Studies have been performed on the use of shortwave radiation for cancer therapy and promoting wound healing, with some success. However, at a sufficiently high energy level, shortwave energy can be harmful to human health, potentially causing damage to biological tissues, for example by overheating or inducing electrical currents.

The HPA also says that due to the mobile phone's adaptive power ability, a DECT cordless phone's radiation could actually exceed the radiation of a mobile phone. The HPA explains that while the DECT cordless phone's radiation has an average output power of 10 mW, it is actually in the form of 100 bursts per second of 250 mW, a strength comparable to some mobile phones.
The concept is under significant research with related concepts in digital media use and mental health. Screen time is correlated with mental and physical harm in child development. [2] The positive or negative health effects of screen time are influenced by levels and content of exposure.
Blue light has a significant impact on numerous physiological processes in human health. [3] The widespread use of blue light in modern technology brings up a concern about the potential consequences of excessive blue light exposure. [4] Such exposure has been associated with disruptions in ocular health, sleep patterns, and well-being. [4] [5]
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health conducts Health Hazard Evaluations (HHEs) in workplaces at the request of employees, authorized representative of employees, or employers, to determine whether any substance normally found in the place of employment has potentially toxic effects, including indoor air quality.
Standing more does not improve heart health compared with sitting and may increase a person's risk for circulatory issues such as deep vein thrombosis and varicose veins, a new study finds.
It’s important to point out that there is minimal science on whether D5 siloxane poses any health risks to humans — most of the research on its potentially harmful effects are on animals.
Usage of electric cars damages people’s health and the environment less than similar sized internal combustion engine cars. While aspects of their production can induce similar, less or different environmental impacts, they produce little or no tailpipe emissions , and reduce dependence on petroleum , greenhouse gas emissions , and deaths ...
