How much radiation do you get?
Using this chart I’ve estimated I was exposed to atleast 788μSv of radiation in the last 12 months, just accounting for my air travel. A μSv is called a microsievert. You’ll notice that 1,000μSv or 1mSv is the EPA’s recommended yearly limit for a regular ol’ person. I don’t think I had any x-rays last year so that should keep me under 1,000. I did eat a lot of bananas though.
