Kitty litter that is made from clay or bentonite is slightly radioactive. Cat litter is sufficiently radioactive that it can set off radiation alerts at international border checkpoints. Actually, it's not all cat litter you need to worry about -- only the stuff made from clay or bentonite. Radioactive isotopes naturally occur in clay at the rate of about 4 pCi/g for uranium isotopes, 3 pCi/g for thorium isotopes, and 8 pCi/g of potassium-40.
Men and women of all ages can get indigestion. Itâs a common condition. But certain things make some people more prone to it. Causes include: Diseases: 1  Ulcers. 2  GERD. 3  Stomach cancer. 4  This is rare. 5  Gastroparesis, a condition where the stomach doesn't empty properly.
One of the simplest ways of relieving indigestion is to identify troublesome foods and eliminate them from your diet-or find ways of preparing them to enhance their digestibility. For example, many people experience gas and intestinal discomfort from eating vegetables such as onions, cabbage, and cauliflower.
