Harms of each EM wave

Exposure to electromagnetic (EM) waves over a prolonged period can have potential harmful effects on human health. The specific harms vary depending on the type of EM wave and the intensity and duration of exposure. Here are some potential risks associated with long-term exposure to different types of EM waves:

1. Radiofrequency (RF) Waves:

   - Thermal Effects: RF waves, emitted by wireless communication devices such as cell phones and Wi-Fi routers, can cause heating of body tissues, leading to thermal effects. Prolonged exposure to high levels of RF waves may result in tissue damage or burns.

   - Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS): Some individuals claim to experience symptoms like headaches, fatigue, and skin irritation due to RF waves exposure, although scientific studies have not consistently supported the existence of EHS.

2. Microwave Radiation:

   - Thermal Effects: Microwaves used in cooking appliances can cause heating effects on the body if exposure is prolonged or at high power levels. This can lead to burns and tissue damage.

   - Cataract Formation: High levels of microwave radiation exposure can potentially contribute to the formation of cataracts in the eyes.

3. Infrared Radiation:

   - Thermal Effects: Infrared waves, such as those emitted by heat sources, can cause burns and tissue damage if the exposure is intense and prolonged.

4. Visible Light:

   - Eye Strain and Damage: Excessive exposure to bright light sources, such as intense sunlight or artificial light, can cause eye strain, fatigue, and potentially contribute to long-term eye damage.

5. Ultraviolet (UV) Radiation:

   - Skin Damage: Prolonged exposure to UV radiation from the sun or tanning beds can lead to skin damage, sunburn, premature aging, and an increased risk of skin cancer.

6. X-rays and Gamma Rays:

   - Ionizing Radiation: X-rays and gamma rays are forms of ionizing radiation that have high energy levels. Prolonged exposure to these waves can damage DNA and cells, leading to an increased risk of cancer and other health conditions.
