Personal EMF Shielding
Why Use Personal EMF Shielding?
According to Nielson, the average person consumes 10 hours of screentime a day. Many of these hours are on close proximity devices, such as smart phones, laptops and tablets.
All-in-all that’s an awful lot of time being inundated by radio frequency fields and other EMFs. By making small changes (such as using devices in airplane mode) and by utilizing some of the following products in moderation, people can reduce their and their family’s exposure levels.
Below are some of our favorite personal EMF shielding devices.
Low EMF Airtube Headphones
We mentioned these in the Office EMF Protection chapter, as well. The beauty of these headphones is that they make you less susceptible to the EMF radiation that are found in standard bluetooth wireless headphones and from the magnetic fields produced from the headphone’s speaker in your ear or directly adjacent to your ear.
Eliminating the RF fields or increasing the distance from the magnetic fields is a good thing.
There are several brands of airtube headphones to choose from, but one of the most popular is the DefenderShield version.
EMF Blocking Cell Phone Cases
We always recommend that our clients put their cell phones into airplane mode whenever possible, but we know there are times when people have to be available to be contacted and need to have their phone with them and able to transmit.
For those scenarios, getting one of these RF blocking phone cases can help shield those RF fields and lower your overall exposure
DefenderShield and Safesleeve are two of the more well known manufacturers of these cases and these are available for most iPhone and Android phone models.
Laptop EMF Shielding Cases
Most people sit in chairs or on the couch with their laptops resting on their laps. This leads to a lot of close proximity EMF exposure.
The safest solution, by far, is to use a computer at desk or table with a wired mouse and keyboard and a wired internet connection.
If you’re going to occasionally use a laptop on your lap, an EMF laptop shield will reduce your exposure to AC magnetic fields, AC electric fields and RF fields.
DefenderShield and Safesleeve are two of the more well known manufacturers of these cases.
Tablet EMF Shielding Cases
Like with laptops, most people use their tablet on their lap and this leads to RF radiation exposure.
Because of this, we always prefer that people use their tablet in airplane mode or rig a wired, ethernet connection to their tablets.
In the times when you’re unable to do this, a tablet shielding case can help reduce your exposure.
DefenderShield and Safesleeve are two of the more well known manufacturers of types of tablet cases.
Blue Light Blocking Glasses
The artificial blue light produced by phones, laptops and tablets is unhealthy in several ways.
Blue light is thought to be detrimental to sleep hygiene, overall brain functioning, and damaging to one’s eyesight and skin.
Blue light blocking glasses help temper your exposure and ensure a better night’s sleep.
There are several models available on the market, but both TrueDark and DefenderShield are solid options to choose from.
EMF Blocking & Shielding Blankets
EMF Protection Blankets are another line of defense in lowering your RF exposure.
We always prefer that people use their laptops or tablets in airplane mode or connected with a wired, ethernet connection.
We realize this isn’t always possible, however, so an RF protection blanket will lower you or your loved one’s RF exposure.
DefenderShield and Safesleeve are two of the more well known manufacturers of these types of blankets.
EMF Shielding Clothing
There’s a wide array of EMF shielding clothing available today.
We can’t speak to their efficacy of everything that’s available on the market, but DefenderShield has some options that will reduce your RF exposure on the parts of your body that are covered with the material.
