A SIMPLE ELECTRIC HEATER, WHICH HAS EFFICIENCY GREATER THAN 1

[Sergh]

Does infrared heating affect human health? Has been tested the health effect of infrared heating on the long term?

Sergh,  you mean specific nm bandwidth infrared radiation ,near/far  !?
The sun radiation is also partial in the IR- spectrum.
IR-radiation is in use as medical therapy instrument.

"on the long term" has to be seen in decades range,  cause also without artificial IR- heating our body
during the evolution changed from one cell ( Amoebe)  to multi-cell bodies( human- oid)
and the first changing preview for the next evolution step will be that our human body will loose the hair

Anyway, the measurements are incorrect.

Hmm ,which measurements are incorrect ?
Could you explain it ?

Not certainly in that way. Due to the nature of pure infrared radiation, there are some problems.

What is the harm of infrared radiation to humans? One of the likely adverse effects is drying of the skin surface. The skin surface, facing the IR source, heats up, the moisture from it evaporates, while the subcutaneous layers do not have time to warm up and the body does not react with perspiration. Drying of the skin occurs, sometimes burns. Judging by the reviews of infrared equipment, the effect of "baking" the skin is quite common in infrared saunas. The same effect is typical for infrared heaters in rooms.

The impact of intense infrared radiation on the human body was studied by physicians - physiotherapists, as well as specialists involved in labor protection. In physiotherapy, intensive IR sources have been used for a long time. However, this effect is short-term, strictly regulated. In some industries, for example, in steel shops and glass processing, people are exposed to IR radiation for a long time. Infrared radiation has been recognized as a high hazard factor.

The biochemical effect of exposure to short-wave infrared rays of the protection guide is explained there by a photochemical action, which is manifested when skin is absorbed by skin proteins and enzymatic processes are activated. When the intensity of irradiation of the exposed surface of the body is up to 175 W / m2, the presence of denaturation processes in protein molecules in combination with a violation of the permeability of cell membranes is noted, which can probably be the cause of changes in the membrane potential of blood cells and the appearance of self-antigen properties. Excessive exposure to infrared radiation causes thermal damage to the retina and the lens of the eye, which can lead to the development of cataracts. Obviously, there should be standards for safe infrared radiation.
