Irradiation and Food: Good or Bad?

@addempsea thank you... To answer your question, there is no known side effect of irradiation on health, because the maximum dose (10Kilogray) is not enough to cause any form of harm. The only side effects are the loss of thiamine and reduced aesthetics (sensory acceptability).

Exactly what i would have asked but that gentleman beat me to it.... Now i am actually scared of picking up food from the mall... The knowledge of radiation from movies is all i can think of. 😱😱

😂 @adetola. Like I said, fret not. Irradiated food ain't radioactive... Its super safe.

Thanks for the apt response.
