Recent Survey Focusing on Negative Health Effects of Technology Finds Many Respondents are Sensitive to EMF Radiation

Health and wellness e-commerce company, DefenderShield, shares survey findings about technology consumption, electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation health concerns and Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS).

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., July 14, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- DefenderShield, the world leader in electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation protection and shielding, recently conducted a survey that found 74% of over 350 people in their customer base experienced one or more negative health effects when exposed to technology.

These effects range from headaches and sleeping issues to mood changes, and many see the effects take place within the first few hours of using their devices.

“As of now the people reporting to have EHS are–I think–the canaries in the coal mine; as EMF exposure becomes more chronic I think we will see increasing amounts of people become more sensitive to their phones and electronic devices.”

In the same survey, respondents were asked whether or not they were sensitive to EMFs, of which 66% reported 'yes,' meaning the majority of people who are aware of EMFs correlate the symptoms they have while using technology with their own personal EMF sensitivity.

Today, the health impacts of EMF radiation emitting from our mobile devices and wireless networks is a controversial topic. Many claim there is no conclusive evidence proving the harmful effects of EMF radiation, due to not having a clear bio mechanism of action.

However, there is a preponderance of independently-funded research showing associations and even clear causation between EMF exposure and various health impacts. These effects include, but are not limited to: tinnitus, tingling or burning skin, concentration difficulties, brain fog, anxiety, irritability, headaches, and long-term effects such as genetic damage, reproductive defects, neurological changes, immune system dysfunction and cancer.

Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Syndrome (EHS) is a term coined by the European Commission to describe those who are highly sensitive to EMF exposure. People who suffer from EHS can experience one or more of the above listed health effects–whether it be minor tingling sensations in their fingers when on their device, or major to the point that their bodies can no longer function normally while in the presence of wireless frequencies.

Although EHS is not a proper medical diagnosis in the U.S. due to lack of information and research on how it is caused and how it can be diagnosed, it is estimated that around 20% of the world population may suffer from it. Many with EHS may also have sensitivities to chemicals (MCS) or other environmental toxins, and many deal with chronic immune illnesses.

While DefenderShield surveyed those who are familiar with EMF radiation and DefenderShield as a company, other independent surveys have also shown a significant number of respondents who are sensitive to EMF radiation. While those with EHS may be the only ones that can feel the negative impacts of EMF radiation exposure, EMF frequencies, even at the low, non-ionizing levels emitting from technology, can impact many different parts of the body and cellular functions.

"As of now the people reporting to have EHS are–I think–the canaries in the coal mine; as EMF exposure becomes more chronic I think we will see increasing amounts of people become more sensitive to their phones and electronic devices," said DefenderShield CEO Daniel DeBaun, who is an internationally-recognized EMF expert and former telecommunications engineer and executive. "Even now, I think more people have EHS than what is estimated. They just don't know their technology can actually be the culprit behind their headaches, fatigue and poor sleep."

DefenderShield recommends keeping most devices one foot away from your body to reduce exposure by 80 percent, or four feet away to eliminate exposure by 98 percent. Using wired accessories, turning off WiFi and Bluetooth functions and enabling Airplane Mode can also reduce your daily exposure. Maintaining healthy cells with an antioxidant-rich diet and proper hydration can also help your body fight environmental toxins like EMF radiation. On top of this, investing in lab-tested EMF shielding products such as phone cases, laptop shields, and other mobile accessories can reduce direct contact with electromagnetic frequencies.

DefenderShield offers the most effective EMF shielding products on the market today. Their products range from phone cases and laptop sleeves to blankets and clothing, all of which are capable of blocking 5G–the newest cellular network. Most products block up to 90 GHz, over twice the range of anything else on the market. In fact, 98% of DefenderShield customers feel safer while using their EMF shielding products. The digital wellness team at DefenderShield® has also recently launched a new brand, Lightbody™, that delivers the next generation of nutritional supplements specifically formulated to help your body become more resilient to EMFs and other environmental toxins.

The survey conducted by DefenderShield was done so via its marketing channels. The majority of respondents to the survey were primarily part of its own customer base.

Co-founded in 2011 by former telecom engineer Daniel DeBaun and his son, Ryan DeBaun, DefenderShield's mission is to improve digital wellness and reduce the harmful effects of technology with their world-leading EMF shielding cases and accessories.
