About Prenuvo's "no radiation" ads
Prenuvo is heavily promoting full body scans with "no radiation". This
is not technically accurate. These are MRI scans, and radio frequency
radiation is a fundamental aspect of the scan. This is not IONIZING
radiation (like x-rays in CAT scans) and as such are generally
considered not to have negative health effects. But it IS radiation. -L
