Radiation Nation: Complete Guide to EMF Protection & Safety - The Proven Health Risks of EMF Radiation & What You Can Do to Protect Yourself & Family

by Ryan P. DeBaun, Daniel T. DeBaun, Dave Asprey (Foreword)

AN INVISIBLE DANGER ON THE RISE

You eat organic and non-GMO food. You only drink purified water. You take care of yourself and your family's health. But could there be a silent, invisible danger causing potential harm to you and your loved ones? There could. And it's called electromagnetic frequency (EMF) radiation and its one of fastest growing health issues facing our society. EMF radiation produced by modern technology such as cell phones, tablets, laptops, Wi-Fi, and smart meters is an emerging health threat, and we are all guinea pigs in a giant experiment with many unknown consequences.

BUT AREN'T THESE TECHNOLOGIES REGULATED AND SAFE?

Surely the government and other regulatory agencies make sure these technologies are completely safe before they are approved for wide-spread use, right? Think again. Ninety-five percent of American adults use cell phones regularly. Most households have Wi-Fi. And even schools are increasingly becoming dependent on wireless devices. And yet none of these technologies have been proven safe to humans for long-term exposure.

In fact, science confirms that the EMF emitted from common electronic devices can cause definite biological changes in the body, and mounting research has already shown it can lead to a long list of health concerns - some of which can be pretty serious.

The explosive use of mobile devices only occurred over the last twenty years, yet we have only scratched the surface of what technology is yet to come. Children born today will be exposed to much higher doses of EMF radiation than those born just ten years ago. What are the ramifications and what can we do now to minimize the fallout?

IN 'RADIATION NATION' YOU WILL LEARN:

⁍
What EMF radiation is and how it affects the body biologically

⁍
The major health risks including fertility issues for both men and women, DNA damage, cell mutation, cancer and other serious health risks

⁍
The latest scientific studies broken down by disease or condition

⁍
How EMF radiation specifically affects children and those suffering with electromagnetic hypersensitivity

⁍
Why the current safety standards for EMF are insufficient and need to be rewritten

⁍
The EMF sources of greatest concern

⁍
The most practical precautions to protect yourself and your loved ones from EMF radiation

⁍
What is 5G and what are the possible health risks?

⁍
Do stickers, diodes, harmonizers and other products marketing as protection have any grounding in science?

IS THERE A SOLUTION?

Fortunately, there are simple and effective steps you can take to minimize the risks. Education is key. Wish a foreword by Bulletproof's Dave Asprey, 'RADIATION NATION' is info-packed with all the essential education you need to make smart choices to stay safe when it comes to technology.

Daniel and Ryan DeBaun are not advocating discontinued use of cell phones and other electronic devices. Citing studies, research, and diagrams, Radiation Nation, points out potential health risks that could result from careless utilization of these devices. It stresses limited use of devices at a safe distance of a foot away from the body. Turn off Wi-Fi when not in use and turn on airplane mode. Know the safe age for children to use the devices. Learn the two forms of non-ionizing EMF: ELF and RF. Although data is not conclusive, remember it is better to be safe than sorry.

The book admits there's a lack of strong evidence and research for a lot of the correlations it makes, but it does pose some interesting questions for our society/tech going forward. Read this to make my Dad happy.

A very important read. Share it with friends and family. After not having ever thought about how dangerous a cell phone could be, I was diagnosed with a brain tumor 2 years ago. Never thought a "perfectly healthy" 37 year old would wind up having a seizure having brain surgery within the week and then enduring 6 weeks of radiation every day M-F and then 6 cycles of chemotherapy. My husband and I have been taking precautions to help reduce the amount of radiation exposure in our lives and at home. Even if you don't own a cell phone, radiation is still all around. It's even in the wiring in your home.

[Betty · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very alarming... I know people that NEVER put the cell phone down... It's on pockets or hanging around necks. OMG! And let's not even talk about wi-fi... How is it they can expose us to so much EMF without our knowledge or testing. A must-read for everyone. You can't get away from wi-fi... It's everywhere!

[Ellen · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent book! I found it very informative and a comprehensive read on the dangers of EMF's. It was easy to follow, especially if you have no prior knowledge on the subject. I recommend this book to everyone.

I received this book along with some EMF Reducing Ear Buds from the company to try out. I wrote about the EMF ear buds on a different blog.

I asked for the book too because I wasn’t familiar with EMF or the amount of radiation in wifi devices today. I learned a lot.

No one is 100% sure how bad the radiation is because it takes years for radiation to cause disease and other problems. So problems are just starting to develop and there hasn’t been enough time for lots of studies yet. However the book does shows the research so far.

I remember seeing a documentary a few years ago about someone who had multiple symptoms that only abated when they moved into a town that was electronic free or something like that. She was said to be allergic to electronic emissions. I thought it was all ridiculous but there is mounting research that shows they can be harmful. We just don’t know exactly how or when or how much is too much.

