Due to the nuclear crisis in Japan we are getting lots of calls and emails asking about what can be done to protect oneself from radiation. One strategy is iodine supplementation. Iodine can help protect the thyroid and glandular system against damage from radiation. The idea is that you want your thyroid to have plenty of non-radioactive iodine, so that it will not absorb any of the radioactive iodine in the environment. There are many food sources of iodine, some of which are:

Here is a list of foods we carry that contain iodine or can help the body protect against radiation damage:

Dulse

Nori

Sea lettuce

Angstrom Iodine

Marine Phytoplankton

Red Marine Algae

Pure Klamath Crystals

Spirulina

Kelp and Kelp Powder

Milk Thistle Seeds

Chaga Mushroom

Sun Is Shining Green Superfood

Zeolites

Maca

Garlic

Reishi Mushroom

We are sending all of our thoughts and prayers out to everyone affected by the tragic earthquake, tsunami and now possible nuclear disaster. Be safe everyone!
