Studies show that long-term exposure to radiation increases the risk of all forms of cancer, tumors, blood disorders, miscarriage, headaches, insomnia, anxiety, etc.. Radiation exposure overtime can cause skin burn, dry wrinkled skin and photo aging. Many electronic products that we use on a daily basis expose us to harmful radiation. Computer radiation is most harmful to skin health because we sit directly in front of the computer for long period of time with our face absorbing the radiation. Lessening this type of harmful radiation is important. Computer radiation can make you feel sick without you knowing it. Most people who works with computers everyday feel ill without knowing the cause. Using laptop or LCD does not exclude you from the negative health affects of computer radiation. All computer monitors emit low levels of radiation. Laptops and LCD monitors emit less radiation than the old fashioned CRT monitors. One suggestion I know is to use radiation filter..... ANY ADDITIONAL SUGGESTION? (well, aside from do not use computer please)

Most of the concern fear, and stress-related issues to this concern are simply physcosamatic. Meaning, if you spend your life concerned about what could or could not effect you, then its going to happen, because you've convinced yourself it will. Relax, take a breather. Eat right, take care of yourself, find some way to move around. Most health concerns aren't neccarraly from "radation" but from hours upon hours of sitting in one spot with moving or making any real effort to take care of ones self. Just because you're stiff, tired, have a headache, don't automatically assume its because of the radation admited from your computer screan. I know that's not quite the suggestion you're looking for, but I'm not going to lie to you. I spend several hours a day in front a computer, taking breaks and use the machine daily. I get headaches, but I don't automatically assume its radation posining. Please.... you're in more danger geting x-rayed then you are sitting in front of a computer. Just because you experance vague syptems doesn't mean anything. It could mean you're tired, haven't eaten or moved in a while, or something real simple.

I think CRT screens are more dangerous.Now we are living the world of radiations.Every electronic device we are using emits radiations which in long run is a concern.But up to some extend we can reduce the impact of this radiation.We can use LCD monitors in the place CRTs.Reduce the mobile usage.We can check our electronic devices for leakage.
