【New House Building Materials】
Newly renovated homes often hide potential threats to our health, and the culprit behind them is the large number of harmful gases such as radon, benzene and formaldehyde that permeate the renovated houses, which are all risk factors for the high incidence of lung cancer.
Radon has been scientifically proven to be the second highest risk factor for lung cancer after smoking, and when outdoors it becomes harmless due to the dilution of the air, but when it is trapped indoors, its danger cannot be ignored.
The fat-soluble nature of radon gas makes it very easily absorbed by the lungs, and when the radon gas deposited in the respiratory tract emits highly ionizing α particles during the decay process, it will cause ionizing radiation to the lung tissue, which in turn will cause tissue cell aberrations, which may eventually lead to the occurrence of lung cancer.
Natural stones, such as marble furniture and granite steps, which are common in daily life, are potential sources of radon, and it is recommended to minimize the use of such furniture in order to protect the health of yourself and your family.
If you really like the texture and beauty of this type of furniture, be sure to let it fully diffuse and breathe after purchase. After the decoration of the new house is completed, it is best to open the window for ventilation for more than half a year to ensure the safety and health of the indoor air.
