EMF Fields
Dr. Howard W. Fisher, B.Sc., B.Ed., D.C., Toronto, Canada
"Electromagnetic fields of assorted strengths and frequencies abound in our environment.

When electricity leaves the energy production plant, it is clean 50 or 60 Hertz sine wave energy; however along the way it is affected by power surges (transients), radio frequencies (RF), and harmonics as it passes through electronic resistances and devices.

The electricty gets chopped up into smaller segments, gathers high frequencies (RF), and spreads out to flow across wires, pipes and even the ground.

The electrical energy generated by power plants has a lot of opportunity to pick up these frequencies.

The energy leaves the generating facility and travels across high-voltage power-lines and is then routed through transformers (which lower the voltage) and into individual homes.

Electric and magnetic fields surround every aspect of this energy transmission."

ELFs (electromagnetic fields) are produced by the creation, transmission, and subsequent use of electricity by any device.

In other words, power lines, electrical wiring, transformers and electrical equipment create this hazard, although the actual fields in your home are dependent upon many factors

If you take a moment and just think about it, how many electrical appliances or conveniences do you use daily?

EMFs' effects are on a cumulative basis, so awareness of your environment can help you make wise decisions."

The illustration above, which shows the high frequency current riding on the 60-cycle waveform, was measured in a classroom occupied by a teacher who recently died of a brain tumor. The teacher in the adjoining room had recently died from leukemia. Dr. Vitaly Reznik, professor of hygiene and epidemiology in the Republic of Kazakhastan and an expert on the effects of radio-frequency radiation, said the energy contained in the waveform was twice that considered safe by that nation's standards, which are based on 'high frequency components that [are] known to cause an array of health problems in humans,'
including cancer and leukemia.
