π± EMF Radiation and Health Concerns
A growing body of scientific evidence indicates that the radiation emitted from our devices can harm our health. However, this doesn't mean we need to abandon modern technology. This video offers four simple tips to reduce exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs). Sponsored by DefenderShield, the most effective EMF radiation protection for mobile devices, this episode starts with a quick definition of EMFs. EMFs, or electromagnetic fields, are invisible areas of energy, often referred to as radiation, associated with the use of electrical devices. They can be problematic since humans are electrical beings, and the introduction of EMFs into our fields can cause health issues. Sensitivity to EMFs varies among individuals, with some experiencing discomfort and others unaffected. Despite the lack of extensive long-term data, the World Health Organization classified EMFs as possible carcinogens in 2011, particularly concerning brain cancer and cellphone use. Children are especially vulnerable due to their smaller size and thinner skulls. Nevertheless, there are straightforward ways to mitigate exposure.
π Smart Usage of Smartphones
The first tip emphasizes being smart with your smartphone. Phones come with warnings not to place them directly against your head, such as the iPhone 5 manual's recommendation to keep it 10 millimeters away. Using speaker mode or headsets can significantly reduce exposure. Avoid carrying phones on your body, like in pockets or bra straps. If necessary, use airplane mode when the phone is on you. Additionally, don't use your smartphone as an alarm clock; opt for a battery-operated clock instead.
π Reducing Home Wi-Fi Exposure
The second tip is to manage home Wi-Fi usage. While it's common to leave Wi-Fi running constantly, turning it off at night can significantly reduce EMF exposure during sleep. For even better protection, consider using a wired connection. The narrator mentions using a wired connection for work and only activating Wi-Fi for activities like watching movies.
π‘οΈ Using EMF Protection Devices
The third tip involves using protective devices. Despite the narrator's reliance on technology for work, there are products available that can reduce EMF exposure from devices. DefenderShield offers cases and shields that protect against EMFs. The narrator shares personal experiences with various DefenderShield products, including laptop shields and phone cases, highlighting their effectiveness and ease of use. DefenderShield is offering a special discount for viewers with the coupon code 'mamanatural.'
ποΈ Shielding Against Smart Meters
The fourth tip addresses smart meters, which emit constant EMFs. The narrator shares a personal experience of difficulty sleeping and headaches due to proximity to a smart meter. Using shielding materials or relocating away from the smart meter can help reduce exposure. It's also possible to request a manual meter from the gas company for a fee. This tip emphasizes being aware of smart meter locations in relation to sleeping areas and taking steps to mitigate their impact.
π Additional Resources and Community Engagement
The narrator concludes by summarizing the four tips and offering a free cheat sheet with ten simple tips to reduce EMF exposure, available through a link in the video description. Viewers are encouraged to share their experiences and thoughts about EMFs in the comments, fostering community engagement and awareness.

