[ RadSafe ] Fwd: More on Low-Level Radiation and Health

[howard long]

This is recent evidence for radiation supplement (<100mSv/yr) being made available like vitamins or for deficient areas (like nuclear "waste" in foundations of Gulf Coast houses), similar to addition of Iodine to salt. If the Listmaster cannot permit the attachments, Bobby will forward them to interested persons.

      st1\:*{behavior:url(#default#ieooui) }                Dear Colleagues:
   
  Attached are three new publications (listed below) that relate to low-level radiation and health.  I thought you may find the publications to be of interest in case you have not seen them.  They were published in the Dose-Response journal.  These publications support our research findings that low doses and dose rates of some forms of radiation (e.g., gamma rays alone, gamma rays associated with radon exposure, X-rays, beta radiation) can stimulate the body’s natural defenses and lead to a reduction in diseases including cancer.
   
  Shu-Zheng Liu. “Cancer control related to stimulation of immunity by low-dose radiation.” Dose-Response 5:39-47, 2007.
   
  W. L. Chen et al. “Effects of cobalt-60 exposure on health of Taiwan residents suggest new approach needed in radiation protection.”  Dose-Response 5:63-75, 2007.
   
  Barbra Erickson. “The therapeutic use of radon: A biomedical treatment in Europe; an ‘alternative’ remedy in the United States.” Dose-Response 5:48-62, 2007.
