Strange, because it wouldn’t do most people any good.

UN anti-nuke source, claims of a study of polar bears in the middle of winter... Did this site suddenly get invaded by Mother Jones??

To my knowledge there is only one “more effective” anti-radiation medicine, but it has only been used in limited experimentation.

“Ionizing” radiation penetrates the cell walls in our bodies and creates “free radicals”, chemicals that damage or kill our cells. The more cells damaged or killed, the sicker you get.

Some ingenious individual got the idea that if there was some way to get the common food preservatives BHA and BHT into our cells, they would neutralize the free radicals and protect the cells. But this normally can’t happen because our cell membranes won’t let BHA and BHT through.

Enter nanotechnology. Tiny particles of matter so small that they can easily enter our cells, all over the body. And the cell membranes do not block them out. And even at their small size, they are hollow, and can be filled with BHA and BHT.

Of course there are limits to how much radiation such a person can get, but this technique suggests that at least their resistance to radiation can be increased.

how about magic-decoder rings, got plenty of those?

Here's the list of the government stock piles of late:

Caskets

Ammo

MREs and/or freeze dried foods

Bulletproof booths

Anti-Radiation pills

Rat traps

Add to the list.

A few hours ago there was a 4.7 earthquake 15 miles from Fukushima. Not sure what is holding the damned thing together. Also, an earthquake "swarm" has befallen the area the last few days. This can't be good. Constant shaking, rolling, vibrating.

If this puppy goes, people won't be worrying about their thyroids....

Well, when you want to learn about reality, you go to the US military. When you want to learn about Alice in Wonderland Fairy Tales, you got to the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Wonder if it was Vice Admiral Alan Thompson who ordered the Iodide ?

Michael Rivero, welcome back dude!!!!

With crazy mullahs and foreign commies building and mounting nukes, our military forces should stock up for putting them down. With so many crazy nations having nukes, the chances of some kooky leader of a developing country starting a nuclear exchange will be higher than the chances were during the Cold War.

There is no such thing as an “Anti Radiation Pill”.

Potassium iodide pills can protect the thyroid from radioactive iodine. They do this by “flooding” the thyroid with iodine so that it does not take up the radioactive iodine.

The pills will ONLY protect your thyroid and ONLY from radioactive iodine. And are only effective for about 24 hours.

To be really effective they need to be taken before exposure.

They do NOT protect you from radiation.

“This on top of a stark warning by a former UN adviser that the world could literally be destroyed by Fukushima. “

No hype there!!!
