Foods to Help Protect Against Radiation

 Now radiation is a huge topic. Also known as EMF’s or electromagnetic frequencies we have to be very careful because there’s no way of getting around this toxin. With our constant use of computers, cell phones, iPads, Bluetooth headphones, Bluetooth everything we are bombarded with EMFs. At Healing Arts our goal is to minimize the effect of radiation on the body by healthy lifestyle choices and support the body with the right nutrition to help detox it.  The first step is to get an EMF blocker for your cell phone. Unfortunately there are a lot of EMF blockers out there on the market that do not work so do your research and find one that works. We like to use EMF Harmony. They have ones for the cellphones but other products as well. 

Lifestyle changes include not having your cellphone in your pocket. Carry it in a bag instead and do not charge it by your bed. At least have it across the room on airplane mode and better yet would be to have it charging in a different room but I know a lot of us use it as an alarm. Try not to have laptops or iPad directly on you when using them but on a table or at least on a pillow. Now the bluetooth headphones people have are an EMF disaster, having that sit right there in your ear, so close to your brain drives me crazy.  For those of you who have them I”m sure you love them and they do look nice but it’s better to go without especially if you are suffering from high blood pressure, headaches, neck pain or other joint inflammation.  Go back to the headphones with a wire and actually I like those headphones better than holding the phone to your ear too.  So when you are using your phone and you can use your headphones with a wire or put the phone on speaker and off your body  that is the safest way to use your phone. 

At Healing Arts we are all about using food to heal.  Food that you want to add to your diet specifically to help detox radiation includes chlorella, spirulina, broccoli, Brussel sprouts and seaweed.

Spirulina is nutrient-dense, with just one tablespoon of this powdered supplement containing 11% of the recommended daily intake of iron and four grams of protein. After the Chernobyl incident in 1986, the Institute of Radiation Medicine in Minsk proved that children experienced enhanced immune systems, T-cell counts and reduced radioactivity with 5 grams of spirulina a day for 45 days. Spirulina can be found in most health food stores as a green powder that can be added to smoothies. I personally add a raw paste one from https://www.rawlivingspirulina.com/ that is organically harvested from Florida.  

Chlorella is another type of algae and has the highest chlorophyll content. Studies show it helps protect against gamma radiation. So eat your green veggies to have more chlorophyll in your diet.  Chlorella and liquid chlorophyll can also be found in most health food stores.

Brassica vegetables and high beta-carotene vegetables – Researchers have found that all the brassica family plants protect your cells from the damaging effects of radiation. Beta-carotene has also been researched and found to protect your cells against radiation. Brassica vegetables include broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, turnips, broccoli rabe, collards, kale, kohlrabi, mustard, and bok choy. Beta-carotene can be found in concentrated amounts in foods such as sweet potatoes, carrots, kale, spinach, turnip greens, winter squash, collard greens, cilantro, fresh thyme, cantaloupe, romaine lettuce and broccoli.

Beans and lentils have high nucleotide concentrations. Nucleotides are the building blocks that make up RNA and DNA. Nucleotides also carry out several critical functions needed for cell replication, as well as neutralizing toxins, increasing cellular metabolism, improving the response and efficiency of the immune system, enhancing the effects of antioxidants and increasing the body’s ability to heal and repair. Other foods high in nucleotides include spirulina, chlorella, algae, liver, anchovies and mackerel.

Fatty acids, such as cod liver oil and olive oil can protect against radiation. Studies have been done to show olive oil helps protect the liver against radiation given during cancer treatments.  

Make healthier choices when it comes to using electronics and eat your veggies to protect yourself from EMF toxicity.

Health Benefits of

Diatomaceous Earth

Food grade diatomaceous earth (DE) is a white powder that is almost entirely made of silica.  Silica is a mineral that is already in our body and is an important component of our  ligaments, cartilage, and muscles. When taken as a supplement DE may help to absorb mercury, E. coli, parasites, viruses, pesticide, radiation, drug residues and other toxins.

The only cautionary side effect that we have found relating to food grade diatomaceous earth has to do with direct inhalation and is essentially the same caution that is advised when handling any fine powder. Diatomaceous Earth is a very fine powder. 

Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth is 89% Silica.  It was established in the 1940s that life can’t exist without Silica. More recently, in her book “Water & Salt” Dr. Barbara Hendel states: “Silica is the most important trace element in human health.” Silica plays an important role in many bodily functions and has a direct relationship to mineral absorption.

Yet most people are, in fact, silica deficient.  We carry around 90mcgs of silica per 1 gram of hair we have on our bodies and we carry around 100mcgs of silica per 1 gram of bone.  Silica is in all of our connective tissue and it is so very important to include this mineral in our diets. Silica is mostly found in the fiber portions of whole grains, and the skins of fruits and vegetables.

Among other things, enough silica in the body is vital for calcium absorption to allow calcium supplements to work.

