89: The Silent Risk Hiding in Your Pocket with Nick Pineault
Could your phone really be increasing your risk of breast cancer?
In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with investigative health journalist Nick Pineault—known as The EMF Guy—to expose one of the most overlooked threats to women’s health: electromagnetic fields (EMFs). From cell phones to smart homes, radiation is everywhere—and few are talking about how it affects your hormones, your sleep, and potentially, your risk of breast cancer.
Nick’s passion for uncovering environmental toxins began when his own mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. What he discovered about EMFs led him to write one of the most approachable guides on the subject—and today, he's breaking it all down for us.
🔍 In This Episode, We Cover:
✅ Why EMFs may be contributing to rising breast cancer rates
✅ How breast tissue may be more sensitive to environmental toxins
✅ Why 5G and radiofrequency radiation act as endocrine disruptors
✅ How women are more vulnerable to EMF-related hormonal changes
✅ The impact of EMFs on sleep, hormones, and immunity
✅ Why smart homes aren’t always healthy homes
✅ Practical, science-backed ways to reduce your exposure
💡 Key Takeaways:
- Breast tissue may be more sensitive to environmental toxins
- Radiofrequency radiation is a classic endocrine disruptor
- 5G technology increases exposure to harmful EMFs
- Women are more likely to experience hormonal disruptions
- The complexity of women's hormonal health makes them more vulnerable
- Reducing EMF exposure can improve sleep quality
- Biohacking devices should minimize radiation exposure
- Turning off Wi-Fi at night can enhance sleep
- Smart homes often increase EMF exposure
- Practical steps can help reduce EMF risks
Nick "The EMF Guy" Pineault is a bestselling author, investigative health journalist, and a passionate advocate for safe technology. He authored The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs, a well-regarded book that blends humor, science, and common sense to demystify the health impacts of electromagnetic fields (EMFs).
