Devices which Protect from Harmful Electromagnetic Fields
Introduction
It
has been coming increasingly to public attention (especially
since the advent of mobile phones) that health risks can arise
from prolonged exposure to certain 1 man-made
electromagnetic fields. Indeed it has been known for decades
that such fields, even when non-ionising, and very weak, can
have deleterious effects on cell cultures and small organisms.
But for human beings it has proved difficult to obtain the sort
of evidence hich would convince mainstream doctors and scientists. 2
This is mainly
because the effect of these fields on health is quite general.
Thus there is no one specific illness which could offer a
tidy objective way to measure EM field effects. While a few
studies suggest increased rates of some serious illnesses,
especially cancer, the weight of current evidence now comes
from other measures of stress, such as headaches, sore eyes
and mental fatigue in people who, for example, work long hours
with computers.
While there are
ways to quantify such subjective effects, it is more practicable,
and ultimately more convincing, to use more objective methods,
such as brain wave recordings. These, and some of the new
methods derived from energy medicine, can provide quantitative
information almost immediately a person is exposed to a harmful
field. Two examples, mentioned below, are based on resistance
measurements at acupuncture points, and gas discharge visualisation
- which is merely a more general term to cover all methods
based on Kirlian photography.
How can we be protected?
One's first thought
might be to try to shield the body from such fields. The problem
here is that some of the most harmful radiations are now thought
to lie in the Extra Low Frequency (brain-wave) region of the
spectrum, and these are very hard to shield against. On the
other hand the kinds of shields provided with computers and
mobile phones are only effective against much higher frequencies.
There now exist,
however, a number of devices which are claimed to protect
against such fields. This article describes two of these for
which the evidence that they work seems to me to be particularly
good. Although their exact construction is of course proprietary,
it is clear enough that the principles by which they work
are well-founded in science - although not understandable
in terms of the most conventional physics.
A. TecnoAO Electromagnetic
Bioprotection Antenna
This
company A
makes two small devices: one adapted for attachment to a computer
screen; the other for a mobile phone.
Having no battery
or electronics, these devices are stated to contain ionic
solutions of which the cyclotron resonance 3
frequencies have been tuned to certain critical frequencies
in the human body. These are the frequencies at which computers
or mobile phones are most likely to exert their deleterious
effects. The effectiveness of these devices is supported by
a number of studies done in university departments in France,Germany,
Britain and Japan.
For
example, Prof D Clements-Croome of Reading University, has
recently carried out three double-blind crossover trials among
VDU workers. 4 He
found an average of 50% improvement in 14 common symptoms,
which included headache, sore eyes, mental acuity, fatigue,
colds/flu and depression, etc.
In a more objective
study on the "sore-eyes" symptom, a Japanese group has been
able to measure the corneal injury occurring after 4 hours
using a video game, and show that such injury was significantly
less in the presence of the TecnoAO.
In studies using
mice it was found that exposure to a TV screen reduced the
number of both red and white cells in the blood, whereas the
TecnoAO gave considerable protection against this effect.
Most impressive,
perhaps, are the tests done with chicken embryos. Embryos
(including human of course) are known to be extremely sensitive
to EM fields. Even so, it comes as something of a shock that,
when developing eggs were incubated near a VDU, only about
30% of them hatched. Furthermore, those that did hatch had
highly abnormal levels of some hormones and immuno-globulins.
But when eggs were incubated near a VDU in the presence of
the TecnoAO, the numbers hatching, and hormone and immuno-globulin
levels were close to normal.
B. QLink2
This
is a small pendant
B , which is worn around
the neck. It is claimed not only to reduce the ill effects
of computers, mobile phones, and other known sources of EM
fields, but to enhance health generally. Because of this it
is recommended to wear the pendant all the time. Like the
TecnoAO, its operation depends on recent scientific understanding
of subtle energy, but otherwise works on rather different
principles.
Rather than being
preset to any specific frequencies, it adapts itself over
a period of days to the natural frequencies of the wearer.
(I don't know how it does this). According to speculations
by the biophysicist Dr TM Srinavasan, it brings these into
resonance with the same frequencies, selected out of the infinite
spectrum of the zero-point field (ZPF). The effect of this
is to improve the coherence (or signal/noise ratio) of the
body's own vibrations.
The evidence
for effectiveness of the QLink is very impressive. Twenty-two
volunteers (with no obvious health problems) were used in
a study of the balance of acupuncture meridians, using electrical
measurements with the Computronix Acupro II system.
It was shown
how exposure to an EM field, of the type people are so often
exposed to, put these measurements out of balance, and how
the balance was restored while wearing the QLink, even while
EM field exposure continued. Indeed the balance while the
individuals were both exposed to the field and wearing the
QLink was better than the baseline condition when they had
neither of these.
Another study
was done with the new technique of live-blood microscopy.
This technique enables one to see that most people, especially
those suffering from chronic illnesses, have distorted red
and white cells, together with various kinds of debris in
the serum.
Four volunteers,
none of whom suffered obvious ill health, nevertheless showed
some of these pathological blood characteristics. These increased
after eight hours exposure to an EM field. After a further
three days, during which they both wore the QLink, and continued
to have EM field exposure, the blood picture came back to
normal - in fact rather better than it was before EM field
exposure began.
In a second study,
the QLink was found to improve the blood picture in all of
another eight volunteers, without any EM field exposure.
In a recent study,
Prof William Tiller and Dr Norman Shealy 5 have
recorded the EEG from a number of volunteers, who were either:
(a) in their usual state, or
(b) wearing QLink, or
(c) exposed to the EM field, or
(d) exposed to EM field while wearing QLink.
It was shown
first how EM fields distorted the EEG, while the QLink alone
had no such ill effects, and then how the QLink both restored
the pattern of those exposed to the EM field, and even improved
the pattern of those who were not so exposed.
Recently
I have tested my Kirlian image, either wearing or not wearing
the QLink, by means of the CrownTV computerised Kirlian instrument. 6
The differences in various quantitative parameters were quite
remarkable.
Finally, in many
testimonials, wearers have reported subjective improvements
in well-being, mental clarity and general health.
In addition,
there is evidence, using other devices working on the same
principle, that the coherence even of physical systems is
improved.
For example,
with such a device in the vicinity, computer errors were reduced,
the sharpness of sound and vision in audio-visual systems
were improved, and even the life of batteries was increased.

Note that of course not all EM fields
are harmful.
Amongst beneficial fields are sunlight, and the earth's
natural (Schumann) resonance. Moreover, fields from
EM therapy instruments can be very beneficial - at least
in the short term. |

A group has recently been set up
with the objectives of investigating these adverse health
effects, and bringing them to the attention of all concerned:
politicians, health workers, and the general public.
This group, called the Electromagnetics and Biocompatibility
Association (EMBA) includes scientists, engineers, architects
and health workers among its members.

Any ion which is free to move, when
exposed to a magnetic field of a certain strength (e.g.
that of the earth) will be put into vibration only by
EM fields of a particular frequency: the cyclotron resonance
frequency for the ion in question. The theory behind
the TecnoAO is that man-made EM fields become deleterious
to health when they contain frequencies which match
those of critical ions such as Calcium. |
