10 Best EMF Protection Tips for a Safer, Healthier Life

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

At SYB, we make some of the best EMF protection products available in the world. So, sometimes it surprises people when I tell them that the best EMF protection is free – completely free.

And you can start right now, with our ten EMF protection tips to live a safer, healthier life alongside modern technology.

Let’s dive in.

Understanding EMF Protection: What You Need to Know

The science is clear: we’re exposing ourselves to way more EMF every day than what our bodies can handle. And it’s not good for us.

EMF exposure can harm our sleep, hormones, and internal systems and, in the worst cases, even lead to serious illnesses like cancer.

Where do you carry your phone?

Want to Slash Your EMF Health Risks?

Good! Learn the one small change you should make right now.

So, what’s the solution? Turn off all your EMF-enabled gadgets and live off the grid? Or try to eliminate all the EMF sources in your immediate surroundings?

Absolutely not. The goal here isn’t to create an EMF-free existence but to help you live a safer, healthier life alongside it.

But don’t worry, unlike most “best EMF protection” articles on the internet, I won’t ask you to buy a bunch of EMF protection products.

Look, I’m not trying to downplay the importance of EMF shielding. In fact, my company makes and sells lab-tested, highly effective EMF protection products. And they work.

But we also recognize that EMF protection is much more than simply buying EMF protection gear. It’s about making healthier changes in your lifestyle so you can continue to enjoy your EMF-enabled gadgets without subjecting yourself to the risks that tag along.

Why is the Best EMF Protection Free?

Now that you’re familiar with what EMF protection really is, let’s look at some science to see why it can be free.

See, EMF is an energy. And anyone with a basic understanding of physics knows that energy works in a particular way. The less you’re exposed to it, the less it affects you. And even though it’s powerful at the source, its power diminishes exponentially as it moves further away.

So, with these two characteristics in mind, we’ve developed the two key rules of EMF protection: Minimize Use & Maximize Distance.

These are the two rules to follow. Simply minimize your use of EMF-generating tech, and maximize the distance between your body and the EMF source.

It’s that simple. Here are ten examples showcasing real-life scenarios where you can use the two key rules of EMF protection.

Minimize Use

You may have heard about digital minimalism. It’s an ongoing trend that asks you to take a mindful approach to technology use, prioritizing focused and intentional interactions over passive consumption.

The minimize-use rule is similar to digital minimalism. Simply ask yourself a question: Is this absolutely necessary? If it’s not, then you have your answer.

Have a look.

Turn Off your WiFi Router at Night

WiFi routers are a relatively significant source of EMF radiation exposure in many homes. And most people keep their routers on 24 hours a day, leading to significant cumulative non-stop exposure.

So, ask yourself. Is it absolutely necessary for me to keep my router turned on at night?

turn off your router at night this is one of the ways you can make the best EMF protection free

If you aren’t someone who has to perform data backups or system updates at night or use the internet for its accessibility purposes, your answer, most probably, is no.

So, in that case, turn off your WiFi router as soon as you’re done using the internet in the evening. That will give you at least 8-9 hours of EMF-free environment. And I can’t even begin to stress how great that is.

Don’t Carry Your Phone in Your Pocket

When your phone is pressed directly against your body, it is likely one of your biggest – if not the biggest – sources of your EMF exposure.

Even many cell phone companies like Apple tell you not to carry your phone in your pocket, because if you do, your exposure can exceed safety standards.

So don’t carry your phone in your pocket, or turn it into airplane mode if you do.

Don’t Buy Smart Stuff You Don’t Need

Each and every device you buy is a new source of EMF. And with all the new “smart” tech being developed and released, a whole new class of products are now EMF sources.

For example, a door lock was never a source of EMF until they introduced “smart” locks.

As each new device is an additional source of EMF radiation, really consider whether the benefits of this new device outweigh the increased risk to your health.

