Today, I'm joined by R Blank, a leading expert on electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and the founder of Shield Your Body. R Blank's journey began alongside his father, Dr. Martin Blank, a pioneering scientist who sounded the alarm about EMF exposure decades before most of us even considered it (The BioInitiative Report) a health concern.

[gentle music] Welcome to Longevity. I'm your host, Natalie Needham. I'm a nutritionist, a human potential and epigenetic coach, and I created this podcast to bring you the latest ways to take control of your health and longevity. We cover it all, from new technology and ancestral health practices, to personalized interventions, and a very special interest of mine, peptides and bioregulators. Enjoy the show. Welcome back to the show, folks. I'm Natalie Needham, your host. Today's guest grew up with a scientist father, warning about EMFs long before the rest of us were glued to gadgets, spewing Wi-Fi and Bluetooth at us. R. Blank joins m- me again to explain why the conversation around electromagnetic exposure has gone mainstream, what the science says about DNA damage, oxidative stress, and sleep disruption, and how small behavior changes can dramatically lower your exposure. It turns out that the healthiest thing in the bedroom might just be a whole lot less technology. Now, R. Blank has a new book out called Empowered. I highly encourage you to get your hands on it. If this is a topic that interests you, it is a treasure trove of information. And if you decide that you wanna try any of the MF safety devices you hear about today, you can go to shieldyourbody.com, and make sure to use code NAT to get 20% off your first purchase of Shield Your Body products.
