finds that just about every tablet and cellphone exceeds safety limits by one and half to three and a half times when they're touching our bodies! That is justHUGEStylus! Make sure your kids do too.
As we always say, distance is your friend when it comes to your devices. Keep it away from your head, out of your pocket, never tuck it into your bra, sleep with it under your pillow and for goodness sake, never, ever put your laptop on your lap without a big fluffy pillow. Exactly how far away is safe? The experts we've talked to agree that 12-18" is the distance that will reduce most of your dangerous EMF exposure.
Over 30 years of valid scientific studies have proven that we do have a biological reaction when we're exposed to high levels of EMF. Just like when you smell diesel fumes or pesticides-- The World Health Organization classifies cell phone radiation in the same category as those toxins, possible carcinogens.
So the next time you catch someone you love texting wildly, toss them a stylus- or if they have the phone next to their head, feel free hand them an headphone (air tube's are best) or encourage them to place the phone on Speaker Mode. When they roll their eyes--instead of thanking you--just say, "There I go again, taking care of your health and happiness. You can thank me later."
