What to do if your area becomes radioactive.
Radiation Poisoning
The nuclear reactor crisis in Japan was a red flag for many Americans who worry that a similar radiation catastrophe could happen in the U.S.
What can you do to help protect yourself and your family against radiation poisoning, if it ever comes to that?
IODINE: iodine tablets are important in cases of radiation poisoning because radioactive ions will bind to any iodine receptor sites that are vacant, and many people in the US are iodine deficient. iodine is particularly protective of the thyroid gland. You can paint liquid iodine on your skin, and it will be absorbed into your body. Some experts suggest painting it directly over the thyroid gland.
ANTIOXIDANT VITAMINS: radiation poisoning causes a cascade of free radicals in the body, which can wreak havoc with every organ. The most protective antioxidants are Vitamin C and Vitamin E.
ANTIOXIDENT NUTRIENTS: ALA (alpha lipoleic acid), selenium, and Co-enzyme Q10 are antioxidant substances that can help clean heavy metals from the body. ALA is especially beneficial in protecting the brain, liver, kidneys, spleen, and reproductive organs. Q10 is especially protective of the heart
