Despite the increasing reports of people who report feeling symptoms of “electro-sensitivity” from cell phones, wifi routers, Bluetooth devices and other sources of microwave radiation, mainstream medicine continues to bury its head in the sand and ignore the issue.
On the other hand, most of the top functional medicine practitioners in the world — include Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, Dr. Zach Bush, Dr. Dan Pompa, Dr. Ben Lynch and Dr. Tom O’Bryan each claim that “EMF removal is essential for proper healing”.
Who’s right?
Above: Watch the October 30, 2018 live Q&A with Nick Pineault: “The Truth About EMF Radiation”
Let’s look at 7 important facts most health practitioners do not know about EMFs:
Fact #1: Our EMF Safety Standards Are Based On Heating Effects, NOT Biological Effects
The 1996 EMF safety standards that are supposed to protect each and every of your patients/clients are based on the false premise that the only way that EMFs can hurt our biology is by causing overheating.
This myth is completely unscientific, considering the fact that publicly-available research published by the NASA in 1970,[1] the US Naval Medical Research Institute (NMRI) in 1971,[2] the US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) in 1976[3] and countless others show that EMFs can and do cause damage through non-thermal mechanisms.
In other words, our current safety standards are based on a false premise, and therefore do not protect anyone against the harm caused by microwave radiation.
Fact #2: Your Patients Are Exposed to EMF Levels 1,000000000000000000 (Quintillion) Times Higher Than In the 1920s
This graphic originally created by EMF engineer and activist Alasdair Philips from the advocacy group Powerwatch UK shows how much our “Electrosmog” exposure has increased in a few decades, and especially in the last 2 decades.[4]
The amount of new cell phone towers and wifi hotspots that have been installed just in the last 15 years is also nothing short of staggering.
These new sources of microwave radiation are filling our planet with more and more electro-pollution, again, based on the false premise that they are completely safe.
Fact #3: A Few Days Ago, The NTP Study Has Shown That EMFs Are A Class 1 “Definite” Carcinogen — Next To Tobacco & Asbestos
Just a few days ago, the $25 US NTP study has published their conclusions after running one of the most important and costly studies around cell phones and cancer ever conceived.
Their initial goal: proving without the shadow of a doubt that cell phones are safe.
What they found: the opposite; rats and mice exposed to cellphone radiation have shown “Clear Evidence” of an increase in multiple tumor types.[5]
Ron Melnick, former staff scientist at the NTP who’s now retired, explained that:
“The NTP has now shown what no one believed was possible before the project started. The assumption has always been that RF radiation could not cause cancer. Now we know that was wrong.”
If the NTP study was to be considered as part of a future re-classification of EMFs by the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), EMFs would likely become a Class 1 “Definite” carcinogen next to tobacco and asbestos. It might take years before this decision is taken though, considering the huge industry pressure and controversy around the topic.
Fact #4: Your Patients Are Being Exposed to EMF Levels Worse Than Rats in the NTP Study
A lot of critics of the NTP claim that the radiation levels rats were exposed with (1.5, 3 and 6 W/kg) are way higher than what most cell phone users are being exposed to — and try to discredit the studies’ findings for this very reason.
Technically speaking, they are right. In the US, cell phones cannot be legally sold unless they have an “SAR” (specific absorption rate) of 1.6 W/kg or less.
The problem? This SAR is measured at a distance of 5 to 15 millimeters from the dummy head used in test facilities.
The bigger problem? When tested ON the body (no separation), French advocacy group Alert Phonegate[6] revealed that 90% of all cell phones miserably fail the safety testing, and that certain phones go over 20 W/kg, which is over 9 times the FCC safety limits.[7]
Fact #5: 35% of Your Patients Suffer From EMF-Related Symptoms, But All Are Affected
According to the most conservative estimates of independent EMF researchers, at least 35% of the population suffers from “mild to moderate” symptoms of electro sensitivity, including fatigue, sleep disturbance, headaches, difficulty concentrating, depression, memory loss, hearing disruptions, skin problems and cardiovascular issues.[8]
This corroborates the clinical observations of the top functional medicine practitioners like Dr. Dan Pompa, who recently shared with me that “50% of all his clients are very sensitive to EMFs”.[9]
It’s important that on a cellular, all of us are affected by EMFs — even if we might not feel any symptoms from this exposure.
The work of Dr. Martin Pall[10] from the Washington State University has shown that EMFs trigger calcium release inside the cells, leading to a slew of downstream biological effects including opening of the blood-brain barrier, oxidative stress, single and double DNA strand breaks, and many more.
Fact #6: EMF Science is Polluted By A Strong Industry Bias
Pretty unsurprisingly, the trillions-of-dollars-strong Telecom industry is using the exact same playbook that has been used in the past by Big Tobacco — polluting the current available science with “no effect” studies in order to manufacture doubt.
In a 2007 review, researchers revealed that studies funded by the Telecoms might be up to 10 times more likely to find no biological effect, which represents a bias 2.5 times worse than Big Pharma…[11]
The industry seems to be unable to control the endless flow of studies which have come out in the last 2 decades alone though — and which do show biological effects.
The nonprofit group “Oceania Radiofrequency Scientific Advisory Association” (ORSAA) looked at 2399 peer-reviewed papers published since the year 2000. Of those, 61% of those showed biological effects, while 26% did not.[12]
ORSAA has also confirmed that study databases on radiofrequency EMFs “are seeded with industry sponsored ‘no effect’ studies raising the question of reliability and trustworthiness of a large section of papers.”
Fact #7: Things Are Going To Get Worse [Before They Get Better], And You Need To Learn More About EMFs Now, Not Later.
The advent of the 5G networks will demand the installation of millions of additional “small cell” antennas in the US alone — installed every 3 to 12 homes in residential areas, and on every traffic light pole in downtown areas.
This technology is being rolled out, once again, based on the false premise that non-heating biological effects do not exist, a myth that has been dispelled for more than half a century, if not more.
As a practitioner it has become critical for you to learn how to add EMFs to your practice, which includes:
- Add EMFs to your patient intakes
- Identify the worst sources of EMF exposure
- Assess EMF sensitivity and identify suspected EMF-related symptoms
- Understand the strong synergies between EMFs and heavy metals, mold, chemicals and infections such as Lyme
- Reduce or remove sources of EMFs, consider referring the patient to a Building Biologist or Geovital consultant for an EMF home survey
- Support patient’s recovery with the right “EMF-buffering” supplements, foods and lifestyle interventions
Investigative Health Journalist and GreenMedInfo collaborator Nick Pineault has teamed up with some of the best minds in healing including Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, building biologists, independent scientists and many other collaborators to create “Electrosmog Rx”, the world’s 1st EMF course for health practitioners.

