Aug 2, 2020

Nicole Bijlsma, a trailblazer in building biology and former naturopath, discusses the critical link between our health and the environments we inhabit. She tackles the dangers of EMFs, especially with the rising prevalence of 5G technology, and shares insights on mold and chemical sensitivities. Nicole emphasizes the failures of mainstream medicine in addressing these environmental factors and insists that understanding our home's impact is vital for chronic disease management. Her passion for educating others shines through as she advocates for healthier living spaces.

Episode notes

INSIGHT

Flawed Tech Exposure Standards

Exposure standards for technology are not health-based but industry-compromise standards.
Consumers wrongly assume tech sold is safety-tested, which is often false.

INSIGHT

Mold Links to EMF Sensitivity

Mold exposure weakens immune system and increases sensitivity to chemicals and EMFs.
Building biologists assess symptoms and environment together to identify health hazards.

INSIGHT

Medical Training Gaps on Exposure

Doctors lack training to take environmental exposure histories, crucial for diagnosing chronic illness.
Medical system is geared only for acute diseases, failing chronic and environmental sensitivity patients.

Mason welcomes Nicole Bijlsma onto the podcast today. Nicole is building biologist who single handedly established the building biology industry in Australia. After 15 years of clinical practice as a Naturopath and Acupuncturist, Nicole switched things up, changing her career pathway after noticing a strong correlation between the ill health of many of her patients and the health hazards they were exposed to in their homes. Nicole is a ball of passion, knowledge and insight, delivering the cold hard facts about environmental hazards such as 5G, EMFs, mould and more! Truly a woman on a mission, Nicole has great zeal for raising awareness and educating individuals on how they can create health in their body, homes and general environments.

Mason and Nicole discuss:

-Building biology, what it is and what a building biologist does.

-The concept that the home or building we spend our time in, being like a third layer or extension of our skin.

-New home technology and exposure standards; human safety vs profit.

-The health impacts of EMF exposure.

-The relationship between immune deficiency and mould, EMF, chemical sensitivity.

-The importance of taking a full case history when working to identify the root of chronic disease, and how the mainstream medical system fails us in this regard - "taking a thorough environmental exposure history is the most important thing a doctor can do, and none of them were trained to do it"

-5G and why the configuration of the network is problematic for health.

-The origin of 5G technology, why it was developed and what it was used for.

-The data on heavy metal load and electromagnetic sensitivity in humans.

-Identifying health risks in the home.

-The myths around EMF shielding equipment and technology.

-The importance of a healthy lifestyle and home environment in cultivating resilience against EMF exposure.
