I know a woman who insisted on doing two things as matters of routine during her pregnancy, swimming and wearing no radiation-proof clothes, which surprised each of her colleagues.

The physics tells us that any matter with a temperature higher than absolute zero would produce radiation. However, the physics also tells that absolute zero cannot be reached just by using thermodynamic means and until now humankind has not find the matter, which temperature is lower than or equals absolute zero. Therefore, we humankind are living in a world full of radiation. Of course, different kinds of radiations are different on the aspect of its relation with our health. Some radiations such as alpha rays, beta rays and gamma rays can kill cells directly or damage them, change the structure of DNA and in turn cause influence on the inheritance.

Other radiations such as infrared rays, visible light and various kinds of radio wave have the obvious effect of heating on the organism. Oven mainly uses the infrared rays to heat the meat, while microwave oven makes use of the microwave radiation.

The damaging effect of radiation ...
... was verified no more than one hundred years. The explosions of atomic bomb in Japan made the radiation become the nightmares of humankind. However, radiation not necessarily equals the nuclear war. The right mindset on the radiation is that we cannot live without the radiation and we cannot be isolated completely from the radiation.

It is also a truth that we humankind are more exposed to the electromagnetic radiation than the people about tens of years ago. However, the research on the usage of cell phone and computers has not provided obvious evidence on the damage of electromagnetic radiation.

The most widely referred large scale research on the impact of VDT (Video Display Terminal) on the pregnant women was published on The New England Journal of Medicine in March, 1991. In this research, no direct relation was found between the abortion ratio and the working environment with VDT.

Pregnant women, especially in China, may pay excessive attention on the issue of radiation protection. It is more important to do some tender excises such as swimming than to find ways to isolate you from the radiation.
