Oxidative stress from free radical production in the body is a pervasive issue that can significantly impact our lives and our health, and potentially cause or contribute to degenerative disease, especially in modern times.

Through our normal metabolic processes (the conversion of food into energy through oxygen), our bodies naturally produce a small but consistent amount of free radicals as a byproduct. Our immune system also creates free radicals intentionally to destroy harmful elements that have invaded the body, such as viruses and bacteria, by oxidizing their cell membranes. Free radicals are essential to cell signaling and wound healing, as well as degrading and recycling damaged cells. In the right amounts and applied in the right situations, free radicals serve a vitally important function in maintaining the health and survival of the body. The danger lies in the excessive amounts triggered by the many modern sources of toxic exposure, which overwhelm the body's antioxidant defense system, leaving us vulnerable to chronic illness.

Free radicals are highly reactive molecules with unpaired electrons in their outer electron shell, making them unstable and prompting them to ‘steal’ electrons from nearby molecules to stabilize themselves, which causes oxidative stress. If there are not enough molecules in the area with extra electrons and the ability to donate them to subdue the unstable free radicals, they will grab electrons from the membranes of healthy cells, creating a vulnerability and damaging the cell.

Types of free radicals include reactive oxygen species (ROS) like superoxide, hydroxyl radical and hydrogen peroxide; and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) like nitric oxide. These can even combine to produce more highly reactive and harmful substances, such as peroxynitrite, which is created when nitric oxide interacts with superoxide.

Molecules in the body that effectively neutralize free radicals by donating or receiving an electron to protect the body from the harmful effects of oxidative stress are called antioxidants.

Antioxidants are defined as substances with the ability to donate or receive electrons to stabilize free radicals, without becoming destabilized themselves. Some types of antioxidants are endogenous, meaning they are produced from within the body. These include glutathione, melatonin, catalase, and superoxide dismutase. Endogenous antioxidants are the body’s internal defense against being harmed by the chain reaction of free radicals, which would otherwise proliferate unchecked, causing significant cell damage and cell death.

Additionally, many antioxidants come from dietary sources, including some that are considered essential nutrients. These include vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, magnesium, zinc, beta carotene, folic acid/folate, and various flavonoids and polyphenols, including lycopene, quercetin and catechins. Some of these (including vitamins C and E) act as antioxidants on their own, while others support the enzymes involved in the body’s antioxidant system. Selenium is an essential component of the enzymes that produce glutathione peroxidase, while magnesium is necessary for the activation of the enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD).

Some of the most important and biologically active dietary antioxidants are vitamin C and vitamin E. They work together synergistically, as they function in different areas of the body, together scavenging free radicals throughout the entirety of the organism.

Vitamin E is fat soluble, and protects the lipids of the cell membranes from oxidation. Cell membranes are rich in polyunsatured fatty acids (PUFAs), which are highly susceptible to oxidative damage. This process of lipid peroxidation is prevented by adequate vitamin E levels in the body, which is especially important in areas with a high fat content, like the brain, nervous system, heart, lungs and skin.

Vitamin C is water soluble, so it works in the watery parts of the body, including the bloodstream and the cytosol, the fluid portion of the cell between its outer membrane and nucleus/core. It is particularly important for optimal immune system function, as well as wound healing, collagen production, and utilizing iron from plant foods.

After vitamin E has donated an electron to neutralize a free radical, it then becomes oxidized itself. The oxidized form of vitamin E is called tocopheryl radical. However, unlike free radical molecules, vitamin E remains relatively stable in its oxidized form. The only problem is it’s no longer useful as an antioxidant.

This is where vitamin C comes in. Vitamin C has the ability to regenerate oxidized vitamin E back into its active form, so it can continue its protective role in lipid-rich environments. Vitamin C will then become oxidized by donating an electron to regenerate vitamin E (oxidized vitamin C is called dehydroascorbate), but it’s easily regenerated back into its active form by endogenous processes, usually involving glutathione.

This a powerfully synergistic combination that can significantly assist the body in defending itself from excess oxidative stress and the harm it can cause to our overall health.

The overall process of transferring electrons between substances, which changes their oxidation state, is called the redox reaction (short for reduction-oxidation). A substance that donates electrons (such as an antioxidant) is called the reducing agent, and a substance that accepts electrons is called the oxidizing agent (such as a free radical when interacting with an antioxidant).

A perfect example of a redox reaction is how hydrogen and oxygen combine to produce water (H2O). Two hydrogen molecules each donate their sole electrons to one oxygen molecule, which contains six electrons in its outer shell and readily seeks two more to fill all eight spaces available in its electron shell, which is its most stable form. In this example, hydrogen is the reducing agent (the electron donor) and oxygen is the oxidizing agent (the receiver).

The inherent instability of the oxygen molecule explains why oxygen so frequently and easily turns into water, and it also explains why the oxygen molecule itself can act as a free radical in the body, if antioxidant levels are insufficient. Excess oxygen in the body, beyond what is needed for cellular energy production, is converted into H2O by our internal antioxidant defense system.

Without antioxidants, free radicals create a path of destruction by stealing an electron, which creates a new free radical that finds another electron to steal, resulting in a chain reaction that can wreak havoc on the healthy cells of the body. As soon as an antioxidant like vitamin E neutralizes one free radical in the chain, the whole process of destruction grinds to a halt.

Oxidative stress occurs if the antioxidant defense system is unable to prevent the harmful effects of free radicals, which can happen if free radical levels in the body exceed the capabilities of the antioxidants we have available. If our diet is deficient in antioxidant sources, we are more susceptible to damage from oxidative stress, as our antioxidant defense system won’t be as fully equipped.

The health risks of oxidative stress, and the many modern exposure sources

Since excessive oxidative stress damages cells, proteins, and even DNA itself, the potential harm affects every system of the body, and can contribute to various diseases and conditions. It affects the cardiovascular system, increasing the risk of atherosclerosis, hypertension, heart attacks and strokes.

