Ionizing radiation is good for you. Yes? Buy our beta particle emitting 
pill today (Any nutritional or health claims have not been verified by 
the FDA, take at your own risk. This pill produces ionizing radiation, 
which has been proven to cause a condition known as "radiation 
poisoning" if taken in the excess.)

I understand low levels of radiation (at levels similar to normal 
background radiation) are essential for health and can help reduce cancer.
