Totally. The vast majority of the ionizing radiation emitted by the sun is blocked by the Earth's magnetic field.Mittir said:Peata said:A dental hygienist once said, after my protests of x-rays, "Oh, it's no more radiation than you get from a day in the sun."
Ray Peat commented that comparing X-ray to out door radiation is completely wrong.
He said that out door radiation passes through our body without causing any major damage.
It is not the case for X- Ray.
80+% of the radiation the average American is from two single sources; radon and medical imaging. If you live in a first world country, don't work in a mine, don't fly often, and don't agree to superfluous medical "images" you'll do everything possible to avoid your ioninzing radiation exposure.
