The Powerwatch Handbook: Simple Ways to Make Your Environment Safer

by Alasdair Philips, Jean Philips

This simple, no-nonsense guide to EMFs and how to reduce their harmful effect presents information in an easy-to-follow handbook style. EMF levels are graded using a star rating system, high-level items are highlighted, and practical tips are given in step-by-step, bullet point form. Electrical wiring and appliances, overhead power lines, machinery, photocopiers, cell phones, radio masts, TVs, tube trains, x-rays and laser beams are among the hundreds of everyday items that are now known to give off high levels of microwave radiation. Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) can be biologically active and capable of making changes to the structure of human and animal cells which are exposed to them. Long-term exposure is believed by an increasing number of scientists and environmentalists to be connected to tumors, fertility problems, behavior and mood changes, and concentration and memory loss; and also to affect melatonin production and impair our immune system repair mechanisms.

It was an informative read though quite dated. It was still eye opening to read about EMF and how it affects us daily. After reading this book I want to dive deeper into how I can prioritize removing as much EMF in my daily life. We are so attached to gadgets and so dependent on everything electrically powered we forget how toxic it actually is to our bodies and well-being.
