What are the dangers of infred?

Answer 1

Infra red radiation is what we feel as heat. An 'overdose' would cause burns, however, our bodies are adapted to feet it so we tend to shy away from concentated sources of infra red.
If you doubt me, try putting your hand in a fire, sitting in an oven or ....well, you know. The only hazard from IR is the immediacy of a short term blast of it.

At doses that don't hurt Infra red is harmless. Remote controls and bluetooth, etc are of no consequence. When IR is strong enough to harm us, our bodies feel it.

The same is not true for sources of radiation of other types.

UV warns us that we're in long term danger because of sunburn. Again, pretty obvious. The rarer sources of radiation we have not got biological defences against. X-ray, Nuclear radiation. All really rare in nature. These are the ones we need to worry about.

Microwaves from mobile phones, I believe, the jury is still out on. It seems likely that they serve no damage. The general increasing of the populations stupidity is due to poor quality TV

Answer 2

Infred? Whats that?
Did you mean Infra red....no dangers that I have heard of
Did you mean Inbred......well all sorts of genetic malfunctions!

Answer 3

I would suggest that the dangers of "infred" could be HIV, unless a condom is used.

Answer 4

Although infrared is important, it also has some dangers associated with it. The thin gold films on space crafts reflect infrared rays from the sun which can harm both people and the equipment on the craft.

Answer 5

Infred? am i being blonde or does that not make sense?

Answer 6

I suspect that you may be referring to the injectable iron called "infed" here--somehow, I can't feature you meaning infra-red.

The main risks of infed are local discoloration of the tissue (brownish spots in the area of injection) and iron overload--you can, after all, get too much of a good thing, even iron. Any injection can, of course, set you up for a local infection, and may be quite uncomfortable.

That's the major stuff, anyhow.

Answer 7

Infrared radiation though below the visible light range, can be felt as heat. Apparently, it can cause cataracts under longer exposure, but Ultraviolet and higher end radiation is more potent and can penetrate your body farther than Infrared.

Answer 8

As the good old saying goes...."too much of a good things is bad for you" well too much of anything is bad for you. Excessive interactions with infrared radiation from lab equipment could potentially be bad for you but there is not defiinate documented ill effects associated with infrared radiation......y else would we use it for tv's, radio's etc

Answer 9

you mean infrared? some say it can cause cancer if you prolong the exposure all the time

Answer 10

it can affect your ability to spell.
