    Re: Re:

    That's fine but i didn't actually say anything that contridicted them. The only thing they actually said is that these products exceed the limits in the Netherlands. The article that this article is based on has huge issues with their dosage math. I am only familiar with American standards for radiation safety and that is what I spoke to. I am not saying they are ok, there is a phrase when dealing with radiation ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) that these clearly violate.

    Oh no doubt that people should be aware of it. It is not a good thing to increase your exposure to radiation at all especially not for cheap jewelry.

    An interesting thing that i found out though (after reading your comment) is that a suprising amount of jewelry is radioactive to some level. Doesnt change anything just found it ingesting.

    Not that I support these things (not even really sure what they are supposed to do) but the amount of radiation that they are saying they have is very small and should have almost no effect on a healthy person.

    The average back ground radiation that a person is exposed to is .17-.39 microsieverts (1/1000000 of a Sievert) per hour. There is no effect on the body until around 50 millisieverts (1/1000 of a sievert) in a year.

    Basically these things are useless and according to every radiation safety standard I have ever seen they are harmless.
