Exploring the Effects of EMF Exposure Through an EEG Experiment
The EEG experiment aimed to assess the effects of electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure when holding a phone to the head. A baseline EEG was recorded without any phone use to establish stable conditions, allowing for consistent comparison. The participants did not interact with their phones during the baseline period, ensuring they were exposed to everyday EMF levels. After recording the baseline, participants held a live phone up to their heads, and the EEG was recorded again after a brief pause to avoid contamination of the data. The experiment included variations such as using a VR headset to test different conditions. The overarching goal was not to create a peer-reviewed study but rather to demonstrate consistent results previously observed in controlled environments. Insights garnered include intriguing reactions from participants, particularly a noted 'cooling effect' experienced during the phone exposure, which raised further questions and interest among viewers of the experiment. This reflects the ongoing curiosity surrounding the physiological responses to EMF exposure and its real-world implications.
