Anyone know any outlandish misconceptions roughly speaking Radiation Sickness?

i wanna hear some really crazy old wives tale In America in the first partly of the twentieth century, there be a craze for radioactive drinks, cures and spas. People spent considerable amounts of money on irradiating themselves, at least contained by part because one Dr. C.G. Davis have written in the American Journal of Clinical Medicine that ‘Radioactivity prevents insanity, rouses lady emotions, retards dated age, and creates a splendid youthful joyous life’.
He be right in a sense, after first drinking radioactive fluids, the immune system mounts a life-saving defense. This reaction of well-being was the childish flush that Dr. Davis referred to. Unfortunately it's not a permanent flush. The craze last into the 1950s.
One product, Radithora, came contained by half-ounce bottles each next to 2 uCi of radium. Eben Byers, the well-known Pittsburgh industrialist, U.S. amateur golf winner, could attest to the veracity of the manufacturer's claims. He was so convinced of the product's worth that he averaged three bottles a light of day - until parts of his face started falling stale. He died of radium poisoning in April 1932.
