Behind the Headlines: Examining the Potential Health Risks of 5G

There has been no shortage of news articles and media coverage dedicated to the development of 5G technology and the adverse effects it may have on public health. The growing controversy over the pros and cons of 5G can have many of us wondering what’s true, what’s false, and what’s next.

In an effort to shed some light on the subject, we’re going to take a closer look at 5G - what it is, why it's so important in our lives, and how it could be a potential health risk.

What is 5G Technology?

The Internet has become indispensable for commerce, recreation, communication, you name it, and that has only increased demand for faster speeds, faster downloads, and fewer disruptions for ensuring that our wireless devices can send and receive data without the hassles of lag time from weak signals.

That's where 5G technology comes in, the fifth generation of cellular networks provides speed and reliability 100 times faster and stronger than all other generations of networks to come before it.

Why is it faster? The technology works on higher frequencies, much higher than previous networks, which enables the signals to receive and download data at the fastest speeds yet. These higher frequencies travel over shorter distances in order to provide these speeds and features, which means more towers in closer proximity to one another.

What this also means is more electromagnetic radiation coming from those towers that are closer together - and to our bodies. This is unlike the previous generations of networks where the signals traveled over longer distances and required fewer cell towers, which were built taller than the current iterations supporting 5G technology.

Potential Risks to Public Health

The reduced distances that 5G signal frequencies need to cross in order to support the fastest speeds and fewest interruptions has many wondering if these higher frequencies pose a risk to our health. There is certainly an increase in the amount of EMF’s, particularly the nonionizing (or low-level) form of EMF radiation that are emitted from the multitude of wireless devices that society has become so dependent upon each and every day - phones, tablets, laptops, Wi-Fi routers, power lines, even our “smart” appliances and components found in today’s automobiles.

By contrast, the ionizing form of EMF radiation is considered far more dangerous as those primary sources come from X-ray machines and the ultraviolet rays of the sun.

But it’s the non ionizing version of EMF’s that has doctors, scientists, and researchers in the fields of technology and science continuing to explore just how safe these frequencies really are because if there’s one thing they can all agree on, it’s that no one can quite agree on a definitive answer to that particular question.

While non ionizing radiation is largely considered less impactful and potentially damaging to human health over short periods of exposure, it’s the long-term effects that are still giving experts pause and generating more questions than answers. Studies have shown that some of the symptoms associated with electrohypersensitivity to EMF radiation exposure ranges from migraine headaches and nausea to skin irritation, fatigue, and mood swings.

These symptoms and the increase in individuals demonstrating them have made researchers fearful that proper examinations and analyses of the potential adverse effects of 5G on public health have not been conducted in a thorough manner.

Short-term exposure to EMF in low doses may not pose much of a threat, but it’s the increase in the devices around us, the proliferation of the sources of EMF, and the relentless exposure over the long-term in which we are almost constantly in the vicinity of at least three sources of non ionizing EMF radiation at all times. That has left many asking how much is too much and how long is too long before we come to the realization that even non ionizing, low level EMF radiation from 5G technology is having an adverse impact on our health and wellness.

Since there is more research needed and more evidence has started to point to a possible link between long-term exposure to EMF radiation and cancer, reproductive damage, neurological dysfunction, oxidative stress on cells, and abnormal genetic structure, the speed with which 5G technology is being adopted by the marketplace is alarming, to say the least.

What Can You Do to Protect Yourself?

While researchers and experts debate what’s safe and what isn’t, you can take precautionary measures to keep you and your family protected from the EMF radiation that is being transmitted due to 5G technology.

EMF protection products that are designed to harmonize the negative energies from EMFs while strengthening and supporting the cells of the body against oxidative stress brought on by non ionizing radiation are your best solution to minimize the impacts of EMF radiation.

Available in wearable and sticker form, you can find a wide selection of effective EMF protection products from EMF Harmony, the innovators in the field. Using our proprietary bioresonance energy technology, these products are a consistent and reliable source of anti-EMF frequencies that don’t block the EMF’s but harmonize and neutralize their impacts instead.
