◇What is "Beitou Stone"?

Beitou stone, known as the stone that keeps doctors away, contains radioactive radium and has such beauty and health benefits that it has been described as "like wearing a hot spring."
A bracelet made of Beitou stone, which is only found in Beitou Hot Springs in Taiwan and Tamagawa Hot Springs in Akita Prefecture in the world.
Because it is produced in hot spring areas, it is said to have the same effects as hot springs, and is often featured on television.
We sourced this Beitou stone directly from a local manufacturer in Beitou Hot Springs.
Beitou stone is a natural monument in both Taiwan and Japan, and no new stones are produced.
Therefore, Beitou stone powder is baked into ceramic (pottery).
Beitoulite is a lead-bearing barite that contains radioactive radium.
This raises concerns about radiation exposure, but both radium and the radon produced by radium decay are present in very small amounts, with the majority of radiation being alpha rays. Exposure to alpha rays can be prevented with just a piece of paper, so there is no problem as long as the radiation is not inhaled into the body.
Radium has a melting point of 700°C and a boiling point of 1140°C, so it does not become a gas and there is almost no risk of internal exposure. Radon is also a rare gas, but its half-life is just under four days, and even if it enters the body, it is quickly expelled. Please use it as if you were in a radium hot spring.
