Electrosensitivity symptoms can be eliminated in 60% of people and significantly reduced in the rest – Dr. Brian Clement (ENG) + Note Biblik
"If you ask me what is the most serious problem that man has created, I would say that the first is electropollution, followed by chemicals and heavy metals." Dr. Brian Clement, Hippocrates Health Institute
"When I use my cell, I never put it on my head, I always use the speakerphone, with a 29$ speaker that can also be installed in a car." Dr. Brian Clement, Hippocrates Health Institute

A naturopath who holds a doctorate in nutrition, Brian Clement says he has successfully treated more than 4,000 electrohypersensitive people at the Hippocrates Institute which he heads. Founded in Boston in 1956 by nutritionist Ann Wigmore and now based in Florida, the Institute is one of the world’s most renowned natural health centers. Tens of thousands of people have seen their health improve after adopting its healthy lifestyle program and discovering the virtues of raw food cures (germinations, sprouts and their juices). Here is the fascinating telephone interview he granted us in January 2012.
Version française de cette entrevue
A more preferable and more humane answer would be to clean up our act rather than to have to have all this treatment – which is not available anyway to most people in the world!
Yes, cleaning up our act is key. The clean-up involves reducing and aligning the external environment with the melatonin/cortisol rhythm, something I describe in detail in ‘The Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Workbook’. I wrote it to celebrate my tenth year of living EHS-free!
Essentially it comes down to minimizing wireless signals, electricity and other factors that keep our environmentally sensitive hormones on alert at all the wrong times. Ultimately that disruption reduces healing and heightens sensitivity. So to reduce sensitivity, and speed healing, that interference needs to be cleaned up.
All experts agree that pollutant source removal is the top priority in cleaning the environment. However, since it’s virtually impossible to reduce EMF exposure to zero today and that a growing number (an estimated 3 to 13%) of the population is electrosensitive, I find it useful to know that heavy metal poisoning is suspected to be the main cause of electrosensitivity.
There is so much wrong with Mr. Clement’s responses, I almost do not know where to start. Let’s just take the first paragraph.
1. Electromagnetic therapy does not work. So the very expensive machines Mr. Clement purchased in the 80s were useless. BTW, that they were expensive has no bearing on whether they work. See various authoritative sources cited in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_therapy_(alternative_medicine)
2. “It was easy to link them with EMFs.” No other rigorous scientific or medical body can link any symptom to EMF at levels below safety standards. I would love to know what exhaustive testing is done for the non-specific symptoms (headaches, general pain, dizziness, insomnia, etc) reported by those claiming to be affected by EMF, since the could be as a result of hundreds of other possible conditions?
3. “biofrequency tests” are quack medicine. The concept was invented almost a hundred years ago (see https://www.skepdic.com/vibrationalmedicine.html), and there is no rigorous scientific evidence to support it.
4. “People who are the most electrohypersensitive are universal power conductors.” What is the scientific definition in humans as to their being “universal power conductors”? There is none. It is, however, elementary electrics (that is, laws of physics) that every human on the planet being can conduct electricity, given enough voltage and current. But EMFs at levels below safety standards do not have such an effect. This term means nothing.
5. “Unfortunately, doctors often place them in psychiatric institutions.” People get put into psychiatric institutions because the have psychiatric disorders, and for no other reason.
That is the nonsense in Mr. Clement’s first response alone.
PS Mr. Clement says that Robert O. Becker was twice nominated for the Nobel Prize. He doesn’t specify for which prize, but I will assume he meant Medicine. However, nominations for the prize are kept secret for 50 years, and the only public resource, with information only up to 1951 and available at https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/nomination/database.html , does not list Mr. Becker. I doubt any nomination of which he might have been the subject is yet public, since Becker’s work was in the 1960s and ’70s, and nominations / prizes are not typically made / awarded until years after initial discoveries, when the impact of any ground-breaking work has become apparent.
It’s a pity to see such a scientifically ignorant response. There are hundreds of research papers demonstrating the physiological effects of EMF at levels many orders of magnitude below the ridiculous ‘safety limits’. These limits were created out of thin air, based on nothing.
My advice is to read the science and then share your opinion with others.
Why do demoralizing people always show up to discredit the help that is being given to sick and suffering people with EHS? It is because the industry that is making wads of money from wireless devices is never going to admit their technology harms people. Then they pay shills to show up here to try to divert uninformed readers away from the truth. Shameful. You made yourself look quite foolish Mr.Tricque as you have been corrected for your ignorant comment about Dr. Becker. Why don’t you do something useful and memorable with your life…volunteer at a hospital to spend time with the sick and dying. Maybe you will learn compassion.
While there is evidence emerging linking electromagnetic radiation to the biological symptoms people are having, it is just beginning to be heard and seen by main stream people. Many are suffering from the effects but do not know what is causing it. However, there are some people who, upon exposure, feel ill and have discomfort from the exposures. Denying it does not make it stop. Blaming those who suffer doesn’t make it stop. Assuming a person who gets ill every time they are exposed to the nonioinizing fields doesn’t understand what is happening to them is unsound. People know when they are getting ill and what makes them ill. Now they might not understand why it makes them ill–but boy doe it makes them ill!! Please stop the denial and let’s find a safer way to communicate and a better way to treat those who are suffering rom this.

