KI is a very poor idea unless you have actually been irradiated with radioactive iodine. You are better off using any chelating compound such as EDTA or even revastrol.

This is not to minimise the damage from Fuku- which is simply colossal. The important thing to understand is that damage increases or decreases to the square of the distance from the radioactive particle. One particle ingested is about as damaging as a million particles feet or yards away just floating around. I personally would avoid eating seafood from the North Pacific for, well, the rest of my life. And if you live anywhere in the Northern US, checking your food sources for radioactivity isn't a bad idea- especially things like milk or predatory fish, which can concentrate radioactive particles.


In any case, do not believe what the Media, Governments,or Corporations tell you. Do not trust anything you do not personally verify. And understand that there is no such thing as a "safe" increase in radiation levels- they go up, cancer rates go up, period.
