The Boiling Frog
We live in an era where convenience takes priority over our health, pre-packaged food to save time, toxic preservatives in our products to keep them longer and powerful 5G internet, to provide faster, stronger wireless network connections.
It is the last I want to talk about today, 5G has already been rolled out to parts of the world and is currently being rolled out to Australia. The CEO of Telstra is very proud of the upcoming 5G roll out but no safe study has ever been conducted on 5G. We are a generation of human guinea pigs being tested for something that even common sense will tell you that is just downright dangerous.
Despite the mounting evidence suggesting harm, people point out that there are no conclusive scientific studies that EMF radiation can cause cancer and significant health problems. Many years ago, there were no conclusive studies confirming that smoking cigarettes caused cancer. How many decades of evidence and how many lives did it take before we and the government were finally willing to accept that smoking kills? With EMF radiation we are at the start of the journey to realise how dangerous it is and as with smoking we are reluctant to start on that journey as we have a societal addiction.
Feeding this addiction for bandwidth and convenience, we have super strong Wi-Fi, Smart Meters, Smart TVs, Smart Fridges, Mobile Devices, Fitbits, Airpods. The list goes on and on.
30 years ago, my grandmother knew radiation caused cancer hence we were not allowed to sit any closer than 2 metres to the TV. Present day we have gone backwards, we now wear radiation emitting devices, strapped onto our body 24/7. We even sleep with them on. 😱 Have you ever wondered why we are the sickest generation ever?
So what exactly has happened to the wisdom of my grandmother’s generation? With all the advancement of science and technology, shouldn’t we know even better now? Well in my grandmother’s generation they probably believe in common sense. They were probably not fed so much biased media propaganda so their views were unbiased. Also convenience was probably not their priority.
I remember when I told my mum 7 years ago that microwave ovens were bad, how they altered the structure of the food molecules, killing a lot of the vitamins and that it emits radiation. She looked at me and asked, then how am I able to reheat my food?
My question back to her was, how did you used to reheat food when a microwave oven did not exist? She didn’t want to know, because knowing means inconvenience and she continued to use the microwave for many years.
Same for Wi-Fi. I have explained to my family and friends the dangers of having Wi-Fi beaming all day long in the house, especially for the little ones who are more vulnerable to damage caused by the radiation. But my advice fell on deaf ears, they just nodded at what I said, and continued with their way of life – Wi-Fi turned on 24/7. My only guess is that it is inconvenient to walk over to the router to turn off the Wi-Fi button when not using the internet.
Today, I see people wearing Airpods everywhere. Because it is too inconvenient to have wired headset hanging around the neck (talking about wired headset, it isn’t the safest option either, I will talk more in a separate post). I remember I warned one of my colleagues about a year ago of the dangers of having this Bluetooth radiation beaming right at the brain when worn. The response was, well there were no conclusive scientific studies that Bluetooth can cause cancer so he continued using it, day in and day out.
Common sense should say that having a headset capable of maintaining a clear signal to a receiver on the other side of a building through a solid concrete core is outright dangerous to have next to your brain. Again convenience trumps common sense.
So, in the name of convenience, we have allowed dangerous things to slowly creep into and take over our lives. We trust the government to protect us, but governments may not always have our best interests at heart. And they are as prone to errors as any other organisation if not more so, just within the last 10 years in Australia it is easy to see government blunders.
Do we really trust solely the government to take responsibility for our well being or should we think for ourselves? We happily accept the news thrown at us by the media, social media and the government at face value. We have become so reliant on our government to do the right thing that we have lost our ability to trust our own instincts, or step out of our comfort zone to do our own unbiased research and investigation.
I have been labelled an ‘extremist’, even by the people closest to me. An extremist I am, so be it. Yes, I don’t conform to the social ‘norm’, and I don’t conform because I no longer trust that the government is well enough informed to have our best interest at heart. I no longer trust the news on the media is unbiased. I believe in common sense and my own basic human instinct.
If we are to tell people a hundred years ago, that we eat food laden with chemicals, we drink water that is fluoridated (a known poison), we wash our hair and brush our teeth with toxic SLS, we wear radiation emitting devices 24/7, we drink chemical-laden soft drinks, we say fat is bad, heavily processed hydrogenated oil is good, sugar is ok, white bread is fine, raw milk is so evil it is completely banned, butter causes cholestrol, they will think we are totally stupid and mad. And yes in many ways, we are!
And how did we get to this point (myself included for most part of my life)? Have you heard of the story of the boiling frog? If not, read them here.

We are a generation of boiling frogs.
For me, I was awakened after going through a series of serious health battles before I finally took the effort to take a good hard look at what I’ve allowed to creep into my life that had robbed me and my family of our health. I have never since looked back.
My health and my family’s health has taken a quantum leap for the better since we started the journey of natural living, removing as much toxin exposure in our lives including EMF, VOC, chemical-laden household and skincare products, processed and inflammatory food, to name a few. We fill ourselves with healthy, nourishing healing whole food. We support our body to detox for environmental toxins and we protect our home from internal and external EMF radiation.
It wasn’t that long ago (2.5 years ago), I told my husband when I was so sick in bed that if I continued being this sick I would die very young. I no longer believe this because I am no longer sick. My son, after years of battling IBS is now a healthy happy child.
I am still learning every day, doing my own research, digging really deep. It will be a lifetime of learning but at least I can say, I have done my part to protect myself and my family. I am looking forward to the future…
