This week we will take a dive into the world of invisible light and its impact on our health. And I'm not talking about infrared light, the wavelength we associate with red light therapy that has positive health benefits; but, rather, the other invisible light that makes up over 99% of the electromagnetic spectrum. In his book, The Invisible Rainbow: A History of Electricity and Life, Arthur Firstenberg chronicles the impact that the evolution of electricity, radiation and non-native electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs) has had on the health of humans and animals since its inception in the late 19th century.
This well-written and strongly-cited book by Firstenberg makes a very strong case that the vast majority of health maladies and diseases of the last couple of centuries are actually directly tied to electricity and the iterations of that technology (i.e., the electrical power grid, radio waves, telecommunication, wireless technology, advancements from 3G to 4G to 5G, etc.) versus the paradigm, which we are all too familiar with, of exercise and diet.
This book has completely transformed my perception of electricity, the advancement of any technology and its indisputable negative impact on our health. In a nutshell, any human-made, non-native EMF causes metabolic disease, which is tantamount to saying it causes mitochondrial dysfunction. Based on the information presented in the book, provided you are a health conscious individual, you quickly realize you need to start prioritizing EMF-mitigating tactics over diet/exercise tactics. I am not saying you need to get rid of one to include the other, but rather that you can't out-exercise or out-diet/out-supplement dysfunctional mitochondria; you need a strong motor (i.e. mitochondria) before you can get the benefits from the fuel (i.e. diet and exercise).
In this episode, I cover one of the more profound chapters, Irritable Heart, in the sense that it clearly demonstrates the impact of electrical technology through various eras and how it has been a silent killer for countless cardiac conditions. In my opinion, 5G is further perpetuating and accelerating the issues outlined in this chapter. I hope you find this information as profound and paradigm-shifting as I do — knowledge is truly power. As always, light up your health (with EMFs from the earth/nature and sunlight)!
