!

These satellites are set to operate up into the true millimeter wave spectrum, from 12 GHz to 75 GHz. This is a considerably higher frequency range than the current ground antennas. The intention to provide coverage to “rural and underserved” areas is concerning, as many EMF sensitive people who have gotten sick from RF radiation have had to move to rural areas to save their health. We currently do not know how much these satellites are going to affect people in the vicinity of 5G satellite service users, or if you will have to be using the service yourself to be affected by it.

There are even more issues with these satellites. One major issue is the massive increase of moving parts within the Earth’s orbit, which will exponentially increase the already high likelihood of collisions. Even one collision between two satellites can create thousands of pieces of “space junk” that circulates through the atmosphere and adds to the already terrible “debris belt” that exists from past collisions. Each piece of space debris, in turn, increases the chances of another collision happening again! Even a tiny object like a screwdriver, orbiting the Earth at an extremely high speed, can render a functioning satellite useless after a collision. Read more about this in our article about 5G satellites and space debris.

Besides this imminent danger, the more satellites and debris we have within Earth orbit, the less access we have to space. This deals a painful blow to astronomy, and even just to any person who enjoys viewing the night sky. Too many satellites in the night sky can brighten it enough to make it hard or impossible to view more distant objects, such as other stars and galaxies. Astronomers are pleading these satellite companies and the FCC to rethink all these satellite launches, voicing warnings of the consequences it will have on space observation and discovery.

An even more serious concern is the unknown effect that this many satellites, emitting their high frequencies, will have on the ionosphere itself. The ionosphere of the Earth holds a very specific and delicate electrical charge, which keeps the balance of all life on Earth. In ways we are just starting to understand, humans and all other life forms rely on this natural electromagnetism to hold and maintain the complex symphony of life on Earth.

How Can Blushield Technology Help?

Here at Blushield, we have been studying and following the plans for 5G for many years now. All our current stationary home and portable devices emit a dual band signal for optimal protection from more intense EMFs like 5G. This updated algorithm (compared to our older mono band products from years ago), which contains an additional microprocessor that emits continuous Phi ratio based frequency patterns, is designed to create a regenerative effect in the body if you’re dealing with close range and/or millimeter wave 5G. Read more here about the Phi ratio and why these frequency patterns are significant when it comes to healing and regeneration.

Close range means you are in direct line of sight of a 5G antenna or small cell, or less than 350 feet. This means you’re more likely to be in the “line of fire” of the 5G data beams at any given time, which can be a source of significant stress on the body.

The design of our current product line is also for exposure to the higher frequencies of millimeter wave 5G, between 40 and 300 GHz. While these frequencies are not currently being widely used, we do know that’s in their future plans, and we do know that the satellites will be operating in this spectrum.

If you are not sure if you’re close to a 5G antenna, or what frequencies your local 5G antennas emit, stay tuned for our next article where we walk you through how to find this information with exacting accuracy.

A couple of decades into the 21^st century has certainly proven to be a very interesting time to be alive. There are so many new elements, unknowns, and rapid changes, and humanity seems to be on the precipice of even larger cascades of massive change. While many are speculating all day long, we honestly do not know whether this change is going to be very good, very bad, or a combination of both. But there will certainly be rapid change in all of our lives and in society at large, even just in this next decade.

Two perfect examples that are just now popping up in the past 1-2 years but are already dominating the landscape of people’s minds and lives, are Covid-19 and 5G.

Covid-19 is extremely mysterious. Those who listen to the mainstream narrative on the evening news think it’s a simple thing with clear cut answers (the answers given to us by the talking head “experts”), but closely examining even the mainstream narrative over the past 1.5 years reveals constantly morphing and contradictory messages on what is true. The topic also triggers extreme emotional charge in people, making it difficult to think rationally or critically about the issue.

If someone were to examine all the available information about this issue, they would see a wide variety of speculation about what it’s all about and what’s really going on. The truth is, none of us really know the whole truth, and it’s important to keep an open, curious mind about what we are seeing and hearing. One thing that’s for sure is that this worldwide crisis, happening during the age of social media and the internet (where all minds can connect to each other in a huge, intensely active thought bubble), has drastically changed all of our lives in a shockingly short span of time.

Another new and unprecedented change is 5G, or 5^th Generation wireless technology. Currently, 5G is mostly an idea, and a marketing term, for a hyper-connected digital future where everything communicates with everything else, and man and machine live together almost as equals. Some consider it the beginning of a potential new era of transhumanism, where man merges with machine. To many people this brings hopeful visions of rising above the weaknesses and misfortunes of humankind, and to many others this possible future sounds like a living nightmare that could easily go terribly wrong in all the ways (just watch a few episodes of Black Mirror to get an idea).

