Reviewing _what _they_have_reviewed

The article that I have chosen to review was the article of Mr. Eric Ibasco which is the Computer Radiation. I chose this article because it concerns all of us. And I guess as IT people we should not only focus on what benefits can we get from Computers but also we should be aware of its effects on us especially on our health.

The article is about the harmful effects that we can get from computer radiation and some helpful tips that we can do to avoid or lessen this type of harmful effects.

Studies show that long-term exposure to radiation increases the risk of all forms of cancer, tumors, blood disorders, miscarriage, headaches, insomnia, anxiety, aging of the skin, skin burn, etc. and computers are one of the electronic product that is widely used which is a source of radiation.

Computer radiation is very harmful on the skin health, because we sit directly in front of the computer which makes our skin to absorb directly the harmful radiation. All monitors emits radiation so using Laptops or LCD is not an excuse. Monitors emit enough radiation to affect your health and appearance.


One of the popular solution of lessening radiation is the use of a radiation filter. This product will eliminate 94-99% of the harmful radiation emitted from your computer screen. Radiation filters are available for all types of computer monitors, and they work well to protect you from radiation. it would also help if we would place the processor tower away from our body for this will reduce the radiation that affects our body. Knowing these things, I think as an individual we should be responsible in protecting ourselves from this harmful effects so that we could maintain and live a healthy and strong body. It is important that we know the effects of what we do and what we use so that we would know the necessary measures in sheilding ourselves from this harmful effects. Remember: "Magatos Magkasakit!"..

Do you think technology, like computers, has been beneficial to us? Where do you think this thing will lead us?
