Healthy Home Hacks Podcast

In this episode of Healthy Home Hacks, CEO of Earth FX Inc., a research and development company, Clinton Ober, will reveal a surprising healing modality that’s right under our feet, grounding or earthing. After a successful career in the cable industry, Clint discovered grounding wasn’t just beneficial for wires. Clint created Earthing.com after experiencing firsthand the health benefits of connecting to Mother Earth. Clint explains how to properly connect to the earth’s natural electrify field, the surprising health benefits of walking barefoot, and how we’ve lost our connection to these natural energies. He’ll share which materials are and are not conductive and how to benefit from this safe and natural remedy to reduce pain and inflammation - even if you can’t get outside to walk barefoot each day.

Electrical engineer, Building Biology Environmental Consultant, and Electromagnetic Radiation Specialist, Lawrence Gust spills the beans about electrical radiation (EMR) components present in today’s indoor environments. From electric fields, magnetic fields, and radio frequency (RF) radiation from wireless devices, Larry differentiates the inside sources that we have control over and outside radiation sources.

Larry shares the symptoms from unwanted exposure to EMR. RF exposure can interfere with sound sleep, and make people more susceptible to cancer and Alzheimer's disease. RF radiation has also been shown to increase infertility and reduce sperm health and production. Larry explains how some radiation, even at low levels, has been demonstrated to cause damage to cell tissues and to DNA, which has been linked not only to brain tumors, but to other cancers as well including leukemia, and breast cancer in women and men, and a suppressed immune system.

It’s National Breast Cancer Awareness Month making this episode highly relevant and enormously essential. Today, 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. After losing her husband to cancer, filmmaker and investigative journalist, Megan S. Smith, suddenly lost three friends to breast cancer and began asking questions. In her newly released documentary, bOObs: The War on Women’s Breasts, Megan questions the controversy surrounding the most widely used breast cancer screening tool today, mammography.

No stranger to controversial topics, Megan interviews doctors who disclose how mammography can affect the lives of women through over-diagnoses, radiation-induced cancer, trauma-generated metastases, and unnecessary treatments such as chemo, radiation, and mastectomies — and how and why safer screening tests of thermography and ultrasound are being kept from wider use.