Delay Getting Your Child a Smartphone

There are a lot of reasons – unrelated to EMF exposure – to delay getting your child a phone.

Studies have linked ownership and use of phones to decreased grades and increased anxiety in children.

Delay Getting Your Child a Smartphone

This is the basis of the Wait Until 8th Grade movement.

But an added benefit of delaying getting your child a smartphone is that they’ll be exposed to much less EMF. This is even more important because children are more vulnerable to damage from EMF radiation.

Use WiFi Calling Instead of Cell Data

In my opinion, you don’t even need to ask yourself if you really need your phone’s mobile connectivity if WiFi calling is an option.

WiFi emits much less power than a cellular connection. So, if you use WiFi calling instead of cellular, you can still get all the benefits of your cell phone (sending and receiving calls and texts) with much less radiation.

So, use WiFi calling whenever you can.

Maximize Distance

While you can’t stop modern technology from emitting EMF, you can control how much it affects your body by simply creating a distance between your body and the EMF source.

This works because of the inverse square law.

Inverse square law says that best emf protection free is to create a distance from the EMF source

Though there’s a ton of complex math involved, in simple words, the law states that the power of EMF weakens exponentially with distance.  

Each additional inch – even millimeter – of distance that you put between yourself and the source of the EMF will have a big impact on your exposure.

Literally every inch matters when it comes to your EMF exposure.

Have a look at how you can realistically distance yourself from EMF sources.

Don’t Sleep with Your Phone

Many studies show that sleeping with your phone can significantly disrupt your sleep.

In addition to that, if you sleep with your phone, you’re being exposed to cell phone radiation all night long – when you’re not even using the phone.

So don’t bring it to bed, or turn the airplane mode on if you do.

The Best Place to Put Your Router Isn’t Near You

As I mentioned above, WiFi routers are a significant source of EMF radiation in the home and office. And the closer you are to the router, the more powerful the EMF radiation is.

So, you can still enjoy WiFi – just keep the router at least 5 meters away (Approx. 17 feet) from where you and your family spend your time.

This will make a big difference in your exposure.

Use The Speakerphone Function or a Wired Headset

Just like you shouldn’t carry your phone in your pocket, you also shouldn’t hold your phone up to your head (and using Bluetooth headphones is not safe).

In fact, this is even more important because when you’re making a call, your phone is emitting much more EMF radiation.

So, instead of how you normally make or answer calls, use the speakerphone function or a wired headset at the least.

Don’t Use Your Laptop on Your Lap

Just like phones shouldn’t be held against your body, neither should laptops. Despite their name, laptops aren’t for laps. That’s part of the reason why many big companies have started calling their laptops “notebooks.”

When you use your laptop on your lap, you expose your sensitive reproductive organs to your laptop’s massive EMF emissions. And that isn’t good.  

So, place your laptop on a table and sit on a chair at a comfortable distance.

Keep Your Furniture Away from Outlets

All AC power – whether from our kitchen appliances or from the electrical lines that power them – emits EMF radiation.

Power outlets can act as a more concentrated source of this radiation – especially when they have something plugged into them.

So, keep your furniture as far away from them as possible.

The Best EMF Protection Products

So now that you know how to get the best EMF protection for free, let’s also have a look at how EMF protection products can help enhance this protection.

The reason I’m talking about this is that even though minimizing use and maximizing distance is a great strategy, it’s not always possible to follow these rules. Sometimes you may need to carry your phone in your pocket or keep the WiFi router close to your body.

Enter EMF protection products.

I call them the second line of defense in EMF protection. Using these products, you can stay protected even in situations that don’t allow you to minimize use or maximize distance.

Here are some of the lab-tested EMF protection solutions from SYB.

SYB Phone Pouch

The SYB Phone Pouch is designed specifically to make it safer to carry your phone in your pocket when you need to.

SYB Phone Pouch when using the best EMF protection for free isn't an option

Just place your phone inside the Pouch and then carry the Pouch in your pocket or on your belt, to protect your body from up to 99% of your cell phone’s radiation emissions.

