You’ve certainly heard about the dangers of electromagnetic frequencies, or EMF. Discover how to protect yourself from it!
What Are Electromagnetic Fields?
Electromagnetic fields are areas of energy that surround electronic devices. The World Health Organization (WHO) explains that the electric fields are created by differences in voltage and magnetic fields are created when the electric current flows. According to WHO, electromagnetic fields affect us because our human bodies have their own electric and biochemical responses (e.g., nervous system, digestion, brain function, heart function). Exposure to EMFs can interact with your body in adverse ways.
Optimal Health Warrior Quote Sensitivity to electromagnetic radiation is the emerging health problem of the 21st century. It is imperative health practitioners, governments, schools and parents learn more about it. The human health stakes are significant.
Transcript (Listen to the Full Podcast Here) Ameer: Hey Elizabeth, welcome to the Optimal Health Show. How you doing today?
Elizabeth: I’m doing great. I’m always doing even fantastic when I get the opportunity to share what I’ve been researching. Ameer: I’m super excited though for today because it’s a rarity in today’s day and age to find somebody so passionate and well-educated when it comes to EMF, and everybody out there in the Optimal Health Nation knows that I’m a huge fan of educating people about EMF and dangers that it actually has for you. I’m just quickly curious though. What kind of sparked your interest in EMF to begin with? Elizabeth: My experience, I’ve been a medical researcher for almost, over 30 years now, and each one of the things that I have delved into have resulted out of my experience, out of my experiencing something that the doctors could not help me with. So my first book that I wrote, I spent 11 years researching women’s ovarian hormones because the doctors could not help me when my hormones were so out of balance after I lost them because they took my ovaries. I’m a scuba diver, and I started a book about sunscreens because I saw the coral reefs dying around the world. I am very blessed that I was able to start scuba-diving 50 years ago when corals were pristine. When I realized that sunscreens were killing the coral, I decided to write a book about it. Even though I am a menopause practitioner and a hormone specialist, as I began the book, I thought “Why in the world am I writing about sunscreens when I’m a hormone specialist?” But very quickly, after identifying that sunscreens are potent, potent hormones, strong antitestosterones, very disruptive to fetal development, I realized why I needed to be a hormone specialist to write that book. And then on the electromagnetic radiation, I am electromagnetic-sensitive myself, and I have known that for three, four years. I started having problems being in WiFied buildings. I would get dizzy, vertigo, nausea, needing to leave the buildings because I would feel so sick. So, when the smart meters went into our neighborhood, the utility smart meters from the electrical company, I had already known that I did not want a smart meter in my house because I became aware of them. When they started going into Northern California, I live in Southern California in the USA, and Northern California got them about two years before we did, and I started hearing from women saying “I must be going into early menopause.” They were calling me because I am a menopause practitioner and I consult nationwide. Actually up in the Canada also. And I was hearing from them saying I’ve got headaches, insomnia. These women were 40, 41, 43, and when I looked at their profile that I had them fill out, it was like there was no hormone connection here, and as I talked to each one of them, the common connection was that they had had a smart meter installed in their house within weeks or months of these headaches and insomnia. So when I found out that they were going to be putting them into our neighborhood, luckily by then a California judge had ruled that it couldn’t be mandatory, so we opted out, and I educated my neighbors on both sides and had them opt out, so we didn’t get the smart meter, they didn’t get one, and yet, the closest one is 60 feet across the street from me, we’re in individual homes here, as well as behind my backyard. Ameer: I just want to pause for something. Why are smart meters dangerous in the first place?
