Show notes
[include file=get-in-itunes.html] Dr. Emil DeToffol joined us today in yet another fascinating show. Do you own a cell phone or mobile phone? Do you have a laptop computer or a tablet like an iPad or Kindle? Do you work on or around computer technology? Do you live near cell phone towers or antennas or use wireless routers? Do you ride in cars, trains or airplanes? Do you use a blender, a vacuum cleaner, a hairdryer or other electronic appliances around the house? If you’ve answered yes to any of these questions than you’re putting yourself at risk to EMF radiation. Today we had Dr. Emil DeToffol on from a great company called LessEMF.com to discuss how these frequencies are affecting our biology, physiology, our hormones and our overall health. You’d be suprised at how harmful these devices can be. The instances of autism, brain cancers and other blood disorders are on the rise and many top level people think it’s related if not caused by the used of these technological devices. Personally I don’t own a cell phone and never have actually. I don’t know how I’ve managed to get away with not owning one all of these years. With that said, I have no plans of getting one either. My mom, dad and brother have never even owned a cell phone and for some weird reason I take a lot of pride in that. But with that said I do work near computers all day long and so the idea of positive ionizing radiation is really an issue I have to learn more about and figure out some strategies for protection. We discuss square wave vs sign wave technology, cell towers, cell antennas and how they’re affecting our health and so much more. It’s really a fascinating show. I plan on buying some of the EMF meters below and start doing some testing around our place and especially in our studio and bedroom to see how much radiation we’re being exposed to. Once we determine what type of radiation we’re are being exposed to and where it’s coming from, we’ll put together a plan to significantly decrease our exposure. What I like about LessEMF is that not only do they have the meters so you can accurately test all 3 types of radiation (electric, magnetic and radio frequencies) but they also sell all kinds of products to shield yourself from these harmful frequencies. If you know of anybody that uses cell phones or electronic devices and you’re concerned about cancer, diabetes or other health issues for them (and for yourself!) please pass this show on to them so they can learn everything that T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon and other companies are never going to tell you. This is a fascinating interview with Emil DeToffol. Please pass this show on to your friends via Facebook using the links above if you would. More people need to know this information because just about everybody on the planet is glued to their smartphones and other devices these days. Kate and I would be so grateful if you’d consider sharing this show with your friends! – Get Notified: [ois skin=”Show Page2″] – Please Subscribe: Subscribe To Our Radio Show For Updates! – Other Shows: [include file=show-links.html] | All Shows With This Guest – Show Date: Monday 11/11/2013 – Show Guest: Dr. Emil DeToffol – Guest Info: A native of New York State, Emil DeToffol earned a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Chemistry from SUNY at Stony Brook in 1979 and Doctorate of Dental Surgery from SUNY at Buffalo in 1983. Read More… After retiring from the practice of dentistry, and volunteering at the Option Institute in Sheffield MA (a resource for families with Autism), Dr. DeToffol created Less EMF Inc. in 1996 as way to apply his engineering and health science background to help the growing population of individuals concerned about the adverse effects of electromagnetic field radiation. Less EMF Inc. now offers over 300 EMF safety products from around the world including meters, shielding, and books on the topic. “In the last generation, man-made electromagnetic field pollution of our environment has escalated to the point where effects on our delicate biological systems are a certainty. This has been well documented in the scientific literature, but not well publicized,” says Dr. DeToffol. “Under some circumstances, a subset of the population can actually become sensitized to EMF exposure. Neurological symptoms, difficulty sleeping, heart palpitations, ringing in the ears, and skin rashes are the most common effects we hear about. For these individuals, living and working in a typical electromagnetically polluted space becomes difficult or impossible. There is almost no where left to hide.” Media appearances have included radio (Shadowlands with Art Bell), television (John Stossel special on 20/20), and print (Investor’s Business Daily). Dr. DeToffol currently lives in Albany NY with his wife and daughter. He enjoys woodworking, sailing, and traveling in his spare time. – Topic: Electromagnetic Field Radiation, cell phones, iPads, laptops, radiation – Guest Website(s): http://www.lessemf.com (Guest Social Links Below.

