World Health Organization announces "the latest complete list of carcinogens"
Article 67-Ultraviolet radiation, Article 100-Solar radiation, Article 1 16 -X-ray and γ-ray radiation belong to electromagnetic waves and are classified as Class I carcinogens.
Attention! Electromagnetic wave is a substance, which includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared rays, visible light, ultraviolet rays, X rays and gamma rays. From a scientific point of view, any object above absolute zero will automatically release electromagnetic waves. So strictly speaking, we can't say that "electromagnetic waves are several carcinogens", but we should say that "ultraviolet rays, X rays and gamma rays belong to several carcinogens".
Only a part of high-frequency electromagnetic waves (ultraviolet rays, X-rays, gamma rays, etc.) belong to carcinogens. ), because the higher the frequency, the greater the energy and the more obvious the damage. Radio waves, microwaves, infrared rays and visible light with relatively low frequency are not carcinogens. In other words, don't worry about cell phones, WiFi signals and microwave ovens causing cancer.
