Dan Stachofsky

Dan Stachofsky is a business owner, father of 8 children, tech enthusiast, and researcher who spent years helping his terminally ill daughter live her best life. After 7 years of some successes, he realized his daughter’s primary immune deficiency was not improving and infections were worsening. This drove him to research what the root cause for dis-ease is and what, if anything, he could do to improve this for his daughter. It all came down to the terrain, or environment, within the body. We first think of nutrition and water, but the real difference maker is – light. That’s when he came across a technology that was easy to integrate into day-to-day life and raised his daughter’s vitality enough to mitigate her infections. He realized this was also mitigating symptoms of EMF exposure and, given his tech industry career, he realized he was being called into a new mission – to help a growing number of people find relief from EMF radiation. He started Essential Energy for this single purpose, and today is blessed to work with families and farmers across the world in their quest to live their best life.
