Electricity & Geomagnetism

On this page you'll find a selection of resources that explore the impact that electromagnetic fields have on health. Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs) are created by electricity as it moves towards equipment and powers it. In some parts of many homes the sheer quantity of electrical equipment creates dangerous levels of electromagnetic fields. They travel through walls, floors and ceilings depleting melatonin and disturbing sleepers.

Some of the resources also discuss the health impact of distorted geomagnetic fields. These magnetic fields are created by the earth's core and get distorted and amplified as they pass through mineral deposits in the crust.
