lectromagnetic elds (EMFs) arethe essence of life—enabling andactivating our genes to make usdifferent from other animals. We are,after all, almost identical to chimpan

zees when it comes to 98.8 percent of our genes. The reason we are very dif

ferent from chimpanzees is, in large part, because of the evolutionarily pro

grammed inuence of EMFs.These sensitive biochemical EMFsare precisely choreographed and, if oc

curring at the wrong time, have potentialto give us gills, scales or ippers. (Thismay help to explain some of your inlaws.)EMFs can be helpful and healing or theycan be dangerous or deadly.Throughout the entire electromag

netic spectrum, there are precise win

dows of healing or harm that depend ondifferent mechanisms. Some frequen

cies promote bone healing, for example.Doctors use electromagnetic radiation(EMR) for diagnoses with MRIs, CTscans and X-rays. Ultrasound, as well,is low frequency EMR.Our brains and hearts operate on theelectrical energy component of EMFs, asdo our nervous systems and every other function of the body. An electroenceph

alogram will detect brain abnormalitiesand an electrocardiogram will do thesame for the heart.Science has discovered how tof ocus electromagnetic radiation to shrink tumours. It is also used for deep brainstimulation in treating Parkinson’s dis

ease. Laser therapies use ultra high fre

quency EMR for eye surgery, to removewarts and x damaged blood vessels.Visible light parts of the electromagneticspectrum are used to kill bacteria, as isthe case when ultraviolet light treatment

makes drinking water safe.Entire clinical disciplines such ashomeopathy are based on defining andapplying the electromagnetic energysignatures of remedies. And, there isa strong scientific database indicatingthat pharmaceuticals’ actions are basedon biochemical-induced electromagnet

ic energy signatures that alter cell levelinteractions.In the natural world, electromagneticelds have a precision where they occur either with a spatial or temporal rhythm, but never both at once. For example, theearth’s gravity vibrates in a spatial rhythmwhile visible light vibrates in a tempo

ral rhythm. Through evolution we, andall organisms, have adapted so that weeffectively compensate for spatially andtemporally coherent eld exposures. Thatis, unless they are pushed by so much power that other effects occur.Knowledge is power and with thisknowledge, it is possible to manage ad

verse electromagnetic radiation effects.We can take appropriate precautions dueto our knowledge that overuse of a natu

rally occurring EMF, or inappropriate useof an unnatural eld, can cause harm.Modern technologies using EMFsare evolving so fast that there is a dan

gerous lag between the rushed applica

tion of the discovery and the realizationthat it may be harmful. This is the casewith wireless technologies.Wireless transmissions of voice, dataand text information is sent through the air as an Information Carrying Radio Wave(ICRW). Such a wave has both spatialand temporal coherence occurring at thesame time. Our body’s cells and, in fact,the cells of all living things, have no evo

lutionary adaptation experience with this
