Hi, new member of the group!

gill_annie


Hi everyone!
I'm a new member of this group and joined to give and receive support
and advice with regard to EM sensitivity.
I've had chronic fatigue syndrome for 11 years and although initially
I wasn't that bad, over the years with poor management of this
illness (and poor diet eg low protein at one point), I've become
highly sensitive to EM radiation. Even sitting in from of my computer
affects me, though mobile phones are worse.
I'm looking for devices that are of reasonable cost which I can carry
around with me which will help with protection. There are so many
devices out there eg Qlink pendants, Bioflow devices, Bioprotect
cards etc etc. I really don't know where to start and being a non-
science person I find a lot of the science on this subject difficult
to understand. I have just ordered a device specially for my Nokia
phone...it's called a mobile phone protection bag and it's from
Germany. I'll let you know if it helps!
I have also just started a course at university and surrounded by
students with mobile phones and a lot of powerful computers in the
library which is affecting my memory and concentration quite badly,
so if I can find something I can carry around with me that would be
great.
Thanks for reading!
Anne

Welcome!

I've noticed that our membership has increased by 4 members in the
past 4 days... was this list advertised somewhere, or is this just
a coincidence?

There *are* a lot of devices, and it seems that nobody has the
same reaction to any of them. So something that may work
for one person may not work for another.

For me, the devices which have worked the best don't seem
to have any "science" behind them at all. So I wouldn't
worry too much about trying to understand how they work!

For me, I'm currently using Springlife Polarizers from
Bioharmonics.com, and a power strip from QuantumProducts.com,
plus experimenting with a new (to me) items from LightHealing.com.

These are all helpful to me, and combined with diet and supplements
allow me to not have any problems with being on the computer all
day.

Thanks for your reply Marc!
I sent a message to Lindat on the Bioharmonics forum and she said
that NO device would help protect against EM radiation, except a
Bioenergy system and pointed me to an article about mercury and the
Slimline Polarisers you mentioned. How do I know if she is not just
trying to sell me something. That makes me sound very cynical but how
as a layperson would I know? These devices are expensive, do you get
refunds if they don't work? You mention 2 devices and say you might
get a third....does this mean the other two don't completely work?
Buying 3 devices is too expensive for someone like me who is just a
part-time student.
Which is the best out of all the devices you use?
Thanks ever so much!

Well, that is a possibility... although after having purchased and
tried dozens of different EMF protection devices, I must say that
for me, her polarizers are some of the best protective products
I've found. That said, there are people on this who have purchased
them and did NOT experience the same benefits that I did (although
it sounds like a couple people did, so people's results vary).

I don't know what Bioharmonics policies are regarding refunds.
Anyone here tried to return a polarizer to them?

> You mention 2 devices and say you might get a third....does this
> mean the other two don't completely work?

I have not yet found one device that can serve as complete protection
against everything for me. However, I have noticed that there are
some devices which are so strong that I cannot stand wearing them
for long, because of the adverse reaction I have to them. I have
a theory that if I could build up my tolerance to these items (and
go through the detox that they provoke while wearing them), that
they *might* be strong enough. One such devices is the "personal
rejuvenizer pendant" from LightHealing.com (which *does* state
quite clearly that it has a money back guarantee). I get terrible
muscle pains (including disturbing pains in my chest) if I wear
this too long, so at the moment I'm merely experimenting with
their much less expensive "cell phone rejuvenizer", which also
has an adverse effect on me, but not quite as bad.

> Which is the best out of all the devices you use?

The device that I find myself using the most is the Springlife
"OM pendant". I find the Slimline model to be too strong for
me to tolerate for long periods, but I can use the OM pendant
for 24 hours a day (although I had to limit its use during
the first few weeks). However, I have NOT found this to
be all that helpful for LCD flat screen monitors, which I am
particularly sensitive, so I have simply stayed with using
CRT monitors, which I find easier to tolerate.

Oh, and one more thing -- someone else here on this list has
tried this pendant and apparantley has nothing but good
things to say about it, so like I said, everyone's reaction
is different!

Thanks again for your messages Marc!
I'm fairly sensitive myself and over-reacted to a quartx crystal once
and also a Raditech (for geopathic stress), so had to have it on half
strength as I felt really wired and couldn't sleep. I suspect I might
find the Slimline polariser too strong like yourself so may opt for
the pendant. My monitor isn't too strong, it's mobile phones and
also the computers at my university library which affect me most.
Just bought some extra anti-oxidants and a good liver supplement to
help aswell.
Lindat says that some of these things cause anti-energy or
something...whereas the polarisers work in a different way. I've no
idea what she means!! Also she suggests that the polarisers help
increase resistance to mercury.....this is something I also have to
be aware of....do you know if this is true? It's all a bit of a
minefield really!

Thanks again, really appreciate your help :) Hope your health
continues to improve :)
Cheers
Anne

Yes, I get all agitated and jittery from quartz crystals, so they
don't work for me.

I've had that problem in the past from not only EMF devices, but also
certain supplements (Modifilan) and foods (chia seeds). I think (but
am not sure) that this is an effect of radiation detox, so in theory
it should be good for you, as long as you can control your exposure.
I've never tried a Raditech myself, as I live in the USA, and I
*think* Raditech is for 220v/50hz.

> My monitor isn't too strong, it's mobile phones

I don't have a lot of experience with mobile phones myself, although
I was using one extensively over a weekend a few months ago and had
no problems with it, but I had an Aulterra sticker on the cellphone
and a Springlife OM pendant in my pants pocket the whole time.
I remember in the past, cell phones gave me a sharp pain in my head.