This concept of 5G, followed by the attempted implementation of it, is on a lot of people’s minds. The actual implementation has been slow going. The current 5G frequency spectrum in many areas still widely overlaps the 4G spectrum, since utilizing the higher frequency centimeter/millimeter ranges requires intensive increase of infrastructure density. Antennas and repeaters will need to be less than 100 meters apart to transmit the incredibly fast and high loads of information required to make the world of self-driving cars and the internet of things actually happen. A lot of 5G still operates between 450 MHz and 6 GHz, which is a similar range as Wifi routers and 4G cell phones.

However, cities all over the world have rolled out what they call “high band” 5G, which is considered anywhere over 6 GHz, and up to 28 GHz and sometimes higher. This frequency spectrum is technically called centimeter waves (3-30 GHz), although popularly referred to as millimeter waves (true millimeter waves are between 30 and 300 GHz). They have been able to install enough infrastructure to increase telecommunications performance to a large degree in many dense metropolitan areas, especially in crowded places like sports stadiums, concert halls and airports.

Higher frequency use aside, humanity is using more wireless devices than ever, so our overall exposure levels (even to the lower spectrums) are going way up. This sudden increase in manmade radiation with pulsed, repetitive, oscillating frequencies is now permeating our bodies in a way we have never had to deal with in the history of our species. What are the consequences of that?

Since radiofrequency radiation (and manmade EMFs in general) are proven to negatively effect the immune system, is there any way that these EMFs are affecting our ability to handle a phenomenon like Covid-19?  

Evidence for a Connection between COVID-19 and Exposure to Radiofrequency Radiation

An 18-page research paper published in January, 2021 examines the high probability of radiofrequency radiation (including microwaves and millimeter waves) as an environmental factor that can moderately or strongly impact the immune system (and other bodily systems), and therefore the body’s ability to fight off and recover from Covid-19. They examined the peer-reviewed scientific literature on the detrimental biological effects of RF radiation, and identified several ways in which RFR may be contributing to Covid-19 as a toxic environmental cofactor.

It was noticed that Covid-19 surfaced in Wuhan, China, shortly after the implementation of city-wide 5G, and spread globally, demonstrating a statistical correlation to international communities with 5G antennas installed.

They conclude that RFR (especially 5G, which includes 4G infrastructure densification) has exacerbated Covid-19 prevalence and severity by weakening host immunity and increasing virulence by 6 separate factors.

The abstract of the paper summarizes these 6 methods of interaction between RF radiation, the human body, and Covid-19:

1. causes morphologic changes in erythrocytes including echinocyte and rouleaux formation that may be contributing to hypercoagulation;
2. impairs microcirculation and reduces erythrocyte and hemoglobin levels exacerbating hypoxia;
3. amplifies immune system dysfunction, including immunosuppression, autoimmunity, and hyperinflammation;
4. increases cellular oxidative stress and the production of free radicals, exacerbating vascular injury and organ damage;
5. augments intracellular Ca2+ essential for viral entry, replication, and release, in addition to promoting proinflammatory pathways
6. worsens heart arrhythmias and cardiac disorders

“In short, RFR is a ubiquitous environmental stressor that contributes to adverse health outcomes of COVID-19. We invoke the Precautionary Principle and strongly recommend a moratorium on 5G wireless infrastructure at this crucial time to help mitigate the pandemic, and to preserve public health until governmental safety standards for RFR exposure based on current and future research are defined and employed.”

Let’s unpack these a little bit, to try to better understand what is happening.  

Effects on the Blood

Erythrocytes are red blood cells, which are cells that carry hemoglobin through the bloodstream to deliver essential oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. Both Covid-19 and RF radiation have detrimental effects on the blood. RFR makes red blood cells “sticky” and causes rouleaux formulation, which is a stacking/clumping of red blood cells, which inhibits microcirculation and oxygen transport.

RFR also increases the production of echinocytes, which are “spiky” red blood cells (also called burr cells) with abnormal and dysfunctional cell membranes. The presence of unusually high levels of echinocytes can indicate organ stress (especially in the kidneys), nutrient deficiency, toxicity and free radicals, dehydration / electrolyte imbalance, and any other factor that creates a pathological condition in the body.

RF radiation has also been shown to cause decreased hemoglobin and red blood cell production, inhibition of oxygen utilization, and hypercoagulation.

Covid-19 can also increase rouleaux formulation, echinocyte production, decrease hemoglobin, and can even cleave iron molecules out of red blood cells, which reduces the number of functional red blood cells while these free floating iron molecules cause oxidative stress, tissue damage and hypoxia.

Since both RFR and Covid-19 have similar effects on the blood, the combination of the two could exacerbate and increase the incidence of hypoxia, thrombosis, strokes, and hypercoagulation, compared to a Covid-19 infection that’s free from the influence of RFR.  

