While commonly overlooked, the materials used in the building of your home can have a significant impact on your health
“Prescription for a Healthy House: A Practical Guide for Architects, Builders and Homeowners,” co-written by Paula Baker-Laporte, principal architect at EcoNest Architecture, is a complete guidebook to building a healthy nontoxic home
Toxic chemicals, mold and electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are common sources of chronic health problems
Elevated EMF is typically the result of improperly grounded electrical systems due to inept electricians. One way to avoid this is to measure the EMFs before you consider purchasing or renting, because it is far easier, and far less costly, to find a home that's acceptable from the start than it is to remediate
Also get general air testing done before buying or renting to check for chemicals and mold. There are several labs and industrial hygienists who can collect air samples that can then be tested for hundreds of potential pollutants, including mold
