Episode#3: The Dangers of Radiation: Protecting Ourselves and Our Children
Manage episode 407507222 series 3562294
Summary:
Dr. Kristin Hieshetter discusses the impact of radiation on our health and provides practical tips on how to protect ourselves from its harmful effects. She explains the concept of free radicals and the role of antioxidants in neutralizing them. Dr. Hieshetter highlights the dangers of reactive nitrogen species and the importance of magnesium in preventing their harmful effects. She also delves into the risks associated with wireless technologies and the need to reduce exposure, especially in children. Dr. Hieshetter emphasizes the detrimental effects of excessive screen time and offers strategies to minimize radiation exposure in our daily lives.
Key Takeaways:
- Free radicals, such as reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species, can damage our DNA and contribute to chronic diseases.
- Antioxidants, found in fruits, vegetables, and supplements like glutathione and Ubiquinone, can neutralize free radicals.
- Excessive calcium ion inside cells can become an egregious free radical, leading to cellular damage and tumor growth.
- Wireless technologies, including cell phones and WiFi, emit radiation that can have serious health effects, especially in children.
- EMF exposure from wireless devices can disrupt sleep, impair brain development, and increase the risk of cancer.
- Taking steps to reduce radiation exposure, such as turning off WiFi when not in use and using EMF protective clothing and accessories, can help mitigate the risks.

- "Children who begin using these devices early in life develop problems socially, psychologically, and even become physically addicted." - Dr. Kristin Hieshetter
- "The longer the kid spends on these devices, the fewer branches their brain cells can form, the dumber the kid." - Dr. Kristin Hieshetter
- "5G radiation allows nitric oxide species to get inside the cell and combine with superoxide dismutase to form an egregious free radical called peroxy." - Dr. Kristin Hieshetter
- "Children's cells on the back of their retina are very susceptible to the damages of cellular radiation." - Dr. Kristin Hieshetter