Oxidative Stress

Free radical production and oxidative stress is one of the most well studied and established harmful effects of microwave radiation on the body. Oxidative stress itself can lead to many other harmful outcomes, including DNA damage, cell death and cancer. It is a nonspecific pathological condition that indicates the presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS) at a level that surpasses the body’s ability to detoxify and repair the damage they cause. Many harmful environmental factors can cause free radical production and oxidative stress.

Covid-19 inhibits the body’s pathways that naturally reduce ROS levels, which can increase the possibility for immune dysregulation that results in the “cytokine storm” overreactive immune system phenomenon observed in severe Covid-19 cases. In turn, a cytokine storm itself produces oxidative stress, creating a vicious cycle.

“RFR is an oxidative agent with a high pathogenic potential, especially when exposure is continuous.”

Any environmental factor that increases oxidative stress could worsen outcomes and increase morbidity of Covid-19.  

Immune Response

Since the 1970’s, studies on microwave radiation have demonstrated damage to the immune systems of animals and humans. This is another of the most studied and well established detrimental effects of RF radiation. Findings include physical alterations in immune cells, a degradation of immunological responses, inflammation, tissue damage, and autoimmune disorders. Even low levels of microwave radiation have been shown to physically alter the essential cells of the immune system and degrade immunologic responses.

The acute phase of a Covid-19 infection shows many indications of an innate immune response, which is a healthy response to an invader. Severe cases show an overreaction by the immune system, an uncontrolled release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, called a cytokine storm. This can happen if the immune system is under significant stress and is not functioning normally. Cytokine storms can result in cell death, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), multi-organ system failure, and death.

Anything that puts the immune system under chronic stress, such as radiofrequency radiation, can increase the chances of a cytokine storm and a morbid outcome from Covid-19.  

Intracellular Calcium Levels

Dr. Martin Pall’s studies on microwave radiation and voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs) in 2013 were a breakthrough in understanding a primary mechanism of damage to the body from these manmade EMFs. To read more about Dr. Pall’s work that shows how calcium channel blockers mitigate the harm from EMFs, indicating that EMFs cause damage by activating the body’s VGCCs, go here:

Microwave Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs) Shown to Cause Depression & Anxiety

Intracellular calcium is also essential for viral entry, replication and release, and it has been reported that viruses hijack the calcium channels and increase intracellular calcium. Intracellular calcium may be a factor in Covid-19, as a recent study showed that elderly patients hospitalized with Covid-19 had better outcomes when calcium channel blocking drugs were used in their treatment.

Intracellular calcium is involved in numerous biochemical processes, including the regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokine production, as well as blood coagulation and thrombic cascades. RFR exposure may enhance the infectivity of the virus by increasing intracellular calcium, which can contribute to inflammatory processes and thrombosis (blood clots that obstruct blood flow).

Magnesium is a natural calcium channel blocker, so appropriate magnesium supplementation can be a good choice when exposed to RF radiation, especially if you also have Covid-19.  

Heart Disease & Arrhythmias

Both radiofrequency radiation and Covid-19 have detrimental effects on the heart and cardiovascular system. RFR can impede blood circulation, alter blood pressure and heart rate, affect ECG readings, and cause chest pain, heart palpitations and arrhythmias. In severe cases, Covid-19 can damage the heart muscle through direct viral infection or as a secondary effect of immune system overactivation, which is associated with arrhythmias and mortality.

The combination of these two factors puts extra stress on the heart, reducing the chance of a complete recovery.

Conclusion

“This evidence presented here does not claim causation. Clearly COVID-19 occurs in regions with little wireless communication. The evidence indicates that RFR may weaken the host, exacerbate COVID-19 disease, and thereby worsen the pandemic.

This is the first scientific paper documenting a link between RFR emitted by wireless communication devices and COVID-19. Healthcare workers and policymakers should consider RFR as an environmental cofactor exacerbating the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods for reducing exposure to RFR should be provided to all patients and the general population.”

Evidence for a Connection Between COVID-19 and Exposure to Radiofrequency Radiation from Wireless Telecommunications Including Microwaves and Millimeter Waves

Since last year, as the Covid-19 phenomenon changed all of our lives while we are simultaneously being exposed to unprecedented levels of wireless radiation through the installation of 5G, we think that Blushield is more important and relevant to humanity that ever before! It is one powerful way to protect yourself and your family as we navigate through this interesting time full of mysteries and unknowns.

We believe that utilizing tools to stay healthy and adaptable is the key to moving through this time with as much ease as possible, with vitality of body, peace of mind, and faith of heart!

EMF is an acronym for electromagnetic field, which refers to an invisible field that’s created when the combination of electricity and magnetism radiates outward. This occurs in nature in a variety of ways, as a natural byproduct of charged particles interacting with the magnetic field of the Earth. A couple centuries ago, humans figured out how to produce electromagnetic fields and use them for a variety of practical purposes. If you want to find out more about EMFs and learn about the electromagnetic spectrum, check out our article that explains the subject in depth.

