A DC voltage and the AC onevwith the RMS equal to the DC voltage produce the same amount of heat. In fact this is one of the definitions of the RMS.

Say 120V from the outlet will heat a resistor exactly the same way as 120V DC.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
