What Does Smoking Cigarettes Have to Do With Radioactive Radon Gas?
Tobacco research has discovered thousands of risks from the tar and chemicals in cigarettes.

Polonium releases ionizing alpha radiation which is 20 times more harmful than either beta or gamma radiation when exposed to internal organs.
