High Electromagnetic Field Exposure in Kindergarten Children: Study in South Korea

/

Sensitive areas like schools, kindergartens, hospital, and other public facilities have been of great concerns of various studies on Electromagnetic fields (EMFs).

This study includes 24 kindergartens across Busan, South Korea (12 kindergartens located near UGTL and 12 kindergartens without UGTL).

Research conclusions

The maximum mean value of the EMF emission level was 13.5 mG around the kindergartens and 17.7 mG from the point of UGTL to kindergartens. EMF emission level around the kindergartens was significantly associated with the location of the UGTL (t = −7.35, P < 0.001).

  • These estimates are not trivial, as long-term exposure to EMF among kindergarten children can lead to different health problems.

  • Routine monitoring of EMF emission levels is recommended including the awareness of EMF exposure to public citizens.

  • It is not appropriate to ignore the fact that EMFs are potentially carcinogenic to children. Proper installation solutions should be implemented for the minimization of the EMF level around the public sensitive areas with routine monitoring.

EMFs and Birth (And a Personal Story): A Calm EMF-Environment for a Safe, Healthy Pregnancy

A calm EMF environment lays the groundwork for health conception and pregnancy. All of our biological systems are electrical. Our hearts and brains are regulated by internal bioelectrical signals, for example. Any environmental exposure to artificial EMFs can interact with fundamental biological processes in the human body. Eliminating artificial EMFs is top priority before, during, and after pregnancy as the baby develops.

This is especially important as pregnancy and birth is also a mental game.

Research: What Makes Smart and Healthy Buildings?

This paper examines key reasons as to why action should be taken include potential liability risks when technology is not implemented safely. International measures and guidelines for lower RFR exposure are highlighted. Practices are outlined and recommendations made to minimize the impact of RFR on public and environmental health in the design, construction and maintenance of safer, modern buildings.

Why Both Mother and Baby Need a Biological Space

Much of the focus is around the physical, mental, and emotional changes and challenges mothers can expect, and the whole development of the baby to look forward to. Less attention is paid to the factors in our personal spaces that can help or impede the desires and goals we have for a healthy mother and child, as well as the sort of nurturing spaces we want to set up for optimal heallth.

Five studies you should know about environmental toxicity and your child's health

Childhood is an amazing time of rapid growth and development, and should be protected. But there’s accumulating evidence that the environment we live in is increasingly a threatening one for our most vulnerable. Even before babies are born, environmental pollutants, found in our personal spaces and daily items, can be causing developmental harm.
