In a way she’s actually not wrong. That’s what radiotherapy is. Focused nuclear radiation to heal cancer.
She doesn't have cancer though, she's perfectly healthy and is an "alternative medicine practitioner". She said she sleeps with a piece of thorium under her pillow.
Regardless of it being used for cancer treatment, nuclear radiation isn't good for the body in any way. Various forms of radiation (not just nuclear) are harmful, like getting too much sun.
Yikes!