Free radicals can cause DNA mutations and DNA damage, which may lead to cancer development. They damage neurons and promote the formation of amyloid plaque, implicated in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

Free radicals contribute to diabetes by impairing insulin signaling pathways, and exacerbating complications of the disease, like neuropathy. Oxidative stress can cause chronic inflammation through the overproduction of inflammatory cytokines, which can result in autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease.

Oxidative stress also accelerates the aging process and overall health decline, impairs the immune system, and can cause eye disorders like macular degeneration and cataracts.

Why is oxidative stress far more of a health concern in modern times than it was for our ancestors?

It relates to the cumulative effect of the numerous exposure sources we are faced with today.

Air pollution triggers the production of free radicals in the lungs and bloodstream. Long-term exposure from living in polluted, population dense urban areas can contribute to respiratory diseases, cardiovascular problems and even cancer. This includes excessive smoke inhalation from cigarettes and other sources. Excessive ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sun exposure can cause oxidative damage to skin cells. Chemical exposure (including pesticides, heavy metals and industrial pollutants, all of which are invisible and pervasive) generates oxidative stress that causes cell and tissue damage and chronic disease.

Unhealthy diets that contain a lot of processed food, additives, preservatives and alcohol, especially combined with a poor intake of fruits, vegetables and herbs (which are dietary antioxidant sources), can cause oxidative stress.

Excessive stress beyond what the body can recover from, whether it’s physical, mental or emotional, can increase cortisol, which produces oxidative stress.

Another well known source of oxidative stress is radiation exposure. Typically this refers to ionizing radiation, which vibrates at a high enough frequency to instantly knock electrons out of atoms, creating unstable free radicals. Ionizing radiation sources include x-rays, medical imaging, industrial accidents and environmental contamination.

There is an increasingly large body of science that also links non-ionizing radiation with free radical production and oxidative stress-related harmful health effects. Previously, people believed that since electromagnetic frequencies under the threshold of ‘ionizing’ are not strong enough to instantly dislodge an electron from an atom, that they must have no health effects. Science has overwhelmingly convinced us otherwise, and shown us that the effects may take a little longer, but that this form of radiation is equally dangerous because of our constant exposure to it.

In the past decade, the primary mechanism believed to cause the health effects of EMFs involves the voltage-gated ion channels of cells (calcium, potassium, sodium and chloride), particularly the voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs). Basically, excessive or inappropriate activation of the VGCCs, which are highly electrically sensitive (readily responding to external EMFs as well as our internal electrochemical signaling), creates a cascade of damaging effects. Excessive calcium signaling on its own results in pathophysiological effects of various kinds, but what also occurs is an overproduction of nitric oxide and superoxide (both free radicals), which combine to produce a highly toxic and reactive free radical called peroxynitrite. This research was spearheaded by Dr. Martin Pall, who has been compiling this groundbreaking information since around 2016.

Dr. Pall also established the role of the VGCCs in the therapeutic effects of specific EMFs, dependent on the frequency, intensity and duration of exposure. EMFs found to have beneficial effects trigger a different part of the VGCC pathway called the nitric oxide signaling pathway, with a downstream effect of activating Nrf2, resulting in hormetic, therapeutic effects.

Here is a summary of several studies that not only implicate electromagnetic field exposure with free radical production and oxidative stress, but demonstrate the protective effects of vitamin C and E supplementation in neutralizing the harm. Most of these were done using cell phone frequencies, to study one of the most common EMF exposure sources in the daily lives of modern humans.

Studies demonstrating oxidative stress from EMF exposure, and protection from vitamins C & E

A study review from Turkey in 2017 assessed several studies showing that exposure to EMF results in oxidative stress in many tissues in the body, increases free radical production, and impacts the antioxidant defense system of the body. Reported findings from these studies include stress, headache, tiredness, anxiety, decreased learning potential, impairment in cognitive functions and poor concentration as a result of exposure to microwave radiation emitted from cell phones.

The review elaborates on how non-ionizing radiation generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), which is extremely toxic to cell membranes. It describes the antioxidant defense system of the body and all of its components, and how EMF exposure compromises this defense system.

It points out that the brain has a high metabolic rate, making it more prone to oxidative damage compared to other organs, since our metabolic processes themselves produce oxidative stress. We know from many studies that the brain and nervous system are particularly affected by EMFs.

Malondialdehyde (MDA) is a highly reactive compound that results from lipid peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. It is used as a marker of lipid oxidative damage, and is the final product of the lipid peroxidation process. Vitamin E is the most important antioxidant which inhibits the LPO process. One of the reviewed studies reported that 50-day exposure to EMF causes oxidative stress by increasing MDA levels and reducing SOD (superoxide dismutase) activity, and observed that treatment with vitamin E prevented oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation. Several other studies corroborated the finding that exposure to EMF led to oxidative stress by reducing SOD activity, and reported that treatment with vitamin E prevents lipid peroxidation.

The review paper advises the use of various antioxidants such as vitamin E, melatonin and folic acid to reduce the adverse effects of EMF exposure.

In the study that did the 50-day exposure, the rats in the experimental group were exposed to EMF for 4 hours per day, and the second experimental group was exposed to the same EMFs but with vitamin E supplementation of 200 milligrams per kilogram of body weight.

Note that this particular dosage would be difficult or impractical to replicate for a human – the same dosage for a 150 pound human would equal 13,600 milligrams of vitamin E per day! A similar dosage was used in a 2013 study on rats, but this time using vitamin C. They found excellent protective effects from vitamin C, compared to the EMF-only group, but once again, this would be impractical to replicate in humans on a daily basis.

A 60-day study from 2019 that tested the effects of vitamin E supplementation on rats exposed to cell phone radiation, and observed before and after health markers in their testes, was another story. The dosage used was quite low (1.35 mg per kilo of body weight), and would be easy to replicate with the normal recommended daily dosages of vitamin E. These rats were exposed to cell phones ringing continuously for 120 minutes per day, and the vitamin E was only given 3 times per week, two hours before exposure to the EMFs. It was found that vitamin E protected sperm from oxidative damage, and enhanced sperm motility and performance.

