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

Go to nordvpn.com/thoughtemporium or use code thoughtemporium to get a 2-year plan plus 1 additional month with a huge discount.
__________________________________________________________________________
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.

5:45 To put it in reference, the radiation emitted by that card is equal to standing right next to the *Chernobyl* sarcophagus. The OLD sarcophagus built originally in 1986, not the new one built in 2016. Carrying it for 8hrs/day equates to 15.3sv/year. That's 15 times the maximum recommended yearly dosage of radiation.

[@STR33TSofJUST1C3]

@@bimpa1568 Thorium is a proposed alternative to enriched uranium, not uranium as whole. A thorium based reactor still uses the nuclear decay process to turn thorium into uranium, albeit bypassing the enrichment process. But at the end of the day it's still fissile uranium 235 that is maintaining the nuclear reaction that is generating power.

[@inductivelycoupledplasma6207]

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

[@Artemis0713]

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)

The main danger of asbestos is where it's used for something subject to wear and tear.

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.

It depends on the place. But chances are the workers have proper protection. For starters it is usually not that simple to get radioactive material in industrial amounts without the proper facilities and trained personnel. You'll just be told no. Also this kind of radiation is not THAT powerful, if you wear just silk gloves and not bring it up to your face, you should be fine. The problem is when you keep it close enough to let the particles penetrate your skin. Let alone keeping it near softer tissue (like your eyes or mouth)
