Non-native electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation increases cancer risk. We are all exposed.
“Brandon LaGreca has done an extraordinary job of articulating the science underlying the EMF health effects issue, the different types of EMFs that are ubiquitous in our world, and the many steps that we can take to begin cleaning up our electromagnetic environment.” Charles Keen—EMF Services, LLC
Cancer and EMF Radiation details the science showing DNA damage from nonionizing EMFs, mechanisms of action of cancer formation from EMF exposure, and practical strategies to protect you and your family.
Cancer and EMF Radiation introduces four corroborating lines of evidence suggesting that EMFs are a far more significant risk factor for the development of a number of cancers than previously
•Mechanistic research on the effects of EMFs on melatonin and calcium channels •Long-term epidemiological studies of cancer development from EMF exposure •Experimental research showing DNA damage from EMF exposure •Research from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services National Toxicology Program documenting “clear evidence” of increased cancer growth from EMF radiation in animal models
Cancer and EMF Radiation examines these sources of harmful
•Microwave radiation—radiofrequency fields from mobile phones, smart meters, and Wi-Fi networks •Low-frequency EMFs—AC electric and magnetic fields from household wiring and connected devices •Voltage transients—higher-frequency harmonics in the electrical grid known as dirty electricity
Cancer and EMF Radiation presents three actionable strategies to protect yourself from
•Avoidance—how to properly measure EMFs to determine safe exposure •Remediation—how to change lighting and alter electrical circuits to remove voltage transients •Shielding—technologies that effectively block EMF transmission into the body

Brandon LaGreca, LAc, MAcOM grew up on the east coast and attended Montclair State University where he received a bachelors degree in science with a minor in religion, summa cum laude. He then moved to the west coast to a fulfill a dream from the age of 12 to study traditional Chinese medicine. He was accepted to the prestigious Oregon College of Oriental Medicine where he earned his Masters in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. His post-graduate work included studying and working at Nanjing University of traditional Chinese medicine in China.
10 years into his private practice, Brandon experienced firsthand the journey of the wounded healer when a series of small bowel obstructions lead to hospitalization and diagnosis of stage 4 non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. He achieved remission 8 months later following an integrative oncology protocol that included immunotherapy, but without surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy. He now lectures and writes on the epigenetics of cancer and has dedicated his career to empowering patients through and beyond chronic illnesses such as cancer. His latest interests include studying indigenous forms of healing and ecospirituality.
If you don’t have the opportunity to read a longer work on the harmful effects of man-made wireless radiation, especially its possible link to cancer, this book offers a unique introduction to the topic. It explains the types of damage such radiation may cause, focusing in particular on the forms of cancer it may contribute to, as well as ways to protect yourself from exposure. The book is short, clear, and easy to read, yet still gives the reader plenty to think about. It refers to both older and more recent research and highlights some of the pioneers in the field. A great short book about this important and often overlooked topic.
This is a short nonfiction book about the harms of electropollution from all of the cell phones, smart devices, Wi-Fi, etc. in use today, and how we can take steps to limit our exposure to these devices. It especially discusses how several recent studies have linked this excess of radiation to cancer, as well as other health problems.
I thought that the author did his research, and was able to condense all of this research into this brief book rather well. I felt he could have gone into more details on several topics (He lists a paint that protects against EMF waves; what metals are in it that do this, and does it contain toxic lead? He speaks of a study that used "gingko" [SIC] extract to prevent oxidative stress in the brains of rats exposed to the same frequency of radiation common to mobile phones; what was the dosage used in this study? A Faraday cage may be useful for certain situations/devices; how do you make one? He says that "phytochemical-rich plants" produce chemical compounds that help in detoxification and protect against cancer development; what phytochemicals, what plants, and how much should be used?), but instead he gives only snippets and puts a list of references in the back so that people have to look elsewhere for more info. He mentioned multiple times that certain things were outside the scope of this work, but I felt that the work could have benefited from more detail.
I still think that the book presents the casual reader with a great starting point to further their education on the subject, and I would highly recommend this book to the vast majority of people out there, since to some extent we are all effected by radiation. Four and a half stars.
Provides valuable insight into the EMF world around us, along with practical steps that can be taken. I appreciated how this wasn't presented in a total alarmist, head for the hills mindset, but with common sense and practicality.
