Moderate dose rate ionizing radiation increases longevity

Departments of Medical Physics, Radiology and Physics, University of Wisconsin, Madison WI, USA

Abstract

This paper presents little-known data to support the hypothesis that we need increased background radiation to improve our health. Attention will be drawn to results that demonstrate health benefits of ionizing radiation that have been largely ignored by the news media.