The electromagnetic fields that humans produce and utilize are very different in structure than EMFs that nature produces. Manmade EMFs are usually pulsed, repetitive, oscillating frequencies, which can have a totally different effect on biology than nature’s infinitely varied frequency patterns.

As humanity’s use of electronic and wireless devices has increased exponentially over the past few decades, many have wondered if the invisible emissions from these manmade devices are safe for our health. The result of this widespread concern has been a plethora of scientific studies. The majority of the independently-funded studies, and even a surprising percentage of cell phone industry and government funded studies, have shown that manmade electromagnetic fields from a variety of sources can indeed harm human bodies, as well as other living organisms. While the vastly wealthy telecommunications industries (and the government organizations who supposedly regulate them) try to ignore or downplay these studies, they do in fact exist and carry considerable weight.

How Do We Protect Ourselves?

Now that we’ve established that manmade EMFs do harm living biology, what do we do now? How do we protect ourselves from an invisible element that seems to permeate every facet of our modern lives?

As awareness of this issue increases, and more people than ever before are taking responsibility for informing themselves of the potentially harmful side effects of this fairly new element of the human experience, potential EMF protection solutions are popping up right and left. It is wonderful that individuals and companies are creating and offering innovative solutions, so that hopefully we don’t have to sacrifice our health and well-being for this enticing modern opportunity of greatly increased digital connectivity.

We get many questions from people who are confused about all the options out there, wondering which ones are effective and which aren’t worth the hype, and how to get the biggest return on their investment in EMF protection.

We will break down the different types of EMF protection strategies and devices that are out there, so that you can more clearly understand which ones will be right for you, with your unique lifestyle and needs.

The Best Protection Is Minimizing Exposure

Before we even start discussing ways to mitigate the bodily damage caused by the EMFs you’re exposed to, it’s important to understand that the number one way to reduce harm from EMFs is to minimize your exposure to them. In our modern world, this is nearly impossible to do completely, and undesirable to do past a certain point. Almost none of us, even if you’re a huge lover of the wilderness, are going to go live there full time. Even if you somehow manage to do so, the new 5G satellites being launched into space at the current rate of hundreds per month are especially designed to provide service to rural and uninhabited areas.

Most of us need, and want, to live our lives and do our work in moderately to highly population dense areas, around other humans and human activity. We may choose this lifestyle because we enjoy it, or feel that we need to live this way due to our individual life circumstances. It may be a nice thought to live somewhere where there are zero cell towers within several miles of your home, but for most people this is unrealistic. It’s also unrealistic, and undesirable to most people, to never use a cell phone, computer, or drive a car. We shouldn’t have to give those things up to feel good and maintain our health.

That said, there are ways that you can moderately and sensibly reduce your exposure, even without compromising essential or enjoyable aspects of your lifestyle. Here are a few easy and smart ways to reduce exposure that will go a long way in decreasing the stress of EMFs, when cultivated as habits:

• Never talk with your phone held against your head, especially during long conversations. Instead, use the speakerphone setting, or an AirTube headset when you need to talk on your phone. If you’re making a quick call, even just holding your phone a couple inches further away from your head (so you can still hear the caller and talk into the microphone) will make a big difference in how much radiation is reaching your head.

• Never carry your phone against your body, unless it’s on airplane mode or turned off. This means keep it out of your pocket or bra when it’s turned on and the signal is active. Airplane mode is your friend! If you’ve never used airplane mode, it’s worth learning how, and it’s an easily accessible setting on all modern phones. If you need to keep your phone on because you’re waiting for a call or text, at least make sure it’s further away from your body, such as on a table next to you, or kept at a safer distance from your body in your purse or bag.

• Keep your phone out of your bedroom at night, and keep electronics away from your sleeping area. If your phone needs to be in your bedroom at night, keep it on airplane mode (you can still use the alarm) or at a safer distance from your sleeping area. You could even turn off or unplug electrical appliances in your bedroom before you go to sleep, or turn off the breaker that powers your bedroom outlets. Many people have found that these few changes improve their quality of sleep at night!

• Turn off your Wifi at night or when you aren’t using it. Wifi is usually the closest range and most intense EMF exposure that many people have. If you can eliminate this one electromagnetic stressor more often, you may find that you feel much better.

• Even better: Ditch the Wifi and get your home wired with copper or fiber optic internet! Wired connections are so much better for every reason. Read more about this in our article, Why Wired Internet in the Home & Office Is Better Than 5G.

• Don’t use “Smart” devices in your home (within reason). This includes wireless doorbells, baby monitors, and “smart” appliances like Wifi enabled ovens, washers/dryers and beds. You may need to use these devices for certain reasons, but we recommend at least thoroughly assessing the use of each device and deciding if it’s worth the extra EMF exposure. If you have a “smart” meter as your electricity meter, contact your electric company and ask if they can replace it with an older digital or analog meter.

