Electric Blankets - Warmth Vs EMF

[Johnson Bagfoot]

Ray advises not to use electric blankets due to high EMF output.

Some studies show that 20 years of continual electric blanket usage increases cancer rates by 30%+. However, these were not well controlled. It is also possible that people with low core body temperatures and low metabolism tend to use electric blankets.

However, I have quite bad insomnia and am frequently woken up due to outside temperature or body temperature dipping too low.

Having an electric blanket on a constant low heat seems like a good way to increase sleep efficiency. By making sure the temperature is constant throughout the night.

I could separate it from my body with a few layers.

Thoughts? I think it might improve sleep but I'm very concerned about EMF.

not worth it long term. though i'm not sure if the infared heating options pose the same risk as conventional ones.
get a quality blanket and you wont have an issue with getting cold. oldschool way of staying warm in cold sleeping areas with no oven was quality blanket and a warm cherry pit foot pad. these poly & cotton blankets don't pass the cut. feathers for people who like light blankets, and wool for those who like heavy.
