Laptops, smartphones, internet has become a part of human lifestyle in the current era. However, new research suggests that the use of Wi-Fi can damage sperm and reduce male fertility. The cause, according to Reuters Health, because the electromagnetic radiation produced by wireless communication devices. In a study published in the journal Fertility and Sterility, researchers took samples of 'cement' of 29 healthy volunteers. Cement placed under a laptop Wi-Fi- enabled and connected to the internet. After four hours, as much as 25 percent of the semen no longer swim. Nine percent of the cement tested even DNA damage. Meanwhile, the semen sample is placed near the laptop is turned on but not connected to the internet showed minimal damage. Similarly, the samples are stored separately. "Our research shows that the use of laptop computers connected to the internet and are positioned close to the male reproductive organs can decrease sperm quality," the researchers wrote in the journal. However, they are still not sure whether these findings apply to all wireless devices. Or, there are other factors that effect. Have you heard this news? Feel free to share your opinion!!

Ya the radiation emited by wifi is very harmful but they are harmful only then if we are standing very close to it,they give a warning that please have a distance of 25cm,when the radiation comed in contact with cells they harm the cells,this could also result in cancer,there are many greedy people who want to earn money by dont bothering about there life,in india many people have setuped a tower on rent for money,they dont know that how harmful it can be,the radiation from towers is 1000 times more energetic than the radiation emited by wifi..............................
