theelectromagnetic pollution and its effects on health.

pollution has become a problem, with consequences for the environment and human health. but instead of improvements in recent years known contaminants has joined Electromagnetic pollution

when it comes to talking about electromagnetic pollution electromagnetic pollution produced by the electromagnetic fields due to the multiplicity of electrical and electronic appliances around us everywhere in our around as home, office ,shopping centers, etc.

Electromagnetic radiation is divided into two broad categories, depending on your energy level:

ionizing and non ionizing

ionizing radiation, radioactivity and x-rays, ionizing radiation emissions are produced by electric current, radio and television, and mobile phones (called microwaves).

how we affect the microwave

Animals use electricity agencies to develop their vital functions, it runs along the nerves are electric currents. electroencephalogram or electrocardiogram what they do is to record the electrical activity of brain or heart to detect irregularities in its operation

I must say that almost every day there is a team of researchers who discover new changes: one is through increasing the permeability of the blood-brain barrier: : Neurons, like all cells are covered with a membrane that protects the outside.

Microwaves cause dilation of the pores of the membrane which is permeable to certain substances and should not enter neurons. This process allows the microwave link with brain tumors, Alzheimer's disease and memory loss, such as direct consequences. Another avenue of influence is through the production of melatonin.

“Melatonin is a recently discovered hormone produced by the pineal gland, one of whose functions is known to regulate the sleep-wake rhythms. An alteration in their production has been dislocations sleep and others, such as depression, fatigue and in extreme suicidal ity.”

Laboratory experiments have shown that low-intensity radiation cause DNA breaks. The DNA is responsible for producing specialized cells and their failure can cause the production of specialized cells, ie  cancer.
