Abstract

The health risks for people in residential zones most often result from the dangerous chemicals but also physical risks. Realization of living and working environment protection system which w ould provide harmony between humans, their activities and nature, required an integral approach. The presence of toxins in drinking water and food are significant factors ac ting on human health. The food additives become and increasing hazard and instrument for permanent disruption of human health. The occurrence of lead in the food chain and thus in human organisms is caused by the traffic and lead alkali added to petrols as anti knock agents. Ionizi ng radiation has also caused many human casualties. Electric ener gy, computer technology, cellular (mobile) telephony, television, radio and other, created extremely strong fields in the residential zones, to which humans are exposed. Mineral wool, used in the form of thermal insulation layers for thermal insulation in water supply networks and heating installations is very harmful. High level of noise and vibration damages hearing but has adverse effects on other human organs.
