Guest guest Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 I just received this post from the Canary Club, a group that deals with hormones. It cautions about taking iodine: " Since we are all concerned about the recent disaster in Japan, this is a quick note to share with you what Dr. Shames said about the earthquake damage to the nuclear power plants in Japan and the potential health risk to people. Fortunately, the amount of radiation that would actually fall on California (or Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, Alaska, etc.) is currently very small. Too small to pose a serious health risk for right now. It is this concentrated amount of radioactive iodine in the area of the thyroid gland that raises the risk of radiation caused cancers. But, should everyone in countries far from Japan simply now start taking iodine pills? The answer is NO. Read the whole article here:http://cts.vresp.com/c/?canaryclub/9215bf5b25/296d059e48/a53a14db39 If they can stop the meltdown at Fukushima, there is virtually no real radiation risk in North America. That's the outcome we're all hoping and praying for. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
