Wi-Fi and Your Health
Wi-Fi technology has become an integral part of our daily lives, allowing us to connect to the internet wirelessly. However, there are concerns about the potential health effects of Wi-Fi and other wireless devices. Let’s explore what the current scientific evidence says about this topic.
What is Wi-Fi?
Wi-Fi is a technology that allows devices such as computers, smartphones, and smart home devices to communicate data wirelessly. It operates by emitting radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (EMF), a type of non-ionizing radiation.
Health Effects of Wi-Fi
Health organizations, including Health Canada and the World Health Organization, have conducted extensive research on the health effects of radiofrequency EMF emitted by Wi-Fi devices. Here are some key findings:
No Health Risks: Current scientific evidence suggests that the levels of radiofrequency EMF emitted by Wi-Fi devices are well below safety limits and do not pose health risks.