I am not ready to take drastic measures like turning off my wifi when it’s not in use (mostly because it’s always in use…) but I will consider keeping my phone away from my head and my laptop away from my lap at the least.

I received a copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.

[MaryRose Donasco · Rating 5 out of 5]

I thought this was a GREAT read. As someone who works on multiple WiFi-connected computers for 10+ hours a day from Monday to Friday and avidly uses her cell phone, I was very concerned while reading this. It's common knowledge (at least in the software world) that all electrical equipment and electronic devices emit low levels of electromagnetic fields, or EMF. Although leaps in technological advances have been made, the majority of people (including myself) never considered the negative effects of prolonged EMF exposure. Since it is virtually impossible now to avoid EMF exposure due to Wi-Fi, cell phones, computers, tablets, power lines, etc., I suggest everyone to read this book in order to stay informed and learn what you can do to help protect yourself. Sure, several websites say that there haven't been any studies PROVING that EMF radiation causes issues, but most of these devices were invented within our lifetime so we don't really know the long-term effects just yet. I've been sharing what I've learned from this book with my family and I hope to spread it around to others as well!

Radiation Nation is an important, easy-to-read, and insightful book packed with essential information for anyone curious about the safety of mobile phones, the risks of using a laptop on your lap, the radiation emitted by your WiFi router, and other radiation-related concerns. This book provides a brief yet valuable overview of the research conducted in this field, particularly in relation to our health.

It's a solid read and could be considered a concise alternative to Joseph Mercola’s EMF’d. If you don’t have the time or inclination to read Mercola’s book, this one by Daniel and Ryan DeBaun is a great choice. The book could although have digged a little bit deeper into the science.

[Ian · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a very important topic, and definitely should be talked about and wrote about and studied.

But I just didn't feel like this book hit it off. Well, mostly the first seven chapters.

It felt like one big long citation until the last three chapters. Kind of hard to read. That said, it was an okay book and definitely something that should be in the hands of more people.

If you are looking for a good controversial medical science/research book, I would recommend Human Heart, Cosmic Heart by Dr. Thomas Cowan.

3.5 Stars

[Blerou · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a controversial book. It takes a look at all the forms of radiation that is around us. Tries to confirm the point of view with a lot of studies. But two things stick in my mind. First, a lot of belief should be put into the view to be acceptable. The scientific evidence is not clear. Second, I find no method that describes how to measure these kinds of radiations before we start to protect ourselves against them. However, the health advice package at the end is a good one.

[Brier Wood · Rating 2 out of 5]

I think this book is good if you’re a “beginner” in trying to take steps to limit exposure or if you’re just waking up to the dangers of EMF radiation. But, I’d also argue that if you’re already hip to all that stuff, then this book is kinda pointless for you (as it was for me)
To be fair I got the book years ago and just now got around to reading it, so maybe it would’ve been more useful and “new” information had I read it when I originally purchased it.

[Emily Stannard · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.5 stars. It’s interesting with a lot of research mentioned, but it’s very focused on the US and sometimes I wasn’t too convinced about the relevance of some of the research cited. Having said that, it has definitely made me think and much more aware of how I interact with electronic devices. It wasn’t brilliantly written but it’s a simple enough book to understand.

[Todd Cheng · Rating 4 out of 5]

A collection of shallow axioms, tweets, and snips or similar like shares on the topic of electronic emanations. A necessary read for a perspective on possible risks, but I desire a deeper investigation into baseline or control radiation compared to the capabilities being deployed now.

[Eike Post Preischaft · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very relevant topic, which influences us all: radiation from cellphones, wifi and laptops. Well explained.

[Janine · Rating 3 out of 5]

Has some good information but I thought Nicolas Pineault's book The Non-Tin Foil Guide to EMF's was better.

[Vincent Zhang · Rating 1 out of 5]

The book sucks, felt like the author didn't fully understand what he was writing. 50% of the book is long quotes and shallow summaries.

[Ankit Kumar · Rating 5 out of 5]

'Extremely helpful'

The kind of information this book contains is enough to make anyone cautious about the new pollution of 21st century - Electromagnetic Radiation (EMF).

[Terry Stick · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent book on EMF radiation

Loved this book. It explains the risks of EMF radiation without too many technical words and is easy to understand.

[Jacopo S · Rating 3 out of 5]

A few interesting points. Nothing incredible. Easy read.

[Savannah McClelland · Rating 5 out of 5]

On point! This book is full of great information that should be mandatory for all FCC and other regulators to read to the Public.

[Georgia · Rating 5 out of 5]

fascinating :)

[Radu Ionescu · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good reference book if you want to have access to organised in depth research about EMF.
As an entry point to EMF I recommend the no tinfoil guide though, it's an easier read and has more actionable defence techniques.

[Cletus Lee · Rating 2 out of 5]

A great example of how to turn a 4 page pamphlet into a full sized book.