I took Maggie for a walk this morning down by the beach, did my sauna, did my rebounding—just a beautiful, sunny day. So hopefully you’re having a great day wherever you are. Looking at our upcoming show schedule, we have lots of great guests, as we always tend to have. We have Daniel Vitalis coming up soon and he’s going to be talking about hormone health. We’ve had quite a few questions come in recently, people asking about their hormones, especially women going through menopause and men with their hormones, so it’s a big issue. We’ll be talking to Daniel Vitalis about that. And then we’ve got Dr. Morton Walker. I’m not sure if you’ve heard about him. He’s a prolific author and he’ll be talking to us about cancer—how to prevent cancer naturally, how to heal from cancer—lots of great stuff. He’s been around the health field and industry for so many years. Then we’ve got Vani Hari from FoodBabe.com. That should be a great show. We’ll be talking about different ingredients that people buy at the store and how that relates to our health and what the chemicals are and all that good stuff, so that’ll be a great show. And then today we’ve got Emil DeToffol from LessEMF.com. He is a native of New York state. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Chemistry from SUNY at Stoneybrook in 1979 and a Doctorate of Dental Surgery from SUNY at Buffalo in 1983. He’s joining us live today from Buffalo, New York. So thank you so much, Emil, for being on the show today. Emil: Hi, Justin. It’s great to be here. Justin: Excellent. So how’s the weather in New York today? Emil: We’re having a great day here. It might reach 50 and partly sunny. We’re happy about that for this time of year. Justin: So you went to dental school. Starting off you got your Bachelor of Science in Engineering Chemistry and then after that, you went to dental school and got your Doctorate doing dental surgery in ’83. Did you practice after that? Emil: Yes, I did. I practiced near Buffalo, New York for 11 years with my wife, actually, who is a dentist as well. And we enjoyed it very much. And then after that time, we moved to the Albany area, mainly to be closer to family and get a change of career. This is about as big of change of career as I could imagine. It’s very different, but it suits me well and I’m using both the Engineering part of my education and the medical part. So I really like working with EMF—electromagnetic field—issues, helping people diagnose their EMF issues and helping them sort through a variety of solutions that are available. Justin: Yeah, that’s quite a change. Can you speak up just a little bit? It’s a little bit low on our end here. Emil: I will try. Justin: Excellent. Thank you, Emil. So how did you make the transition? Did you guys both do that—your wife and yourself? Emil: No, my wife is not involved in the business. She is busy taking care of our now 13-year-old child and she’s got her hands full with that. But I made the transition at the time because I was interested in this field, even since childhood, I’d say. I can remember as a child asking my dad how the music got into the radio in the car as we were driving along and he was explaining about the waves in the air shaking the electrons in the antenna and amplifying it in the radio to make the sound come out. And it occurred to me, even at a young age, that if it’s doing that to the electrons in the antenna, it must be doing that to the electrons in our bodies. And ever since then, I’ve had sort of a fascination/concern about the effects of electromagnetic fields on our bodies and on our environment. So then in 1996, when I was trying to decide what I was going to do next, I thought I would go into this field and found that there really wasn’t much of anything available at that time—not in terms of information, not in terms of products. And so I decided I would make it available. And so we set about creating LessEMF to make information about EMFs, to make meters and other ways of measuring or detecting EMFs, and of course, to provide a variety of solutions for how to reduce, how to shield, how to eliminate EMF exposure in our environment, whether it’s at home or at work or school or in our cars and so on. So over the years—now we’re starting our 18th year here—we’ve increased our product line; there are probably over 300 different products we have, all related to EMF safety, and we’re constantly on the look-out for new things, new ways to do things. To be honest, our customers often give us great ideas on how to approach a problem and we love passing that information on to others as we go. Justin: Interesting. Yeah, I did a search before the show started on AntennaSearch.com. You probably know that website. Emil: I do. Justin: AntennaSearch.com. And I found that near us there are 31 towers and 192 antennas within four miles of where I am. Emil: It’s an amazing statistic, isn’t it? I would encourage your readers to go to that site. It’s fabulous. You type in your address and it will tell you exactly how many radiating sources, or at least registered radiating sources there are in your immediate community. It doesn’t tell you though that you might have Wi-Fi in your own home or a microwave oven or a cell phone or some other device in your own home or maybe even in your own hand that might be giving you as much or more radiation. But still, it will tell you about how many towers. And it’s easily in the dozens to hundreds in any urban or suburban area. We’ve checked in many different locations and it’s shocking. It’s shocking how we’ve electrified our environment. Justin: Yeah, it’s almost impossible to get away from these things entirely, isn’t it? Emil: Well, it is. There is a new ad out for… it might be for Verizon… where they’re bragging. They’re showing a map of the United States that’s almost fully covered with dots of their cell phone coverage and they’re mocking how their competitors have much less coverage. Justin: Isn’t that wild? Emil: Yeah. I mean of course people want coverage, you know? People are clamoring and complaining when they don’t get coverage, even in the most remote areas. But at the same time, we have to ask ourselves “Is that really what we want? Is that really what we need?” Justin: Right. I would like to live in a place where there is absolutely no coverage. I don’t have a cell phone, but where there is no cell reception at all—I’m sure that would be a little bit healthier, wouldn’t it? Emil: I’m sure it would. I’m sure it would. Justin: So how far do th…
