Abstract

Overview

This research analyzes the impact of low-frequency electromagnetic fields (LF-EMF) on human immune function through a structured clinical study.

Findings

• The study utilized a controlled crossover design, focusing on the activation of neutrophils in human subjects exposed to a 5 μT LF-EMF signal for 30 minutes.
• Samples from 32 healthy volunteers demonstrated a significant decrease in neutrophil granularity post-exposure. This decrease is associated with increased neutrophil activity and thus, an activated immune response.
• Comparisons between exposed and controlled sessions pointed to definitive immune activation due to EMF exposure, aligning with prior studies suggesting heightened immune responses in cell and animal models under similar conditions.

Conclusion

The findings support potential beneficial impacts of LF-EMF exposure on innate human immune functions. This may accelerate responses to infectious diseases, illustrating a significant connection between LF-EMF exposure and health implications.