Another study from 2012 on rats also used reasonable dosages. One group was exposed to EMFs without supplementation, the second group exposed to EMFs along with vitamin C (40 mg per kilo of body weight per day), and the third group exposed to EMFs along with vitamin E (2.7 mg/kg/day). This one also tested sperm quality, and both of the groups that were supplemented with the two different antioxidant vitamins were in much better shape than the EMF-only group.

These studies that found good results at lower dosages may indicate that even though the dosages used in the other studies mentioned are quite high, that this high amount may not be necessary to achieve optimal results. Since both vitamins are considered safe to consume at much higher levels than the recommended daily allowance, best results may be achieved by finding a happy medium between the low and high doses used in these studies.


How effective are antioxidants like vitamin C & E for EMF protection?

The studies listed above give a convincing argument that antioxidant nutrients, including the essential vitamins C and E, may be a powerful addition to your EMF protection strategy. Do we want to rely on them as our only form of EMF protection? In our opinion, no, we shouldn’t.

One reason is because of the dosage inconsistencies in these studies. Some studies used extremely high dosages, and although these dosages are likely safe, it would be impractical and expensive to maintain this level of consumption as a daily routine. We could assume that the lower levels used in some studies are adequate, but if we want to be very thorough in protecting our bodies from EMFs, it’s best to do whatever we can to reduce the harm as much as possible.

Another reason is that EMFs are not our only source of oxidative stress. We are also exposed to air pollution, chemicals, carcinogenic food byproducts and additives, stress, and possibly excessive sunlight, cigarette smoke and ionizing radiation. All of these exposure sources have to be neutralized by the antioxidants available in our body, lowering the total amount and leaving less available antioxidants dedicated to neutralizing EMF effects.

Every source of oxidative stress we're exposed to increases our nutrient burn rate, increasing the amount of each nutrient we need to consume to remain at a healthy baseline. If our EMF exposure is excessive, and we use vitamins as our only EMF protection strategy, to remain healthy we would need to take very large quantities of these antioxidant nutrients every single day.

Since there's no way to exactly measure our personal daily exposure to every source of oxidative stress, and calculate the exact amount of vitamins C & E needed to neutralize it, we would be guessing at best. Underestimating would leave us unprotected and vulnerable, and overestimating would leave us with a stomach full of pills and a very expensive monthly supplement bill.

What we believe to be the most sensible strategy is to minimize your EMF exposure as much as possible or practical, then to use an effective, clinically tested EMF protection device, like our Blushield home and portable units, as the foundation of your protection for the exposure sources you cannot control or eliminate. Blushield prevents oxidative stress from EMFs by creating a biologically coherent field that your body preferentially entrains with, which stops the body from attempting to “attack” the invisible, intangible EMFs 24/7. This constant attack exhausts the immune system’s energy reserves, and the excessive cytokine production from the immune activation directly produces free radicals.

While antioxidants can neutralize free radicals that have already been produced and begun to damage the body, entraining with a beneficial field can prevent free radical production before it even starts.

Where we really see antioxidants like vitamin C and E shining, when it comes to their role in EMF protection, is as an extra protection strategy – the icing on the cake!

Blushield devices come with various field strengths, depending on the model, and the one you choose should depend on your overall EMF exposure levels. Since nothing in nature is 100% efficient, there will likely always be a little bit of EMF that gets through and affects you anyway, even if you have the ideal strength Blushield for your needs. If you have plenty of antioxidants in your daily diet, and regularly supplement with vitamins C and E, this little bit of exposure that’s still affecting you can be mitigated by these antioxidants, rounding out your EMF protection strategy.

Another use for vitamins C and E is to assist highly sensitive folks, those with hyper-reactive bodies or chronic illness, in acclimating to the Blushield field. These people can sometimes take longer to adapt to the protective field, because their bodies are more guarded and resistant to change – and very understandably so, being burdened by trauma and illness for so long. Nutritional reinforcement of just the right kind could make all the difference.

When it comes to nutrient sources, there’s no replacement for getting these vitamins in their natural form, from the foods you eat. Eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, and raw nuts and seeds (cooking destroys vitamins C and E) will give you an excellent baseline of essential nutrients, polyphenols and flavonoids. Since our world is not ideal, and most food is deficient in nutrients to some extent, it is also sensible to supplement strategically.

You can take food-based supplements, like concentrates of vitamin C and E rich powders, which are highly bioavailable. You can also use concentrated synthetic forms for a more therapeutic effect, especially if you’re already deficient, or wanting to target sources of oxidative stress in your life, including EMFs.

Here are some of our favorite sources of vitamin C and E. If you feel called to add more of these two powerhouse nutrients into your life, pick the options that resonate with you most!

Solar Power Systems: How To Reduce EMF Exposure Risks

The electricity that we use to power the devices in our homes and buildings can be produced by a variety of sources. Natural gas, coal (burned to make steam), heat from nuclear energy, hydropower (moving water) and wind (moving air) can all create motion to spin a turbine, which is connected to a generator. The movement created by any of these sources spins the rotor in the generator, pushing electrons along a conductive coil, which interact with magnets to produce alternating current (AC) electromagnetic fields. This electricity travels to our homes via the power grid, and is a resource produced far away from our homes, which we depend on for most of our household routines.

Since the invention of solar power systems, which have become more economically viable over time, we now have the option to produce our own electricity directly from sunlight. This can decrease our dependency on the external power grid, and even reduce or eliminate our electricity bill. Most of us have plenty of sunlight where we live, at least during the warmer seasons, so in recent years as the components of solar power systems have become more affordable, this has become a viable option for home electricity.

The sun is a steady and reliable resource that most of us have direct access to. While the upfront cost of the components are a significant investment, a home solar power system can be economically advantageous in the long run.


How do solar power systems work to generate electricity?

With solar power systems, sunlight directly excites electrons held in crystallize materials like silicon, generating direct current (DC) electricity. This occurs on the surface of solar panels, also known as photovoltaic (PV) panels, which are placed in sunny areas like rooftops or open fields. The term photovoltaic refers to the generation of electrical voltage when photons of light come into contact with a material.