Those are just a few suggestions that can immediately improve your quality of life, without compromising connectivity and only slightly decreasing convenience. With this approach, there will be trade-offs, and you will have to decide for yourself which exposures are worth tolerating, and which ones you truly don’t need.

EMF Shielding & Blocking

One popular approach to EMF protection is using shielding materials to block electromagnetic radiation. These items contain certain metals, often in a grid-like pattern, that absorb the measurable EMFs and don’t allow their passage beyond the material. They are commonly referred to as Faraday shields (or Faraday cages), named after Michael Faraday, who invented them in the 1800’s. Often, they will be simply called EMF shielding or blocking materials. They can be made of cloth (with metal strands weaved into the cloth), solid sheets of metal, or grid-like or cage-like structures.

Often people will put these around their bed when they sleep, or wear clothing made of Faraday shielding cloth, hoping to block the EMFs from reaching their body.

This approach can be marginally effective, with certain key limitations. Shielding will attenuate or fully block the conventionally measurable transverse component of the electromagnetic wave, which you can see if you use an EMF measuring device like a Trifield meter. Your cell phones and Wifi won’t work behind a Faraday cage, because the information they transmit is on a transverse carrier signal.

The problem is that shielding will not block the longitudinal (scalar) component of the electromagnetic wave, which is estimated to be 5 times stronger in its biological effects than the transverse component! The EMF measuring devices available today are only designed to measure the transverse component of the EMF. Many people believe that if these devices can’t measure it, then it doesn’t exist.

Every electromagnetic field contains both a transverse and longitudinal component, as theorized by James Clerk Maxwell and proven by Nikola Tesla, and many others since Tesla’s time. A transverse wave cannot exist without an accompanying longitudinal/scalar field, but the opposite is not true: a scalar field can exist without a transverse component, because the scalar field doesn’t depend on the transverse wave. This is what we call “pure scalar”, and is how Blushield devices work. This begins to get somewhat complicated, but to learn more about scalar energy, and longitudinal vs. transverse waves, read these two article we have written to explain the subject in depth:

Scalar Energy and EMF – What You Need To Know
Scalar Energy, Biology, and Consciousness

Back to shielding, because of the above drawback it’s important to understand that relying too much on shielding as a primary EMF protection strategy can give a false sense of security. You may think you’re more protected than you are, because you are relying more on the numbers displayed on a meter than feedback from your body. This is understandable, since many people are not very sensitive to subtle energies, so may not trust their body’s signals.

Another big downside to shielding is that in this world, you can’t live in a bubble. You can’t just block out harmful frequencies and exist in a vacuum. You still need to participate in life, and along with living comes exposure to many frequencies, including a variety of beneficial and harmful ones. Even if you have a fiber optic or copper internet connection, making it possible to use your computer internet inside your Faraday cage, most people can’t completely cut themselves off from the outside world, nor would they want to.

If you currently use shielding products and have experienced benefits from them, we encourage you to continue using them in the limited way you can, but not to overly rely on them as a primary form of EMF protection. Here’s a more thorough explanation of the scalar component of the EMF, and why you can’t truly block EMFs:

Can You Actually Block EMF?

Passive EMF Protection

The majority of EMF protection devices on the market could be considered “passive” devices. This means they don’t use electricity to amplify a signal, so are more subtle and inert aspects of your environment. These include various stickers, necklaces, pyramids and stones, as well as some larger devices.

Some of these can have neat properties and do seem to exude some kind of beneficial energy. An example are certain types of rocks, like lodestones and shungite. We think these are interesting and worth having around if you like them, and they probably have some minor protective properties. However, there is no way that the energy these stones exude is enough to combat the extremely high levels of pervasive EMF we are exposed to in modern times. They cannot be considered a primary EMF protection strategy.

The same goes for the many stickers and pendants on the market. Some are meant to stick on your phone and supposedly block the radiation from them, or “harmonize” the EMFs so they aren’t damaging your health. Once again, there is no way that a tiny sticker or inert necklace is going to be remotely strong enough to block or render harmless even a tiny bit of the currently obscene levels of EMFs around us. For the ones that claim to block EMFs, if they actually blocked the signal from your phone, you couldn’t make calls from your phone. Our personal experience with these, and those of everyone we know, is that these don’t work at all and are a waste of money.

Pyramids are similar to the above mentioned rocks, in most cases. The pyramid shape naturally has properties that concentrate energy, and the materials the pyramids are made from often have some kind of subtle energetic properties. Many of them are made of a resinous combination of substances that is known as orgonite, and others are simple pyramids made from shungite or other stones. These can be pretty decorative pieces, and often exude some subtly beneficial energy, but most likely do very little to reduce the harm of EMF exposure.

