Guest guest Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 [deltaflyers3] I'm not rushing to take KI myself (although I'm not sure what would be the downside). Eating seaweed, other " super green foods " , and antioxidants ain't a bad idea in general, tho'. As you've indicated, and as indicated in the update I posted earlier, it (thankfully) doesn't look like there's anything to worry about over here at the present time. If there were a full meltdown (which I certainly hope DOESN'T happen), that could change. Meanwhile, it doesn't hurt to have some information. Here's some more: What you need to know about iodine http://www.naturalnews.com/031725_iodine_radiation.html Protocol for Nuclear Contamination: Iodine, Glutathione, Chelation, Clay, Baking Soda http://www.naturalnews.com/031728_nuclear_contamination_glutathione.html Precautionary and restorative measures to take in the event of radioactive contamination http://www.naturalnews.com/031727_radiation_contamination.html RB Posted by: " R Boudreau " hrhzbig@... hrhzbig Date: Wed Mar 16, 2011 2:22 pm ((PDT)) Nothing personal , but NOTE PLEASE: Public health officials in California are warning AGAINST taking potassium iodide as a preventative measure out of fear that radiation from Japan may reach the West Coast. http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2011/mar/15/health-officials-warn-against-tak\ ing-potassium-iod/ As the CDC states on it's website regard KI, " after a radiologic or nuclear event, local public health or emergency management officials will tell the public if KI or other protective actions are needed.

However, there is a lot of stuff going around on the internet and in the press that, IMO, is based on panicked misinformation that really just makes things worse. I'm certain that all of us on the Gulf Coast can relate to as well. My personal advice, for what it's worth, is to take everything you see and hear about this disaster with a grain of salt until you read a good analysis from an expert (or even more than one expert) you can trust. And then wait to see if they are shown to be wrong, which some of them will be. If you want to help, personally I suggest keeping your powder dry until you can be sure your assistance will go to the best place with the maximum impact. Just my 0.02 USD. ________________________________ From: " robert-blau@...

Though part of the radiation is expected to dissipate over the ocean, some estimates are forecasting radiation exposure levels of 750 RADS or more. By comparison, one chest X-ray is about 1/300 RADS and one CT-scan is 1 RAD. Following are several precautionary and restorative measures to take in the event of radioactive contamination. First and foremost is potassium iodine (KI). Potassium iodine binds to radioactive iodine and is cleared from the boy within 24-72 hours. It is by far the item most used for radiation poisoning. According to the USFDA guidelines, the following doses should be taken after likely internal contamination. *Adults, including breastfeeding women: 130 mg *Children between 3 and 18 years of age and less than 150 pounds: 65 mg *Children 150 pounds or more: 130 mg (regardless of age) *Infants and children between 1 month and 3 years old: 32 mg (whether nursing or not) *Nursing and non-nursing newborns from birth to 1 month old: 16 mg. Instead of waiting for nuclear fallout to arrive, it is a good idea to begin taking lesser preventive doses of iodine in order to have enough iodine circulating in the body to prevent radioactive iodine from binding internally. Estimates of how much preventive iodine to take generally vary from 6 to 50 mg of daily iodine. Note that the average Japanese consumes 13 mg of iodine daily, which is 100 times more than the average US resident. When fallout does occur, precautionary measures can help minimize exposure and ingestion of radioactive materials, including staying inside, keeping doors and windows closed and turning off air conditioners. If possible, cover garden vegetables and fruits ahead of time. If one must go outside, wear a face mask, change and wash clothes upon returning indoors and take showers. Once the fallout has passed, wear a mask and spray the entire property, including exposed vehicles, with a hose. Shower immediately after returning inside. Other suggested items for dealing with radioactive fallout: Take plenty of supplemental echinacea. Studies, included ones conducted after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, have shown that echinacea is excellent for preventing and restoring radiation damage. Use bentonite clay. Bentonite clay can be used for heavy metal detox as well as to remove radiation. Internal clays have been used for detoxification for hundreds of years. As with all clays, the more you use, the quicker you tend to detox and the longer the treatment the better. Eat sea vegetables. Studies dating to 1968 found that sea vegetables contained a polysaccharide substance, called sodium alginate, which selectively bound radioactive strontium and eliminated it from the body. Seaweeds are also rich in antioxidants that protect us from degenerative diseases such cancer as well as slow down the aging process. Eat an anti-radiation diet containing items such as: *Miso soup *Brassica vegetables and high beta carotene vegetables *Beans and lentils *Potassium, calcium and mineral rich foods *High nucleotide content foods to assist in cellular repair including spirulina, chlorella, algae, yeast, sardines, liver, anchovies and mackerel *Cod liver oil and olive oil *Avoid sugars, sweets and wheat *A good whole-food derived multivitamin/multimineral supplement Consume chlorophyll rich wheatgrass. Tests have indicated that a wheatgrass rich diet improves survival after exposure to radiation and that chlorophyll increases resistance to radiation. Oral sodium bicarbonite (baking soda) can diminish the severity of the changes produced by uranium in the kidneys. Take N-Acetyl cysteine or use coffee enemas to increase gulathione levels, which are decimated by exposure to radiation. Use marine phytoplankton to reduce the side effects of chemo and radiation Research indicates marine phytoplankton can protect against some of the noxious side effects of radiation.
