    *The Federal Agency for Nuclear Control (Fanc) is warning about radioactive products sold online because of their alleged protection against 5G radiation. The gadgets contain ores that are naturally radioactive and emit ionizing radiation and are potentially harmful to health, according to Dutch research.They include sleep masks and various pieces of jewelry. The agency wrote this on Friday. It is prohibited by law to sell products that contain excessive levels of natural radioactive substances. Nevertheless, the jewelry can simply be ordered through, for example, Amazon and* [*Bol.com*](https://Bol.com)*.*

    *According to Ines Venneman, spokesperson for the Fanc, tells Radio 1 that it is difficult to map all the suppliers of the items in question. ‘That’s why we address the public, especially now that people are looking for presents for each other under the Christmas tree.*

    *’Venneman compares the use of the gadgets to smoking. ‘It’s a cumulative effect and not good for your health anyway to be in contact with such products.*

    *’That the products in question emit radiation was tested by the Dutch National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM), at the request of the Fanc’s Dutch counterpart, the Nuclear Safety and Radiation Protection Authority (ANVS).*

    *Bracelets, necklaces and a sleep mask*

    *On the website of the ANVS there are pictures of the products investigated. They include bracelets, necklaces and a sleeping mask. The health institute calls the radiation emitted by the products equally ‘low’ and the chance ‘small’ that health damage will result from their use. ‘However, if these products are worn continuously and for long periods, long-term health damage cannot be completely ruled out,’ the RIVM researchers write.*

    *’When the substances come into direct contact with the skin for a long period of time, they can eventually cause damage to tissue and DNA. Children are especially susceptible to the negative effects of ionizing radiation’ reports the Fanc. Anyone who has an ‘anti-5G product’ in their home is best to put it ‘far away’ and contact the seller, advises Venneman. The gadgets should not be thrown in the garbage, she emphasizes, because such harmful substances should not end up in the environment. You can think of it as radioactive waste, which doesn’t belong in the ordinary garbage bin.*

  2. I got gifted one of these like last year, it’s been sitting in a box the entire time.

    I guess I’ll have to ask if the entire box is contaminated now?

  3. Het zou handig zijn moesten deze artikels ook vermelden waar je het wèl naartoe moet brengen, als het niet in de gewone vuilbak mag (uiteraard). Denk niet dat het gemiddelde containerpark zomaar radioactief afval aanneemt?

  4. Doet mij denken aan die armbandjes vroeger die “positieve energie” uitzonden en eigenlijk ook gewoon radioactief waren.

  5. “Sinds ik zo’n bandje heb tegen 5G straling voel ik me zoveel beter!”
    “Inderdaad, je merkt het echt, je straalt helemaal! Zo energiek!”