Josh: Though I appreciate efforts toward educating the “public” regarding wireless broadcast, it hardly matters to those already affected. I was EM burned by living under three standard AM/FM broadcast towers nearly 30 years ago. Since then I’ve had Lyme disease twice, have constant reinfections with fungal disease, and experience fatigue, ear ringing, occasional seizures, and migraine headaches many times a month. I’ve done all the Natural and pharmaceutical remedies, and most are ineffective in real terms.
I have an electronics background in analog circuit design. I am now disabled, unemployed, unemployable, and a refugee from civilization. I’m damn tired of the medical profession treating “patients” as if the patients are ill, rather than addressing the fact that our entire corporate paradigm is plainly sick and suicidal. Who can afford a specialist doctor when the insurance industry runs the health care system? It’s all become a bad joke…
Meantime all doctor offices and hospitals are pulsing with microwave frequencies. Hardly a place to go for advice or to heal.
You may want to check out a different type of frequency Paul ( for healing)…

Japan has mandated smart meters for everyone by 2020. I will be forced to live in a hut in a forest with no utilities, and come into town in a burka with “It’s an allergy” printed front and back. This is the kind of crisis many of us face. Like you, we try everything, and many of them do help a bit, but the only thing that really works for us is avoidance. Perhaps it was due to overexposure that most others haven’t experienced yet, such as Imelda O’Conner who became severely EHS after being deliberately harassed on at least one occasion with high-power radio-wave equipment for her human rights advocacy.
It is good that Josh and Nick are reaching out to skeptical people who have turned “tin foil” into a term of slander. The only hope we have is much wider recognition of a real problem affecting everyone to one degree or another.

Exactly. Last summer I went to an otolaryngologist to be sure my new symptoms (after receiving a titanium implant) were not something serious that could be addressed by more traditional means. In the waiting room there was a sign not use cell phones, but when I looked closely, it said to put them on “manner mode” so the ring tone wouldn’t disturb anyone. Good testing and good advice from the painfully limited perspective the doctor offered. Prescription made me feel worse. Came back on a crowded day, and had to tell the nurses I needed to wait outside because I felt so terrible in the waiting room Doctor said I feel dizzy in crowds because my eyes dart around. He wasn’t the kind of person you could bring your real story up with.
A typical experience for me. I want to translate the guide for practitioners into Japanese and see if I can use it to cultivate one or two I can trust.
Try grounding, making direct contact with the earth. It resonates the exact same frequency as our cells, the Schumann Resonance, 7.83 Hz. It is how we can rebuild our electrons that are burnt out from the mega and giga hertz. Also, natural bodies of water provide the same electrons as well as hugging a tree, sitting on a horse, holding onto a cat, taking a bath in natural mineral well water. There are endless amounts of free electrons to rebuild the ones you lose while in the higher frequencies. and all heal us or rather enable our own healing abilities to begin. The book, Earthing- The Greatest Health Discovery Ever is a must read! There is also restructured water from a machine made in Japan, used by the Dr.s there and this water is alive and has electrons/antioxidants. Take ginseng, Vitamin C, Royal Jelly, CoQ10, It is not hopeless. There are ways of getting well. I am proof. It’s a long story but I have recovered from a horrible exposure from 2012 to 2014 that gave me the wasting syndrome, fibromyalgia, CFS, internal bleeding and tumors growing. I went from 46 years old to 90 and on the verge of death in 3 years. That was in 2015. I am almost back to feeling fine and normal.
That’s amazing would it be possible to speak / commmunicate with you ?
What can Be dine? I am having health issues: insomnia, depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, strange sound in my ears. I’ve had to quit my job and now struggling financially. I cannot function as I once did. I’m desperate for an answer.
