I actually had a very bad reaction with 12.5 mg of iodine. I had extreme kidney pain and HORRIBLE anxiety for about 3 days afterwards. Does that mean I'm one of the few that don't do well with iodine and possibly have Grave's or Hashimoto's?
Like this but really wish that it wasn't so slated towards the nuclear thing. Although, if that's what gets people curious and gets them to help themselves, then so be it.
It would be good to take strontium too as well as iodine. I take both iodine (50mg) and strontium (1.5gm) daily along with antioxidants (lipoic acid, C, NAC, E), magnesium, zinc/copper, iron, quercetin, curcumin, BCAA, DHEA, ginkgo, zeolite, chlorella, spirulina,ubiquinol, PQQ, DHA, creatine, B-complex, omega-3s, etc.. I need to find some cesium I guess. Anyway, the big problem is getting "hot" particles, nano-sized, lodged in the lungs. Then all bets are off.
The two forms of radioactive iodine that are set free at Fukushima have a half-life (the time until the they lose half their radiation) of 24 hours (iodine-133) and 8 days (iodine-131). By the time they reach the US they will have lost most of their radioactivity, no to mention that it will be heavily thinned out through the wind.
It is much more dangerous to blindly supplement high doses of iodide, that can harm your thyroid and wreak havoc with your hormones.
@Evilcyber u're forgetting about iodine-129;half life 15 millions years. as for iodine,u're body uses what it needs,and naturally flushes out any excess iodine which it doesn't need;it does not build up in the body,like Calcium for example & no one ever speaks of overdosing on Cal, which is far more dangerous. Dr.B says overdosing on WATER is more dangerous than overdosing on iodine, because it's *that* unlikely, and u would literally have to consume so much iodine to actually "overdose" on it.
I am not relieved that you are so sure that the USA is Safe. How about some answers to what is Real as the Japanese Crises unfolds. Dose rates, etc. Now going to part 2 and so on.
Could anyone recommend a high quality brand of vitamin C..I'm getting confused with finding the right Vit. C source since they apparently don't all work.

@xDaisyCharm I would ease into it and drink water and fats. Thats my best glancing advice.
You might also want to try fermenting orange juice with some sort of pro-biotic culture and add the iodine to it.

What about Lugol's - is that satisfactory as a supplement?
