EMF in Children's Exposure

  • -## Children's EMF Exposure: Understanding the Unique Risks Children face a fundamentally different EMF landscape than adults.
  • -Their developing nervous systems absorb radiation at rates up to 10 times higher than adult brains, according to research from France's National Frequency Agency.
  • -Yet the devices surrounding our kids today - from baby monitors broadcasting all night to tablets held inches from developing brains - weren't designed with children's unique vulnerabilities in mind.
