Healthy Interior Design
Healthy Homes. Healthy People. Healthy Earth.
An interior designer's reflections on an eco-conscious lifestyle.

Electromagnetic fields (EMF) produced by our computers, televisions, cell phones, wireless networks, microwave ovens and other electronics have a questionable influence on human health. It is said they might generate free radicals that can be toxic to your brain and promote loss of memory and dementia. Research shows higher rates of Alzheimer’s in people exposed to EMFs.

To minimize your exposure to electromagnetic radiation (EMR):

  • move your alarm clock at least 3 feet from your head while sleeping, or use a battery-powered one (6 feet is the recommended distance from all electronic devices during sleep)
  • avoid water beds, electric blankets, and metal bed frames, which attract electromagnetic frequencies
  • while choosing a mattress, opt for foam over metal-coiled with box-spring
  • keep a low-EMR bedroom: minimize TV and computer use in this room, sit and sleep as far back from them as possible; replace cordless and WiFi items with wired, corded lines
  • when using an electric cooktop, work on back burners instead of the front if possible
