Stephanie McCarter, M.D. is board certified in Internal Medicine and has become expert in the health effects of Electro-Magnetic Fields (EMF). She had sixteen years experience working with the late world renowned environmental medicine physician, Dr. William Rea. He acknowledged for her work in his book, “Reversibility of Chronic Degenerative Disease and Hypersensitivity”*, Vol. 1. and his recent book, “EMF Effects from Power Sources and Electrosmog”. She is associated with the Kotsanis Institute (817-857-8625). We learned what the uncontrolled cumulative exposure to the many new sources of EMF may be doing to our health; what those sources are; and how to protect ourselves. For example, apparently no one has proven that 5G is safe for humans or that baby monitors are good for baby!