She uses the phrases "bioenergy" and "anti-bioenergy", because she
doesn't want to use standard health terminology that may put her
at risk with government regulators. Basically, I think she means
that polarizers encourage the body to heal itself while other
products encourage your body to stay unhealthy. Unfortunately,
some of these healing products put me into such a severe case
of rapid detoxification that my liver & bladder can't handle it!
So I've been alternating between the healing polarizers and the
"un-healing" quantum products, which allow my body to take a
break from detoxification.

> Also she suggests that the polarisers help increase resistance

The polarizers seem to help me better tolerate all sorts of
things, e.g. air pollution. So certainly it could also help
with mercury, but don't expect any magic cure from mercury
poisoning. At best, your body will be able to detoxify itself
from mercury better than before, but it could still take years
to get your mercury levels down to an acceptable level if you
are seriously poisoned.

Re: Hi, new member of the group!

gill_annie

Thanks again Marc :)

Yes I believe the reaction to the raditech was withdrawal from
geopathic stress symptoms.....the company advised to put your feet on
the raditech to ease the symptoms which did help.

At the end of the day though I suppose it's about strengthening
liver, kidneys and colon so they can deal with the toxins. This is
something else I'm working on. Recently I did a kidney cleanse and it
increased my energy a lot (was told it probably cleared out some
metals too). I wonder if liver and kidney cleansing would help you?
I followed Andreas' Moritz kidney cleanse as it's fairly gentle,
though you might still get headaches etc and he advises a low or no
protein diet (no animal protein that is). I followed that diet during
the cleanse but not vegetarian normally. You're also advised to do
home enemas or have colonic irrigation.

> So I've been alternating between the healing polarizers and the

That sounds a bit complicated though I know what you mean....hope
it's working for you :)
Think I will buy a pendant...will let you know how I get on!

Thanks so much for all your info and support :)

Hi Everyone,

I sent an email directly to Anne but I don't know if she received it
as I haven't heard anything. There were a couple of points I wanted
to make and Marc has provided an opportunity.

I came across a pendant (a bioguard)that took away the effects I was
having from mobile phone both my own and other peoples and from
working on computers as well as other things that were affecting me
through EMF I was so impressed I joined the company and now sell them
because I know they work for me. I don't see anything wrong in
letting people know that there are some solutions to our problems or
some way of easing the efects of noxious things in our environment. I
would imagine most people selling products for relief of symptoms
feel the same way, if they have experienced the problems.

I give a 100% refund after a three month trial if the purchaser
doesn't feel better, I think all outlets selling devices to help with
pain relief should do the same, I also sell magnatherapy products and
they come with a similar guarantee.

This is one of the reasons why I give a full refund, lord knows life
is expensive enough as it is without trying a range of products and
finding things either worse or no improvement.

We are a small company but our success rate with the biophone and
bioguard is very good,(see file I posted on Esens re tests of
Biophone, as it is with our magnatherapy products for people and
animals. We are not very well known certainly not as well known as
the springlife products but I think we offer a range that meets many
peoples needs. Also there is a discount for esens members on
www.magnatech.ik.com if you go on to the symshop and click on the
esens section.
I am not embarrassed to wave the flag for my product because it has
helped me, not saying anything is like me having some sort of
painkiller and you are in pain but I don't tell you about it. I hope
I have not offended any of the group by posting my views.

Hi, new member of the group!

Andrew McAfee
Hey guys,
My name is Andrew McAfee and I live in North Carolina, USA. I too
checked onto this list a week and ago didn't receive any responses so I
am sending another one to make sure that my connection is working.
I have enjoyed the many product suggestions and research put out on the
list by the various members. I am glad to know that I am not alone in
my condition.
I would like to hear back from everyone to get an idea of how many
people on are on this list. I would especially like to hear back from
those that are trying to get rid of cell phones at their work place. I
am currently in a campaign to get my work place cell phone free and
would like some suggestions on methods that have worked for you.
Thanks,
Andrew

I think that would be a difficult task, as some people can't seem
to live without their cell phones, or their pagers, etc. I see this
list as more of a way for ES folks to find ways to tolerate the environment
around them, rather than trying to make others change their lifestyles.

Marc,
Thank you for the quick reply. I am glad to hear there are 94 people on
the list and I think you're right, I don't need to hear from all of
them.
As far as the cell phone issue at work, do you have a problem with me
asking if anyone else has had that issue?

I don't have a problem with the question, or it being answered.
I just think a "self-defense" approach is a more practical solution.

Re: Hi, new member of the group!

I totally agree that taking care of myself is the only thing that I
have control over anyway. When someone has a cell phone on nearby it
makes a big difference in my performance and my job is compromised. So
as a survival level action, I think it is helpful to take some action
externally to take care of myself. I have talked with many of my
colleagues and they are supportive of my request. There are still those
that I don't have access to that still effect me and in that area, I am
still looking for a way to share my information.
I believe, if awareness was raised, it would be a no brainer.
Information is key. If I choose to say anything nothing, the learning
curve would be slow.
Why should I suffer silently? I spent between $500-1000 a month on
health treatments, therapies, dietary supplements, gadgets, books, etc.
Why should I waste all of this hard earned energy and health benefit?
Yes, I choose to speak up to those that don't know about their actions
and how it effects me.
And, thank you pointing out the purpose of this list. I understand that
this list is designed as a "support" list and not a political list or
an action list.
I do think that it can be a great resource for all of us in every
aspect of our healing and consciousness raising efforts. We all can
benefit.
gratefully,
Andrew
