Agreed. I've stocked them for years. My preference is for potassium iodate, not iodide.

I purcahsed the iodide tablets; why do you prefer the iodate? Is it more effective?

A little better for long term stability, less hygroscopic, been used for anti-rad for a longer time (Iodide pills were much harder to find than Iodate pills when I made my purchase, and I didn't want to have to deal with the crystalline iodide in an emergency situation). I immagine that either will work just as well. The idea, as I understand it, is to load the thyroid with iodine to the max so that it will not absorb radioactive iodine in a nuclear emergency situation.

Where can I purchase the pills?
