RADIATION ALERT: Japan Fallout Hits USA Hard! Protection Tips

We all live on one planet.  Earth.  What happens on the other side of the planet will effect us. This is ever more apparent with the current situation in Japan after the earthquake and subsequent tsunami earlier this year.  Now HIGH levels of radiation are swirling around the planet.  All of us are in this together. 

Seattle has radioactive hot particles in the air according to CNN.
Hot particles can lodge in your body (lungs, bone).  The average Seattleite is currently breathing  in 5-10 radioactive particles a day.   

To move radioactive elements from your body: 
1. Make sure you are ingesting enough iodine (See the Mayoclinic website for more info).
2.  Eating seaweed and iodized salt are ways to increase iodine. 
3. HEPA air purifiers are thought to remove radiation from the air.

Make sure to plant as many green plants as you can.  Plants are nature's air purifiers.  Over time they will help maintain air quality!

  2. Hi Joy,
    Thanks so much for your comment. I can't believe it is so far-reaching either! It clarifies for me how small this planet is and how each of us can make a difference.
