We all have a feeling that it’s not good for our health, but all hang on to the fact that ‘nothing has been proven’. Radiation. The one we are getting from the increasing amounts of cell phone towers outside our homes. The one you have plugged into your own wall and that is everywhere you go, the WIFI, And, of course, the one we are holding several hours a day, close to our skin, the mobile phone. Orgayana has interviewed and filmed two people, Alaka Skinner and Max Chua, who will tell you, why they believe protecting ourselves from radiation is so important – and how you do it!
In 2011, “radio frequency electromagnetic radiation” was classified as a possible link to a type of brain cancer by the World Health Organisation. 7 years later, we are yet to find out, whether more data is in fact there and whether we are experiencing a muzzle on facts, like the one we now know from the tobacco and asbestos industry. It could also just be, that measuring the possible damage from radiation, is still too difficult at this stage?
Whatever the case, Alaka Skinner is not prepared to wait for the final proof. She has taken action herself and is in the process of creating a safe environment without radiation in her own home. Orgayana had a chat with her about why, what and what cutting out radiation has done for her:

Singapore radiation specialist, Max Chua was the one that confirmed Alaka Skinner’s suspicion to whether the cellphone towers outside her home, could have a hazardous effect. Max Chua is the founder of the company, Choizya, that provides solutions to detect and protect against excessive radiation emitted from wireless devices. In this video, Max take us through Alaka’s house, to explain how you measure radiation and to give you tips on how to check and avoid radiation in your home, workplace and on the go.

Max’s tips on how to avoid radiation:
EXTERNAL RADIATION:
– If your house is measured to have high radiation from cellphone towers, you can use shielding fabric as curtains or as a canopy on your windows. This fabric will more or less block the hazardous radiation from coming into your home.
– If your terrasse if facing cellphone towers, you might want to consider spending less time there and/or find alternatives.
INTERNAL RADIATION:
– WIFI: There are a lot of possibilities on how you can cable up your internet to avoid or limit WIFI in your house. If you find that too difficult, consider whether you need all your routers, or whether you can use a cable in e.g. the office, where it might just be one or two computers who need to be online.
– Microwave ovens: When used, step away from the oven if possible – and perhaps consider whether you can use alternatives.
– Induction cooker: Same applies for induction, step away when possible to avoid the magnetic radiation.
– Mobile phones: See below, and avoid phones, ipads or other electrical devices in your bedroom.
MOBILE PHONES:
– Use earphones as much as possible, not the wireless type.
– WIFI: Turn off whenever possible when not using it
– BLUETOOTH: Turn off whenever possible when not using it
– GPS: Turn off whenever possible when not using it
