Remember, this is the type of radiation that’s potentially dangerous to your health. High levels of high-frequency EMFs can damage DNA and cells . Low levels of this radiation come from medical devices like X-ray imaging machines , and UV rays from tanning beds or the sun.
Read moreWhat electromagnetic waves cause cancer?
To date, no form of electromagnetic energy at frequency levels below those of ionizing radiation (x-rays) and ultraviolet radiation has been shown to cause cancer.
Read moreWhat is considered high level EMF?
Summary: Electric field readings within living spaces above 10 V/m (Volts per meter) are considered high. Dangerous levels of electric field radiation are talked about much less than magnetic field and radio frequency radiation.
Read moreWho is International EMF Project?
As part of its charter to protect public health and in response to public concern over health effects of EMF exposure, the World Health Organization (WHO) established the International EMF Project in 1996 to assess the scientific evidence of possible health effects of EMF in the frequency range from 0 to 300 GHz .
Read moreWhat are the WHO guidelines for magnetic field safety?
Routine occupational exposures should not exceed 600 mT (6000 G) to the extremities on an 8 hr time weighted average . A maximum ceiling (i.e. maximum value at any time) should be 2 T for the whole body and 5 T for the extremities.
Read moreWhat does an EMF stand for?
Electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) are invisible areas of energy, often referred to as Radiation, that are associated with the use of electrical power and various forms of natural and man-made lighting.
