Attention ! Scientists made a big claim, CFL bulb in the house is causing cancer?

There was a time when only yellow bulbs were used in homes. But as the level of technology increased, scientists discovered a new type of bulb called CFL ie Compact Fluorescent Lamp. Its light is white, which also has a slight blue tint. When they light up at night, it looks as if it is day. Along with this, they consume less electricity as compared to yellow bulbs. This is the reason why the government also promoted it. But everything has two sides, on one hand this CFL has so many advantages and on the other hand it has disadvantages too. Some research has revealed that its light is causing problems like cancer in humans.

What does research say?

A research report by Abraham Haim, professor of biology at Israel’s Hafifa University, has been published in the journal ‘Chronobiology International’. In this report, Professor Abraham Haim says that when the blue light emanating from CFL falls on our body, it starts reducing the hormone called melatonin produced in our body. Actually, melatonin is the hormone that protects women from breast cancer. In the same report, it has also been said that the risk of prostate cancer is 22 percent higher in women who sleep with CFL bulbs lit at night.

What do German scientists say?

German scientists have also raised many serious questions regarding CFL. For example, Andreas Kitchener of the Federation of German Engineers says that CFL bulbs release toxic substances like strain, phenol and naphthalene. Along with this, when they burn, electronic smog gets accumulated around them. These are very dangerous for the human body. That’s why these bulbs should be used very cleverly. Especially these bulbs should not be used at all in such a place where there is no way for air to come and go. And these bulbs should not be lit near the head even by mistake.