Elizabeth: The safe frequency is microwave ovens, 2.4 gigahertz, and they are pulsing multiple times a minute, 24 hours a day, and the difference between ionizing radiation and non-ionizing, ionizing is the xray and the nuclear. Those are called ionizing. They break DNA immediately. The non-ionizing is we come down into the frequencies that are being used: smart meters, WiFi, cellphones. They vibrate the DNA to the point that it finally does break, it just doesn’t break it immediately. And that’s the difference between ionizing and non-ionizing. And so when you are pulsing DNA multiple times a minute, 24 hours a day, the DNA will eventually break, and the lab animals show us those breaks in the DNA will repair if we can get away from the radiation. They remove the lab animals from the radiation the DNA repairs, but now that smart meters are pulsing multiple times a minute, 24 hours a day, there’s no ability for the body to do its rest and repair. Ameer: Is the same thing happening with say cellphones and WiFi routers? Elizabeth: It’s not as pulsing. With the WiFi it’s not as regular problem. The cellphones are 2.4 gigahertz, and the problem with the WiFi is that they’re moving up well into the radar range. They’re moving up. Some of them are now up into 60-80 gigahertz. Radar is 1 to 100 gigahertz, so we’re well up into the radar range of these things coming at us. And so what I want to say is that our DNA no longer has the ability to repair at night which it could do before smart meters went in. Ameer: Now, let’s just get into more dangers of what EMF does. Like let’s talk about WiFi routers and let’s talk about cellphones for example. Elizabeth: They cause damage at every cell. They actually put holes into every cell membrane, they put holes into our blood-brain barrier, wholes in our whole gut lining, and so I liken it to we’re being machine-gunned, so we’re getting all these holes all over our cells to no longer maintain their integrity. They can no longer keep in what they need to keep in and keep out what they need to keep you, and so our cells are cells are essentially leaking. We’re into calcium imbalance, and calcium is critical to maintain a very finite balance. Very small range of calcium that needs to happen. And now we have all these calcium leaking out of our cells. The blood brain barrier and the whole gut lining ti designed to protect us from microorganisms, from fungi, from chemicals, and because they’re leaking, they no longer are protected barriers. If we have chemicals in our body which we almost all do now because we’re surrounded by so many chemicals on a daily basis, or if we have bacteria, microorganisms, parasites in our body, they have greater access to go inside our cells and to go inside our brain, and through our intestinal lining and leak in to our blood. Ameer: Are there some types of testing we can do to see for EMF sensitive? Elizabeth: This has been a very difficult thing. Very difficult for us to figure that out because the sensitivity I think is below the level of our instrumentation to be able to detect it, like for mercury, one of the reasons that I’m electromagnetic sensitive is that I have a history of mercury poisoning. I was acutely poisoned 14 years ago by a dentist and almost died, I had a such a toxic mercury load. And I’m finding that half of my consults that are electromagnetic-sensitive have a history of mercury poisoning, so I think heavy metal poisoning plays a role in this extreme electromagnetic sensitivity that we are experiencing. Ameer: Well besides the smart meters and everything and besides your cellphone, are there any other like real big offenders that we should watch out for or some kind of hidden dangers? Elizabeth: Well, I think the fact that the WiFi meters, WiFi is everywhere, in all of our businesses, no matter where we go, anywhere. The cellphones are being carried by everybody, so we have billions of
people on the planet all radiating their cellphones, we have the smart meters now radiating constantly, so there is nowhere to go. I have people call me who are electromagnetic-sensitive, there is nowhere for them to go to escape because the cell towers are everywhere. The goal for America was 98% coverage, so no matter where you were in America geographically, you would be able to have cellphone reception no matter where you were, and the smart meters now being everywhere, one of the articles I just read, they think because they’re all on the same frequency, that they are increasing the damage because it’s setting up a harmonic resonance of all of them being on the same frequency. Ameer: Have you seen a connection between say the EMF happening today and the Schumann residency? Elizabeth: Well, that’s going to be an interesting thing to see how that plays out, because we really are disrupting the electrical energy of the entire planet, of our entire organism, of all of the animals, all the insects, plants. Plants, when you put them near a smart meter, they die, and we have great pictures of some girls in Denmark, nine-graders, who were feeling sick at school and they’d go home where they didn’t have WiFi and they’d feel okay, they go back and they’d feel sick. And they decided to do an experiment and put garden crest seeds in the room with the WiFi router and then in a room away from the WiFi router, and the ones near the WiFi router didn’t grow, they looked dead, and the ones that were far away from the WiFi router grew beautifully. So we are harming every single life on the planet. When you think about it, all of our cells have an electrical charge, and so when we put all these extraneous electrical radiation, there is an effect, and we are seeing it and it’s growing weekly. That’s the thing that I’m seeing. Weekly, more and more people are sick. Weekly, more and more people are saying “Hey, I realize I’m sick from my cellphone” or “I’m sick from my WiFied house,” or “I