Potassium Iodide is a salt which when taken in the proper amounts, can block the uptake of radioactive iodine. It is frequently marketed in tablets, under the name of Iosat. Administering Iosat can be very beneficial because the thyroid can be quite vulnerable to radioactive iodine in a radiologic emergency, and because this strategy can benefit us in the prevention of later thyroid cancer.

You are doing yourself a HUGE justice taking iodoral :) I take 50mg/day.
Be sure you’re taking selenium, magnesium, vitamin C and salt along with it as this is the protocol for iodine.

FTA: Many of us have chosen to keep an adequate supply of potassium iodide tablets for potential radiologic emergency in advance of such an occurance. This way, we sidestep distribution difficulties in a time in which our governmental and public health authorities will be most occupied. The tablets being sold now, most often have an expiration date of 2017. Those with small children, or with elderly family members may wish to consider buying the liquid preparation of this drug. The liquid version of this drug is said to expire in five years and is marketed as Thyro-Shield. In the past, I have purchased thyroid protective medication in advance of a radiologic emergency from the following sources:
