BeSafe: technology against electromagnetic pollution.

April 24, 2020

Without realizing it, we are immersed every day (and night!) in a veritable sea of invisible waves-ionizing radiation.


We still know little about the effects of electromagnetic pollution and human health. The findings of scientific studies carried out have so far yielded controversial and inconclusive results.






What is certain is that, when a biological organism is in an electric or magnetic field, inevitably, an interaction takes place between the forces of the fields, charges and electric currents present in the organism's tissues, which causes a "deviation" of the condition of the tissues themselves. What effects these interactions may have in the short/long term is still not entirely clear.


With the ever-increasing use of devices and technologies that use electromagnetic fields--think of radio and television systems and telecommunications--and the lack of clarity about the results of the studies carried out, led the European Parliament, starting in the late 1990s, to set up regulations with minimum health and safety requirements related to workers'exposure to electromagnetic fields.





Let's try to understand the topic better.







Explaining in a simple way what electromagnetic waves are is no easy matter.


Magnetism has been a phenomenon known since ancient times, likeelectricity, but only with the advent of modern physics and more recent discoveries has it been possible to fully describe the phenomenon of magnetism and electrical phenomena.


In short, we can say that electromagnetic waves are oscillations of the electric and magnetic field that carry energy. The different energies of these waves correspond to different wavelengths and different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum.






There is scientific evidence that electromagnetic fields interact with biological tissues. The interaction is more powerful the closer you are to the source and varies with frequency.





The effects induced by electromagnetic fields are distinguished between thermal and nonthermal effects:



  • Thermal effects are due to the transformation of electromagnetic energy into heat, and the amount of heat depends on the frequency and intensity of the field, the duration of exposure, and the water content of the tissue being passed through.


    But, fortunately, the levels to which we are normally exposed (e.g., when we watch television or use a PC) are not sufficient to produce significant heating, and the human body has its own temperature self-regulation system that restores the situation. These effects are, therefore, not to be considered dangerous.



  • Nonthermal effects, on the other hand, include biological changes due to interaction with molecular structures but, as yet, we do not know how this occurs.


    The main disorders that can occur are related to the nervous system-irritability, depression, tremors, dizziness, sleep disturbances; the cardiovascular system- tachycardia and vasodilation; and the endocrine system-hyperthyroidism.




To date, there is no data showing with absolute certainty a correlation between EMF exposure and cancer, but neither is there absolute certainty to the contrary.
For this reason, theInternational Agency for Research on Cancer(IARC) has classified magnetic fields as "possibly carcinogenic to humans."






First of all, what is ionizing radiation?


Ionizing radiation is a special type of electromagnetic radiation that is endowed with enough energy to "ionize" the matter it passes through, resulting in the creation of electrically charged particles. These release energy, creating potential damage to the structure of the materials passed through.






Depending on the extent of the exposure and how it occurred, there may be health consequences ranging from damage of cellular and extracellular structures to genetic damage.


Electromagnetic waves and neutrons with sufficient energy are indirectly ionizing, meaning that their interaction with matter generates directly ionizing particles.


How to protect yourself from electromagnetic waves?


One of the main commonly used sources of electromagnetic waves is the cell phone.
To do without them now seems really impossible....


how to shield yourself from electromagnetic waves, then?






As always, research and technology come to our aid and provide us with innovative fabrics that can create a real screen to protect us, reducing exposure.





BESAFE is a special fabric made of flexible, lightweight materials capable of shielding and blocking electromagnetic waves produced by cell phones, promoting better protection of the human body from the health risks ofelectromagnetic pollution.


By visiting the U-POWER website, you can find a wide range of items that provide protection against electromagnetic waves, easily identified by the special BESAFE icon located at the bottom of the product page:




We, today propose:







A jacket made of U-4 way stretch fabric that is soft on the skin, very comfortable, water-repellent, breathable and quick-drying.
It features two large front pockets, two large inside pockets and a cell phone pocket on the chest.
BESAFE technology screens out electromagnetic waves.
The fit is ensured by the contoured hem and adjustable anti-wear drawstring inside the pocket.
The hood is retractable and adjustable.
It matches theAtom pants .







U-4 way stretch fabric vest: perfect for spring and prime warm weather! U-4 fabric that follows the body's movements in four directions simultaneously and BESAFE technology ensure extreme comfort and protection againstelectromagnetic pollution.
The style has two front pockets, a zippered chest cell phone pocket and two large inside pockets.
It matches theAtom pants .


Safety and protection are the most important thing, and for U-POWER it is always in the prime!
