 2 edits | Natural radiation? The sun was mentioned. How about the Uranium present in your body?
From »chppm-www.apgea.army.mil/documen···g238.pdf
quote: A typical person will contain about 100 -125 Fg of uranium. The daily uranium intake (largely from food ingestion) and excretion (in feces) in people is about 1.9 Fg. Bone contains a few thousand picograms (pg) of uranium per gram of bone ash; however, soft tissue concentrations are relatively low, in the order of a few hundred pg per gram of wet tissue.
I'm not too worried about the extremely low energy ionizing radiation from a cell phone or wifi when my own personal collection of Uranium is decaying in intimate proximity to my tissues. -- Don't confuse me with the facts... |
