Potassium Iodide
Potassium Iodide
(pill) will provide radiation protection in a nuclear disaster. A high
percentage of radioactive fallout is in the form of radioactive iodine.
When a cloud of radioactive iodine passes through a populated area,
the thyroid glands of those individuals exposed to the radiation concentrates
the radioactive iodine. The result is irreparable damage to the thyroid,
which can lead to cancer. Maintaining a supply
of potassium iodide is one of the least expensive, simplest steps you
can take to protect yourself and your family against the long-term consequences
of exposure to radiation. Potassium iodide provides enough safe iodine
to completely fill the thyroid's binding sites, blocking any radioactive
iodine from binding there. There is no other way to so quickly and completely
protect the thyroid gland, which is one of the organs most commonly
damaged by radioactive fallout. Life Extension has
developed a potassium iodide supplement that contains 130 milligrams
of potassium iodide, the dosage widely recommended for the blocking
of radioactive iodine and providing radiation protection in the event
of a nuclear disaster. Tablets are scored for easy breakage in the case
of any need for dosages smaller than 130 mg. Since the shelf
life of this product is virtually unlimited, you will only have to buy
it once. Dosage and use
Warning: Potassium iodide should not be used by people allergic to iodine. Caution:
