What if an invisible force in your home was silently contributing to chronic illness? It sounds like science fiction, but groundbreaking research reveals a startling connection between a hidden environmental toxin and some of the most challenging health conditions of our time. This toxin is “dirty electricity,” and studies show it may be a significant factor in both diabetes and multiple sclerosis. This comprehensive article, featured on PEMF Magazine, will uncover this invisible threat, show you how to measure and mitigate it, and reveal how you can fight back with therapeutic frequencies from the PEMF Healing App.
We Live IN the Earth: Understanding Our Electromagnetic Environment
We don’t live on the Earth—we live in the Earth. Everything we do affects not only our neighbor, but the most distant flower or the way a butterfly flaps its wings in another hemisphere. Since 1889 and the electrification of the planet with the light bulb, our world has become saturated with electromagnetic forces that have accelerated with no end in sight. However, our saturated Earth is not a sponge, but a conductor of electricity.
When a lightning bolt strikes the ground, our naked eye sees streamers of electricity scatter in a thousand directions and magically disappear into the netherworld. Yet this isn’t what happens. The electrical current is constantly recycled, with some lightning strikes also reverberating not down, but back up into the ionosphere. Electrical utilities know this law of physics all too well, yet they ignore it when it comes to the safety of our power grid. The National Electrical Safety Code Handbook states electrical current should not be put in the ground to be used as a conductor. Instead of using a dedicated return line, utilities use multiple ground rods to conduct power from homes back to their electrical substation.
A Grid Under Siege: The Origins of Dirty Electricity
In 1972, an oil embargo pushed the United States toward greater energy efficiency, leading to a surge in modern electronics. The problem? This 21st-century technology was running on a 19th-century power grid. Our electrical infrastructure, designed for simple light bulbs and motors, was suddenly inundated with televisions, computers, and dimmer switches.
These modern devices operate using short, rapid pulses of current, unlike the smooth, continuous flow of older technology. When short pulses are generated, they create electrical fields that are thousands of times more powerful than those we had before 1970. For instance, our home wiring runs on 60 Hz (cycles per second), but now many devices can put out up to 100 kHz (100,000 Hz) and higher. To put this into perspective: our brains emit pulses of 8-60 Hz.
Since our electrical grid is not meant to handle these higher frequencies, this generates an EMF (electromagnetic field) known as “dirty electricity” (DE). We can envision the current as a wave. Linear loads are what our bodies have adapted to live in. The Schumann resonance, the electrical pulse of the Earth, is such an example. Non-linear loads are unnatural, and our organs and health can feel their impact.

How Dirty Electricity Invades Your Body
Our bodies are electrical. Our brain, heart, and nervous system all communicate using low-frequency electrical signals. When we are bombarded by the high-frequency noise of dirty electricity, our own internal systems can be disrupted. A key factor in this invasion is skin impedance.
Our skin has a natural impedance (similar to resistance) to electrical currents, measured in ohms (Ω), and varies. On average, our total body impedance is 3,000 ohms. However, when artificial electrical fields, like those generated by our devices are present, our skin impedance can drop substantially to 500 ohms. When our home contains dirty electricity, our skin’s ability to protect the rest of our body from electrical current drops. In order for electric fields to not go internal and pair with our organs, we need to remove any sources of kHz frequencies, especially where we spend most of our time.
This effect is dramatically amplified by moisture. When our skin is wet, its resistance plummets to as low as 10 ohms—making it up to 300 times less resistant to electrical currents. This is why you might feel aches in your joints or a general malaise at the onset of a storm—your body is more susceptible to the surrounding electromagnetic environment.

