experiencing them frequently and at times, quite severely. She therefore asked
Building Wellness to do an EMF and radio frequency assessment of her home to
determine whether or not these exposures may be responsible for her condition.

High formaldehyde levels in trailers (caravans), mobile homes |
|
An interim report released by the
U.S. Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has found high levels of
formaldehyde in the indoor air of trailers (caravans) and mobile homes supplied
as emergency housing to people displaced by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in
December 2007 and January 2008. Processed wood products used in the
construction of fittings in the trailers/homes were found to be responsible for
the observed formaldehyde levels.

Ambient electromagnetic fields may affect human sperm quality |
|
According to a Microwave News report, a Californian researcher
has found that daily magnetic field exposures of 1.6mG or higher for at
least two-and-a-half hours were associated with significantly poorer semen quality.
Men who were exposed to over 1.6mG for over six hours a day were four times
more likely to have substandard sperm.
