My Video Got 2 Companies Shut Down! (And even worse negative ion products)

__________________________________________________________________________
Last year I demonstrated that many negative ion products are actually radioactive. Since then, my video prompted amazon to pull dozens of items from their store and at least 2 companies have shut down. This time we talk about that exciting update and some new, and even more radioactive quack products I found.

    It isn't. The majority of what was detected from the card was beta radiation (gamma only dose rate was probably ~2uSv/h). I think you meant 15mSv, and not Sv, but regardless, holding the item in your hand would NOT expose you to an annual dose that high, since only your hand is being exposed, and not the rest of your body. Hence the effective dose from holding the item is almost nothing (about the same as background). Saying that it's the same as standing next to the sarcophagus is far from true

    You're off by an order of magnitude. The Geigercounter is measuring Microsieverts (μSv), not millisieverts (mSv). If you wore it for 8 hours daily that's ~15 mSv per year. Which is actual a bit less then the reccomended max yearly exposure, which in many places is set to about 20 mSv. (Or well, 100 mSv over 5 years)

    I like that you mentioned, that intact pottery with uranium is safe. Where I live alot of buildings have parts containing asbestos, as they were built when it was still legal. In our house the windowsills contain asbestos, but as long as nobody tries to saw them or anything, there is no need be afraid, that's why we were allowed to keep them. The removal is probably more dangerous than just leaving them where they are. Same for your pottery, it only got hazardous when it was broken into shards.

    A lot of houses in the UK have 'popcorn ceilings', a style of room ceiling that often contains asbestos, but are rarely seen as any danger. The main danger of asbestos is where it's used for something subject to wear and tear. A windowsill, like a ceiling, is probably fine, but if it were the window frame itself not so much, seeing as opening/closing the window might be enough wear and tear to free asbestos dust that's actually dangerous.

    It's probably not radiation causing that (even if the item is radioactive) because you'd need extremely levels of radiation to cause sunburn-like effects (beta radiation can do it). It's more likely that you have a chemical sensitivity to something in the bracelet - nickel allergy is a common problem that crops up with people who wear jewellery or watches. You did the right thing by stopping wearing it immediately and it's unlikely that you'd have any lasting effects from it, but keep an eye out just to be sure and maybe stash the bracelet away somewhere safe that nobody else is going to find it and wear it. That way if you did ever have any kind of problem and they wanted to test the bracelet then you've can still provide it.

    Thank you so much for covering this. Quackery is something that really grinds my gears. When I was a young adult and was diagnosed with cancer I had no familial support and was uninsured. The way that snake oil peddlers targeted me as though they were sharks smelling blood in the water was despicable. It is not hard to fall for this type of nonsense, especially if you are an isolated, terrified and desperate person. Luckily, I managed to keep my wits about me, but I won't lie and say that certain quackery wasn't tempting. This shit infuriates me.

    @@hauntedshadowslegacy2826 ._. Mmmm, I see the anti-american propaganda has gotten to this person too. While America has it's problems, I'm almost certain none of those shitty products were made in America. Besides lmao, most stuff in America isn't manufactured here anyway. When it comes to highly radioactive shit like this, the people in charge of controlling said radioactive materials wouldn't just be puttering about doing nothing. If there are legitimate concerns about something this potentially insanely dangerous, they'll do something about it. edit: Apparently one of the companies is based in Florida... But that's Florida, because Florida isn't as lovely as you'd believe. Good god. Great place to visit, not a great place to stay. It's also an LLC. Aka Limited Liability Corporation. Why such a company would be allowed to buy radioactive materials I don't really understand, but as it's said in the video the NRC has since banned the sale of these products, so it shouldn't be long before the problem is fixed, if it hasn't been already.

    I have a vintage camera lens from the 1960's that's coated with Thorium Oxide. Had it for 20 years, I haven't started glowing yet. However, the original style of battery for the light meter in the camera accompanying it was a MERCURY CELL. Jesus Christ, the 1960's where a WILD time. Thankfully the light meter in it isn't sensitive to Voltages, Im able to Jimmy rig a hearing aid battery into it and IT WORKS! Sure beats those spendy Aluminum Air Light meter batteries that last precisely 1 year from the date of installation regardless of how much you use them. Great for professionals, inconvenient for the hobbiest. But considering I just quit smoking like 3 months ago, we'll see how long cancer escapes me.