This DC electricity needs to be converted into AC to be usable by the electrical systems in homes and buildings – this is done with a device called an inverter. Inverters take the DC electricity and rapidly switch the direction back and forth, creating an “alternating” current – AC electricity. The inverter also ensures that the resulting AC matches the grid’s voltage, frequency and phase (in the United States it’s usually 120 volts at 60 hertz), to safely integrate the electricity into the grid. The end product from the harvest of solar energy generates electricity that’s identical to what’s produced by a generator powered by natural gas, coal, nuclear, hydro or wind.


Grid-tied versus off-grid solar systems – pros and cons

If a home solar power system is tied to the grid, this has several benefits and also some downsides. Batteries are by far the most expensive component of a solar power setup. With a grid tied solar system, you don’t need a battery to store the solar energy for use at night or during rainy or cloudy days – your solar power is fed directly into the larger electric grid, giving you an electricity “credit” that you can use later when it’s needed, automatically balancing out the fluctuating and unpredictable availability of sunlight. A grid tied solar system is far more convenient and flexible.

The main downside of grid tied solar power systems is that you’re still dependent on the electrical grid, even though you’re reducing your overall electricity cost by feeding your excess power into the larger grid. If the grid goes down, your power goes out, unless you have a generator as a backup. Another downside is that you’re almost certainly required to use a smart meter (unless your local area allows you to opt out), to accurately keep track of the electricity you’re sending to the grid and receiving back from it. Smart meters produce high levels of wireless radiofrequency (RF) radiation, and contaminate your home wiring with dirty electricity.

An off-grid solar system, on the other hand, is a closed system designed to produce all the electricity needs for a given location. This design requires much more forethought and careful planning, with enough solar panels to harvest sunlight energy for all household needs, a large enough battery bank to store power for use in times of the year with limited sunlight, and usually a backup generator for “worst case scenario” situations. It also necessitates more discipline and careful timing of electricity use for those living at that location. Another downside of an off-grid system is that since all power is produced at the location of use, you could be exposed to higher levels of EMFs from the storage batteries and the potentially larger quantity of total equipment used by the system. The benefits of a well designed off-grid solar system are energy independence from the external power grid, and not needing to use a smart meter.


Solar power system EMF exposure concerns & mitigation strategies

Both types of solar power systems will expose you to some level of EMFs, but understanding the EMF hotspots generated by each type of system will give you clarity about how to reduce and mitigate these risks. Solar panels produce a small amount of low voltage direct current (DC) electricity, and since they are usually placed a good distance away from living areas, the panels themselves aren’t much of an EMF concern.

The wiring that runs from the panels to the inverter and/or battery emits EMFs, and if you’re designing a solar setup, one way to minimize EMF output from the wiring is to ensure that all the wires – positive, negative, neutral and ground – are run side-by-side, tightly paired or twisted together. If the wires are run separately, inches or feet apart from each other, a strong magnetic field will be created in the space between the wires. When they’re close together, the magnetic field is basically canceled, reducing ambient EMF readings.

Every solar power setup uses an inverter to switch the DC power from sunlight into the AC power used by the grid. Inverters create dirty electricity as a byproduct of this conversion, which enters your home wiring. However, it’s important to realize that even with a conventional power system (and no solar setup), you are still exposed to dirty electricity from devices within and outside of your home. Dirty electricity, a term that describes voltage transients, fluctuations or anomalies that “dirty up” an otherwise smooth and “clean” sine wave, is an issue for almost everyone who lives a modern, technology-rich life.

The difference in EMF exposure between grid tied and off-grid solar power systems is the presence or absence of a battery, and the presence or absence of a smart meter. Off-grid systems must use batteries, and grid tied systems almost always use smart meters.

Solar batteries produce static magnetic fields, with the highest readings right next to the battery, quickly dropping down to zero as you move further away. The extra exposure from a solar battery bank can be mitigated by having a dedicated power room or shed that’s separate from the house or living area where humans and pets spend time. Your inverter can be in this room, as well, preventing exposure to the EMFs directly around the inverter.

The EMFs from a smart meter cannot as easily be mitigated by distance. If the meter is further away from the house, on the outside of a dedicated power shed, the radiofrequency (RF) transmissions the meter produces by sending and receiving data to and from the power company will be occurring further away from people, which will reduce wireless RF exposure to lower levels. However, the smart meter will still contaminate the electrical system with dirty electricity, on top of the dirty electricity that’s already being added to your home wiring by the inverter.

We also need to touch on the different types of inverters used in solar power systems: string inverters and microinverters. Microinverters are small inverters placed underneath each panel in the solar array, designed to convert DC energy from the panel into AC at the site of energy production, each inverter controlling a separate panel. String inverters are installed at the end of a string of panels, controlling them all as one, and are usually further away from the panels, on the ground in a main solar system control area (like a power shed).

Microinverters can optimize energy production since they treat each panel as a separate system. String inverters group a whole string of panels together, where the limitations of one panel could end up affecting the entire string: for example, if one panel is in the shade, or is losing efficiency due to age or corrosion, that affects the power production from the whole group. If each panel is controlled separately with microinverters, the high functioning and/or high sun exposure panels will not be limited by panels that may be converting less sunlight into power at any given time. In installations with partial shading or panel mismatch, this can result in higher total energy production over the lifetime of a system using the same number of panels.

Using microinverters under each panel is generally considered safer, since it immediately converts DC to AC – DC power can be a bigger fire hazard under compromised conditions, whereas AC is easier to control. However, that means the wiring on your roof would be running AC power, already carrying dirty electricity through the wires, potentially exposing you to more EMFs if any of your living spaces are close to the roof. Microinverters are also more costly than string inverters.