The Smoking Gun: Dr. Havas and Dr. Milham’s Research
Two key researchers have provided undeniable evidence of the link between dirty electricity and chronic disease: Dr. Magda Havas and Dr. Samuel Milham.
Dr. Samuel Milham, an epidemiologist, or a scientist who proves that the results obtained by other labs and researchers actually happen to the masses of people in the real world, studied historical U.S. mortality and electrification data from the 1930s and 40s. He was astonished to find that many of our “diseases of civilization”—cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and suicide—appeared to be linked to the proliferation of electricity. In one shocking case, he found that teachers at a school in La Quinta, California, with massive amounts of dirty electricity, had a 21% increased cancer incidence after just one year of employment. Schools are notorious generators of DE, due to the volume of computers, copiers, and fluorescent lighting.
Dr. Magda Havas, a renowned international researcher at Trent University, has built on this work, providing direct, measurable links between dirty electricity and specific diseases. Dr. Havas has done extensive research in schools, and found that DE increased irritability, brain fog, and headaches in both teachers and students.
The Diabetes Connection: EMF Spikes Blood Sugar
Stress increases blood sugar levels in diabetics. Research dating back to the 1950s has shown that exposure to electromagnetic energy induces stress proteins at various frequencies. In a landmark 2008 study, Dr. Havas showed that dirty electricity can significantly elevate blood sugar levels [2]. A case study of a 51-year-old man with Type 2 diabetes found:
- Rapid Blood Sugar Spikes: Working on a computer increased his blood sugar, which then dropped by as much as 0.11 mmol/L (2 mg/dL) per minute after moving away from it.
- Risk of Misdiagnosis: His blood sugar was measured at a clinic with high levels of dirty electricity. Upon arrival, he was classified as “pre-diabetic.” After 20 minutes in the polluted environment, his levels rose, and he was re-classified as a “Type 2 diabetic.” This shows that an electromagnetically “dirty” environment can lead to an inaccurate diagnosis.
- Improved Health: The research concluded that for some diabetics, blood sugar levels respond directly to electrical pollution. In an electromagnetically clean environment, Type 1 diabetics required less insulin, and Type 2 diabetics had lower blood sugar.
Dr. Havas has also done additional research into this area of study, and has found that plasma glucose levels correlate with peaks of dirty electricity in our environment. One study participant noticed that his blood sugar levels remained low when he was in his truck away from power lines and antennas, in a wilderness setting. In an electromagnetically dirty environment, his blood sugar levels would increase within minutes.
The Treadmill Paradox
If you’ve been on YouTube lately, you may have noticed incessant ads telling you how to bust belly fat by changing your diet. What most food gurus don’t address is the basis of our metabolism—our electron transport chain (ETC). Furthermore, getting on a treadmill to keep our blood sugar stable or lose weight will also backfire, as the dirty electricity running through the machine will couple directly with our body, disregulate our blood sugar, and ruin the true treadmill that helps us burn calories efficiently: our ETC. If you want to couple with healthy electrical currents, go for a jog outside! Sweating will reduce your skin’s electrical impedance, making you more likely to let in the beneficial energy and EMF from the Sun.
The Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Connection
Dr. Havas’ 2006 review also documented extraordinary improvements in patients with Multiple Sclerosis [3]. When Graham-Stetzer filters were installed to clean up dirty electricity, patients experienced:
- Improved Balance and Fewer Tremors: A significant reduction in two of the most challenging symptoms of MS.
- Restored Mobility: Individuals who previously required a cane were able to walk unassisted within days to weeks.
Dr. Havas began to work with people diagnosed with MS, who had difficulty walking and who used canes or walkers. The first person she worked with noticed improvements within 24 hours. At that stage Dr. Havas assumed this was a powerful placebo effect, but the subject’s symptoms continued to improve weekly and regressed only during wet weather, which had always been a problem for this subject. Several other people with MS were able to walk unassisted after a few days to weeks with the Graham-Stetzer filters installed.
The Cytochrome C Oxidase Connection
The mechanism may involve a crucial enzyme called Cytochrome C oxidase (CCO). Those with MS are typically hypoxic, which means they have low levels of oxygen in their neurons. CCO is a heme-based (contains iron) enzyme that is located within our mitochondria and transports oxygen to the rest of our body through what is known as our electron-transport chain. CCO is also magnetic, and requires a strong electrical charge in order to work. The chaotic fields of dirty electricity can interfere with its function, contributing to the low oxygen levels often seen in the neurons of MS patients.