Reported Health Benefits of Silica / Diatomaceous Earth Include:

1. Maintaining Healthy Blood Pressure Levels
2. Maintaining Healthy Cholesterol Levels
3. Better Calcium Utilization for help with Osteoporosis and Healthier Joints
4. Stimulates Weight Loss
5. Improvement in Hair, Nails, Teeth & Gums
6. More Energy

According to Kayla T. Daniel, PhD, CCN and Galen D. Knight, PhD in their article “Mad as a Hatter” there is no better product to detox heavy metals and radiation from your body than with Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth!

Take diatomaceous earth daily on an empty stomach. I recommend starting small and slowly working your way up to a higher dose; begin with a teaspoon added to at least 12 ounces of liquid. Mix vigorously and drink immediately.  Some people don't like the mildly chalky flavor and gritty texture. If that describes you, try adding DE to a drink with more flavor (milk, orange juice, coffee, smoothies) or to light foods like yogurt, oatmeal, or applesauce.

As your body begins to detox, you may experience what is commonly known as "die off," which sometimes gives people mild flu-like symptoms for a couple days. This is a side effect of toxins leaving your body, not a side effect of DE itself. You can counteract these symptoms by increasing your fluid consumption, as well as reducing your DE dose for a couple days.

For gum health, because DE is one of the most nourishing substances for your gums, as your gums are connective tissue, which needs silica. To use it, mix 1 heaping tablespoon with water into a paste consistency. Pack it into your gums overnight after you brushed your teeth. Your gums will absorb the diatomaceous earth.  

If you have other ideas on how to use DE please share!

Why Smart Meters Aren't So Smart

Smart meters are a new technology that can read the amount of utilities such as electricity, natural gas, or water that you use and then send that information as an electronic signal back to the company. In the past, the data from the meters had to be read by a person but smart meters have now been used for a number of years in some developed countries, especially in parts of Europe. In recent years, they have been installed in some areas of the United States as well.

Concerns have been raised about the safety of smart meters because they give off the same kinds of radiofrequency (RF) waves as cell phones and Wi-Fi devices. But instead of just giving off a signal every now and then 'smart' meters give off random electronic signals because they are constantly talking to a central computer system. 'Smart' meters are typically installed outside the home, either in place of or as part of existing meters. How much RF energy that people are exposed to from the smart meter depends on how far they are from the smart meter antenna and how the smart meter sends its signal. The frequency and power of the RF waves given off by a smart meter are 'only' 2-millisecond spikes of RF and so the companies claim they are safe.  But it emissions are randomly assigned to a pattern of alternating frequencies—the pulses keep shifting which frequency they are using. At least 90% of the pulses are not your data, but the “mesh network” talking to itself—also known as network “chatter.”

The spiked pulses are like a strobe light.  Strobe lights also emit spiked pulses, about 1/2 millisecond each. The “smart” meter pulses can go off at a rate of 2 to 20 per second. Strobe lights are known to have neurological effects, and are not allowed to be sold if they strobe at a rate above 10 pulses per second. Some people cannot be around strobe lights, they set off visually triggered seizures. The “smart” meter RF emissions constitute an all-new, bizarre pattern, unlike the pattern of emissions from your cell phone or any other RF-emitting device. But the utility companies all claim low RF emissions because the calculations used to arrive at the low RF exposure numbers that most utilities published are arrived at by time-averaging. “Smart” meters have an unusual, unpredictable pattern of RF emissions, usually referred to as “pulses”—sudden high levels of RF followed by no emissions. Each pulse is about 2 milliseconds (2/1000th of a second) long.

By time averaging, they can bring down the total peak level that they claim the meters emit.  Yet if f you time-average the strong millisecond pulses of a strobe light, they “equal” a low-wattage light bulb continuously on; but no one would legitimately make such a claim. Strobe lights have distinct neurological effects in many people—headaches, dizziness, and for some- epileptic seizures and radiation effects have already been researched about here and include headaches, rashes, fatigue, mood swing, irritability and sleep disturbances. RF radiation is classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), as “possibly carcinogenic to humans.” Because RF radiation is a possible carcinogen, and smart meters give off RF radiation, it is possible that smart meters could increase cancer risk.  Here is a video showing a person's blood before and after exposure to a 'smart' meter done by a doctor I personally know and trust. 

The good news is that in some places where 'smart' meters are being installed, people have the choice to opt in or opt out of having them, but this isn’t an option everywhere.  To sign a petition to stop having them installed in NY sign here. 

How to Reverse Radiation from being Harmful to Helpful Using this One Device

Many of us are aware of the ill effects of radiation on the body from xrays, microwaves, computers and cellphones.  Also called electromagnetic frequencies or EMFs, these waves of energy can cause headaches, rashes, fatigue, mood swing, irritability and sleep disturbances. The reason for such symptoms is because on a cellular level, the radiation can cause a “blow out “in your cells resulting in “holes” in the membranes causing inflammation. The higher the frequency, the greater the energy transmitted, the greater the damage. To read more on the damaging effects of emfs, click here.

