EMF Definitions and InformationEMF
Electro Magnetic Fields
An electromagnetic field (also EM field or EMF) is produced by accelerating electric charges at certain cycles or frequency. This field can propagate around electric cables and appliances or can be transmitted as radio waves (RF) . The spectrum or frequency range of EM(F)ields ( shown below ) is made up of man made EM(F)ields and naturally occurring EM(F)ields. EM(F)ields and frequency are mutually dependent on each other.
Frequency (hz)
Cycles per second measured in hertz (e.g power cables in your house with a voltage of 230v @ 50 Hz or in America 110 volts @ 60Hz. Think of the Voltage as `water pressure` in your water pipes and imagine the water being pushed back and forth from your tap to your local water pump 50 times per second. You now have a concept of 50 hz. This constant cycling back and forth creates a field of energy around the cables in your house. (See diagram below.)
When an Electromagnetic Field is created it is composed of two different but related fields — electric and magnetic as in diagram below.
Electric fields
Electric fields are created by voltage and measured in volts per metre (v/m). The higher the voltage, the stronger the field. An electric field will exist even when there is no current flowing.
Magnetic Fields
Magnetic fields are measured in Gauss (G) and milliGauss (mG) or Tesla and microTesla (mT). 10 milliGauss equals 1 microTesla.
What does all this mean?
The 50 (hz ) Electromagnetic (Field) is a electric & magnetic field that surrounds the cable connecting your house to the transformer in your street and the wiring and appliances in your house. This field rapidly expands and collapses when the voltage switches back and fourth between the transformer and your house 50 times or cycles per second (50hz) and is known as Alternating Current or AC.
- This man made EM(F)ield continuously oscillates from the cables and plugs in your house to approximately 2 meters, but is particularly concentrated at half a meter (500mm). This energy field cycles into anyone or thing and disrupts cell communication and causes stress to the central nervous system . This field can interfere with other EM(F)ields like radio waves which is known as RFI (see below)
- A different example of man made EM(F)ield and varying frequency (hz) is 5G. This is in the Radio Frequency (RF) range and is man made (nnEMF). This has a frequency of up to 20+ Ghz (Gigahertz) 20 billion cycles per second, which is polarizing - man made - millimeter wave technology. (Please note this range of frequency is subject to change by the authorities)
- Both examples are stressors on the body and negatively impact your health particularly while you are sleeping.
Please watch two short clips to give a basic understanding of the unnatural fields that are created and how they propagate.

nnEMF
non native (man made) Electric magnetic fields.
These artificial EMFs are technically referred to as ‘non-native EMFs’ or ‘nnEMFs' for short. Artificial forms of EMFs typically have alternating or polarizing fields or pulsed radiation that can disrupt many processes that maintain optimal health such as lowering sleep quality, altering the gut biome and damaging our DNA over time.
EMR
Electromagnetic Radiation
Electromagnetic radiation is self-sustaining energy with electric and magnetic field components. Light and radio broadcasts are electromagnetic waves. The waves propagate through a vacuum at the speed of light.
RFI and EMI
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is unwanted noise or interference in an electrical path or circuit caused by an outside source. It is also known as radio frequency interference (RFI). EMI can cause electronics to operate poorly, malfunction or stop working completely (dirty electricity). A source of Dirty electricity is switch mode power supplies. A common example of EMI is when a cellphone is placed near powered audio equipment or speakers and it causes a noise or series of beeps to be heard.
Dirty Electricity
Dirty power is a distortion of the em(f)ield and power going through the cable. It is a combination of RFI and EMI propagating on the cables in your house from cheap poorly designed power supplies and devices which contribute to disruption of our bioenergy and homeostasis.