get sick when I walk in WiFi buildings,” so more and more people are recognizing it. Ameer: So how can we start EMF-proofing ourselves? Elizabeth: It really is take and look at your entire house. You don’t need to have a WiFi. You can go back to a wired router. You don’t need to have cordless phones. Cordless phones, when you put a meter next to them, they are just as damaging as a cellphone. And I have helped people that skin itching is one of the symptoms because the radiations are putting holes in what are called mast cells in our skin. These mast cells contain granules that have histamine and heparin, so those open up… Ameer: I just want to pause for a second. So people who are histamine-sensitive, they may be then EMFsensitive? Elizabeth: Absolutely. If they are having problems with histamine, that’s true. That was one of the symptoms. When the smart meters went into our neighborhood, even though the closest one was 60 feet away from me, within 30 days, four days of installation on our street, I started getting itchy body sores on my ankle. In a week it was at my leg, in a month it was over my entire body. I thought I was in a Chinese torture camp, the itching was so intense and the bleeding was so extreme. During that time, if my husband turned on the TV in the next room, my skin would just open up and bleed. So it is cumulative. So by the time we finally got the sensitivity, it’s cumulative just like x-rays that’s why they put the lead apron in the dental chair, this is cumulative too. It just depends on how long we’ve been alive and I’m 71 so I’ve been here awhile, and also how much exposure we’ve had to computers and to all the electricity. They’re identifying that those men who have worked in places that produce a lot of electromagnetic radiation, they are the ones who have Alzheimer’s, they’re the ones who have developed Lou Gehrig’s Disease, ALS.
Ameer: Have you seen the studies in like Ontario for the linesmen? So Ontario [inaudible-00:14:09] they have ones of the highest rates of leukemia. Elizabeth: Absolutely. That makes all the sense in the world because they’ve identified leukemia being around the cell towers. Brazil did a great study. They made sure the number of cancer cases as opposed to the distance from the cell towers in the third largest city in Brazil, and there was absolutely no doubt that closer you were to cell towers, the more number of cancers and it didn’t matter where they were. They were all throughout the whole body. I’ve written a book called “EMF Freedom Solutions for the 21st Century Pollution,” and in there I described all the biochemical reasons for all these things happening. The Alzheimer’s. these radiations kill the cells in the membranes related to memory, and our kids are getting this, they’re calling it digital dementia. Our kids are losing their memory just the same as Alzheimer’s, and Alzheimer’s has absolutely increased since electricity literally. There was a study out of Europe where they have a lot of electric heat and they identified one of the three commonalities among the Alzheimer’s people were that they lived in electric-heated home. So just electricity alone is causing breakdown of our tissue. The radiation also kills cells in the brains in the cerebellum that are related to fine motor coordination, so people are having tremors and it could very well be that this is the increase in Parkinson’s also. The other tragedy that we’re seeing is that the cells related to memory, they’re called pyramidal cells, as well as the cells in the cerebellum, they’re called Purkinje cells, both of those cells make GABA and GABA is our brain’s primary neurotransmitter. That is our calming, sedating neurotransmitter. We really need that to stay calm, and I’m thinking that one of the things we’re realizing, the irritability of people, the explosion of people, is that they really don’t have GABA anymore. Alzheimer’s patients show very low GABA. Autism children show low GABA, so this is all part of a whole scenario of impacting our entire biochemistry from these radiations. Ameer: What can one do then to say start protecting themselves in their bedrooms since sleep is very important for our biochemistry, is there any type of other technologies that can counteract the EMF, or is there some type of organized platform do you have because you mentioned you’ve written extensively within your book, so do you have like a step-by-step system to protect yourself? Elizabeth: Yes. Part 2 of my book is describing, look around your home, look around your living environment, look around your business, what can you do to reduce the number of wireless devices that are there? Like we definitely went back to a wired router. We got rid of our cordless phones. We are choosing to use a cellphone that you can take the battery out of so you can take the battery out of it at night. We also take the battery out of it when we’re travelling in the care. The other problem with using these things inside a moving vehicle, whether it’s a car or a plane is that the radiations bounce around inside the metal, so it makes the radiation much more harmful. So not only should we not use them while we’re driving a car just because it’s distraction but just for our health. We need to stop doing that. Ameer: That brings up something funny. What do you think now of all the WiFi allowed on the planes? Elizabeth: I think it’s absolutely very harmful, very harmful. And in fact, we have several clients, we have found devices that really help people become strong in the face of this radiation and to be able to not only survive but thrive in it, and we found is what helped me. And we have airline attendants and pilots who are saying once all this radiation was bouncing around inside that they would never get to retirement, and when they started using the devices that have helped me, they feel much better. Ameer: What devices are you talking about?