What Are Some Sources of Dirty Electricity?
Before introducing dirty electrical filters to reduce EMF, it’s best to get to the source and save as much money and frustration as we can. Then if we choose to introduce filters, our total level of DE background noise will be even cleaner. Basically anything that uses what is known as a switch-mode power supply will create dirty electricity, since the electrical current needs to be “switched” or oscillated rapidly for AC to DC conversion.

Common sources include:
- Solar System Inverters (converting DC power to AC power)
- Laptop and phone chargers (have a switch-mode power supply)
- Smart Meters, both wired (add additional frequencies) and wireless (pulse frequency)
- CFL and some LED light bulbs, dimmer switches
- Cell phone antennas and base stations
- Arching on power lines
- Wireless technology
- EV chargers
- Power tools
- Computers, printers, and Wi-Fi routers
- Blenders, toasters, and other variable-speed appliances
- Treadmills and exercise equipment
Even when a charger is plugged in with no device attached, it’s still putting DE back on your home wiring.
How to Measure and Reduce Dirty Electricity

Step 1: Measure Your Environment
First—unplug anything not in use. Even when a charger is plugged into the wall with no device attached, it’s still putting DE back on your home wiring. Second, we need to measure levels of DE in our environment. Yes, this does mean we’ll need to have a meter. The good news is that you can buy a cheap AM radio to do the measurement.
You can get a rough idea of the dirty electricity in your home using a simple AM radio. Tune it to a quiet station (around 1600 AM) and walk around. The buzzing and crackling you hear is the radio picking up the high-frequency noise. As you’ll see in the video below, the AC field of 60 Hz, combined with a dirty electrical field, will couple with the radio on the 1600 AM channel (1,600,000 Hz). This creates the “I” in the interference of DE.
For more precise measurements, a Stetzerizer Microsurge Meter is the gold standard. Stetzer meters and filters are used internationally, and patented.
Step 2: Reduce and Filter the Pollution
Once you’ve identified the sources, you can take action:
- Unplug Everything: The simplest step is to unplug any appliance or charger not in active use.
- Choose Better Technology: Opt for incandescent or non-dimmable LED bulbs. When buying a modem, choose one that transmits in Mbps, not Gbps, as higher data rates create more dirty electricity. When sourcing a modem, make sure to get one that transmits in mbps (megabytes per second) and not gbps (gigabytes per second). Modems that use gbps emit more dirty electricity due to the fact that they transmit more data.
- Install High-Quality Filters: For devices that must remain plugged in, specialized filters can clean up the electrical noise. Graham-Stetzer filters are patented, internationally used filters that effectively shunt these harmful frequencies away. Even one filter can help reduce the noise from a loud fridge, and also make your fridge live longer. For a standard-size home, we recommend getting twenty filters. You can get these online, or you can also order directly from Stetzer Electric, an American company based in Wisconsin. You can even call Stetzer and speak to a real human being!

The PEMF Solution: Fighting Destructive Frequencies with Therapeutic Frequencies
Dirty electricity is chaotic, disorganized EMF. The solution is to introduce coherent, organized, and therapeutic EMF to counteract the damage. This is the core principle of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy.
While dirty electricity disrupts cellular communication, PEMF therapy restores it. It acts like a “reset” button for your cells, providing them with the energy they need to function optimally, reduce inflammation, and begin to heal. The iTorus from PEMF Healing App is a powerful tool in this fight, generating specific, health-promoting frequencies to help your body counteract the daily assault of electrical pollution.

Take Back Your Power
While the barrage from the media, cell towers, and in-laws is never ending, there is still much we can do to turn down that internal chatter, and raise our vibration. Why let silent weapons be used against us, when we can disarm them with detection?
