53: Understanding EMFs: Ben Salem on Radiation Risks and Mitigation Techniques
Manage episode 428130241 series 3506750
My guest for this episode is Ben Salem, a real estate developer who stumbled into the EMF mitigation business out of concern for his kids’ health. Ben shares his journey from a worried parent to the founder of WaveBlock, a company dedicated to reducing harmful radiation from everyday devices.
WaveBlock is a sticker that you attach to your devices, which then works to disperse rather than block radiation, making it an effective and user-friendly solution for mitigating EMF exposure without completely disconnecting from modern conveniences.
Ben and I talk about the distinction between natural EMFs and the man-made ones that saturate our modern environment (including why this exposure is a growing concern), as well as the key differences between ionizing and non-ionizing radiation (and why the latter, despite being less understood, can still pose significant health risks).
Ben’s hands-on approach, including converting his office into a Faraday cage for testing, highlights the lengths he’s gone to ensure the effectiveness of his products. And his insight into how children are especially vulnerable to EMF exposure due to their thinner skulls is eye-opening.
If you’ve ever wondered about the invisible waves that permeate our lives and how to protect yourself and your loved ones, this episode is packed with valuable insights and practical advice.
And if you’re new to the topic, make sure to read my article about how EMFs impact your health for a deep dive into the science.
