What is meant by Dirty Electricity?

Dirty Electricity is a fast-growing form of electromagnetic pollution that radiates from the electrical wiring in homes and other buildings. It has been associated with issues such as trouble sleeping, difficulty focusing, memory problems, anxiety, irritability and a host of other health concerns including cancer.

Dirty electricity levels are intensifying due to widespread use of digital devices, battery chargers, LED and CFL lighting, high efficiency appliances, solar power systems, and more. These technologies and many others must modify or convert electricity in different ways to function properly. In doing so, they create small electrical surges and high frequency voltage spikes. This unwanted electrical noise (“trash”) travels along circuit wiring and radiates invisibly into the surrounding environment, where it can interact with our bodies and affect health.

What are the symptoms of Dirty Electricity?

Dirty Electricity is a fast-emerging form of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) that is linked with sleep issues, poor attention, memory, anxiety, irritability and a host of other chronic symptoms. Until now, few have heard of this environmental pollutant. Yet dirty electricity radiates from electrical circuits into almost every home and building in the U.S. In scientific papers, dirty electricity has been associated with multiple symptoms and chronic conditions. See this list of biological and health effects associated with dirty electricity and other EMF pollution.

 

  • DNA damage
  • Oxidative stress
  • Mitochondrial dysfunction
  • Inflammation
  • Reduced melatonin production
  • Leaky blood brain barrier
  • Cancer
  • Heart problems (palpitations, arrhythmias, chest pain/pressure, cardiomyopathy, sudden cardiac death)
  • Diabetes
  • Alzheimer’s, dementia, and memory loss
  • ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease)
  • Autism
  • ADD/ADHD
  • Infertility
  • Insomnia and other sleep problems
  • Chronic fatigue
  • Mental confusion – brain fog
  • Headaches and migraines
  • Muscle and joint pain, including fibromyalgia
  • Tinnitus (ringing in the ears)
  • Burning, tingling, and pricking sensations
  • Dizziness, vertigo, and nausea
  • Asthma and allergy symptoms
  • Mood issues (restlessness, irritability)

How do you fix Dirty Electricity?

One solution is to unplug dirty electricity devices from your circuits, including computers, battery chargers, HDTVs, game consoles, LEDs and compact fluorescent lighting. You could also disable your solar panels. A better solution is to simply purchase and plug-in dirty electricity filters. These magic devices filter out unwanted electrical energy that radiates into the living environment.

How to Block Dirty Electricity

Blocking any EMFs can be tricky, as electrical fields can reflect unpredictably and even intensify unless reduced professionally. The best solution is to install UL-approved EMI filters. These are designed to remove unwanted frequencies (dirty electricity) safely with a system of capacitors and electrical grounding strategies. Once the unwanted frequencies are reduced, potentially harmful EMI radiation can be mitigated successfully.