SYB 5G Phone Shield

Our SYB 5G Phone Shield is similar to the Pouch, but it’s designed for people who don’t want to use pouches or carry their phones on their belts. 

Video: Introducing the SYB 5G Phone Shield

Simply put the SYB 5G Phone Shield in your pocket and slide your phone on top of it.

Here’s the configuration: Your body>>SYB 5G Phone Shield>>Phone.

Doing this turns your pocket into a powerful cell phone radiation shield, making it significantly safer to carry your phone.

And the good thing about both products, the SYB Phone Pouch and the SYB 5G Phone Shield is that they shield your phone on one side only, ensuring that the shield won’t interfere with your battery life or reception.

Plus, both products are lab-tested to shield against the new 5G frequencies.

SYB Laptop Pad

As I mentioned before, laptops are also a huge source of EMF. And when you use one on your lap, it exposes your sensitive reproductive organs to its massive EMF emissions.

But what if you’re in a situation where you have to use your laptop on your lap?

Enter the SYB Laptop Pad.

Designed using the same SaferBody™ technology, the SYB laptop pad sits between your laptop and your lap, deflecting EMFs that come from your laptop away from your body.

SYB Poster Frame Liner: The Best EMF Protection for Your Home

Besides your gadgets, there are EMF sources that are beyond your control. For example, your neighbor’s WiFi router mounted directly behind your wall, or smart meters that utility companies are forcing on people.

The SYB Poster Frame Liner is designed to protect you from these sources.

SYB EMF & 5G Protection Poster Frame Liner

Just put it in a frame and hang it on the wall where you want protection. For example, on a wall directly opposite the smart meter or your neighbor’s WiFi router.

The additional benefit of the SYB Poster Frame Liner is that, because you can use your own art or photographs, it looks great, too!

EMF Protection Clothing

Besides EMF protection products to use with devices, we also make EMF protection apparel and EMF protection products for babies

If you would like to protect your brain, neck, or thyroid, our SYB Bandana is a great option.

SYB EMF Protection Bandana

It’s made from a luxurious blend of silver and silk, and provides outstanding EMF protection.

You can use it just like a normal bandana – wrapped around your head, or like a scarf around your neck – to protect these important and sensitive body parts against the damage from EMF radiation.

Similarly, our SYB Baby Blanket and SYB Baby Beanie provide effective EMF protection for your precious child, even against the sources of EMF outside of your control like electrosmog in the environment.

As many health risks as adults face from EMF radiation, babies are at even greater risk from EMF.

Just wrap your baby in the blanket to protect his or her body (it also works great for pregnant women, to protect both mother and the fetus while in utero).

What Makes EMF Protection Products from SYB Effective?

Our SYB products use EMF shielding – a technology that has existed for almost two centuries, since the creation of the Faraday cage.

On top of that, all of our products have been tested in independent laboratories.

We believe in full transparency, and we’ve taken several steps to ensure this is the case with our products.  

We’ve posted videos of our products being tested for shielding effectiveness with several common EMF meters.

In fact, we take our product claims so seriously, that we have a whole hub of EMF testing content posted so you can learn more about how we test, and how you can test for yourself.

And of course, you can read the hundreds of reviews of our EMF protection for cell phones and other anti-radiation products to see for yourself how satisfied our customers are.

Final Thoughts

The best EMF protection is free and will always remain as such. By making simple changes in your habits, you can significantly reduce your EMF exposure, thereby protecting yourself from being subjected to the risks that tag along.

And in situations where you can’t follow the two key rules of EMF protection, there are EMF protection products that can come to your rescue.

So, you see, it’s not that hard to protect yourself and your loved ones from EMF, even in this EMF-polluted environment. You just need to make this a priority in your life.

If you have any further questions or concerns that you’d like to talk about, you can always reach out to us. We read and answer every question.