So what do you do about something toxic that we use in our daily lives?  There are a lot of little things you can do to make big changes  such as use headphones when possible to keep the cell phone away from your head. Don't carry the cellphone in your pocket or on your body but instead in a bag or purse.  Don't sleep next to a charging cellphone. Use speaker phone instead of Bluetooth to reduce radiation emissions.  Earthing can give the body a boost and fight off radiation.  Earthing is walking bare foot in a park or on the beach to collect negative ions from the Earth to help balance out the excess positive ions that are in our body due to the radiation.  Purchasing a Himalayan salt lamp helps because it produces negative ions.   Unplug appliances and Wi-Fi when not in use.  I have seen these little changes make a big difference in people's lives but I wanted that one easy thing that could make all EMFs neutral and now I have found it!

I recently received the Lemurian Plug as a gift from a good friend of mine.  It is a small plastic box that you plug into any outlet in the house or apartment and it makes all the radiation that the house or apartment is giving off neutral!  When I went to the website about the Lemurian Plug I couldn't believe it.  I kept reading and reading and it truly sounded too good to be true!  Not only will this one thing neutralize your whole house but if you then plug your cell phone into another outlet in your house and let it charge up that frequency will then be transferred into your cell phone! Now you can use your cell phone to transmit the same healing frequency as the Lemurian Plug.  

I was skeptical at first but understood the physics behind it so I knew it could be possible. So the next thing I did was test it out.  Knowing that my cell phone always makes me go weak when muscle testing it, I plugged my phone in same room with the Lemurian Plug and then muscle tested myself with my phone again and I didn't go weak! That was enough proof for me that at least the Plug has enough power to neutralize my phone to no longer hinder my health and buy enough to sell at the office to make it easily available for my patients at $35 per plug.  

The website also says if you have pain or a sore shoulder, neck, knee, wrist (tunnel carpal), elbow, sprained ankle, knee, etc., plug an extension cord into an outlet and then gently wrap the extension cord around the area. (Don't cut off blood flow!) Each time you wrap the cord around, you intensify the strength. For example, 5 times around is 5 times the strength. The extension cord is picking up the frequency of the Plug through the outlet. Use this method 5 times or more and you may get some powerful relief. Do this near your bedtime for about half an hour. Then place your cell phone on the problem area with a bandage or wrap to secure it to the sore area and go to bed. People with COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) put it on their chest.

Fortunately or unfortunately I don't have any pain to test this out so if you do and you try it please leave a comment and let me know of your experience.  How amazing it would be if it was true that EMFs that were once so harmful to us could actually be helpful!  We have them in the office for purchase or online, $39. 

Radiation: Damaging Effects From Your Cell Phone and Other Technology By Addison Landry

Technology is with us everywhere we turn and the amount and complexity of what we encounter is growing at a startling rate. With so much attachment, ease and connection to our devices what we have failed to notice is the effects it has on our body.

I am going back to basics of the body’s physics to relearn the important premises that determines how our body reacts to our surroundings and its capacity for healing. The first premise is that the human body has an Innate Intelligence that is constantly adapting to its immediate environment, for better or for worse. The body is attracted to a wholesome, nurturing environment and is repelled by a negative or toxic environment. The second important premise is that each body has a field of energy that surrounds it and can “read” the environment for the purpose of maintaining it’s balance. Understanding that the body has an energy field that is constantly emitting and changing can now allow us to understand how the energy emissions (radiation) can affect our health and balance.

All technology we use emits some sort of electromagnetic radiation. There are electric fields that develop through the amount of voltage it uses and then there are magnetic fields that develop from the flow of electric current. These radiation fields are large so they can connect with wireless devices that we use, wireless devices need to be connected to a source to function and through these radiation fields it occurs. Our text messages don’t come from thin air. The higher the electric field or the greater the magnetic field, the stronger the electromagnetic radiation.

Currently almost everything is going cordless which means extra radiation to transmit information. The frequency used is getting higher. Mobiles phones, smart watches, computers, ipad’s, televisions, navigation systems, microwaves, smart meters, wireless network connections (Wi-Fi routers) honestly any electric device you use is producing a varying magnetic field which interferes with your body's frequency and energy field.

These signals interfere with our nervous system, confusing or distorting the messages to and from the brain. Radiation is damaging to the body and can cause symptoms that include: headaches, rashes, fatigue, mood swing, irritability and sleep disturbances. On a cellular level, exposed over long periods of time they also can cause “blow out “in your cells resulting in “holes” in the membranes causing inflammation. The higher the frequency, the greater the energy transmitted, the greater the damage.

The good news is there are ways in which we can protect our bodies from these harmful emissions to keep our body in balance and healthy.

• Use headphones when possible to keep the cell phone away from your head.
• Use speaker phone instead of Bluetooth to reduce radiation emissions.
• Earthing- connect with nature, walking bare foot in a park or on the beach, it reduces the ambient voltage from everyday electricity power sources.
• Unplug Wi-Fi when not in use.
• Purchase a Himalayan salt lamp.
• Unplug appliances when not in use.
• Radiation protection: EMF cell phone protection chip can be placed on your cell phone, Wi-Fi, router and computer to protect you from the emissions.
• Purple plates are used to protect the body from the negative radiation field.


The fact is electromagnetic radiation is all around us every day but we have never really seen how it can affect us long term. That is the perfect reason to protect ourselves and take extra precautions, because our health is too priceless not too.
