What to Know About EMF/EMFR and Infrared Heat

  • EMF stands for electromagnetic frequency, the R in EMFR stands for radiation, both acronyms refer to the same thing

    The electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) represents all frequencies of electromagnetic energy. It ranges from extremely long wavelengths (extremely low-frequency exposures such as those from power lines) to extremely short wavelengths (x-rays and gamma rays) and includes both non-ionizing and ionizing radiation. (WHO). 
                                                             
  • Heating Greens infrared radiant heaters, fall into the non-ionizing spectrum of EMF, which are safe.     

    Unlike high-energy (ionizing) radiation, EMFs in the non-ionizing part of the electromagnetic spectrum cannot damage DNA or cells. In addition to infrared radiant heat, non-ionizing EMF includes TV broadcast, mobile phones, Wi-Fi, remote controls, radio, and computers. (Healthline)
                                              
  • The unit of measurement mG (standing for milligauss) identifies magnetic field strength.