Elizabeth: What we found, they’re called energy dots, and I have been using all these devices when I start getting so sick. I was using them when the smart meters went in, and nothing helped. Obviously I was just getting sicker and sicker and sicker. And we found these, they’re made in England. They were not in America when I found them and I had them send it, and in two days I felt better. During this time, I had not been able to be on a computer anymore, cellphone anymore. If I used a cellphone, even though I had bunch of different types of dots on it, I would get itchy bloody sores on my ankle within 30 seconds, and I had to stop using the computer. I had to stop my research and stop working because I would get itchy blood sores at my mouse arm. I also couldn’t be out in public because I would feel everybody’s cellphones going through me like knives. I knew exactly where everybody was, it was transmitting on their phones. It was just horrendously painful. I actually became a hermit for four months, going from doctor to doctor because at that point I did not understand it because this is not in the medical books, this is brand new. Twelve different doctors had no clue how to help me, and finally after four months of being a hermit, I said “Gee, I’m a medical researcher, I can figure this out.” So I took the laptop outside. By then I had learned about grounding, and I took the laptop outside, put my bare feet in the grass, and wrapped the mouse in aluminum foil, and then found these people online. And when I looked at their research, it made sense over and above everything else that I was using that was not working. And it actually strength ensure biofield. We have a picture of the difference in the biofield. Ameer: So how do these devices work? I’m really curious to know. Elizabeth: It’s a very mild magnet that’s impregnated. They’re different for wearing it, for your cellphone, for your WiFi. They’re impregnated with different energies, and the one for your biofield for you to wear, it actually reminds, it’s almost homeopathic. It reminds your biofield, your energy field around you what it’s like to be healthy and strong, and when you become healthy and strong again, then I can be out in public without feeling people’s cellphones going through me like knives. I can be comfortable in public again. I can go into WiFi building without feeling like I was going to keel over from the dizziness and vertigo. Ameer: What do you think of like say, those like EMF cases for cellphones these days? Elizabeth: Well, it’s not going to do much good. The problem is that if you have something that’s encasing it, the radiation’s got to come out somewhere. Plus, that cellphone has to talk to the cell tower, and so it’s going to amp up in order to reach the cell tower. And they have been warning for a long time, don’t use your cellphone in a one-bar area because the cellphone has to amp so much it makes it have more power, makes it more damaging. And so what we have is a dot that you put on the cellphone that actually alters the energy. The company is called Phiharmonics, and the Greek letter Phi is 1.6 of something something which is compatible with the human energy field, so what it’s doing is making the radiation more compatible and less harmful when you’re using your cellphone. Ameer: Are you familiar with the PEMF technology? Elizabeth: No, I’m not. Ameer: So, pulse electromagnetic frequency, so they emit at a certain pulse. I’m not too sure exactly at what rhythm they emit it, but NASA has been using it, the Russians have been using it, and almost kind of recalibrates your same residency within your DNA as a Schumann residency, so I think it was like 7.5 to like 10 hertz. Elizabeth: Yeah. I’m not familiar with that. I just know that this being the Phi at 1.6 something something, turned me around, absolutely turned me around. Because the other thing that happened