If you start looking into the higher price ranges, you will find some larger devices that are specifically designed for EMF protection, but could also be considered passive devices. They are all designed differently, some using copper coils, mineral solutions, and gemstones or precious metals. Some contain a liquid that releases free electrons, which are supposed to depolarize the EMFs and render them harmless to the body. They may have some positive effect, depending on the person, but once again, a device or contraption that’s passive (not powered) is going to be more subtle and less powerful, and is unlikely to be able to mostly or completely remove the bodily stress caused by EMFs.

Active, Powered EMF Protection

There are only a few devices on the market currently that utilize mains power or a battery to amplify a signal, to become a strong enough positive influence to match or exceed the negative influence of the manmade EMFs. From our research and experience, only powered devices are strong enough to truly negate the overwhelming levels of EMFs we are dealing with in modern times.

Active devices either plug into a wall socket with a power cord, or run from a battery. Comparing the active EMF protection devices that are on the market, that’s about where the similarities end. The actual content of the broadcasted signal is vitally important. Active devices amplify a signal, but what type of information and frequencies are carried by this strong signal, and how does it work to protect your body from the EMFs in the environment? None of these devices remove the harmful EMFs from the environment, because if they did, your communications devices would no longer work. If they don’t remove or modify the EMFs, how do they help?

Active devices can operate through various means. Some use copper coils (aka Tesla coils) to generate a scalar field. These can have some positive effects, but there are downsides to using copper coils. Read more about that in our article on the subject:

Tesla Coils, Copper Toxicity, and Blushield’s Revolutionary Scalar Microprocessors

Some other active devices use precious metals and gemstones along with lights that slowly release the gemstone particles into the surrounding environment. Other active devices generate what’s called a “noise field”, which is random inaudible noise that is meant to combine with the harmful EMFs to deactivate the part of their structure that causes harm, so hopefully they will impact your body in a less harmful way.

Some EMF protection devices emit repetitive frequencies, including supposedly beneficial frequencies like the Schumann resonance, or Solfeggio frequencies. They will repeat one frequency, or one sequence of frequencies, over and over again. Some healing devices, like PEMF machines, will also do this to stimulate healing with a short term use. We don’t recommend exposing your body to repetitive frequencies for too long. You may see benefits at first, but over time, the body can develop a tolerance, resistance, or even an allergy to the repeated frequency. In terms of how it affects your body, the repetition of one frequency is like hitting the same button over and over again, exhausting the body in a certain way, while “under-stimulating” your body in other ways. Think of it like consuming too much of one nutrient or mineral, which eventually creates an imbalance and requires other nutrients to balance the body out.

Repetitive frequencies are thought to be a large part of the harm from manmade EMF sources. The information from your cell phone and cell towers is transmitted on a carrier signal of a single frequency. This frequency, for example the 2.45 GHz from your Wifi router, is stimulating your body in a very specific way, 24/7. This is not natural, and we are not designed to deal with a constant barrage of repetitive frequencies, since they do not exist in nature.

Not only is the repetitive aspect of the frequency and amplitude having a negative impact, these carrier signals (or information carrying radio waves) contain the information of the text or voice that is being sent, which is not coherent when it reaches the body. Energy fields in nature are coherent and beneficial to the body, so when the body is bombarded with chaotic signals, it goes on the defensive.

Blushield Active EMF Protection – Amplifying Nature’s Native Frequencies

We are surrounded by natural frequencies, and have been since the beginning of our existence. These frequencies of nature are infinitely varied, and nothing in nature will ever repeat in exactly the same way more than once, because everything in time and space is always moving and changing. We need these frequencies for our health.

Sadly, most of us live in population dense cities with very little natural elements around us. We are around buildings, cars, and wireless communications devices all day, and our lives are sorely lacking in dense forests, waterfalls, the ocean and beach, and the freshly charged, negative ion rich air of high mountain environments. There is still the background Schumann resonance frequencies (which are actually changing and not a fixed frequency), but our manmade devices are so pervasive that these subtle background frequencies become mostly drowned out, as far as our bodies’ ability to sense them.

The idea and purpose of Blushield is to mimic the frequencies nature emits, but to do it in an active, powered way, amplifying natural frequency patterns so our bodies can “hear” them over the manmade EMFs. As long as the Blushield device you are using is strong enough for your body to hear it over the combined total of repetitive manmade EMFs around you (which will be unique to your situation), your Blushield will emit the dominant signal in your environment, and your body will “hear” or “tune into” this signal and begin to resonate with it.

This process of your body preferentially entraining to a dominant frequency stream that’s more biocompatible is called “sympathetic resonance”.

This doesn’t mean the EMFs go away, just that your body stops paying attention to them and reacting to them. When the body notices the harmful EMFs, it treats these unfamiliar and repetitive frequency patterns like it would treat an actual physical invader (like a virus or bacteria), and mounts an immune response to them, in an effort to attack and defeat them. The problem is, there is nothing physical there to attack and defeat, so the body exhausts itself continuously trying.