When exposure to these EMF’s causes severe tangible symptoms it is IMPOSSIBLE for an individual to be “making this up.”
When an individual can alter diet, etc. and will NOT SEE said tangible symptoms no matter which they follow, it CAN NOT be caused then by those conditions.
But when the ONLY thing to change is being exposed to various technologies, THAT IS THE CAUSE. there is no other answer. You are denying what science is – EMPIRICAL based on TESTED DATA.
THIS proves the cause but is IGNORED by ignorant people like you who lack a basic understanding of science.
As it IS NOT the electricity per say but the PROTONS produced by the electromagnetic fields.
Along with heavy metals, as stated in this article, which act like beacons to radio signals,
OF WHICH THESE ARE.
These signals are just outside the MICROWAVE range. Hence why many feel symptoms that are similar to if you were microwaved.
Shows like ” Better call Saul” paint those of us with this condition as the loons, when in fact IMAGINARY MAKE BELIEVE SITUATIONS DO NOT SAY WHETHER OR NOT THIS IS OR IS NOT A REAL CONDITION.
Similar to the excuse “the symptoms could be caused by any number of conditions.”
Yet as previously stated, when ALL OTHER SCENARIOS DO NOT REPRODUCE THE SYMPTOMS OTHER THAN EMF EXPOSURE, that IS the cause of the illness.
Likewise, NO ONE HAS ANY WAY OF KNOWING WHETHER OR NOT THERE ARE IN FACT WIRELESS SIGNALS OR OTHERWISE IN ANY LOCATION EXCEPT WITH A DEVICE THAT TELLS THEM, or IF THEY WERE MADE PHYSICALLY ILL.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to produce psychosomatic symptoms in this case since as stated it is IMPOSSIBLE to know if there are or are not wifi, etc on in any location without a device telling you.
YOU refuse to admit to the facts because admission is an admission of guilt.
In fact above 1 Ghz we are talking about microwaves indeed.
In 2000, the Nordic Council of Ministers in Europe recognized electromagnetic intolerance or “El-allergy”.
among “Conditions with aetiology attributed to environmental factors – mechanisms not yet understood”
“Usually general symptoms (tiredness, nausea, memory- and concentration
difficulties etc.) related to use of TV/PC/data-screens, electrical transformers or
fluorescent lamps. Symptoms disappear in “non-electrical environments”.”

Thank you for your comments.
Here are two confirmations of Dr Becker’s two Nobel nominations in medicine.
First from Upstate University:
https://www.upstate.edu/ortho/research/pdf/research_history.pdf
And from his former colleague Andrew Marino:
&&The report is true.
The first nomination was in January 1978. I saw the nomination form that had been sent to Dr Becker’s nominator by Dr Luft, the chairman of the 1978 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine, and I have in my possession the letter that Dr Becker wrote to the nominator wherein Dr Becker summarized his accomplishments, as requested by the nominator. I also have in my possession both the letter sent to Dr Becker by the 1978 Nobel Committee asking him to nominate one or more candidates for the Prize, and Dr Becker’s reply.
The second nomination occurred shortly after I left Dr Becker’s laboratory in 1980. He told me who had nominated him, and we discussed the information that he would provide to the nominator.
The second nomination particularly pleased Dr Becker because it came years after he had been forced to retire, but indicated to him that his work had not been forgotten. He was the first and greatest EMF warrior. He sought neither power, money, nor fame. What he did seek was to be recognized for what he accomplished. He always scrupulously respected those investigators whose work paved the way for his work and, in turn, he wanted the same kind of respect.&&

