Reply #7: There is radiation, [View All]

[Newest Reality]

and there is radioactivity.

I am concerned about radioactive particles in any amount. When they are inhaled or ingested via the air or via food and water supplies, they continue to emit radiation within the body at a steady rate for a long time.

In that case, the more particles inside the body, the worse the exposure, but in any case, there is a concern about having continual radioactivity emitting radiation in your body for, possibly, a lifetime.

There are many forms of background radiation from natural and artificial sources, so I am making a distinction here.
