WiFi: Beware of its potential threats

No one can deny the convenience and importance of Wi-Fi. It’s just a convenient device, no doubt. But there remain safety concerns regarding overall health, to be frank, especially in children. A survey says it possesses a negative issue on various things from brain health to sleep quality.

NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON CHILDREN

It’s true children are very much fond of internet and they become nerd on it. Bear in mind that the non-thermal radio frequency radiation from Wi-Fi disrupts normal cellular development, particularly fetal development. This radiation affects growing tissues, such as in children and youth. However, they would be more susceptible and the effects are at greater risk of developmental issues.

RISK TO DEVELOP INSOMNIA

WiFi highly contributes to grow negative effect on sleep. If you think, you feel sleep or you have dizziness but can’t sleep properly or get an irregular sleeping pattern; it is because of the low -frequency modulation from cell phones and Wi-Fi. Those who are exposed to electromagnetic radiation have a extensively more difficult time falling asleep. And true that sleep deprivation can be harmful to the health.

DISRUPT BRAIN WORK

Wi-Fi can grow its effect on the concentration and the brain function and at this the brain activity becomes reduced, and you may experience trouble concentrating or have memory loss.

DEFUSES SPERM

It may be ridiculous to hear of defusing or neutralizing sperms due to using Wi-Fi but it is not untrue. Wi-Fi is another focal cause that threats man’s virility and so exposure to Wi-Fi frequencies decrease sperm movement and cause DNA fragmentation. And at the same time, it may blow fertility or increase the risk of abnormal pregnancy.

IMPACT OF CARDIAC ARREST & RISK OF CANCER

It may make you surprised when you hear that cardiac stress can be increased due to using Wi-Fi frequently. Many people experience a real physical response to electromagnetic frequencies, including increased heart rate. Therefore, Wi-Fi increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases and increases the risk of causing cancer as tumor development.

LEARN STEPS TO PROTECT YOURSELF

Don’t worry, you need not think to avoid or stop using Wi-Fi. Just beware of some risks and try to maintain some rules that can protect you from the troubles. Keep your wirelss router aloof from your kitchen or bedroom. Try to avoid keeping your cellular in the pockets. Also use wired phones during at home to lessen electromagnetic radiation. If you become pregnant, don’t keep your phone close to belly because it can harm you both. Do not use wireless baby monitors, as they all operate on microwave frequency. And remember, you must disconnect all Wi-Fi devices while going to bed.
