The Good Ole Days When Men Were not Sitting at Starbucks zapping their Sperm
Research Study from the BioInitiative 2012 Report Summarizes a Sperm Study
The news from the research front is that Laptop EMF Destroys Sperm and sperm are fondly remembering the “good ole days” when young men did NOT sit in Starbucks answering emails on their WiFi-enabled laptops or talking on phones that they pull out of their pockets!
Research is not the sexiest topic in the world, but some studies are so important we have to pass them onto you. In a study* that was published in 2012, the authors wanted to find out what effect WiFi-connected laptops could have on healthy sperm? Let’s face it, when you walk into a Starbucks, there are a lot of guys in their 20’s and 30’s in there, drinking lattes, cappuccinos, and espressos, some for hours at a time.
The 29 Guy Study
Twenty-nine healthy guys gave samples which were obtained under 2 different conditions. The first group was exposed to a Wi-Fi-connected laptop for 4 hours. The second group was not exposed to the laptop or Wi-Fi.
They studied 3 parameters.
The first factor, viability, was the same for both groups. This could be considered good news. The bad news is really pretty bad. Sperm do not fare well when EMF radiation is messing around with them.
The second factor was sperm motility: the ability for the sperm to move properly towards an egg This was impaired by the Wi-Fi and this means the sperm just don’t make it all the way upstream to fertilize the egg. No fertilization = no baby! If you are attempting to start a family, this is a serious issue.
The 3rd factor they measured is called DNA fragmentation. From our blog on 2-20-2013, we learned that EMF can penetrate through tissues and directly damage DNA. DNA fragmentation is DNA that HAS been damaged. It can make egg fertilization less likely as well as cause genetic abnormalities or miscarriages.** It’s exciting to have a family, but if your child suffers from genetic abnormalities, or your partner has a miscarriage because of DNA damage that might have been avoided, this is something incredibly important to know!
The Results – Bottom Line for Guys and Sperm Viability
The Bottom Line: Guys – if you are in the “make a family” mode, go take a vacation, away from wireless, and then start your family. If you can’t do that, at least stay away from your wireless applications for a day or two (a nice weekend) before you offer her your sperm. You will never know what issues were avoided because you provided healthy sperm, and that’s one of those things that it is fine not to know!
Healthy sperm – healthy babies – we’re for it!!
EMF Blockers for when you really have to use that laptop.
We get it – you may need to use that laptop – if so, do it responsibly and protect yourself with a combination of products.
Get an EMF Blocker Pad, you can also use the spray front and back on your laptop, and maybe even use a flex-shield for further protection.

Author Note
Note from BioElectric Shield – If you’ve read anything we’ve written, I’m sure you’re expecting this…above all, wear your personal BioElectric Shield which will protect you everywhere you go. If you live in a densely populated area and/or have a lot of technology of your own, or neighbors who do so, we recommend also having Room Shields in your most-used rooms – the media room and of course, your bedroom.
If you have to keep your cellphone on your body, consider EMF Shielding like our SYB Products
Why Protection is Important
Why are we recommending multi-level protection? Your levels of radiation exposure are increasing almost daily…more cell towers, Smart Meters, smart cars, cars with BlueTooth technology, electric and hybrid cars, WiFi and WiMax everywhere, and who knows what else is going to be added to the mix in the upcoming months and years. This multi-level protection isn’t about us selling more products, it’s about our mission to help you live a safer, healthier, happier life. When you compare these protective options with the alternatives, they are a bargain especially when you factor in the long lives of the Shields – we still have customers wearing the Shield they purchased in 1990.

We talk to people daily who have gone from healthy to EMF sensitive and even extremely ill in a short time after having just one more EMF source added to the mix. One of the big issues with getting to this point is that once your body has reached that tipping point, you tend to become more sensitive not only to EMF but to other toxins and frequencies around you, and getting back to a healthy state takes much longer than if you prevent the problem in the first place.
