We are surrounded by EMF radiation. Is the combination of all the things that emit radiation too much for the human body to manage? Every modern convenience seems to be a culprit of EMF radiation being spewed into our atmosphere. Naming a few of the things such as power lines, and any device that uses electricity or batteries is a small culprit because these thing emit radiation. Yes, it is in small amounts, but when you consider all those devices it’s like having 100 pennies so you actually have a dollar. Microwave ovens, cell phones, computers, TV’s, hair dryers, electric shavers, toasters, refrigerators, electric blankets, smart meters, Wi-Fi, electric vehicles, CT scans and so much more. Some studies claim that the radiation drops based on the distance you are away from the device. Example would be if you are a foot away from your cell phone talking and using the speaker will produce less radiation to your body than if you were holding the phone at your ear.
Imagine you are traveling in your electric vehicle, with your cell phone, close by and your computer sitting in the seat next to you and the radiation being produced by the batteries that operate your vehicle. Is that too much? You are essentially sitting in a confined area with a steady pinging of radiation bouncing all around you.
For most people there is not a significant issue with all the radiation around us or is there? Since fatigue can be the symptom of so many things it is hard to say exactly what is causing it from one person to the next.