too within 30 days of the smart meters going in, I went from eating every food including wheat and dairy to being able to eat nothing, because I had so many holes in my gut and I was reacting to every food. I quit eating. I was losing four pounds a week because I’d look at the food and go “I don’t want to feel sick in 2 hours.” I’d have hives all over my body. So being able to wear this around my neck, being able to sleep grounded, I haven’t even gotten to that, but sleeping grounded at night, I am still in the same house, still exposed to the same smart meter, still surrounded. In my book, there’s a website called antennasearch.com. You put in your address and it will tell you how many antenna are within four miles of your house, how many cell towers and antenna, and I’m still in the middle of 270 cell towers and 542 antenna within four miles of my house, and still have the same smart meters, the same distance from my house and I’m fine. I don’t have symptoms. All I wear is this biodot and I sleep grounded. Ameer: How do you sleep grounded? Do you have a mat? Elizabeth: Yes. A grounding sheet, and it’s 100% cotton and then it’s woven with silver threads, and you plug it into either the wall outlet, the grounding plug on the wall outlet, I’m not sure exactly what you have there in Canada, or it’s got a cord that you can put it outside if you’re on the bottom floor and put it actually into the ground, is taken to the ground, and then you sleep grounded all night. The other thing that we do at night is by testing our circuit breakers. We figured out what the circuit breakers are for the bedroom. We did have a biological building inspector, common inspector building to determine where the wires are, where the radiations where, and we found out the main wiring for the house was right above our bed board and our bedroom, so we actually turn our circuit breakers off to the back part of our house at night to sleep with no electricity whatsoever, because the body has to repair, and it can’t repair when it’s being exposed to electricity. Ameer: How often would you go grounding outside bare feet? Elizabeth: With this combination of wearing the biodot, of sleeping grounded, of having dots on our computer, cellphone, I do not have to. During the first few months of wearing this biodot, I realized that I was feeling better but I realized I wasn’t well, and so at that point I actually went everyday. I found a place. I live 5 miles from the ocean, the Pacific Ocean down here in the LA area, and I found a place where I could get away from buildings, because the other thing I found during that time is that as they put the smart meters in all the beach houses, I would lay in the beach and I could feel sharp knives going into me just from the smart meters on the beach houses, so I found an area that’s about a quarter mile away from any building on the beach and so I would go and lay on that and force myself. The study show that in 80 minutes, the body can repair and come back to a healthy state, so I would bring a book to force myself to stay there for between an hour and two hours everyday during those first two months as I was trying to get my body to repair, and I really tell people who are sensitive, consider yourself an ICU while you bring your body back to health, because we are being damaged, every cell is being damaged, our DNA is being damaged, and we need time to repair in a space where it can, and it can’t in our smart meter homes. Ameer: Do you think also the EMF may be dehydrating ourselves of water? Elizabeth: Well, these cells, when you think about, it’s got cells in it. The cells are not in homeostasis at all anymore, and what’s happening actually more is that the cells are being dehydrated, the fluids are going into the intercellular spaces, and when I was so sick, when I would go down to the beach and lay there, my legs would be all swollen, my tissues would be all swollen, and I could lay there and literally watch my skin go back to normal size because my fluid balance would go back to normal.
