Abstrakt		Man is a product of a long evolution of life in the ocean of external EM energies and the geomagnetic field. Humans also possess natural sensitivity to some of EM fields (for example the presence of the storm) or to small geomagnetic anomalies, which may trigger a weak muscular response. According to certain studies this could be the basis of understanding dowsing. There are also people, who are allergic, hypersensitive, to some frequencies of EM fields and similarly to people who are allergic to pollen. It is still unclear, what is the meaning of increasing EM pollution today. Various epidemiological studies still did not propose a fiinal conclusion. Healthy people with a strong homeostasis are probably only partially disturbed by EM fields and the effects do not appear. However, especially susceptible people and people, who are additionally exposed to stress, are more prone to be influenced by the environmental EM fields; i.e. they are thrown out of equilibrium, which can lead to number of maladies. By this, there is no linear connection between power density and frequency of EM field and an exposure to it. Beside harmful, there are also beneficial effects of EM fields, especially for some diseases. In future, we can expect more consideration of EM fields either for their harmful or for their beneficial influence. It is possible that in more remote future the fields will help us to regenerate extremities or organs.
Izvleček		Človek se že od nekdaj nahaja v oceanu elektromagnentih energij in geomagnetnega polja. Marsikaj od tega lahko zaznava na ravni podzavesti, na primer bližino nevihte, nekateri Ijudje lahko zaznavajo šibke anomalije geomagnetnega polja, kar jim lahko sproži šibke mišične odzive. Na tej osnovi naj bi po nekaterih raziskavah temeljilo bajaličarstvo. Poznamo tudi ljudi, ki so alergični, preobčutljivi, na nekatere frekvence EM polj in reagirajo podobno kot ljudje, ki so alergični na cvetni prah. Kaj pri vsem tem pomeni današnja naraščajoča EM polucija, je še nejasno. Različne epidemiološke raziskave še niso dale končnega zaključka. Zdrave ljudi z dovolj močno homeostazo umetna polja verjetno samo do neke mere obremenijo in se učinek ne pozna. Pasebej občutljive ljudi in ljudi, ki so dodatno izpostavljeni stresu, pa okoliška EM polja lahko vržejo iz ravnovesja, kar lahko vodi v različna bolezenska stanja, pri čemer pa ni linearne povezave med jakostjo in frekveneo EM polj in ogroženostjo. Poleg škodljivih poznamo tudi koristne učinke EM polj, zlasti pri nekaterih boleznih. V bodočnosti lahko pričakujemo mnogo večje upoštevanje EM polj, tako glede njihovega škodljivega kot njihovega koristnega delovanja. Lahko da bodo omogočila celo posege v regeneracijo udov in organov.
