Understanding EMF Radiation

Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are invisible energy waves emitted by electronic devices such as smartphones, laptops, and Wi-Fi routers. There are two main types of EMFs: non-ionizing radiation, which is low-level and found in everyday devices, and ionizing radiation, which is high-level and associated with harmful effects like DNA damage. While non-ionizing radiation is generally seen as less dangerous, emerging studies suggest it can pose significant health risks, especially with daily high exposure from multiple devices. The rapid increase in wireless technology has significantly raised EMF exposure compared to previous decades, often resulting in individuals carrying multiple devices that contribute to overall exposure.
