Radiation exposure, from both natural and man-made sources, is an ongoing concern due to its potential adverse effects on human health. Ionizing radiation, which can cause damage at the cellular and molecular levels, is linked to a variety of health conditions, including cancer, genetic mutations, cardiovascular disease, and acute radiation syndrome (ARS). This paper explores the sources of radiation—natural (cosmic radiation, radon, and terrestrial sources) and man-made (medical imaging, nuclear accidents, and occupational exposure)—and their respective impacts on the human body. A review of literature and recent studies sheds light on the mechanisms behind radiation damage and the long-term health risks. Understanding these risks is crucial in mitigating the harmful effects of radiation while benefiting from its uses in medicine, energy, and industry.
