Radiation Readings in Fukushima Reactor Rise to Highest Since Crisis Began

14 iodine tablets on the black market – selling on Internet sites such as eBay, reached $540.

I don't like to be a speaker of doom but the reality of what is about to come is going to be here any moment so I have to say something. Those of us that have any sense of preparedness in us are reaching for iodine right now because we know that we are in the path of the radiation plume.

The effects of this radiation are being downplayed heavily by health and nuclear experts but we can almost be guaranteed that things are worse than we are being told. Two years ago I reminded everyone that most of the population was deficient in iodine and many of you wrote to me and said you were taking supplemental iodine because you were aware of this problem. GOOD FOR YOU! But what about the rest of the population who is most likely deficient? What effects will this radiation have on them?

I am very familiar with thyroid issues as I worked with hundreds of you who where hypo and hyperthyroid back in the day. I listened to countless stories of ill health due to low and high thyroid and they broke my heart every time I heard them. I had a whole web site dedicated to natural healing and coping with thyroid issues. I even dealt with my own thyroid problems after my second child was born, so I could relate to the those that suffer 100%.

Both HYPO and HYPERthyroid affect the quality of life so drastically that some who suffer feel like they are dying a slow death; they live with pain from fibromyalgia, they can barely get out of bed and the list goes on.

With so many cases of clinical hypothyroidism being underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed, as I sit here and type this I can only wonder how much sicker our population may become from this last blast. Years ago many experts said that the onslaught of thyroid problems in the US had to do with the down winds from Chernobyl as well as fluoridation in the water. So this new nuclear mess is just adding to an already sick situation.

If any of you are not taking iodine, you need to start taking it immediately, if you can find any. Iodine supplements are being sold out everywhere, and I read it is even being traded on the black market. The key is taking the iodine BEFORE you get exposed. 

We are in the end of days as we currently know it. Can you see it?

What we can surely see is how every one of us touch each other, no matter where we live. Even a country as far as Japan can affect us over in the US. All of us are connected and we can put up borders and blocks and protect ourselves all we want. In the end, though, we are all connected and what every country and person does, absolutely matters to every person and living thing on the planet we call Earth.
