Electrosmog does exist, but we shouldn't drive ourselves crazy. Fear is the worst advisor there is.
Fear of a supposed health hazard is often more dangerous than the hazard itself.
Electrosmog is a fundamental topic, but one should not see things worse than they are. However, one should not trivialise or relativise them either. It is important to recognise the actual, possible and concrete effects and act consciously accordingly.
Quo vadis, radiation?!
The radiation generated by humans is initially invisible to us. That is to say: humans do not have a sensory organ that is directly designed to perceive artificially generated electromagnetic radiation.
Unsere Augen nehmen Sonnenstrahlung und vieles andere wahr, unsere Ohren hören in einem bestimmten Frequenzbereich, wir akustische Signale wahr. Aber unsere Sinne sind nicht dafür ausgelegt, vom Menschen geschaffene Wellenmuster zu erblicken. Man muss diese Muster mittels weiterer technischer Geräte sicht- oder hörbar machen.
Those who are older know this
Like with television in the past: the signal was transmitted through the air, but it required an antenna on the roof and a television set to make these wave patterns visible.
Keiner von uns sieht die Strahlung, die ein 5G Turm abgibt, eine Sendeanlage auf einem Hausdach, das Handy, das Navigationssystem oder sogar unsere Haushaltsgeräte. Wir sehen sie nicht und deshalb existiert sie für manche Menschen auch nicht. Wieder andere wissen zwar, dass durchaus viel Strahlung existiert, aber sie ziehen in Zweifel, dass sie Auswirkungen auf uns hat. Töricht.
An example from medicine
Because I don't see X-ray radiation either, I don't feel it, I don't hear it. But you can still see the result of this radiation on an X-ray image, and we have to wear a lead shield on the body parts that are not to be X-rayed.
Of course: X-ray radiation is strong, and I only expose myself to it briefly, but: the radiation emitted by our everyday helpers is constantly present. And it is getting stronger and stronger due to ever higher power and more and more devices around you.
We are limited.
Our body is inherently only set to perceive a certain range.
Research says we perceive so many bits (units of information) per second:
- Eyes: 10,000,000
- Skin: 1,000,000
- Ears: 100,000
- Smell: 100,000
- Taste: 1,000
But only 40 bits per second are actively perceived in consciousness! Unbelievably little of what happens is even conscious to us. And even what we all unconsciously absorb is only a small part of what there is to grasp!
Consider how much better dogs smell, that cats can see at night and bats practically orient themselves with sonar. Or also all birds hook into the Earth's magnetic field and orient themselves better than we can ever comprehend. For that, humans have other, unique abilities.
Es gilt, diese Unterschiede anzuerkennen und wertzuschätzen und auch einzusehen, dass wir eben nicht alles mitbekommen, was Auswirkungen auf uns hat. Umso wichtiger ist es also, ein Bewusstsein dafür zu entwickeln, nicht alles zu wissen oder wahrzunehmen und das, was einem fehlt, mit sinnvollen Hilfsmitteln auszugleichen.
Constant exposure wears down the mind.
Since our body organises and controls itself with electrical and magnetic fields, currents, and signals, we should enable it to perform these essential tasks for our lives as undisturbed and naturally as possible.
However, the radiation from technology, which is not directly perceptible, is not always biologically optimal. Quite the opposite: most electromagnetic fields generated by our technology are a burden on the body.
Now, ask yourself two questions:
- How many technological devices are around me all day? Because all these devices generate electromagnetic fields.
- How much exposure can a person realistically tolerate?
A thought experiment
Imagine, every technological device would place a weight of 100 grams on your shoulders.
So, consider how many devices are around you. You are exposed to the radiation from other people's mobile phones as well as your own. If every mobile phone were to burden you with weight: how much extra weight are you carrying around?
Can you imagine that you would then become tired and sluggish? And that one body might give in faster than another? That someone complains of headaches and limb pain, but you do not yet?
People have different levels of resilience, and the question is not whether we are surrounded by too much biologically negative radiation, but what you can realistically and sensibly do to ensure that your body (and your animals, plants, etc.) remains unburdened.
Technology > Nature
Now imagine the following:
What if the technological fields interfere with the natural fields of your body, with which it regulates itself and, for example, manages processes like your metabolism (weight loss)?! The technological fields are much stronger than the electromagnetic fields your body needs and uses. Sleep Hunger for the right signals
You can think of it a bit like eating: when your body functions normally, it gives you a signal when it is hungry. You notice real hunger because it is felt physically directly under the breastbone and not further down in the stomach.
Das kannst du dir ein wenig wie mit dem Essen vorstellen: wenn dein Körper normal funktioniert, gibt er dir ein Signal, wann er Hunger hat. Echten Hunger merkst du daran, dass er körperlich direkt zentral unter dem Brustkorb zu spüren ist und nicht etwa weiter unten im Bauch. Und dass du bei echtem Hunger praktisch alles essen würdest, statt wählerisch zu sein. Das ist Hunger.
Wenn die Signale aber nicht richtig ankommen, isst du alles mögliche, bist wählerisch und isst auch mehr, als du brauchst oder dein Körper eigentlich will. Die Signale deines Körpers werden übertönt von Geschmacksverstärkern, von künstlichen Farben, von Fett und Zucker, die so in den Körper eingreifen, dass er mehr will.
And then you no longer listen to your body, but to the signal that overlays the natural function. That this is not healthy in the long run is evident in the case of overeating.
Und dann hörst du nicht mehr auf deinen Körper, sondern auf das Signal, was die natürliche Funktion überlagert. Dass das auf Dauer nicht gesund ist, sieht man beim Essen am Übergewicht. Und bei anderen Körperfunktionen kann es sein, dass wir verwirrt sind, unsere Kraft nicht optimal nutzen können, nicht gut schlafen und generell leicht gereizt sind, neben vielen anderen Beispielen.
There are many ways to take action for personal protection and well-being. Many are presented here on the blog at various points.
The most important things are:
First of all, do not panic, because the fear of danger is often more harmful than the actual danger itself.
- Ask yourself if and what radiation exposures are present at home or nearby. Radio masts, antennas, high-voltage lines, railway tracks, Wi-Fi, mobile phones, etc.
- How many devices are around you. In a block of flats, there are immensely more devices in the immediate vicinity.
- Ask yourself if and what complaints you currently have and how severe they are and whether they become stronger during the day (e.g., in the office, at work) or weaker (e.g., alone outside in nature).
- Ask yourself if you are willing to at least try sensible harmonisation products to see what might change.
- Pay attention to your diet.
- Try the products from
- Pen-Yang® and gather your own experiences with them. It's about smart meters, smart grids, and smart homes. The smart meter is essentially an electricity meter that constantly sends and receives data. It is versatile and can record current consumption, take tariff changes into account, and possibly also enable temperature control via an app. However, since it constantly transmits, it also contributes to the constant exposure to electromagnetic radiation. According to emsafetynetwork.org, the radiation from a smart meter can contribute to the development of the following complaints: From the EMF Safety Network Survey 2011, Symptoms after Exposure to Smart Meter Radiation by Dr. Ron Powell https://emfsafetynetwork.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Symptoms-after-Exposure-to-Smart-Meter-Radiation.pdf Our solution: a ...
