KI, potassium iodide

[Guest guest]

Apparently the safety of Iodine has to do if the radiation emitted is

iodine and not Cesium or some other—if there is some other.? Today I heard

that

taking Potassium Iodide before the threat is close can negate its benefits.

Again, a question mark for me. As for the Miso soup which we know is

beneficial by itself and without a Radiation threat, perhaps it doesn’t have

the

same negating effect, if there is one, as does Potassium Iodide if taken

when no threat exists.

The problem is that even the experts are all over the place

Joe,

As it stands, pharmacies and online sites are sold out of Potassium

Iodide. That being said, the KI protects the thyroid, but not the rest of the

body.

In the news there is much attention being paid to radioactive nuclear

exposure—revisiting disasters at Three Mile Island and Chernobyl.

Did you know that clinoptilolite zeolite was used at Three Mile Island to

clean up radioactive wastes long before Chernobyl ever happened?

As to Chernobyl, more than 500,000 tons of zeolite was dumped (via

helicopter) to absorb radioactive chemicals and other harmful toxins that were

released during the disaster. In addition, cattle were fed zeolite to help

keep radioactive ions out of milk, and zeolite was baked into cookies/biscuits

(for children) and encapsulated into pills (for adults) to help minimize

the contamination in humans.

Since Chernobyl, zeolite has been integrated into use at other nuclear

plants (across the U.S. and Britain) as well as municipal water treatment

facilities (to reduce the ammonium ion concentration.)

With the above in mind consider this, if the impact of nuclear disaster

was minimized and future exposure to harmful chemicals might be reduced by

the use of raw zeolite, imagine the health assurance potential of a

micronized, activated Zeolite!

For more information, check out the PDF attached “La Roca Magica: Uses of

Natural Zeolites in Agriculture and Industry,†(presented at the 1998

National Academy of Sciences colloquium ‘‘Geology, Mineralogy, and Human

Welfare,’’ and later printed in the Proceedings of the National Academy of

Sciences.) It’s full of great information regarding the extensive application

for zeolite, but the real eye opener is found on page 4 (3466) in the section

appropriately called Nuclear Waste & Fallout.

Here is a link to the same article.

I use NCD zeolite every day, anyway, for prevention, as I have a strong

family history of cancer. I am bumping up the amount I am taking, just in

case, because I don't believe what they say about only small amounts getting

to this country.

Here is a link for getting the NCD zeolite - the only true micronized and

cleansed zeolite.
