Three aspects of hormesis with low doses of ionizing radiation are presented: the good, the bad, and the ugly. The good is acceptance by France, Japan, and China of the thousands of studies showing stimulation and/or benefit, with no harm, from low dose irradiation. This includes thousands of people who live in good health with high background radiation. The bad is the nonacceptance of radiation hormesis by the U. S. and most other governments; their linear no threshold (LNT) concept promulgates fear of all radiation and produces laws which have no basis in mammalian physiology. The LNT concept leads to poor health, unreasonable medicine and oppressed industries. The ugly is decades of deception by medical and radiation committees which refuse to consider valid evidence of radiation hormesis in cancer, other diseases, and health. Specific examples are provided for the good, the bad, and the ugly in radiation hormesis.
好的方面、坏的方面和丑陋的方面。好的方面是法国、日本和中国接受了数以千计的研究，这些研究表明，低剂量辐照具有刺激和/或益处，而没有任何危害。这包括数以千计生活在高本底辐射环境中健康良好的人。坏的方面是美国和大多数其他政府不接受辐射适应现象；他们的线性无阈（LNT）概念传播对所有辐射的恐惧，并制定了在哺乳动物生理学上没有依据的法律。LNT 概念导致健康状况不佳、不合理的医学和受压迫的产业。丑陋的方面是医学和辐射委员会几十年来的欺骗行为，他们拒绝考虑辐射适应现象在癌症、其他疾病和健康方面的有效证据。本文为辐射适应现象的好的方面、坏的方面和丑陋的方面提供了具体的例子。