Interesting to offer hope. Yet, the problem with heavy metal toxicity is a person’s body has stored it and it is not easy or quick to excrete. Anything that mobilizes the metals into the blood can allow those metals now to get into the brain – precisely because today’s EMF exposure OPENS the blood-brain barrier. Trying to detox could damage and harm the brain even more because of this. (See the work of Allan Frey, Leif Salford, etc).
If the machine mobilizes metals that is risky even taking chlorella, although the seaweed does bind to metals. Some folks who badly wish to detox cannot tolerate chlorella. It may cause extreme brain fog, and if cells store metals the body now has to deal with acute toxicity of metal release.
It is also inconceivable that everyone being harmed by today’s crazy levels of EMF could be helped in time or cured. This would include fetuses, the old, children, people with other conditions. Therefore, spreading the truth about serious biological risks as shown in over 1800 recent studies in the 2012 BioInitiative Reports is crucial. So it recalibrating our standards on RF/MW exposure to protect the public.
I don’t understand the connection to &&heavy metals&& Is it because they conduct or reflect elecromagnetic waves?
A good conductor and reflector of such frequencies is sodium an abundant metal in the body.
See that I am one of those 1% of the world who is an extreme EHS sufferer, and have been suffering this debilitating disorder since the late 1960s, I can at least say that the reason why those sufferers who suffer extremely is because of the metals in their blood and tissue. Many extreme sufferers also suffer from burning mouth syndrome because of the amalgam fillings and metal based dental caps. The RFR becomes an electro motive force cutting through the metals in the fillings and release the metal ions, such as chromium and silver from the amalgam and what other metals there are in the dental caps. This goes into your body. Also, when the dentists removed old amalgam and refill with new amalgam many don’t take any safety precautions at all in regards to the mercury vapours during removal.
Today, the wireless technology has replace asbestos and passive cigarette smoking, which has been banned in our country.
All we can do is get our body back into line with health, and the get the stuff out of our body that is destroying our immune system. We will NEVER removed the non-ionised radiation, because all governments have made sure of that by increasing the safety regulations to the extreme.
All the best to those sufferers.
The double whammy is that chelating metals moves them into blood stream. EMR opens the blood brain barrier. Thus, you move metals into the brain. There is no safe place to chelate. In my area the government is encouraging wireless broadband in rural and forest areas. They will leave no place untouched by cell towers and WiMax. It is a death sentence for some, since shielding is extremely difficult with the new frequencies which are modulated and pulsed TO BE ABLE TO PENETRATE buildings, etc. as much as possible. This is worse than tobacco in that THERE IS NO PLACE TO ESCAPE. To someone getting sick this is pure evil from a blindspot in society, andd the endless drive for &&more access&& to everything everywhere. We just want access to our lives and health.
The gym that has a sauna I used to use will not accomodate me by turning off wifi and limiting cell phones in the locker room area where the sauna is. I was excreting the metals for a few years and feeling better and better. Then wireless exploded. I have lost hope for any kind of normal life. We with EHS are the casualties of the modern age. We are the sacrifices to the wireless god.
Thanks for the feedback. One needs to find a low or zero-EMF site to detox and it’s hard to find these days indeed.
Hi interesting but don’t infrared saunas themselves emit high levels of EMF? Are these not harmful to an EHS sufferer?>
Infrared is heat, not EMFs. All you need to do is have properly wired, low-EMF heating elements. Of course, some people are so intolerant to EMFs that they can’t spend time close to an electric device.
Infrared IS EMF! Just a different part of the EM spectrum…
Yes, but beneficial!

