Most people, even most doctors, have no clue about how heavy metals can increase your sensitivity to electromagnetic fields from everyday sources (like cell phones, Wi-Fi, dirty electricity etc.) to create a whole load of symptoms (brain fog, headaches, fatigue,
tingling/prickly skin, ringing in the years, muscle twitching and spasms etc. etc.)
Here are just some of the ways heavy metals may be conspiring with EMF exposures to do this in your life:
Heavy metals
conduct electricity—like mercury, lead, cadmium, and aluminum are electrically conductive. When they accumulate in your tissues (which is what they do, especially your nervous system), they act like tiny “antennas” for EMFs.
Bioaccumulation in nervous tissue—heavy metals have an affinity for the brain and nerves (e.g.,
mercury crosses the blood-brain barrier). This makes your nervous system more excitable and reactive to EMF exposures.
Disruption of calcium signaling—heavy metals (like lead and mercury) disrupt ion channels in cell membranes, especially calcium channels. I’ve talked about this MANY times. EMFs already affect calcium channel
activity; combined with heavy metals, the response can be amplified.
Oxidative stress synergy—both EMFs and heavy metals increase oxidative stress.Together, they produce more free radicals, inflaming tissues and sensitizing your nerves.
Damage to myelin and neuronal insulation—heavy metals damage myelin sheaths around nerves. This makes neurons more vulnerable to external EMF influences.
Immune system dysregulation—heavy metals can trigger chronic low-grade inflammation and immune
hyper-reactivity. EMF exposure can worsen these immune responses, leading to heightened sensitivity symptoms (headaches, brain fog, fatigue).
Impaired detoxification pathways—heavy metals block enzymes in the liver and kidneys. This makes your body less able to clear both toxins and oxidative byproducts of EMF exposure, compounding
effects.
Synergistic neurotoxicity—EMFs can enhance the release of heavy metals stored in tissues. This creates a feedback loop where EMF exposure worsens metal toxicity and vice versa.
Unless you have specifically undertaken some sort of heavy metal chelation, it’s not a question of WHETHER heavy metals are impacting your health, it’s a question of HOW MUCH.
If you’re serious about dealing with EMFs (or want to avoid becoming EMF hyper sensitive), it’s CRITICAL
that you determine the degree of heavy metal toxicity in your body.
Note: This was a vital part of my EMF journey. Without this, things would have probably been much worse for me. Also a daily detox plan is so important.
Note: But the FIRST step is a heavy metal test. Dr. Myers’ has made her heavy metal test very affordable for my community.
Her non-invasive, at-home test reviews your body for over 30 important metals & minerals (which will help you determine
your electrosensitivity) without needing to leave your home.
Many of those toxic heavy metals are even found in your food and water, meaning your everyday diet and hydration (or lack of it) may be increasing your electrosensitivity.
Taking this test could truly be a game-changer.
