Is tinfoil-hatesque EMF poisoning real?

I personally believe that it is real (just go camping where there's no service and you'll feel better) but it's hard to prove without decades of study and money, which won't happen because there's so much money to be made.

There are other reasons why camping makes you feel better. Earthing/grounding gets you in touch with the earth's natural schumann resonance (through the canvas tent) and the fresh air. Also too getting away from distractions.

There's a real study on this, but they don't speculate what the cause it: http://time.com/4656550/camping-sleep-insomnia/

Could that just be the feeling of being outdoors, and away from distractions for a while?
Stop thinking about it and go with your gut feeling. EMFs are clearly the only reason you would feel better camping. /s
I dunno, but turning my home circuit breakers off does make me feel better