II em f's a growing body of scientific
evidence shows that the radiation
admitted from our devices can be harmful
to our health but that doesn't mean
we've got trade in our iPhones for a
landline in this video I'll give you
four simple tips to reduce your exposure
this episode is sponsored by defender
shield the most effective EMF radiation
protection for mobile devices ever
developed ok let's start with a quick
definition EMF or electromagnetic fields
are invisible areas of energy often
refer to as radiation that are
associated with the use of electrical
devices are they dangerous well he think
about it
we are electrical beings ok we're we've
got electrons and as these EMFs come
into our fields it can cause issues some
people are more sensitive to them than
others I know for myself for example
it's been years since I've talked on my
cell phone directly to my ear because I
can literally feel it I feel like my
mind is getting scrambled so I've taken
some actions to offset that for other
people they don't notice it at all and
it doesn't bother them so it's kind of a
personalized thing and the deal is we
kind of are guinea pigs there's not a
ton of data around really the long-term
health consequences of these EMFs now in
2011 the World Health Organization did
classify EMFs as possible carcinogens in
humans and that was particularly
relevant to some studies around brain
cancer and cellphone use in fact we are
exposed to a hundred million times more
EMS and our grandparents were pretty
scary stuff so we are guinea pigs but
I'm particularly concerned about
children because they are more
vulnerable they're smaller their skulls
are thinner so we just want to be
careful but I don't want to sit here and
just make everyone paranoid and worried
there are some really simple easy things
you can do to really offset your
exposure and the harmful effects tip
number one be smart with your smartphone
did you know that all phones actually
come with a warning not to put it
directly to your head in fact in the
iPhone 5 manual it says to put it 10
millimeters away from your body but can
you imagine someone talking like this no
so don't use phone calls directly like
this instead use
speaker speaker is phenomenal you reduce
your exposure huge if that's not an
option then use a headset also think
about this on your body I know so many
people that keep this in their front
pocket their back pocket some women put
it in their bra strap that is a huge
no-no if you absolutely have to have it
on your body put it in airplane mode in
fact airplane mode is your friend if you
have this thing at work set it away from
you so that's a real big key very simple
thing to do also don't use your
smartphone as your alarm clock okay you
want this thing away from you as you
sleep get a battery-operated clock
instead tip number two easy on the home
Wi-Fi we used to have our Wi-Fi running
all the time never thought twice about
it okay it's very common but something
really simple you can do is just turn
your Wi-Fi off at night because then at
least those eight or nine hours there's
no Wi-Fi signal going out and you're
going to really reduce your exposure
even better try a wired option in fact
we have this awesome router that lets us
turn our Wi-Fi on or off with a touch of
a button so when Michael and I work at
home we actually use a wired connection
but then if we want to watch movies or
something like that at night on Apple TV
then we'll turn our Wi-Fi on tip number
three get some protection now look I'm
not going to tell you not to use devices
my whole work is online so I'm never
going to stop using my laptop my cell
phone and so on but the key is you can
actually get cases that will protect and
offset these EMFs and make them safer
devices and that brings us to our
sponsor message defender shield comm has
the most effective EMF radiation
protection for laptops tablets and cell
phones if you go to their website you'll
see they have independent FCC certified
lab testing that shows their technology
blocks virtually a hundred percent of
harmful EMF radiation from electronic
devices years ago I bought their first
product which is the defender pad I
could use it kind of as a tabletop
put it on my lap and then use my
computer so and stay safe so I
absolutely love this product still use
it to this day
a little while later and when Griffin
started getting a little bit more screen
time we got him this for our iPad this
again is a defender shield product so
Griffin can have this on his lap use
this little device and be safe
and finally the newest product I got
from defender shield is this
iPhone case so there's my phone you'd
actually talk with the lid kind of
closed like this and it protects you
from that EMF radiation
so right now defender shield calm is
offering a special discount for my
natural viewers you get 10% off with any
order with the coupon code mama natural
and they also ship for free anywhere in
the US tip number four stuff out that
smart meter Michael and I in our old
place used to be in the master bedroom
and about six months in we decided to
move downstairs to the smaller room and
once we did that we started noticing
that we were having a hard time falling
asleep we were getting some headaches
and it finally dawned on me that outside
of that bedroom on the outside of the
house was a smart meter and our heads
were really close to it and it really
made a difference I mean because that
thing does constantly emit EMFs so we
actually bought some shielding materials
you can find it on Amazon and you know
kind of block that whole area of the
wall and it did make a big difference so
in your home notice where your smart
meter is is it right near your you know
son's bedroom is that near your
daughter's you know or is it attached to
your garage where you have a safe
distance if it is really close you can
get some shielding materials or you can
even call your gas company and get your
digital machine change to a manual one
there will be a fee so that's your
choice but that is an option for you so
there you have it four simple steps that
you can implement that will help reduce
your family's EMF exposure now if you
want to learn more about this topic or
if you're concerned or just want more
tips and tricks I have something for you
I put it together it is a free cheat
sheet it's ten simple tips to help
reduce your EMF exposure I'll have a
link to that in the video description
below and now we would love to hear from
you do you know about EMFs you do
anything to protect your family do you
even notice them are you sensitive to
them share with me in the comments below
