Electronic devices have become indispensable elements in today’s life, technology as a whole has so many advantages that we have already internalized it in such a way in our routine that for many people it would be very difficult to imagine living without it. Almost all tasks are easier, also avoid errors and guarantee better results.
Many technologies are relatively new. Therefore, the effects of devices on humans are only beginning to be studied, although there are already conclusions about it, the truth is that it has not yet been accurately determined how they can affect our health and whether it is possible for the devices to produce significant changes in the brain.
- “Life is not a technology or a science.
- Life is an art.
- You have to feel.
- It’s like walking the tightrope.
- -Osho-.
What we do know is that the implications can be very relevant, in fact, the recommendation is to avoid excessive exposure to electronic devices, this means not having these devices close to your body at all times, it also involves knowing how to periodically disconnect from them. In addition to being aware of any symptoms if you start having health problems without any other identified causes.
Magnetic contamination is a proven fact. Electrical and electronic devices generate a magnetic field that naturally influences the brain. Take, for example, commonly used devices: television and computers.
In 1987, an experiment was conducted at the Institute of Labour Medicine in Lodz, Poland. A group of female rats, who were pregnant, and a group of male rats were exposed to 4 hours a day in front of a television, 30 cm. The result in females was that their offspring were heavier and larger than normal and in men, the weight of the testicles has decreased. In both cases, the amount of sodium in the cerebral cortex and hypothalamus also decreased.
In computer science, a number of research has also been conducted, in one case it was concluded that pregnant women working in front of a computer are more likely to have an abortion, usually those who work in front of a screen more often Has these symptoms: dry mucous membranes, redness of the skin, dry eyes, pimples on the face and open pores, swollen eyes , fatigue, migraine and stress.
All this is because computers generate a magnetic field with positive ions, in addition the screens cause us to reduce the frequency at which we flash, the ions are transmitted by air and the user receives them in one way or another. It can even cause dizziness, dizziness, nausea, etc. The solution is to keep at least one meter from the device, this applies to both TVs and computers, in addition, at the time of purchase, in both cases, TCO certification must be required.
Social life is perhaps the most changed aspect in our lives thanks to electronic devices, the way we meet, interact and manage new relationships with other people is very different now and is constantly renewed. Almost every year, a new application or feature appears that changes daily communication patterns.
One of the most striking aspects of these new forms of communication is that they emerge easily, anytime, anywhere, no matter where you are. There is always the possibility to receive a message, a call, an email, whatever its relevance.
Therefore, the rules of the game in the modern world require us to be attentive to many stimuli at the same time, it is common for the same task to be interrupted several times when communicating with another person, so it is necessary to restart the activity. This is when wear and tear occurs, known as the “cost of change. “We pay that tax when we divert attention from one task to another and then focus on what we used to do.
Similarly, the brain should pay attention to a flashing light or sounding alarm or a vibration that appears, or a window that opens. All these signals are interpreted, in principle, as a threat or an emergency. This doesn’t mean you’ll be terrified when you see these signs. This means that your senses are alert and a small alarm sounds inside you. At all times and in the medium term, this results in an additional dose of stress.
