In the 20th century, we were introduced to the Internet, a global network that connects computer systems across the world. It includes data lines that connect to major Internet hubs to distribute data to other locations, such as web servers and ISPs. In the 21st century, consumers were introduced to Wi-Fi, a wireless networking technology that allows devices such as computers, mobile devices, and other equipment to interface with the Internet.   What is Wi-Fi? Wi-Fi is the name of a wireless networking technology that uses radio waves to provide wireless high-speed Internet and network connections.    How does Wi-Fi work?  Wi-Fi uses radio frequencies to send signals between...

Using accredited lab tests that mimic human tissue, reporters from The Chicago Tribune tested smartphone radiofrequency radiation emitted by 11 models of popular cell phones. They found most of the phones exceeded the legal limit set by the FCC of 1.6 watts per kilogram averaged over 1 gram of tissue. Radiofrequency radiation exposure from the iPhone 7 — one of the most popular smartphones ever sold — measured over the legal safety limit and more than double what Apple reported to federal regulators from its own testing. The FCC is currently investigating the reported findings. A recent investigation has reignited...

There has been a growing concern of the neurological effects on the human brain due to exposure to electromagnetic fields. Studies were conducted by different groups of scientists on the neurological effects of prolonged exposure to electromagnetic fields on the central nervous system caused by cell phone usage. In this blog, we will summarize the findings of various studies and offer some recommendations on the solutions we offer to shield our brains and other body parts from radiation.   Brief Introduction to Neurology and Physical Behaviour Our central nervous system plays an integral part in our day-to-day function. When our...

Last week the internet was abuzz with news that Bluetooth and wireless headphones could boost your risk for cancer. Coverage took off when a story posted to Medium referencing an appeal from 2015 in which 247 scientists from 42 countries expressed their concern about the health effects associated with exposure to the electromagnetic fields (EMFs) emitted from wireless devices. The scientists warned that potential health risks of chronic EMF exposure include cancer, genetic damages, neurological disorders, learning and memory deficits, and reproductive issues, among others. The appeal called on the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations to adopt stricter guidelines for EMF...

How to Minimize EMF Radiation from my Wi-Fi Devices Presently, our technology is primarily based on the Wi-Fi network, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic where everyone has to rely on their computers and home offices to work, and their mobile phones to communicate with friends, colleagues, and loved ones. Therefore, to eliminate Wi-Fi completely from our house is not practical and almost impossible. We must learn to adapt and live smartly with Wi-Fi around us. In this blog, we will recommend several solutions in which people can reduce EMF radiation emitted from their Wi-Fi network and thereby reduce the risks...
