Many of us heard about TVs, PCs and microwave ovens negative effect on our health. But recently other technical novelties appeared. What should a modern person know to keep up to date without damage for his health?

First of all, you need to make a point of switching off all electrical appliances in your bedroom before going to bed. This way you will reduce electromagnetic load on your organism several times.

Europeans even refused from electronic alarm-clocks.

Disputes about danger of mobile phones are still relevant. Nowadays we have no proves of their harm. But we still have suspicions.

Same can be said about text messages. Recently English scientists discovered text messages affect work of internals negatively.

The matter is that E-field radiation that appears while you send a message is directed on internals.

So, when you send a message, you should move your phone aside to the maximum. In this case there will be no negative influence on your organism.

Now many people prefer keeping their mobiles on chest. Then when your mobile is calling, electromagnetic field appears on the level of your heart. According to some scientists, this can become a reason for arrhythmia and other cardiac muscle diseases.

If there are such suspicions, you should definitely think about a place to keep your mobile. If you keep it in your pocket, then lower part of your belly is exposed to rays. Same thing happens when you put your mobile in a bag.

There are two ways out from this situation. First – do not use mobile at all. Or buy mobiles with minimal E-field radiation.

One feature will help you. Find record of SAR in your mobile’s log. It means Specific Absorption Rates. It indicates level of radiant energy in watts per kilogram of brain. The lower this value is, the better, anyway, it should not exceed 1,6.

Besides, there is information saying that phones with external antennas create lower magneto-electric pollution, than devices with built-in antennas.

We should mention that phone’s E-field radiation is also reduced while usage of hands free.

At the same time American scientists doubt safety of such systems. Firstly, hearing becomes worse while its usage. Secondly, they do not reduce quantity of traffic accidents. Even the fact both hands are on a steering wheel does not help. The main diversion is a conversation, not the way it happens.

Notebook computers are also in the list of dangerous novelties. Many owners of these and LCD monitors are assured these devices are safe. They are really not so dangerous, as monitors based on electronic eye.

However, no one told they are absolutely safe for your health. You know, there is still E-field radiation, not very high, but it still presents. This means you need to switch off your PC from time to time. You should better do it once in an hour for 10-15 minutes.

People use handheld computers more an more often now. They are very comfortable, but not safe. Yes, electromagnetic field is not high. Nevertheless, you should not lean mini-computer against yourself too close. The distance should be at least 25-30 cm. Women should hold them on a level of diaphragm, not lower.

There is another very important nuance – sight. Small monitor makes one bending eyes. They are exposed to even bigger load, if you use a handheld computer in traffic.

Well, here is a conclusion: either you let technical novelties push yourself around and stand out among your friends, or you refuse from such things and take care of your health.
