I dont know the exact explanation but few days back i read in the newspaper that drinking RO or UV water lowers ones body's immunity......
I don't why or how/??? Just read it..... It is not a short term issue.. but a long term... i mean if such a speculation is true then it can only happen to that person whi has been drinking that water for many years... not to the one who has started drinking that water a month back......

How does UV radiation harm humans?
Since UV radiation has a shorter wavelenght than normal light it hits an object with the range 10 nm to 400 nm, and energies from 3eV to 124 eV. It causes cancer to skin cells under direct exposition of UV rad.
What layer of gas in the troposphere protects the earth from high-energy UV radiation?
Ozone protects us from the UV rays. It is present as the ozone layer.
How does melanin typically respond to ultraviolet radiation?
Melanin serves as a shield against UV exposure, which comes in the form of a tan that occurs when melanin pigments enlarge in response to UV radiation. By doing this, the skin helps to prevent sunburn damage, which can lead to cancerous melanoma.
A gas that obsorbs harmful solar radiation is what?
The Ozone Layer!! It filters out most of the sun's biologically harmful ultraviolet (UV-B) radiation and prevents it from reaching the earth's surface.
Why is ultraviolet radiation harmful to plants and animals?
Ultraviolet radiation, being of greater frequency than visible light, can affect organisms on a genetic level. They break bonds in the DNA molecule and prolonged exposure can cause adverse effects to essential genes.
Are school uniforms safe against the UV radiation?
No especially in summer because the material is thin
Which are more energetic photons of UV-A radiation or photons of UV-B radiation?
UV-B.
How does the ozone layer affects the land?
the ozone layer affects earth lands because it can kill many plants and animals by the UV radiation. It can make our land dry and evaporate water. it changes earth climate and weather depending on how much UV radiation we have.
How do UV and radiation relate?
UV is a type of radiation. It is fatal for life on earth.
Which of these is not a reason to avoid UV radiation?
uv radiation destroys vitamin D
Do UV rays get magnified in water?
The UV rays of the sun do not get magnified in water, but the part of you that is out of the water can get burned faster than if you were on dry land. This is because the water's surface reflects the radiation.
Give an example of infrared radiation and uv radiation?
Infrared radiation in an stove oven and uv radiation in a tanning bed.
Which does not belong vitamin D cholesterol UV radiation or keratin?
Hemoglobin
What happened when uv radiation emitted sodium?
UV radiation does not and cannot emit sodium.
Which are more energetic photons of UV A radiation or photons of UV B radiation?
UVB
What is ultraviolet radiation where does it come from what is uv index and how is the uv index determine?
UV radiation is released from the sun.It is harmful for life.
What type of electromagnetic radiation is used to treat the waste water?
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is commonly used to treat waste water. UV radiation in the germicidal range (between 200-300 nanometers) is effective in destroying harmful microorganisms present in the water. This process helps to disinfect the waste water before it is released into the environment.