One last note about inverters and radiofrequency (RF) radiation: if you use an EMF meter (like the Trifield meter) to measure the EMFs coming from your inverter(s), you will likely notice a reading categorized as “RF”. Radiofrequency or RF emissions are commonly assumed to only come from wireless communication devices that use frequencies in the megahertz (MHz) or gigahertz (GHz) range to transmit data wirelessly from one place to another with aerial antennas. However, EMF meters will interpret any frequency in the low kilohertz (kHz) range and above as radiofrequency.

In the case of inverters, frequencies in the kHz-MHz range are produced as a byproduct of high-frequency switching electronics, in the form of a localized noise field. These emissions are not transmitted via antennas and typically diminish rapidly with distance, often approaching background levels within a few feet of the device, similar to other localized electric or magnetic field sources.


Eliminate dirty electricity concerns by cleaning up the sine wave

Dirty electricity, or high frequency voltage transients, are bad for the health of your devices and appliances, generating high frequency spikes that wear out electronic equipment, reducing their longevity. This high frequency “line noise” is also bad for your health, being potentially linked to cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, chronic stress, brain and mood disorders, obesity, asthma, and electro hypersensitivity (EHS).

Whether you’re concerned about the effects of dirty electricity produced by your solar power system’s inverter, the smart meter that a grid tied solar system necessitates the use of, or even just dirty electricity produced by the regular electrical grid with its smart meters and devices/appliances that utilize power in complex ways, there is a way to “clean up” the sine wave.

The SineTamer device, which is wired into your main breaker panel, removes all the excess voltage transients and spikes from the sine wave, by absorbing the excess and converting it to heat to be dispersed through the ground wire. Unlike the capacitance-based, plug-in dirty electricity filters that are widely available – which shunt the dirty electricity onto the neutral line, creating a strong magnetic field with equal or even greater health harms – SineTamer removes the threat completely.

The SineTamer also acts as a surge protector, which is an important component of a solar power system.


Comprehensive EMF protection for a variety of electromagnetic threats

While the SineTamer is an excellent solution for cleaning up the sine wave and therefore reducing the effects of dirty electricity, you still need to protect yourself from the ambient electric and magnetic fields produced by a solar power system, as well as wireless radiofrequency radiation from a variety of sources: smart meters, Wifi routers, Bluetooth, cell phones, nearby cell towers, smart appliances, and more.

One additional concern that some people have is living near a commercial solar power plant, which can expose anyone living nearby to EMFs that are orders of magnitude higher than a home solar power system. This situation requires considerably more protection than the relatively moderate electric, magnetic and radiofrequency fields that a home system would normally expose you to.

Blushield home and portable EMF protection devices offer comprehensive protection from all these radiation sources. There are different models designed for differing levels of EMF exposure, whether you live in a rural area or small town, suburban area or medium city, or even a large city or metropolitan area.

If you have a solar power system with a smart meter or battery bank close to your living area, or if you live near a commercial solar production facility, a strong Blushield model like the C1 Ultimate Cube, EVO Cube or EVO Pyramid would be an excellent choice for optimal protection.

If your home solar power system is designed with plenty of distance between your living area and the strongest EMF sources – the inverter, battery and smart meter – one of our low to moderate EMF exposure models like the Phi 02 Plugin, Phi 03, or B1 Premium Cube would likely suit your needs well.

If you also need protection when you leave your house, from the EMFs in your vehicle, cell towers, and exposure sources at other locations, a Blushield portable device will ensure that you stay in your “protective bubble” no matter where you go and what you’re exposed to.

Solar power systems can be a useful and beneficial upgrade to conventional electrical systems, as long as you understand the unique EMF risks and how to mitigate them.

Small Town Pulls Plug on Cell Tower: A Lesson from Sitka, Alaska

In a story we have been following for months, the residents of a small Alaskan island town who have been fighting against a proposed cell tower placement in a residential area were recently given the best news they could hope for, making over half a year of hard work worth it: the proposed cell tower was officially rejected by a court decision this October.

Studying the details of this case should help other local municipalities fight proposals for inappropriately placed cell towers in their area, and the precedent set by this case could strengthen other legal battles that are fought on similar grounds.

How did Sitka, Alaska win this case, when the Telecommunications Act of 1996 only allows local governments to reject new cell tower placements under very specific conditions?

Sitka is a remote island town of roughly 8,400 residents who take pride in the spectacular scenery, wildlife and tight-knit neighborhoods. Local wireless communications provider Tidal Networks had their sights set on a building location on a hill right above a residential neighborhood on Nancy Court, in an area with R-1 residential zoning, within 150 feet of homes. They insisted that the cell tower would need to be a massive 120-foot monopole to provide the level of coverage they were targeting, even though the R-1 zoning laws restrict the height of cell towers to only 35 feet, to protect local aesthetics and property values.

Another major issue is that the proposed cell tower location is in a zone with considerable landslide risk. This neighborhood is located at the edge of town, on the base of a hill. Landslides at this location are a distinct possibility, and far more likely if the soil is disturbed through construction of a large cell tower. Not only would the addition of a cell tower destabilize the ground in this area, making landslides more likely, but a strong landslide could cause the cell tower itself to collapse. If this occurred, the tower would fall towards the neighborhood, and local residents would be in danger for not just their property, but their lives.

Aesthetics are an important subject for local residents, who specifically built their houses in this location for the breathtaking natural views of nearby mountains, thick trees of the temperate rainforest, and the ocean view below.

As soon as the local government notified residents of the planned tower, many of them became alarmed and began researching the potentially harmful health effects of living so close to a radio frequency radiation emitting cell tower. Although the Telecommunications Act of 1996 specifically prohibits the rejection of cell towers based on the environmental effects of radio frequency emissions (which is absurd, as this should be a valid concern and argument in itself), fortunately Sitka had several other solid arguments to lean on, which were supported by the Act.

Tidal Networks filed for a variance (a zoning exception) to the 35-foot tower zoning restriction, arguing that the surrounding trees would block too much of the tower’s signal. Even though the Sitka Planning Director initially recommended that the variance be granted, it ended up being denied the first time, in April, due to a lack of supporting evidence. The telecom provider did not give up, and appealed their request, but it was eventually denied once more for several reasons. R-1 residential zoning restrictions only allow cell towers up to 35 feet in height, and variances are only granted if the tower would serve a clear need in the community. Sitka is already considered to be well serviced by wireless network providers, including accessible plans for low income residents, so the Tidal Networks tower would not be filling a need that was previously absent.

