  Computer radiation is a common topic recently. Many people think that it is very scary, However, computer radiation is dont same a the real nuclear radiation. nuclear radiation is caused by radioactive element which keeps disintegration and gives out α, β and γ ray. There rays are very high in energy. But in our lives, natural radiation is every where,tririum in the water we drink and C14in the food we eat. It will not harm our health unless you get a tons of rays.

  AS natural radiation, computer radiation is a kind of electromagntic radiation, which is everywhere in our lives. This radiation is mainly from monitors. Old monitors may generate ultraviolet ray. But, the LCD monitor will not be a problem. LCD monitors generate rays mainly from the tubes in the back, which is the same as sitting in front of a light tube.
  Therefore, Computer is not really radioactive and dangerous. People feel uncomfortable by siting at computer screen because of tired and long time siting. In conclusion, computer is not dangerous and it helps  the development of our civilization

  1. I have read a similar article about how bad the radiation from computers will be. In that article, green tea and vegetables like carrot, tomato and animal liver will help to reduce the bad influence of radiation. But the main point is we should not sit in front of a computer for too long.
