EMF stands for electromagnetic fields, which are generated by the interaction of electric and magnetic fields. Electromagnetic fields are present everywhere in our environment, and many of our modern devices, such as cell phones, computers, and televisions, also emit electromagnetic fields.
Studies show suggested that prolonged exposure to high levels of electromagnetic fields increase the risk of cancer and other health problems.
Our bodies rely on various electrical processes to function properly. For example, the nervous system relies on electrical impulses to transmit information between the brain and the rest of the body. When a nerve cell, or neuron, is stimulated, it generates an electrical impulse, or action potential, which travels down the length of the neuron to its end, where it releases chemicals that trigger the next neuron in the chain.
Similarly, the heart relies on electrical impulses to maintain its rhythm and to pump blood throughout the body. The electrical signals that control the heartbeat originate in a specialized group of cells called the sinoatrial (SA) node, which acts as the heart’s natural pacemaker. From there, the electrical signals travel through the heart’s conduction system, causing the heart muscles to contract and pump blood.
In addition to these examples, there are many other electrical processes that occur in the body, such as the contraction of muscles, the function of the kidneys and other organs, and the regulation of various hormones and enzymes. All of these processes are essential to maintaining our overall health and wellbeing.
EMFs change adversely effect the electrical processes in our body.
