Imagine walking into a store and buying radium whitening toothpaste, radioactive anti-aging creams, and radium condoms. The pharmacy offers you radium-based medicines that treat everything from hypertension and diabetes to impotence and depression. At home, you drink radioactive water and go on vacation to resorts with radon baths. No, this is not a nightmare or a horror movie script: less than a hundred years ago, people willingly did all this of their own free will.
In the new episode of ‘How It Was,’ we will tell you about the fortunately short era of the use of radium in the manufacture of medicines, cosmetics, and other products. You will learn what diseases they tried to treat with radium, why counterfeit medicines are sometimes more helpful than real ones, who the radium girls were, and what will happen if you take three bottles of a radioactive drug a day.

You can still go to radioactive Spa here in the Czech republic.
"Safe and effective."
If this element was discovered in india at yogic time, they use it in a useful way

Well, it does stop aging... you don't get any older if you die!
Jesus Christ.. this is worse than the Fallout wasteland... The Children of Atom would cream their knickers if they were able to.

It wasn’t so much science as it was business. See the FDA was still relatively new being only 20 years old as it was established in 1906 by Rosevelt. So it reach was still rather limited. And pharmaceutical companies were just that, companies. And when large companies are left unchecked we get children with miners lung, people dropping dead on factory floors, and radioactive toothpaste… that will most likely turn your tooth into paste.
