Electrosmog in cars?
Up to 8,000 metres of cable and about 100 electronic components are installed in a typical modern car. Like the batteries in mobile phones – car batteries are the largest single source of electrosmog in cars. In addition, every modern car comes equipped with a convenient multimedia system that includes USB, Bluetooth, touchscreen, GPS, voice control and much miore. Although this makes driving even more pleasant, there is a catch.
Radio and digital devices generate an enormous amount of electromagnetic radiation (electrosmog) that is concentrated in a very small space. Our bodies often already feel this while we are driving, e.g. headaches, fatigue, lack of concentration and irritability – even during short trips. But what are the causes behind these symptoms?

Effects on our blood
Electrosmog has a negative effect on our cells and blood. This has been scientifically proven. The effect of electrosmog on our blood can even be observed under a microscope.See what happens to our bodies during a 10-minute car trip:
It doesn’t even have to be an electric car or a hybrid. Even every modern diesel and petrol-driven car come with so many electrical components that the driver and passengers are constantly exposed to electrosmog – in a similar way as with electric cars or hybrid vehicles.
Even the German Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BfS) has addressed the issue of electromagnetic fields (EMF) generated by the battery, engine and countless cables in cars. The following statement can be found on the BfS website:
“The strongest fields are often detected in the front-seat footwell areas. Depending on vehicle design and, for example, battery location, in some cases the highest values were measured in the rear – i.e. where children are often seated. Electric and magnetic fields are also generated when recharging the vehicles.”
The website also states that:
“The use of electric vehicles can be expected to increase in the next few years. The BfS thus recommends that radiation protection aspects should also be given appropriate consideration when it comes to electromobility.”
The BfS does not specify the measures people can take to protect themselves against the effects of radiation. Legal limits such as those for mobile phone radiation do not exist for cars – neither for diesel and petrol-driven cars nor for electric and hybrid cars.
More about limits
Whether e-car, hybrid, diesel or petrol-driven car: The memon technology can counteract the harmful effects of electrosmog, allowing drivers and passengers to enjoy the convenience of modern cars.
Tip: Electric cars have advantages and disadvantages. If you decide to buy an electric car you should take care to keep as much distance as possible between yourself and the vehicle or charging station, especially during the recharging process.

Electric cars
Nevertheless, caution is advised, especially with electric cars and hybrid vehicles. This is because their batteries emit even higher levels of electromagnetic radiation (EMS or electrosmog) than the batteries in diesel or petrol-driven cars.Even the German Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BfS) has addressed the issue of electromagnetic fields (EMF) generated by the battery, engine and countless cables in cars.
