Hidden EMF Risks during Travel

May 20, 2023

As we all try to gradually recover from the pandemic, the desire to travel and explore new destinations has never been stronger. Summer 2023 promises a renewed sense of adventure and an opportunity to make unforgettable memories. However, amidst the excitement, it’s important to be aware of potential risks that may not be so apparent – the hidden dangers of electromagnetic fields (EMFs).

EMFs are everywhere in our modern world, emanating from various sources such as cell phones, Wi-Fi routers, and electronic devices. They are a form of non-ionizing radiation that can penetrate our bodies and potentially impact our health. While the effects of EMFs are still being studied, it is crucial to remain cautious and minimize exposure, especially during travel when we are often exposed to unfamiliar environments and additional sources of EMFs.

Now, it’s important to recognize that different modes of travel present varying levels of EMF exposure. Airports, airplanes, and train stations are bustling with Wi-Fi networks, security scanners, and communication devices, all contributing to heightened EMF levels. Hotels and accommodations often have multiple wireless devices, making it important to choose EMF-safe lodging options. Road trips may expose us to EMFs from navigation systems, car electronics, and nearby power lines. Even outdoor adventures can have hidden EMF risks, such as electric fences or power lines in remote areas.

The Long-Term Effects of Hidden EMF Risks

While the immediate effects of EMFs are still a topic of ongoing research, long-term exposure to high levels of EMFs has been associated with potential health risks. Research has suggested links between EMF exposure and increased risk of certain cancers, reproductive issues, neurological disorders, and even impacts on sleep quality and overall well-being. Being mindful of these risks during summer travel can contribute to better long-term health outcomes.

Fortunately, there are steps you can take to minimize your exposure to EMFs and stay EMF-safe during your summer travels. Consider the following:

Limit device usage: Reduce the time spent using electronic devices and switch to airplane mode when not in use to minimize EMF emissions.
Use EMF protection products: Invest in EMF modulating products such as our LifeTune devices to neutralize the radiation
Choose accommodations wisely: Research and select accommodations that prioritize EMF safety, offering wired internet connections and low EMF environments.
Keep a safe distance: Maintain distance from devices emitting high levels of EMFs, including Wi-Fi routers, laptops, and cell phones. Avoid carrying your phone in your pocket or holding it close to your body for extended periods.
Spend time in nature: Embrace outdoor activities and connect with nature, away from sources of high EMF exposure. Try engaging in exercises like grounding, to reduce your EMF impact.

By incorporating these practices into your travel routine, you can minimize your exposure to hidden EMF risks and enjoy a summer filled with adventure and peace of mind.

How EMF Radiation Impacts Athletic Performance

As an athlete, you’ve probably analyzed several aspects of your life and routine to optimize your performance. You may have started a regimented diet to eat more macro- and micro-nutrients to energize your body on and off the field. You may have taken more supplements or reduced your intake of alcohol to make sure you’re more hydrated. You may have taken ice baths to improve muscle inflammation and help with recovery.

However, you may be ignoring an aspect of your routine that inadvertently affects your performance — something more nefarious and hidden than you realize: EMF radiation.

What is the Blood Brain Barrier? EMF + the BBB

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a highly selective membrane that separates the circulating blood from the brain’s extracellular fluid and maintains a stable environment for optimal neural function. However, electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation from electronic devices can significantly affect the BBB’s permeability, potentially leading to harmful consequences for brain function. Long-term exposure to EMF radiation could potentially lead to a range of neurological disorders. It is essential to take steps to reduce exposure to EMF radiation to minimize the risk of neurological disorders and promote optimal brain health.

The Role of EMFs in EHS & Lyme Disease

Lyme disease is a tick-borne illness caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi. It can cause a range of symptoms, including fever, headache, fatigue, and a characteristic skin rash. While Lyme disease can usually be Recent research suggests that exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) may worsen Lyme disease symptoms or contribute to the development of persistent symptoms. Some studies suggest that exposure to EMFs can cause oxidative stress in cells infected with Borrelia burgdorferi, disrupt the blood-brain barrier (BBB), and exacerbate symptoms of Lyme disease.
