An Electromagnetic Field (EMF) is a physics’ phenomenon, a wave of energy that moves at the speed of light.

Visible light is one form of EMF, X-Rays and Gamma-Rays are both EMFs, Wi-Fi technology, Bluetooth and Cellular Phone communication, all use Electromagnetic Waves to send information.

With Sensitivity to EMFs we refer to a condition currently under research and not yet recognized by the medical community. People affected report a variety of symptoms when exposed to low energy Man-made EMFs (e.g. Wi-Fi, bluetooth, and others), at level well below the legal limits.

“Radiowave Sickness”, then “Microwave Sickness” and now “Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity” was described since the 1950s in military Radar operators and then in the general public with the advent of cellphone communication. This condition included among the main symptoms cognitive and memory issues, also known as Brain Fog.

Introduction

EMFs are divided in categories by their oscillation frequency. The ones that cause brain fog are the Radiofrequency radiations, with a frequency between 20 kilohertz and 300 Gigahertz. Such waves are emitted by cellphones and any device that uses wireless communication. Radio waves also come from other electric appliances, which emit radio waves as a side effect, one such device is the common energy saving lamp.

The other harmful category of EMF are Extremely Low Frequencies, 0 hertz to 20 kilohertz. This category pertains less to brain fog but is still associated with a number of symptoms and diseases. These are emittend by any house appliance, wiring in the walls and high voltage power lines.

Symptoms

Anxiety, heart palpitations and irregular heartbeat.
