I remember the days when young men
did NOT sit in Starbucks answering emails on their WiFi enabled laptops or
talking on phones that they pull out of their pockets! The BioInitiative report
published in 2012 is an ground breaking report that brings together over 1800
separate research
projects on the effects of EMF. In
one study the authors wantedto find out what effect WiFi connected laptops
could have on healthy sperm.
Twenty-nine healthy guys gave
samples which were obtained under 2 different conditions. The
first group was exposed to a Wi-Fi
connected laptop for 4 hours. The second group was not
exposed to the laptop or Wi-Fi
They studied 3 parameters. The first
one, viability, was the same for both groups. This could be considered the good
news. The bad news is really pretty bad. Sperm do not fare well when EMF
radiation is bombarding them. The second parameter was sperm motility: the
ability for the sperm to move properly towards an egg This was impaired by the
Wi-Fi and this means the sperm just don't make it all the way upstream to
fertilize the egg. No fertilization = no baby! If you are attempting to start a
family, this is a serious issue.
The 3rd factor they measured is
called DNA fragmentation. In another area of the report research
found that that EMF can penetrate
through tissues and directly damage DNA. DNA fragmentation is DNA that HAS
already been damaged. It can make egg fertilization less likely
as well as cause genetic
abnormalities or miscarriages.** It's exciting to have a family, but if
your child suffers from genetic
abnormalities, or your partner has a miscarriage because of DNA
damage that might have been avoided,
this is something incredibly important to know!
The Bottom Line: Guys – if you are
in the “make a family” mode, go take a vacation, away from
wireless, and then start your
family. If you can’t do that, at least stay away from your wireless
applications for a day or two (a nice
weekend) before you offer her your sperm. You will never
know what issues were avoided
because you provided healthy sperm, and that's one of those
things that it is fine not to know!
Healthy sperm - healthy babies - we're for it!! It may be difficult, nay,
impossible to fully stay away from all these various sources of electromagnetic
radiation. That’s why many health professionals are now recommending the use
of protective devices to help
protect you from damage. I found a company that has a number of
different products – a pad to put
under your laptop, a blanket you can use on your lap which also
good for pregnant women, devices
that will help to neutralize EMF energy in a room or even an
entire house, they even a pendant that
can be worn to help protect ones energy field from harm
and is especially a wise choice
because it protects you wherever you may go. Home and device
