Ms. Liu, a reader, asks: It is well known that computer radiation is harmful to the human body. However, my job requires me to face it for long hours every day. Does anyone know how to minimize the harm of computer radiation to the human body?
Mr. Zhang suggests: To reduce computer radiation, first, it is essential to maintain a good working environment with appropriate lighting. Secondly, a glass or high-quality plastic filter should be used on the computer screen. It is also important to take breaks during work and keep the skin clean. In addition, computer operators should eat more foods like carrots, cabbage, bean sprouts, red dates, milk, eggs, and animal liver to supplement the body with vitamin A and protein. Active substances in tea, such as tea polyphenols, are beneficial for absorbing and resisting radioactive materials; therefore, drinking more tea is recommended.