Another unusual aspect of the proposal that contributed to its denial by the court is the tower would have no wired fiber optic ground connection that would allow other local providers to place antennas on it, but would exclusively connect with satellite internet providers like Starlink. This would limit the usefulness of the tower as a placement structure for other antennas, and the company provided no cost analysis plans for building out a wired ground connection, now or in the future.

One of the telecom’s arguments for being granted this tower location is that they investigated 129 different sites in the Sitka area, and the Nancy Court location was the only one providing adequate coverage. It turns out that many of these 129 sites were private property, and property owners refused to sell their land to the telecom. Since Tidal Networks intended to use grant money for this tower, and the grant required that Tidal has ownership over their building locations (instead of just leasing the land), the property owners’ refusal to sell automatically ruled out many of the other sites.

The Court Decision text states, “Public comments and letters were uniformly opposed to the variance based on concerns that construction of the tower would lower the value of nearby properties, would expose nearby residents to potentially dangerous radio emissions, destabilize landslide prone slopes in the area, and negatively impact aesthetics and land values in the area.”

The successful rejection of this tower was fully due to local residents banding together and taking quick and decisive action, both in seeking out legal assistance, as well as speaking out about the tower through letters and at local meetings throughout the entire process. Early on, as soon as residents were informed of this tower proposal and became cognizant of its potential dangers, they formed Sitka For Safe Tech, and contacted Children’s Health Defense attorney Scott McCullough, an expert attorney with extensive experience with cell tower related cases. This early action was vital to their success.

It is vastly easier to prevent a cell tower from being placed while in the early planning stages, than to cause a cell tower to be removed after it’s already been built.


Why is it so hard for local governments to reject cell towers?

The court decision document for the Sitka case included an insightful section that illustrates the heart of the problem of why rejecting cell towers is so difficult:

“Proposals to build wireless telecommunication towers invariably raise thorny issues for local zoning authorities. Much like high voltage power lines, highways, and airports, almost everyone uses the services made possible by these towers. Indeed, given the number of people and businesses who depend on the availability of reliable wireless networks, these towers are a necessity of modern life. Correspondingly, however, nobody wants a telecommunications tower constructed close to their home. If the decision to build these towers was effectively handed over to the owners of nearby properties, it seems a safe assumption that few would ever be built.”

This paragraph illustrates a classic conflict between the needs of the public and the values of the private. The document then follows up by quoting the Telecommunications Act of 1996, and how Section 704 (which is an amendment to Section 332 of the original Communications Act of 1934) intends to balance the scales between the values of the private individual and the benefits desired by the public:

“For this reason, Congress has enacted provisions within the Telecommunications Act, that limit the ability of state and local governments to deny applications for the construction of “personal wireless service facilities.” These provisions, which have been codified at 47 U.S.C. §332(c)(7)(B), provide as follows:

(i) The regulation of the placement, construction, and modification of personal wireless service facilities by any State or local government or instrumentality thereof

(I) shall not unreasonably discriminate among providers of functionally equivalent services; and

(II) shall not prohibit or have the effect of prohibiting the provision of personal wireless services.

(ii) A State or local government or instrumentality thereof shall act on any request for authorization to place, construct, or modify personal wireless service facilities within a reasonable period of time

(iii) Any decision by a State or local government or instrumentality thereof to deny a request to place, construct, or modify personal wireless service facilities shall be in writing and supported by substantial evidence contained in a written record.

(iv) No State or local government . . . may regulate the placement, construction, and modification of personal wireless service facilities on the basis of the environmental effects of radio frequency emissions to the extent that such facilities comply with the Commission's regulations concerning such emissions.

To the extent a local government denies an application to build a personal wireless service facility in violation of these provisions, the applicant may seek an injunction in federal court that overturns the denial.”

Overall, these rules provide a reasonable compromise between private and public needs. The main exception is subsection (iv) that prohibits the rejection of cell towers on the basis of “the environmental effects of radio frequency emissions”, which could also be construed to include health effects. At this time, as studies continue to pile up demonstrating harmful health effects (on humans, animals, trees, insects and more) from radio frequency radiation, there is a major movement towards overturning section 704 of the 1996 Act, and specifically subsection (iv).

The most vocal source of opposition is 704 No More, an initiative of the Children’s Health Defense, who have been instrumental in helping local municipalities battle inappropriate placement of cell towers. The 704 No More initiative seeks to educate people about the need for an environmental and health based defense against cell tower placement, with the intention to eventually overturn or revise Section 704.


FCC seeks to override local zoning restrictions with new rule – don’t let them!

Ironically, or perhaps intentionally, the FCC is currently seeking movement in the opposite direction. From FCC’s Docket 25-276, a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking is attempting to “streamline” tower placement by eliminating “regulatory burdens imposed at the state and local level”. Even with the very reasonable rules already stated in the 1996 Act, which mostly favor the telecoms and not local governments, that is not enough for them. They want to “expedite, eliminate and simplify permitting burdens”, which they argue are limiting economic development, job creation and energy production.

We don’t see what the problem is. Aren’t there enough cell towers already?

Also, it is perfectly reasonable to require a large build-out of infrastructure (like a cell tower) to go through a full permitting and approval process, and not to be granted special benefits to skip over any part of a full assessment for appropriate placement and planning at the state and local level.

Local municipalities already have limited power to prevent cell tower placement, and must base their rejection on very specific arguments (as outlined in the 1996 Act above). If a local government cannot listen to the concerns of the people they serve, and act as an intermediary between the needs of their citizens and the desires of large corporations (who may not truly have the benefit of the people in mind, over their own profits), then what fail-safe do we have to prevent unchecked growth that may be motivated by greed?

