Science or gimmick? Those so-called radiation protection plants

-

Generally speaking, radiation-resistant plants that spread widely on the Internet are mainly concentrated in the following categories of plants:

First, plants originating from tropical regions with dry, hot and strong ultraviolet rays, such as cactus, cactus, aloe, succulent plants, etc., their anti-radiation function mechanism is closely related to their anti-UV facts.

One is the common indoor foliage plants with strong air purification function, such as orchid, green pineapple, golden kudzu, etc., probably because the role of purifying the air has secretly changed the concept of radiation protection, and their sensitivity to radiation has led to the yellowing of leaves, which plays a warning role.

In fact, according to the existing relevant scientific research and literature, there is no clear mention of which kind of plant has the role of radiation protection, ultraviolet radiation and electron radiation can not be inferred, the so-called radiation the stronger the better, the more ridiculous. From this point of view, many people hawking under the brand of radiation-proof plants in the market are nothing more than gimmicks made by merchants, and they are the only ones who really benefit, while urban white-collar workers are still bathed in a variety of electronic radiation every day.

However, after the hope of radiation-proof plants is dashed, we do not have nothing, and there are many other effective ways to reduce the effects of radiation on our bodies. For example, measures such as washing your face frequently, increasing air humidity, drinking more green tea and eating more fruits and vegetables can meet the diverse needs of different people. How do you say that? There's always one for you!

Although the radiation protection plants have been falsified for the time being, the plants themselves are not at fault. Their elegant, lovely, gorgeous or simple posture can still be the reason for people to put them in front of the table. Let's enjoy the beauty of these "radiation protection plants".

Postscript: since its birth, the concept of radiation-proof plants has lost its scientific rigor and objectivity, but it has still been popular for so many years. The reason is nothing more than the fear of modern urbanites for the by-products of science and technology, as well as their yearning for and dependence on beautiful nature. Life comes from nature and participates in the material cycle after death. Today, before the emergence of silicon-based life, let's devote more to nature and feel every division of carbon-based life cells.
