Why You Should Stop Using Electric Waterbeds And Blankets Immediately?
Electric appliances such as waterbeds, blankets, and other domestic equipment may have a positive and negative impact on our life.
Wertheimer and Leeper investigated the relationship between utilization of an electrically heated waterbeds and electric blankets and pregnancy outcome; especially, length of gestation, birth weight, congenital abnormalities, and fetal loss in Colorado.
The study population consisted of 1806 (out of 427 l) families in which a birth had occurred in two Denver-area hospitals in 1982, where the birth announcements had been published. Seasonal patterns of occurrence of slow fetal development were observed among users of electric waterbeds and blankets, suggesting that use of such appliances at the time of conception might cause adverse health effects.
