Magnets are the most bought souvenirs of recent years, but some say they can cause cancer. Which of you has no such magnets that he didn't buy on his last trip abroad or on vacation? As a gift for a friend or an interesting purchase for yourself. Magnets on refrigerator doors are one of the inevitable things that almost all of us possess in our homes.
But keep calm! It is not about cancer or causing serious health problems. The maximum that magnets can cause is equipment damage. As experts have repeatedly said, magnets in the refrigerator do not cause any physical problems to the body, but on the contrary they can disrupt the device to which they are attached, generally the refrigerator. Some studies have, in fact, found that the magnetic field generated by magnets can overwhelm all new, latest generation refrigerators, especially if equipped with a touch screen or ice-making accessory.
In recent years, the news that Princeton University research has shown that keeping these magnets in the fridge is damaging to the point where it causes cancer.
To put an end to this false news, the Italian Institute of Health has decided to put a stop to this lie and declare that there is no sound scientific evidence. According to experts, in fact, exposure to magnetic fields created by magnets is in no way responsible for tissue overheating and consequently an increase in the probability of contracting cancer, unlike cigarette smoke can.
