Radioactive Comdoms 
If you needed “a cure for the living dead” or required “perpetual sunshine” between 1918-1928, you could take Radithor. It was a patent medicine whose active ingredient was radium isotopes. One man took so much his jaw had to be surgically removed.
Marie Curie’s discovery of radioactive elements caught the nation’s imagination. Radioactivity was viewed as a new kind of energy and was assumed to have healing powers.
Uranium ice cream 
Uranium ice cream is an example of how enthusiastic people were about radioactivity in the early days, being named to celebrate a local discovery of Uranium ore.
There is no record of its colour or taste, and it does not appear to have been on sale outside the West Coast.
Uranium Homeopathic Medicine 
Ironically, since homeopathic dilutions are pure water, this is possibly the only really safe item in this list.
This is an empty 1 dram vial of uranium metallicum homeopathic medication produced by Boericke & Tafel. Given the CM designation, it would be considered to have a very high potency. The CM refers to a 100M dilution where the M indicates a dilution of 1 : 1,000.
Like most homeopathic medications, it is intended to treat a wide variety of symptoms. Too many to list here.
Uranium containing homeopathic medications such as uranium nitricum and uranium aceticum are available today.
Tho-Radia Radium beauty cream 
The history of cosmetic creams is riddled with disaster. From lead face-whitening which caused Elizabeth I’s hair to fall out, sparking a 300 year, global, wig-wearing frenzy to blinding shackled bunny rabbits with beauty. This is no exception.
Why did people manufacture radium cosmetics? At the time of its discovery radium proclaimed a ‘miracle cure’ and hence a fashion fad for ‘beneficial’ radium products led to very bizarre creations such as ‘parfum atomique’, radium bath products
‘for healthy skin’, radium razor blades etc.
Ward’s Radium Ore Healing Pad 
“A magic relief in cases of constipation, gout, rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, coughing at night, pains anywhere internally.
The product brochure that I have doesn’t even include a company identification. Instead, it is credited to “V. C. Ward, Discoverer, Shubrick Hotel, Salt Lake City, Utah.” The pad itself reads “V. C. Ward, Mfgr., Los Angeles.” The estimated date of manufacture, 1910 to 1915, is based on the fact that the testimonial letters cited in the brochure are all dated 1913.
Advertised as being completely natural because the pad contained pure unrefined Radium ore.The pad is radioactive, no question about that.
Periodic Table Sample Box with Uranium 
These very nice periodic table kits include actual samples of all non gaseous naturally occurring elements including uranium ore.
The elements was safely sealed in individual specimen tubes which can be removed from the box for close observation.
The Element Collection was designed for schools, colleges, universities
and for everyone interested in the natural world.
