EMF exposure can potentially affect your sleep quality and patterns by interfering with your body's melatonin release and circadian rhythm. 

For example, a recent study showed 132 power plant workers exposed to EMFs and 143 unexposed workers. 

Researchers put on their detective hats, measured the -EMF intensity at workstations, and then calculated the time-weighted average. 

They used questionnaires to assess sleep quality, stress, depression, and anxiety.

The exposed workers had a tougher time catching Z's and felt more down in the dumps than the unexposed group. 

It seems like the more EMF exposure, the higher the stress, depression, and anxiety levels. 

Imagine being a technician with the highest exposure— their sleep quality was even lower than the others!

So, what can you do to minimize EMF exposure during sleep? 

First, keep electronic devices like smartphones, tablets, and laptops out of the bedroom or at least a few feet away from your bed. 

You can also unplug Wi-Fi routers and other wireless gadgets at night. 

Moreover, consider using EMF protection devices or adopting EMF-shielding practices, such as blackout curtains and grounding sheets.
