Negative Ion/Anti-5g Products Are Actually RADIOACTIVE

Ads for negative ion products seem to be all over the place these days and they are all the rage with the "wellness" crowd. With wild claims of vague or impossible health benefits, most people chalk it up to just being a scam or just a harmless product designed to separate people from their money.

But the reality is so much worse. Negative ions are a very real thing, but making them takes energy. So how do you make a piece of plastic bracelet keep producing negative ions forever? Well, you fill it with radioactive material. In this video we go through all of the testing I did over the last few months to determine what's in these products and if they're dangerous.

    "the real danger happens when you use these products as intended" is probably the most damning thing you can say about a product
  • @bigclivedotcom
    Well that's a bit of a step backwards. It's very reminiscent of the radium health drinks.

    Conspiracy theorist: "5G emits dangerous, cancer causing radiation!" wears thorium bracelet to protect themselves from it
  • @TheNillyNill
    I can't stop thinking about the workers that make these and how dangerous the working environment may be.
  • @Rappoltt
    "The real danger is when the products are used as intended." Fantastic!
  • "This radioactive product is a miracle cure" Hold up I thought we already went through this time period in the world history
  • @doriancosta6260
    I had a balance band (negative ion emitting) my mother made me wear for 3 years before the rubber ripped on the back. I really hate to think how much radiation I may have been exposed to
  • Fun fact: At 5 uSv/hr, it would only take 166 days to exceed the maximum federally allowed annual radiation exposure for a nuclear power plant worker.

    4:27 Wellness product: "it works as an anti-oxidant" Also wellness product: generates free oxygen radicals
  • @MoldyStir-Fry
    I'd much prefer simple fraud than actually dangerous products being on the market. At least with fraud the only thing hurting is gullible people's wallets...

    I know this video was quite a while ago. A friend of mine who is afraid of 5G... (A subject for another time) bought these stick-on pads for your phone to protect yourself from 5G radiation. 🙄 Anyway, as an electrical engineer I made some tests, they did nothing to stop RF. Interestingly, I put them near a Geiger counter and could not believe what I saw!!! The glue used to stick these on is loaded with thorium! I will say that again, the adhesive is loaded with thorium. The 4 of them together, we're showing just north of two mcs!! Imagine keeping that in your pocket all day, occasionally removing it for 30 minutes at a time to put it near your head. I can only imagine when the adhesive starts to decay and particles become airborne. These are another Amazon product. I only tested one brand, but I see that they sell many.
  • We really are back in the 20s hyping up those lovely radiation-filled products!
  • @marktaylor2087
    My mum bought me one of these pendants for my birthday last year, I thought “heh, why not wear it” didn’t think it’d cause any harm. 19 months later I’m constantly exhausted.... quickly removes it

    I lived in Japan for 11 and a half years and I was shocked at the contrast between the IMAGE Japan puts out there of a hyper modern society and the REALITY on the ground of Japan as an unregulated heaven for quackery. There are so many terrible products in Japanese drugstores ranging from, as you mentioned, supposedly ionized face cream, to pads you put on your feet to supposedly suck out bad "toxins", to cosmetic procedures that can actually cause severe side effects such as injecting mineral oils into the face.
  • It’s really impressive that the best case scenario is that you were scammed into buying a piece of plastic that isn’t doing anything
  • What I've learned: salt lamps have nice aesthetic but don't actually do anything, and everything else just kills you.
  • @spikey5281
    That first part about the salt lamp explains so much. I thought they were pretty, looked up prices and have been wondering why they're charging so much for a light bulb in a piece of salt ever since.
