Is Potassium Iodide safe for me and my children?
It's perfectly safe and has been used for decades by civilians and
military
personnel with no ill side-effects. It can be taken by children of
any age.
A complete FDA guidance information sheet is included with every order.
How
much do I take and when do I take it?
Adults take 2 tablets a day only during radiation exposure. Children
3 to 18 years old
(<155lbs) should take 1 tablet per day, age 1 month to 3 years
take 1/2 tablet per
day and birth through 1 month take 1/4 tablet.
What
is Potassium Iodide and how does it work?
Radioactive Iodine (radioiodine) is produced in nuclear explosions
and comes down in
fallout. If inhaled or ingested, it resides in the thyroid gland increasing
a risk of cancer.
Potassium Iodide harmlessly saturates the thyroid, blocking absorption
of radioiodine.
Is this the same as Potassium Iodate? THE ONLY FORM
EVER APPROVED BY THE FDA,
Potassium Iodide as found in Pro-KI is recommended over
Potassium Iodate by the World Health Organization because the
Iodate form can cause gastro intestinal irritation and discomfort.
Does ProKI have an expiration date
and how old is it?
This batch of Pro-KI was manufactured in 7/2002, That's less than
1 month old, and guarantees you the freshest supply available anywhere.
Expires on 7/2007, although if kept under proper conditions,
Pro-KI could last significantly longer.
ProKI Potassium Iodide:
Are You Prepared? Experts
agree that KI should be
readily available to the 40% of
the population living within 350
miles of a nuclear reactor. See a map of reactors

The
FDA has known for decades that taking potassium
iodide (KI) during a radiation emergency prevents cancer. Potassium
Iodide “Known to Cut Risk of Thyroid Cancer” -FDA
“Authorities have known for decades that taking potassium iodide
before or right after exposure to radioactive fallout can prevent
some ill effects, especially in young children, who are most
vulnerable to thyroid cancer.” "Considering its price,
it just seems like a no-brainer. We should have been doing this
a long time ago."
-David Lochbaum, nuclear expert at the Union
of Concerned Scientists. -Source Washington Post
The benefits of potassium iodide in the midst of a radiation
disaster are clear. -Source FDA
American Thyroid Association Endorses Potassium Iodide as “Essential”
for Preventing Radiation Related Cancer. “The American Thyroid
Association (ATA) endorses the use of potassium iodide (KI)
to protect people from absorbing radioactive iodine released
during nuclear emergencies. High levels of radioactive iodine
exposure can cause thyroid cancer, especially in babies and
children up to 18 years of age. KI reduces the risk of thyroid
cancer in exposed populations. ATA advocates KI as an essential
adjunct to evacuation, sheltering, and avoiding contaminated
food, milk, and water.” -American Thyroid Association
Nuclear Arms Race Accelerates
CIA shocked by 11 nuclear weapon tests conducted by
India & Pakistan
United
States Unprepared?
Unlike France, Poland & a
host of countries, the U.S.
has not stockpiled KI
Aging Nuclear Waste Stockpile
More than 77,000 tons stored
at 131 sites across 39 states nationwide
Mobile Chernobyl
To date, more than 2700 U.S. nuclear waste shipments have travelled
1.6 million miles by
rail & interstate highways
If taken 3-4 hrs after exposure, Pro-KI
potassium iodide protects against:
Nuclear Reactor Accidents - 40% of U.S.
population at risk
Terrorist Reactor Attacks - all U.S. reactors
vulnerable
Nuclear Weapons - majority of country affected
Nuclear Waste Accidents - transported on
U.S. highways
Radiation
Blocking Tablets - Potassium Iodide
Rad
Block
anti-radiation pills are taken for radiation protection in
the days and weeks
following exposure. Effectively blocks radiactive elements
from absorption into the
human body. These elements can be very dangerous, posibly
causing thyroid cancer
and other disease, making this an important
and easy addition to any preparedness kit.
Directions: Use as directed by physician. The FDA recommends
taking
Potassium Iodide (KI) immediately if exposure to dangerous
radiation
is possible (for example, if downwind from a nuclear reactor
disaster,
nuclear explosion, radiation hazard or near a so-called dirty
bomb)
2000 World Health Organization Dosage Guidelines:
Adults should take two tablets per day. Children age 3-12
take one
tablet daily, under 3 years old, 1/2 a tablet.
Best when taken with food or milk. 65mg tablets / 50mg iodine

Raditect
II Radiation Detector and Alarm RADITECT is an early warning radiation alarm designed to
let you know when
unnatural levels of radiation are present, much like a smoke
alarm. It will run for
years unattended, as it runs on its own internal long life battery,
until the alarm is
triggered by a release of radiation. The alarm will increase
in frequency as the
intensity of radiation increases. It reports radiation levels
as safe, moderate, or
high as well as other useful datal using an led display. The
user does not need to
understand and remember the units of radioactivity or be versed
in the principals
of nuclear science to use it. RADITECT is small and light enough
to take with you if
you need to evacuate the area. The smart alternative to a radiation
meter. More...