It is true that private values and public benefits can sometimes seem to be in conflict. This should be where the “scales of justice” can step in, assess the nuances of an individual situation, and decide on a solution that is truly fair. To do this successfully, the appropriate laws must be in place to act as a basic framework for these real-time decisions to be made in the courts. We cannot completely skew the law in favor of large corporations, and leave no recourse for local areas to defend the needs of their people.

If we allow this, there would be nothing left to limit and safeguard against the greed of money-hungry corporations who aren’t serving a real need to “underserved” areas, and are mainly concerned with propping up as many cell towers as they can get away with.

The FCC Proceeding is titled “Build America: Eliminating Barriers to Wireless Deployments”, Docket Number 25-276.

A website titled Preserve Local Control has been created as a platform to spread the word about this proposed rule, so that we can submit comments directly to the FCC’s docket within a time-sensitive window.

What did Sitka, Alaska do correctly that other local areas can learn from?

Let’s go back to the successful Sitka case to close this out, and summarize what Sitka did right that other local areas fighting proposed cell tower installations could learn from.

It’s true that part of their success was situational: the Tidal Networks cell tower proposal was almost doomed to fail, due to their bravado in assuming they could take advantage of the inertia of the system and be granted an easy variance to the zoning regulation on tower height. They were also lazy in their planning, with an insufficient argument as to why they needed a 120-foot tower (instead of a more gentle compromise of a tower height somewhere between 35 and 120 feet). Another aspect of the denial was due to the telecom’s inability to show that its proposed tower “would not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property nearby parcels.” This likely refers to both the landslide risk of the area, as well as the tower affecting aesthetics and property values, both of which are strong grounds for a rejection that are well supported by the 1996 Act.

However, even with all its flaws, this tower proposal would have likely been approved seamlessly if local residents didn’t take a stand against it.

The court’s verdict also stated that 47 U.S.C. § 332(c)(7)(B) does not apply to the tower proposed by Tidal Networks, because it would only provide services for their fixed wireless broadband internet service subscribers, and not wider and more generic commercial mobile services “available to a substantial portion of the public” that the Act provides protection for.

Even though we currently cannot argue for the rejection of a cell tower on the grounds of environmental or health effects of RF radiation (which we are hoping will change!), there are still other arguments we can make that are strongly valid under the current laws.

The most important thing is to act quickly – as soon as you hear about plans for a proposed cell tower in your area, seek legal counsel from an experienced attorney (like Scott McCullough) to determine if your area has solid grounds on which to reject the tower placement. Since the 1996 Act requires that local governments must “act on any request within a reasonable period of time”, this means you cannot delay taking action, because your local area is required to respond as quickly as possible.

Downplayed Dangers: The Missing EMF Conversation in the MAHA Report

First let’s start with the good news:  the recently published Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) report is the first official acknowledgment by the executive branch of the United States government that electromagnetic fields (EMFs) pose health risks even below the FCC exposure level guidelines.  In itself, this is a groundbreaking step towards broader public awareness and action steps to protect humans, animals and the environment from ever increasing EMF exposure from a wide variety of manmade sources.

However, there has been much criticism about how the report significantly downplays the harms of EMFs, and made statements that were watered down, misleading and even erroneous, to lead the public to believe that the potential problem isn’t nearly as bad as it actually is.

Let’s break it down to see what the report does say, and what it leaves out.

The MAHA Report, published on May 22nd, 2025, is a very extensive and detailed 73-page document.  The report focuses on the effects of ultra processed foods, environmental toxins, the childhood vaccination schedule, overmedicalization, a sedentary lifestyle, and corporate lobbying, considering all of these to be heavily influential factors in the chronic disease epidemic in the United States, especially in children.

The contents are groundbreaking and significant, and could create a wave of positive policy change that supports human health.  The majority of subjects this report addresses have been considered taboo in the past, and are concerns of a growing percentage of the population that have been continually ignored by the government and their corporate lobbyists.  These lobbyists represent the industries that control the widespread acceptance of these harmful lifestyle factors, which strongly influence our culture and habits, to all of our detriment.

The report points out that over 40% of U.S. children have at least one chronic health condition, making this generation of children the sickest in American history. These trends have consistently worsened each year, according to the report, “posing a threat to our nation’s health, economy, and military readiness.”

In particular, childhood cancer, obesity and autism have increased by alarming rates since the 1970s. It is predicted that children growing up today are likely to have shorter lifespans than their parents.

Health & Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., calls this report a “diagnosis”, and says “the prescription will follow in 100 days”, likely sometime in August.

This report is truly the first of its kind, and we want to give it the credit that is due, especially if the action steps taken based on this report’s findings are truly enough to result in significant positive change.

Unfortunately, although EMFs were mentioned in the report, it was only one brief paragraph that touched on the potential harms – and the dangers were disappointingly downplayed.

EMF section of the MAHA report misses the mark

Throughout the otherwise comprehensive 73-page MAHA report, which extensively explores several influences and elements considered harmful to children today, only one short paragraph was dedicated to EMFs, on page 44.  It was tucked into a broader section addressing environmental chemicals, but many critics say that there should have been a full section of the report dedicated to EMFs as one of the main drivers of chronic health issues in children.

This is the full statement concerning EMF exposure in the MAHA report, along with several numerical citations:

“Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR): an exposure due to the proliferation of cell phones, WiFi routers, cell towers, and wearables. Some studies have linked EMR exposure to reduced sperm counts and motility but not quality. The NIH’s National Toxicology Program identified “clear evidence” of DNA damage and increased cancer risk in rats. However, a recent systematic review of over 50 studies found low to inadequate evidence on impact in children and called for more high-quality research.”

In comparison with the dedicated work that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. himself, who spearheaded the MAHA report, has done to bring awareness to the imminent and extensive dangers of EMFs, the casual and light nature of this paragraph is both confusing and frustrating.  There is much speculation that this statement was written or heavily doctored by a telecom industry representative infiltrating the government with corporate lobbying money – which is quite ironic, considering that the report devotes a whole section to the serious issue of corporate lobbyists and their influence on public health policy.