This immune system overreaction to repetitive frequencies is the primary reason that EMFs are harmful. If we had another frequency stream available to entrain to, one that was biologically coherent and similar to the way our bodies are designed, we would entrain to it like a tuning fork. Or like tuning into a different radio station. The other stations still exist, but we can’t hear them anymore, since we have turned the dial to a different station. What is interesting is that the biology demonstrates that the body is no longer negatively impacted by the EMF in the environment when Blushield is in operation and once the person is fully entrained. So it is not just ignoring the EMF, the body is actually harmonizing and optimizing its biofield, which is what a lot of these passive devices are claiming to do.

Blushield is an active, powered device that utilizes cutting-edge microprocessor technology. The nature-based, infinitely varied multiple waveform algorithms are programmed into the microprocessor. This extremely complex pattern is sent through a circuit to light-emitting diodes (which can produce scalar fields through photon emission), which encode the waveform patterns onto a scalar carrier signal that radiates hundreds of feet outward in an invisible sphere.

Because Blushield uses a scalar/longitudinal carrier signal, it is highly bioactive. The encoded frequency algorithm emits multiple waveforms at the same time, each conforming to patterns that occur in nature, such as the Phi ratio. The frequencies themselves are all within the human responsive range, which is a range of frequencies that occur in nature that are harmonious with biology. The multiple waveforms overlap in a way where they will never repeat in exactly the same way twice, with the same combination of frequencies at the same amplitude. This ensures that the body never develops a tolerance or resistance to the frequencies, so we will remain attuned to Blushield for as long as the device is plugged in or turned on.

Which EMF Protection Strategy is Right for You?

To wrap it all up and help you apply this to your unique life situation, how can you know which protection strategies will give you the most mileage and results?

We recommend basing your EMF protection on a combination of reducing EMF exposure in reasonable ways, and the appropriate strength Blushield device(s) for your living situation and needs. The active, powered nature of Blushield makes it far more powerful than any passive device, and it also stands out among active devices on the market with its revolutionary scalar microprocessor and infinitely varied frequency output based on natural patterns that have been with us as humans since the beginning of our time here.

If you want to add anything on top of that, go for it! We find that Blushield doesn’t seem to conflict with or negate other devices and approaches, and can be used in combination with most of them with no ill effect. In fact, if there are other frequency generators or devices being used, it will likely fill in the gaps or balance the body to anything that may not be in resonance or coherence with your body.

You can use Blushield with shielding materials, which will protect you from the scalar component of the harmful EMFs that travels through the shielding materials.

You can use Blushield with grounding/earthing sheets and mats, where Blushield could protect your body if the grounding influence is causing ambient EMFs to “ground” through you, which could potentially increase your EMF exposure.

You can use Blushield with stones and pyramids, and passive devices that emit subtle healing substances and frequencies into your environment. In this case, Blushield could be seen as your basic EMF protection, and any passive devices that actually work may add some energetic perks on top of that.

You can use Blushield along with PEMF and microcurrent healing devices, where it can negate any stress that may be caused by repetitive transverse frequencies these devices can emit, while still allowing your body to benefit from the targeted healing influence of these therapeutic style devices.

On February 26^th, 2021, Children’s Health Defense (CHD) filed another lawsuit against the FCC. This one is in response to a recent “small” alteration the FCC made to their “Over-the-Air Reception Devices” rule (also known as OTARD) that would make it quick and easy for a wireless provider to contract with a private individual to place a “hub and relay” wireless antenna on the individual’s property.

Previously, the rule only allowed individuals to have wireless receivers installed on their houses for their own personal service, not transmitters. The new rule would allow individuals who are utilizing the service of a wireless provider to host antennas that are not just receivers, but also transmitters, acting as a “hub” of wireless service to “relay” faster and more direct service to surrounding homes that are also subscribed to the same service network.

The FCC insists this is now necessary because the higher speeds and increased data transmission of 5G wireless service require significantly denser antenna networks, since higher frequency 5G signals will not reach nearly as far as the comparatively longer and broader 4G wavelengths, and are easily obstructed by solid objects like trees and buildings. Their only way around this is to place antennas in as many places as possible. It seems that they realized they could only get so far with antenna placements in public jurisdictions (which their laws already allow them to do, prohibiting local governments from objecting in most cases), and now they have to go after private property locations, especially in rural areas where their coverage is currently low or spotty.

Sadly, many individuals who own or lease property will be happy to host these antennas, in exchange for monetary compensation by the wireless providers, or a discount on their service. The new rule overrides local zoning ordinances and neighborhood association rules, and does not require public notification before a contract is signed between service provider and individual. So in most cases, neighbors will not even know about the new antenna. If a neighbor notices and objects to the antenna, under the new rule they have no recourse, even though a wireless repeater/relay antenna could irradiate their home with dangerous close range radiofrequency radiation.

