Computer emits both VLF (Very Low Frequency) electromagnetic radiation and ELF (Extremely Low Frequency) electromagnetic radiation, as well as soft x-rays.
As with all radiation, the closer in proximity to the source, as well as the longer the duration of time in the field, the more detrimental the electromagnetic frequencies upon the body.
Using a computer for anywhere from 4 to 8 hours a day is not unusual in today’s society. According to a recent survey conducted by Kelton Research, the majority of Americans spend more time with their computer than their own spouse. This long duration of time, coupled with the close proximity to the screen, makes the computer a very serious EMF health hazard.
If computers are such a serious EMF health hazard, then why hasn’t any ‘official’ government agency made a statement regarding their use. Well, some governments have.
The Australian government recommends no more than 5 hours a day on a computer as a safety limit and in some parts of the US and Britain, pregnant women are not allowed to use computers in the workplace due to the risk of radiation exposure for the developing fetus.
Some people are under the misconception that laptops are safer than desktops. Read your laptop manual. It will clearly state, albeit in very small print, ‘Warning: Do Not Place on Lap’. Placing a laptop on the lap has been linked to testicular cancer in men.
Check in with your body to see how you feel after being on your computer for a few hours. Are you eyes tired, does it feel harder to regulate your breath, does your head hurt, are you a little spaced out, a little irritable…do you feel drained? These are all symptoms of exposure to electromagnetic frequencies.
