Radon, gamma-irradiation, hormesis, TskaltuboAbstract
Concentration of Radon in Tskaltubo geothermal waters equals to 40-100 Bq/l, and when inhaled, this number does not exceed 37 Bq/m3. Inhaled concentration is characterized by minimal radioactivie parameters and is irrelevant to the characteristic parameters listed in the classification, what indicates that the healing properties of Tskaltubo mineral waters cannot be attributed only to the Radon concentration. During inhalation therapy, radiation exposure is formed by various salt ions and gas of mineral water, in conditions of high humidity and temperature. Furthermore, the activation of physiological-biochemical processes (Hormesis) not only dependents on the dose of radon absorbed by the body, but is the result of different complex factors joint action that require further research.
