At-Risk Group
At risk of rehashing, it's possible that the following people and lifestyles are most at risk:
- People who are over-exposed to hours of close-up exposure to any lights such as computer LCD/CRT, TV, fluorescents, bright lights, cellphones (containing LED panels) etc. For example, a job optical scanning as cashier, or a job as a programmer may be risky. Even if the light is dimmed or covered, it does not always help! After all, don't you prefer sleeping in darkness even when your eyelids are shut? But this doesn't mean that brightness & proximity aren't factors as well... Avoid working in offices with low hanging unshielded fluorescents; also avoid assembling toxic computer components without gloves for protection from epoxies; also, maybe soldiers exposed to infrared night goggles are at risk as well; even sewing machines have lights, so long-term sewing may also cause body degradation... Also computer mouse causes electrosensitivity in many people after a while
- Elderly people, and genetically predisposed people, who are more dehydrated (with less extracellular water) may be more vulnerable to heating/drying effect of computer radiation and chemicals. Note that hormonal changes are also related to increasing sensitivities.
- People toxified by and exposed to heavy metals, bacteria, viruses, chemicals, unhealthy environment, bad food. For example, a neuro practitioner explained that mercury affected my Pineal gland, which causes body rhythms such as sleep to be affected as well as causing a myriad of other sensitivities, including EMF/light sensitivity.
- People who are genetically predisposed to poor detoxification mechanisms. For example, poor sweating ability, toxic liver, and chronic constipation won't eliminate toxins efficiently.
- Ethnic factor? For example, some Orientals sweat less than Occidentals. Also, people with large pupils in eyes and/or translucent irises containing low melanin, and fair skin containing low melanin may be more photosensitive, and ditto for other vulnerable body parts. For example, many Scandinavians are fair-skinned and blue-eyed. Might that be why there's a high percentage among them who have fibromyalgic and computer sensitivities? Perhaps... It bears investigation.
- People who practice Kundalini without proper precautions have been known to acquire symptoms similar to those with electrosensitivity. Note that this practice involves neural connections, causing a twinge to sometimes be felt down the spine, whereupon excruciating widespread pain is triggered. I'm curious whether there are other electrosensitives (or Kundalini victims) who, like myself, are able to voluntarily induce a twinge down one's spine, by merely thinking about it!
- Ingesting heating/drying stuff such as scalding soup, citrus, spices, sulphuric onion/garlic, acids, caffeine, salts, alcohol, perfume, Lysol, aerosols while exposed to bright lights, toxic dust and chemicals, is like adding fuel to the fire. Also phenols of red grapes/garlic might cause reactions & may be photosensitive (react to light, EMFs, hot drinks, etc.) Note that computer monitors (and other high-tech gadgets) can contain bisphenols which are photosensitizing! On the other hand, ingesting cooling/moisturizing stuff such as water, ozonation, oxygenation, cherry yogurt, low-fat peach ice cream, low-fat berry-vanilla ice-cream/sorbet, demulcent herbals, humectant sweeteners such as glycerine mixed into berry tea, honey-chamomile tea, mallow-licorice tea, is sorta like banking the fire...
- Caution: Those of you who supplement with silica, note that upon supplementing with liquid silica to elasticize skin and nails I overdid it, resulting in radio-frequency sensitivity causing my heart and head to pound when listening to radio. Also, my friend who supplemented with silica developed heart palps (not just me). It may be due to its property of boosting body electricity, enhancing cell to cell communication. The moral? Moderation is the key. Hey, too much oxygen can also kill!
