- EMFs are categorized into non-ionizing (low-frequency, generally considered safe) and ionizing (high-frequency, potentially harmful).
- Exposure to EMFs is prevalent in modern life, mainly from devices like cell phones and Wi-Fi routers, with debates continuing about long-term health effects.
- Potential health concerns linked to high EMF exposure include cancer, electromagnetic hypersensitivity, reproductive issues, neurological effects, and cardiovascular problems, though evidence remains inconclusive.
- Strategies to minimize EMF exposure include using wired headsets, EMF shielding devices, limiting device usage (especially before sleep), and spending time in nature.
- Understanding EMFs allows for informed decisions to balance technology use with health and well-being.