What Could Go Wrong?

To get an idea of what could easily happen, and will happen in rural areas if this rule is allowed to persist, imagine a house with one of these hub and relay antennas installed on the roof. Let’s say their neighbor two doors down also subscribes to the same wireless service. With this new antenna placement, the signal will come from a larger antenna or tower further away, straight to the new antenna/repeater, then relayed directly to the home of the neighboring subscriber.

What about the house in between? Let’s say this house doesn’t want the service, because they already have a fiber optic or copper internet connection, or maybe they are okay with their older, slower 4G cell service. Let’s say this family recently moved to a rural area because one or more members experience radiation sickness when they’re around high levels of microwave/radiofrequency radiation. For their health, they had to leave the conveniences of the city and live a slower paced rural life. Their home is their sanctuary from the wireless madness that’s increasingly permeating population dense areas.

There are many people in this situation, and the numbers are increasing all the time as EMF sources and levels multiply. This new rule could make their lives unlivable, and there is no allowance for them to contest the change, violating their bodily autonomy and private property rights.

FCC Rule Is Adopted, Violating Numerous Personal & Property Rights

The lawsuit by CHD was filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals, and asserts that the FCC’s amendment violates constitutional rights and common law personal and property rights. The rule also preempts federal and state civil rights laws that protect the disabled. Microwave sickness is a disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and a handicap under the Fair Housing Act (FHA).

Dafna Tachover, director of CHD’s 5G and Wireless Harms Project, said:

“This rule will create a wireless ‘wild west.’ Because of the extensive preemptions and how easy OTARD makes it to install antennas to propagate the signals, the rule will likely lead to the most significant and fastest proliferation of 5G by using homes and private properties for the deployment.”

CHD first became aware that the FCC intended to adopt the new rule early in 2020, and filed a 22-page letter with the FCC detailing the legal and moral transgressions it would allow, and urging them to reconsider. The letter was joined by 15,090 people, many of whom experience debilitating microwave sickness. Parents wrote about their children’s sickness with cancer, and how wireless radiation aggravates autism symptoms and causes seizures in their children. The FCC’s proposed rule was objected to by municipalities, the Real Estate Association, and the Conference of Mayors.

The Conference of Mayors argued in their official comments that the FCC lacks the legal authority to expand the OTARD rule to include hub and relay antennas, stating that hub and relay antennas fall under exclusive jurisdiction of state and local governments. Many others agree with their sentiments, including CHD. It is clear that the FCC is attempting to gradually remove any and all decision making power over cell tower and antenna placement from the local communities that will have to suffer the variety of consequences of their existence, and who may not even desire their service at all.

In the FCC’s Report and Order that officially approved the new rule on January 7^th, their usual style of callous disregard of public objection was clear once more in the brief and unconvincing counter-arguments they included almost as an afterthought, close to the very end of the order, dismissing tens of thousands of objections with lazy conjecture. As usual, they dismiss the mere possibility of harm from radiofrequency radiation, ignoring the mountain of significant and conclusive evidence proving its existence and prevalence in the population.

CHD attorney Scott McCollough warns, “approval of this rule will lead to massive suffering, extensive litigation and likely public protest.”

Stay Tuned for Progress on CHD vs. FCC Cases

Here at Blushield, we closely follow the activities of Children’s Health Defense, and strongly believe in their tireless pursuit to protect the health of our children from the variety of toxic exposure sources plaguing society today. We donate monthly to CHD to directly support their fight against unethical legislation allowing the proliferation of harmful microwave radiation and 5G.

This is the second lawsuit that CHD has filed against the FCC. The first one was filed in February of 2020, contesting the FCC’s refusal to update their vastly outdated wireless radiation exposure guidelines. This case is currently awaiting the court’s decision. Read more about the first case in our previous article.

As soon as CHD heard about the FCC’s proposed amendment to OTARD that would allow high speed wireless transmitters to be installed on houses in rural neighborhoods, they knew they couldn’t allow this rule to be executed into action without a fight. You can donate to CHD to support this cause and others.

This situation is a perfect example of why Blushield is so important. While there is no substitute for letting our voices be heard in protest of toxic microwave radiation permeating public and private spaces, sometimes unethical laws can slip through the legislative cracks, and it can take a very long time to raise enough awareness and go through the appropriate legal processes to reverse them.

In the meantime, we need to do everything we can to protect ourselves. Blushield technology has significantly improved the quality of life of many of our EMF hypersensitive customers, reducing or eliminating their uncomfortable and sometimes life threatening chronic symptoms of microwave sickness. For an individual who can relate to the example earlier in this article, who suffers from radiation induced illness and suddenly sees a 5G antenna on their neighbor’s property, a Blushield in the home can significantly aid the preservation of their health and well being, as they explore potential accommodations and remedies to ideally remove the source of exposure from their home.
