Ever since becoming a Dad I have taken a natural interest in the impact of the environment on our health.  In the last 5 years I have studied the impact of all forms of EMF (electric fields, magnetic fields, RF and wireless, indoor lighting, and Dirty Electricity) on our health.  It is critical that we take a precautionary approach now with all forms of EMF and that we pay attention to the independent science and studies that we already have available that were not biased by industry.  We also should support more independent studies.   Please begin educating the public about the concerns.  Also, my wife and I have experienced symptoms when in close proximity to wireless, cell phones, and electrical fields.    These fields have impacted our nervous system, trigger headaches, impact our sleep, and there have been times when it seems they disrupted our digestion.  I have purchased professional grade meters and I recently completed studies and certification with the Building Biology Institute.   This has enabled me to measure the fields in our typical home, community, work, and while traveling and we have been able to correlate the higher fields to negative symptoms.   I have also observed negative changes in behavior of people I live and work with when they are exposed to these fields.  Thank you for taking the important step to receive comments and take steps to help mankind be healthier physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.  Let's look to nature as our guide as to what is healthy.","attachments":[],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6506","tags":["health-experiences","sleep-cognition","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"c02ad1b35afc981c4b197f9e21ca206f91f1d16544164ead56c33c4787e97e5c","slug":"health-experiences-comment-6506","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6506","body_sha256":"c6604001ef7c60e6bfd2d4183e0460ba5bcf15ddf89d5162e26c7316d16e3bae","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"neurological","topics":[{"id":"neurological","evidence":"trigger headaches, impact our sleep"},{"id":"research","evidence":"support more independent studies"},{"id":"electricity","evidence":"Dirty Electricity"}],"summary":"A construction professional reports personal and family headaches, sleep and digestive changes associated with measured fields.
