“Brandon LaGreca has done an extraordinary job of articulating the science underlying the EMF health effects issue, the different types of EMFs that are ubiquitous in our world, and the many steps that we can take to begin cleaning up our electromagnetic environment.”

Cancer and EMF Radiation details the science showing DNA damage from nonionizing EMFs, mechanisms of action leading to cancer formation from EMF exposure, and practical strategies to protect you and your family.
Four corroborating lines of evidence suggest EMFs are a far more significant risk factor for the development of a number of cancers than previously thought:
1. Experimental research showing DNA damage from EMF exposure
2. Long-term epidemiological studies on cancer development from EMF exposure
3. Mechanistic research on the effects of EMFs on melatonin and calcium channels
4. Research from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services National Toxicology Program documenting “clear evidence” of increased cancer growth from EMF radiation in animal models
Learn about these sources of EMFs:
1. Microwave radiation—radiofrequency fields from mobile phones, smart meters, and Wi-Fi networks
2. Low-frequency EMFs—AC electric and magnetic fields from household wiring and connected devices
3. Voltage transients—higher-frequency harmonics in the electrical grid known as dirty electricity
Protect yourself and your family from EMFs with three practical and actionable strategies:
1. Avoid: Properly measure EMFs to determine safe exposure.
2. Remediate: Change lighting and alter electrical circuits to remove voltage transients.
3. Shield: Employ technologies that effectively block EMF transmission into the body.
Brandon LaGreca, LAc, MAcOM, is a 2005 graduate of the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine, a licensed acupuncturist in the state of Wisconsin, and nationally certified in the practice of Oriental medicine.
Having been exposed to acupuncture at a young age, Brandon began his formal study of traditional Chinese medicine through the practice of qi gong at age 13. After the completion of his master’s degree in acupuncture and Oriental medicine, he continued his education with postgraduate clinical work in Nanjing, China.
In 2015, Brandon was diagnosed with stage 4 non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. He achieved full remission eight months later by following an integrative medicine protocol that included immunotherapy without the use of chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery.
Brandon created his Empowered Patient Blog to share his experience growing stronger through and beyond cancer. He now lectures and writes extensively on holistic cancer therapies and is a columnist for Acupuncture Today.
As the founder and director of East Troy Acupuncture, an integrative medical clinic serving southeast Wisconsin, Brandon specializes in whole food nutrition, ancestral health, and environmental medicine.
