Like most families, my husband, son, and I utilize many wireless devices throughout our daily lives: laptop and desktop computers, cell phones, Bluetooth speakers, gaming systems... I know how easy it is to begin working or scrolling or playing games and then realize several hours have gone by.

In many cases, it can’t be prevented; this is the world we live in. Everything is digitized and messaging is 24/7. Not to mention, at the height of the pandemic, social media and online communication were our primary sources of connection. But this does not change the fact that wireless technology comes with some unwanted side effects.

After spending long hours working online, navigating social media, or gaming, have you or those around you ever experienced the following?:

• Decreased attention span
• Inability to concentrate
• Headaches or blurred vision
• Irritability
• Apathy or anti-social behaviours
• Interrupted sleep patterns

These are all symptoms of exposure and sensitivity to EMFs (Electromagnetic Fields), and studies have shown that children are even more susceptible. In extreme cases, people can develop Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS), which is a condition recognized by the World Health Organization. Unfortunately, the more dependent our employment, communications, and research are on wireless devices, the more difficult it is to avoid lengthy exposure. In fact, as Forbes has reported, the US Military is currently investigating how wireless frequencies in the cockpit affect the cognitive abilities of pilots, and whether or not EMFs contribute to aircraft mishaps and crashes: https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaelpeck/ 2020/09/14/cockpit-electromagnetic-fields-are-harming-pilots-the-us-military-fears/? sh=6c66bb603d57

EMF shielding products are one way to cut down on the potential impact of EMFs on our bodies. Items made with pure silver, in particular, can effectively repel electromagnetic and radio frequency radiation, 5G frequencies, and Wifi and Bluetooth waves.