Thanks for all the info.
On a recent visit to Holland a friend invited me to a sauna… Wonderful. They had an infrared cabin and a meditation room. So quiet and peaceful. Full day around people who have no pockets to put their mobiles or laptops and so no need for wireless. The infrared was an eye opener. Back home build one straight. Looking for a palce in Portugal to start a healing and retreat center. Should be possible in rural areas. With no clients for mobile the drive to put extra antennas gets less.
I’m also EHS and looking to move to Portugal – how is it there?
I discovered a few years ago that shielding myself from EMF’s stopped a very bad case of restless legs syndrome in me. I am very happy to see there is research being done to prove out and find cures for the problems electronic smog is causing people in so many ways.
Thank you for the additional ideas in preventing the problems they are causing.
Welcome, Ron

The best article from a psychological, sociological, and medical perspective on electrosensitivity in the popular show Better Call Saul is by former Chief Medical Librarian William Jiang, MLS on his blog at https://www.mentalhealthbooks.net/2015/03/better-call-saul-environmental-illness
It’s fascinating!
The linked mentionned no longer exists. Would anyone have the info it pointed to ? https://www.upstate.edu/ortho/research/pdf/research_history.pdf
This biography of Dr Becker states he was
Nominated for Nobel Prize for physiology or medicine (1978)

I am a sufferer of EMs and am looking to do a home treatment. Is there a certain type of sauna you can recommend? Thanks. I have been very worried I could not tolerate the saunas electro magnetic field.
Many manufacturers use shielded cable to block electric fields and magnetic field should be down to zero about a foot or two away. My first choice in Canada (30% cheaper for you) is https://saunaray.com/

I suffer deep EHS, took 75 suplements and nothing, also Fatigue chronich , fibromyalgia, chemical Cms all with juditial sentence in Spain.
Nothing can help me but living out of cmf, just 0.1 mw/meter of wifi screws me
Here is a good article :

Reading this, I feel as if I’ve stumbled into a parallel universe where an unproven physiological condition actually exists. A naturopath with a doctorate in nutrition…oh dear me.

Thank you Susan! I am one of those people you so succinctly described, harmed by IR sauna so badly that I now live in a hell unrecognized by mainstream medicine.
I had a history of heavy metal poisoning and for tears was battling the effects. But it wasn’t until a chance use of an IR sauna that my health took a turn for the worst! Unbeknown to me the sauna was in close proximity to Bluetooth and WIFI devices emitting massive radiation. Within two sessions I became a EMF hyper sensitive individual who could no longer tolerate any amount of EMF exposure. I became accurately aware of my symptoms almost straight away. It was like lightning bolts hitting my head when exposed to any EMFs. Where’s before I could tolerate Bluetooth and used it occasionally I now can not. within seconds of switching it on am crushed with a jolt of pain going through my head that is so severe I feel like I will pass out as well as intense nausea! The same
is for WiFi and 3G and 4G depending on proximity and length of exposure. I have no doubt in my mind that what you describe is precisely what happened to me. I am a victim of IR and EMF blood-brain barrier compromise that allowed the heavy metals to enter my brain. I also can not tolerate Chlorella as you rightly stated and get terrible fatigue and brain fog which renders me incapacitated for days. I also have to give blood regularly to reduce my blood ferritin as I feel the oxidative stress when a build up occurs. Giving blood gives me tangible relief from the inflammation in my body. There are many other protective actions I must take just to survive on a day-to-day. The most painful thing is that my hell isnt recognisrd by mainstream medicine and no one understands what is happening to me. Thank you again for your message in response to the nay-sayers. I feel there is hope still.
Elsa im also a severe sufferer’what u will do now?
Does anyone know if certain countries are worse? Odd question but since moving from Arizona to Spain I have been suffering terribly. Can hardly use my phone or ipad. Could it have anything to do with something that’s different in Spain?
Every site is different and should be measured by a Building Biologist. https://buildingbiology.com
The power lines in my city were updated to high voltage lines throughout the whole city and there is one running 20 feet from my house. Ever since this change, there is a constant, unbearable noise from these lines. Expensive headphones don’t block the noise and white noise doesn’t quite drown it out but helps a bit. I’ve turned out off the house power to see if it was that but the noise didn’t go away. I’m constantly tired and find it hard to concentrate due to a lack of sleep and hearing this noise, almost a pulsing in my ears/head. So I guess I’m sensitive to electricity. Is there any way to block this or supplements that would make me less sensitive?
Hi Rah,
I suggest you contact a Building Biologist to filter the dirty power and shield the electric fields : https://buildingbiologyinstitute.org/find-an-expert/certified-consultants/ If you’re lucky he or she could pinpoint a problem with the grid that your power distributor could fix.
