Thanks for producing the website, Joy. I hope it will be a great help to
many.
Thank you, Eli. Not everyone will be as receptive to my website as you
are, unfortunately. The problem with the website is that it is not
based upon rigorous scientific research. Parts of the website, like
the page on EMF protection devices, will be a real turn-off for some
people because of this.
However, true scientific research is almost always based on collating
experimental observations and searching for an explanation. So a case
history like yours is valid input and good science. Even more so if you are
able to add other case histories as you suggest. There are very few
scientific fields where the theory alone is able to predict results -
physics, maths and computer science predominantly. In others, including
biology, medical science, materials and many aspects of engineering, the
theory has always developed from the experimental observations, not vice
versa.
I very much like the way in which you are completely honest about your
background and put careful caveats on what you are saying. This makes it
far more credible and helpful. Also your avoidance of "politicisation" is
good, this stops people thinking "oh it's just a pressure group" which
happens with at least one other ES website.
The only major extra point I would make is that good diet, EMF avoidance and
detox may not be enough for a significant proportion of people. Why has
their immune system run down in the first place? For my wife Sue, she ate a
superb diet, had detoxed and yet things kept getting worse. Not till
specialised tests had been done did we find that the underlying factors were
specific (partly hereditary) and that key liver chemicals were missing and
needed to be specifically restored to make things better - and because of
leaky gut problems, oral supplements could not achieve this, only injections
or intravenous infusions. One day I will get round to writing up Sue's case
history in full as I keep seeming to repeat bits of it in various forms in
so many places!
Best wishes, Ian

Thank you, Eli. Not everyone will be as receptive to my website as you
are, unfortunately. The problem with the website is that it is not
based upon rigorous scientific research. Parts of the website, like
the page on EMF protection devices, will be a real turn-off for some
people because of this.
The website is based upon my experience and some good common sense,
for the most part. If a website like mine was available a few years
ago, I would have been spared a lot of suffering; what seems to me
like common sense now was a mystery to me when I was extremely ill
from electrical sensitivity.
I am surprised that nobody else has created a website with information
like mine has, but that may be because the causes of and cures for
electrical sensitivity really is a mystery to most people with the
illness and the health professionals who have ES sufferers as patients.
I am "going out on a limb" with my website because of the
"unscientific" claims that I make (there as yet are none or few people
who have freed themselves from ES by following a program similar to
the one I present), but my answer to that is: "try it and see." We
humans are just learning about electrical sensitivity, and I present
my website as a useful starting point for finding a cure for the
illness. I do believe I have discovered some basic truths about ES,
and the next step is for some brilliant scientists to apply my ideas
in a rigorously scientific way to determine if there is empirical
truth to my claims.
However, my website is for people with electrical sensitivity, not
scientists. It would be plain stupid to wait for scientific proof of
the causes and cures for ES if people can benefit right now from what
I have learned. I think that many people with ES will agree that the
healing program I present is common sense and is worth trying. There
is little to lose by trying, and we will all learn from each other's
experience. There is going to be a Success Stories page on my website
for this purpose.
