    They offer a range of top-of-the-line products designed to help identify EMF sources and intensities. Moreover, they provide laboratory-tested solutions to shield against harmful EMFs..
    What's truly remarkable about SLT is their unwavering commitment to science and verifiable measurements. They believe in the power of solid data to make informed decisions about our health and environment.
    In fact, their Safe and Sound series of RF meters and accessories has garnered recognition and trust from experts around the world. Notably, the Safe and Sound Pro II RF Meter was selected by none other than world-renowned environmental toxicologist Dr. Magda Havas for her Global RF Project, which was launched in March 2021, which speaks to the immense credibility of SLT's products and their dedication to making a positive impact.

Check this show out if you want to live a healthier life

Great job R Blank! Love the content and appreciate how comfortable you are presenting a complex subject, breaking into simple terms and adding your expertise to make it make sense for the every day guy, like me. Best of success to you with the podcast. ~Doug Sandler Turnkey Podcast Productions

Informative

Really enjoyed season 1 of this podcast. I’ve always respected R Blank because the #1 tip he always recommends is free— maximize distance and minimize usage to reduce EMF exposure.

Season 1 had excellent guest interviews.

Would love to see Doug and Patti Wood from TechSafeSchools.org on this podcast in the future and also more podcasts about specific nutrients and foods that help people heal from EHS.

Question for future episodes: If one spouse uses a shielding canopy for their side of the bed, will that inadvertently cause more emf to the spouse sleeping on the same bed and is not in the canopy?
