hi i'm dr janine bowring naturopathic doctor and today i'm talking about how to minimize
emf exposure or emr so electromagnetic radiation or fields exposure we know that we're inundated
with emfs from all of our modern world and technologies so whether it's our cell phones
whether it's our tablets or laptops it could even be baby monitors our wi-fi routers anything that
is plugged in even an induction stove believe it or not gives off emfs and it's something
that i've measured in my office and in my home i just got a little emf reader
there are different types and this is not a fancy one there are definitely better ones but
this gives you an indication and i was shocked to find out some of my exposures even in my own
environment and you know things that i could actually change and move away from and unplug
certain things in my home and in my office to be able to protect myself so what else can we do well
in other videos i've talked about some supplements that we can take to help to protect ourselves
some things that we can do with our diet and foods to eat to help to protect ourselves from emf
radiation but today i'm talking about something different and one of the things that we can do
and if we can do this daily is called grounding so grounding means getting out into nature preferably
with bare feet and the grass is great especially first thing in the morning when it has dew and
it's a little bit moist because we know that of course liquids increase the conductivity
of our electromagnetic system because as humans we are electromagnetic and the way that our blood
flows and the water in our body the way that our brain works our circadian rhythms are all
based on this proper electromagnetic flow and of our electrons and our protons in our bodies so
really important that we ground our energy and by doing that by walking barefooted
on the grass you could also do this on a beach so the sand has that same impact for helping
to ground our energy so what doesn't work is if you have rubber soles on your shoes and this is
something that i was guilty of even in my own home for years wearing my slippers in the house that
had a rubber sole not so good for grounding so i make a huge effort to get outside into the grass
with my bare feet and for about 20 minutes once even twice a day is much better to help to ground
your energy but this is really really helpful to decrease that negative impact of those emfs
on our body now if you've got the leather sole shoes this is definitely okay and i always you
know wondered about socks so yes socks are okay as well if they're caught in natural fiber of course
and if your feet are a little bit sweaty then that actually helps with that grounding impact
you can also ground yourself on ceramic tiles if they're not specially coated so if it's just the
you know the ceramic and natural surfaces so concrete as well you are able to ground yourself
again with if you've got bare feet hopefully there's not been when the concrete was was laid
out if there's a plastic barrier then that will minimize your ability to ground but do your best
if you look at animals in nature if you look at a dog that sort of rolls around on his back
in the dirt in the grass that is in his essence of grounding as well so always look to nature nature
gives us so many signs and and signals uh the things that we should be doing to keep ourselves
healthy because we are animals as well another thing is exercise so we know that exercise has
so many benefits but also for emf exposure and to decrease that risk of damaging our cells and what
exercise does it helps our oxygenation but it also improves our nitric oxide and nitric oxide
is something that in the right amounts is like a stressor in the body but in the right amount can
be very helpful at protecting our cells because then our body has to react to that nitric oxide
and allow for the cascade of that antioxidant effect to actually happen in our bodies so
one of the things that i love and i've talked about in a previous video is bfr training so blood
flow restriction training it's when you strap bands around your upper arm above your biceps
and above your quads and it partially restricts the blood flow so that it is helping to increase
that nitric oxide helps to increase that pump in the muscle and and get that that activation of
that muscle fiber and that building of the muscle fiber and you do this again for usually not more
than 20 minutes where you are wearing the bands and of course you don't want to fully restrict
that blood flow you still have to be able to have your function to be able to lift your weights
but one of the advantages especially as we're all aging is that older individuals usually
do not lift the heaviest heaviest weights to decrease the likelihood of injuring yourself
so you can actually lift much lighter weights and still get the same benefit in that muscle
growth without you know having to lift those heavy weights with the bands when you're using
the bfr training so thanks for joining me today those were some great tips on how to minimize the
negative impacts of emfs on our body and that radiation exposure check out our other videos as
well on this topic we have a full one hour episode on the dr janine show in part one and part two
of this whole you know subject around emfs and how to protect ourselves and how to do it naturally
