This is quite amazing ... Radioactive quack cures
Just after the discovery of radium, by Pierre and Marie Curie, this chemical element became so popular that soon it was put in some foods, creams and even water, exposing many people to radiation. Minute dilutions of radium were added to tea, health tonics, ice creams, lipsticks, bath salts, costumes that glowed in the dark, and so forth. Radium was once an additive in products like toothpaste, hair creams, and even food items due to its supposed curative powers. Such products soon fell out of vogue and were prohibited by authorities in many countries, after it was discovered they could have serious adverse health effects [1].
These are some of those crazy products from the 'Radium days':
