Radiation

Interview with Dr. Timothy Jorgensen

The Q&A!

Do you have acne? Low energy? Stinky feet? Ugly face? Crossed eyes? Well have we got the cure for you: RADIOACTIVE DECAY. This week on Health Wanted, we’re putting on our lead aprons to look back at the history of radiation as a cure-all, including an interview with Timothy Jorgensen, author of Strange Glow.

Plus: Why returning to working out after a break might make you sick. Does viral load mean someone who’s sicker than you can make you sicker? What’s going on with the new dietary guidelines for Americans? And the Sick of the Week.

For a full rundown on all the information shared in today's episode, take a look at the show notes.