Ameer: You mentioned earlier about the dangers of a calcium. Is there any type of a template of a diet or supplements you would recommend for people? Elizabeth: No, what I’m talking about is the cellular imbalance inside, so it’s more protecting yourself from the radiation, wearing something like this biodot, sleeping grounded so that your body can do the repair it needs to do. That’s the major thing that needs to happen. And when I talk about the cellular and the calcium imbalance, because the calcium is leaking out of the cells, the evidence about autism is so strong. I had started seeing the evidence for autism caused by sunscreen chemicals when I was doing my sunscreen book. That book is called Sunscreens – Biohazard: Treat as Hazardous Waste, and the website for that is sunscreensbiohazard.com. And I saw the evidence there. The tragedy that we’re seeing is that the major sunscreen chemical that is now is in 97% of American’s blood supply even in people who say they’ve never used sunscreen, because it’s now in our waters, it’s in our lakes, our rivers. It’s in our water supply because it doesn’t come out and [inaudible-00:29:39] plants, and that one chemical, if a fish is exposed to it, actually becomes what they call intersex. It has testicle and egg materials combined. And just recently, just a few weeks ago, I saw this study. Because I saw the connection to the sunscreen chemicals and then when I started to work on the electromagnetic radiation, I saw the connection. The biochemical evidence that these autistic kids are also showing the evidence of radiation damage. They have the leaky gut that I developed in 30 days from exposure to the smart meters. And when they do autopsies on autistic kids, their brains show total calcium imbalance throughout their brain cells. So this is absolutely happening, but what they see now when looking at the kids, because the sunscreens are potent, potent anti-testosterones, boys are impacted during fetal development when they’re exposed to them, so what I’m calling this is the perfect storm. When we have chemicals in our body and then we open up our cells and our protective barriers from the radiations, from cellphones, etc., then those chemicals have greater access inside the cell to create havoc, and so they are disrupting fetal development of our children while they’re in development. And these sunscreens, being potent anti-testosterones, more boys are impacted during development when they’re exposed to this, and autism is now 5 to 1 boys. Ameer: What’s your take on a Faraday cage? Say if I want to take some like 100% silver lining and make one in my bedroom. Elizabeth: Okay, I just want to finish on this autism thing. Just two weeks ago, I saw that they are noticing, like there’s a 238% of autistic boys having malformed genitals which really goes along with the sunscreen impact, and that these kids are really being impacted by the radiation and chemicals during development. But to get back to your question about the Faraday, years ago, Faraday cages like we know people who are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation 10, 15 years ago and there really was no answer, and they had to sleep in Faraday cages in order to just sleep. Today, all I wear is this biodot. It’s very inexpensive, very easy because I actually just put it next to my pillow at night, sleep on a grounding sheet, and I am symptom-free. So yes indeed, Faraday cages have been good, but I think we’ve gone past that and this technology that we now have and can use is so much simpler and a lot less expensive than the Faraday cage because those are like over $1000 or something. Ameer: Elizabeth, if you had to summarize, what would be your number one optimal health tip? Elizabeth: Look at every single source of radiation and realize you don’t need it. Like, we got rid of our television set when I was opening up and bleeding when it was turned on, and we thought “Why expose ourselves to this at all?” And I think years ago when televisions were our number one electrical source, yes indeed, that little bit we can tolerate it, but now that we are exposed so extremely, we can’t. We cannot expose ourselves. We need to reduce every source of exposure that we can.
Ameer: Where can people find more information about your books and everything that you do? Elizabeth: Our website is called EMFfreedom.com. Go on there, there’s a lot of information on there. Go to the button that says “EMF products.” The products that I’ve been talking about are there, that you can wear, that you can put on your cellphones, and really tell everybody you know. I have been doing lectures for decades now and I usually tell people “please tell 10 people…” I increased that 20 people, but as I see people find this so sick today, I’m asking people to tell everyone you know because we need to spread this. We need to reduce the use of cellphones. You can. We stopped using our cellphones so much and it’s amazing. When we got rid of our microwave oven 14 years ago and when we got rid of our TV, and then we stopped using our cellphone, we don’t need these things. We’ve all come to think that they’re essential and they’re really not. We can reduce it and we have to for ourselves and for our future generations because our kids are absolutely being impacted. They’re identifying our kids, no longer can play with box, can no longer learn lines in the school plays because they’re so exposed to the cellphones. They’re not developing normally anymore. That was just being they’re being exposed to tablets to learn with instead of blocks, things like that, where they can learn manual dexterity. Ameer: Well, Elizabeth, I want to thank you so much for coming on the Optimal Health Show and educating all the Health Warriors out there about the dangers of EMF. I can already see a round 2 coming up, but I want to wish you an amazing day, and talk to you soon. Elizabeth: Okay. Thank you so much. I so appreciate this opportunity. Ameer: Buh-bye.
