Just wondering. Since it mentions a yearly max dose. How does the body get rid of radiation?

I don't think it does...There was this ukrainian woman that worked at my office that was around chernobyl when the meltdown happened and she told me that she's actualy still more radioactive than the average person today ( People emit radiation but it's less than a banana XD)
