    That's a good read! Even outside radon mines, there has been a pique in interest with regards to radiation hormesis as of recently. Although I don't fully agree with the linear no-threshold model, I can't say I often entertain the thought of low doses of radiation being potentially beneficial.

    It's worth exploring though, even if to find out it does not have any positive effects. There's some literature claiming it's better than a placebo but the results aren't exactly conclusive.
