Research on EMF throughout the home - electrical wiring, smart home hubs, and WiFi coverage.
Your home should be your sanctuary - the place where you rest, recharge, and spend more time than anywhere else. Yet the reality is that modern homes have become dense EMF environments, with multiple sources operating simultaneously throughout your living space. From the electrical wiring behind your walls to the WiFi router broadcasting 24/7, from smart meters collecting usage data to the web of power lines feeding your neighborhood, these sources create what researchers call a "cumulative exposure environment.