This paragraph selectively cites a 2022 systematic review that found “low to inadequate evidence of impact on children”, calling for “more research”, which is a well known delaying tactic by polluting industries of all types.  The report ignores larger, more recent and incriminating study reviews, including a systematic review from the World Health Organization (WHO) from 2025 that concluded there is “high certainty” evidence that cell phone radiation causes two types of cancer in animals.  There are several more recent study reviews, as well as an extensive body of well designed and executed scientific research, that the MAHA report completely fails to mention.

The EMF paragraph also contains an erroneous statement about the effects of EMFs on sperm quality.  It stated that sperm counts and motility were negatively affected by EMFs, but not sperm quality. However, in the medical field, sperm quality is assessed by looking at a combination of several factors, including sperm motility.  If sperm motility was negatively affected by EMFs, that automatically means overall sperm quality had to have been affected by EMFs as well.

Dr. Robert Brown, a diagnostic radiologist with more than 30 years of experience, points out that the statement doesn’t make sense, and was likely added by someone without a background in the biomedical research field.

“By affecting sperm counts and motility, sperm quality is affected,” Brown pointed out, then goes on further to state, “I wonder who added this erroneous phrase, and find it interesting that it was added in the same document in which a separate section discusses corporate capture and the revolving door.”

The report’s silence on the influence of corporate capture as applied to EMF dangers definitely raises questions.  A 2021 court ruling in the Environmental Health Trust vs. FCC case declared the FCC’s decision not to reevaluate their 1996 wireless exposure guidelines to be “arbitrary and capricious,” and an order by the judge compels the FCC to revise these grossly outdated guidelines, which they have still failed to do several years after the ruling.

It seems quite clear that the telecom industry and the governmental branches that presumably regulate this industry are using tactics of delay and dismissal to avert the public’s eyes to the problem, even while other timely public health issues are finally being addressed in the MAHA report.

Multiple recent bills by the current administration have focused on expanding wireless proliferation even more, including a newly approved spectrum auction in the 600 MHz range, as well as a new bill proposing to grant the FCC even more authority:  Section 40002 of HR 1 would trigger provisions that allow telecoms to place an unlimited number of antennas on existing antenna structures without notice or approval.

Here is a letter you can print out and send to your local officials, urging them to reject Section 40002 of HR 1 on the argument that the FCC still hasn’t complied with a 2021 court order compelling them to update their outdated wireless exposure guidelines from 1996:

Children’s Health Defense fights back with the 704 No More initiative

An organization dedicated to protecting children from harmful environmental and medical exposures, Children’s Health Defense (CHD) is committed to ending the rise in childhood health epidemics by holding corporations and regulatory agencies accountable, and pushing for stronger safety standards.

One of CHD’s recent initiatives directly addresses the weak link in the law that is responsible for allowing telecoms to get away with unchecked placement of cell towers in populated areas, especially in neighborhoods and near schools:  Section 704 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996.

This law prevents local regulation of wireless infrastructure based on health and environmental effects, and is widely considered to be unconstitutional, because the law deprives states of their traditional police powers designed to protect the health and welfare of their citizens.  The 704 No More initiative seeks to overturn this law, restoring the legal ability of local governments to have a say in the placement of cell towers within their communities.

Section 704 undermines public health, environmental protections, and individual rights.  It allows for the enforcement of the FCC’s outdated RF radiation guidelines, ignoring mounting evidence of harm, particularly to children.

As one of the causes Blushield supports with monthly donations, a portion of your Blushield EMF protection purchase is donated to support the 704 No More initiative, as well as CHD’s Stop 5G initiative.

704 No More is a powerful initiative that gets right to the heart of the issue, as Section 704 currently grants legal protection to the telecom industry from any individual and local community seeking to challenge the inappropriate and dangerous placement of cell towers near residences and schools.

The initiative argues that this legal framework must be dismantled because:

  • RF radiation below FCC limits has been shown to harm children’s health and the environment.
  • Children harmed by RF radiation exposure are left without remedies or compensation.
  • FCC guidelines are outdated, do not take children into account, and fail to consider current scientific evidence.
  • Excessive FCC authority overrides local control and judicial oversight.


Led by expert attorney Scott McCollough, the actions being implemented by 704 No More include strategic litigation, public education, grassroots mobilization, and legislative advocacy.

Updating FCC standards and curtailing federal overreach are critical steps toward protecting our children’s well-being. By restoring local authority and individual rights, we can build a healthier, safer future for our children.

Frequently asked questions

Invisible forces are part of modern life, but their impact doesn’t have to define you. Blushield works quietly in the background, supporting a more stable, balanced internal state so you can focus, rest, and perform at your best.

What does a Blushield device actually do?

It doesn't block or shield EMF. Instead, Blushield is designed to support the body's natural response to everyday electromagnetic exposure. By focusing on biological support rather than altering environmental signals, it takes a different approach to EMF protection.

Which device is right for me?

Plug-in units (Premium, Ultimate, Phi) cover your home. Portables cover you when you leave it. Most people start with one of each: a plug-in for the house and a portable for travel, work, and the car. If you're not sure, use our Find Your Device tool or message us.

What's your return and warranty policy?

30-day limited money-back guarantee on every device (restocking fee applies - see our full return policy). Stationary and portable units carry a 1-year warranty. If anything extends past that, contact us.

Do I still need it if I have low EMF readings at home?

Yes. EMF meters measure intensity, not biological impact. Even low-level exposure from Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, smart meters, cell towers, and nearby homes accumulates 24/7. Blushield works on the body's response, so it helps regardless of what a meter reads.

How long until I feel a difference?

Some people feel calmer or sleep better within the first night. For others it's a few weeks of gradual change - better focus, deeper sleep, and less fatigue. A small number notice a short adjustment period as the body recalibrates. Everyone responds differently, so give it time to become part of your daily environment and let the benefits build naturally.

Is there science behind this?

Yes. Blushield is built on decades of research into how the body responds to coherent vs. incoherent electromagnetic signals. We have independent studies, HRV data, and live-blood analyses on our Science page. We don't make medical claims. We point you to the data and let you decide.
