supply poisoned along Pacific Coast
Sunday, July 14, 2013 by: Carolanne Wright
(NaturalNews) If you live on the West Coast of the U.S. or Canada, you may want to reconsider your water filtration
method as well as how you select and prepare food. Evidently, the
nightmare of Fukushima is far from over – another 16 million years to be
exact. Due to the astonishingly long half-life of iodine-129, the whole
ecosystem of the Pacific Coast will be contaminated pretty much
forever.
Lifespan of radioactive isotopes and other trivia
Among
other dangerous radioactive isotopes released from the Fukushima
meltdown, iodine-129 also spewed forth from the damaged reactor.
Incredibly, this isotope has a half-life of 16 million years.
Essentially, the entire West Coast food supply of North America will be
contaminated with radiation for unlimited generations. We have
fundamentally entered into a new way of life – one that takes a giant
leap toward illness, disease and heightened mortality rates.
Consider
the water supply. Not only does it provide drinking water for humans and
animals, but it also irrigates crops. When the supply is contaminated,
it influences everything. According to a public health statement made by
the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR):
“Iodine in
the oceans enters the air from sea spray or as iodine gases. Once in
the air, iodine can combine with water or with particles in the air and
can enter the soil and surface water, or land on vegetation when these
particles fall to the ground or when it rains. Iodine can remain in soil
for a long time because it combines with organic material in the soil.
It can also be taken up by plants that grow in the soil. Cows or other
animals that eat these plants will take up the iodine in the plants. Iodine that enters surface water can reenter the air as iodine gases.”
The
question is, does radioactive iodine spread in the same manner as its
natural counterpart? Unfortunately, the answer is an unequivocal “yes.”
The agency continues:
“Radioactive
iodine also forms naturally from chemical reactions high in the
atmosphere. Most radioactive forms of iodine change very quickly
(seconds to days) to stable elements that are not radioactive. However,
one form, 129I, changes very slowly (millions of years), and its levels
build up in the environment.”
Before
packing up and relocating to Antarctica, a few options are available
that can drastically reduce exposure to these harmful elements.
Protect and detoxify
Here are several precautions that can help shield individuals from a radioactive food supply:
- View all fish and crustaceans from the Pacific Ocean as tainted.
- Always use filtered water for cooking and drinking.
- Pay attention to the origin of dairy.
- Wash any produce thoroughly with natural soap and rinse with purified water.
- Avoid meat from contaminated regions (including wild game).
Another level of defense is explained in the article, Remove radiation from your produce with Calcium Bentonite Clay:
“You can
add Calcium Bentonite Clay to your milk and drinking water if you’re
concerned about the possibility of contamination there as well. Add
approximately 1 ounce of liquid Calcium
Bentonite Clay to a gallon of organic raw milk or water. Some people
prefer to let the clay settle to the bottom of the liquid and discard
that portion, while others prefer to shake it up and drink them
together. Either is fine.”
All in
all, it truly is a sad state of affairs when the idea of donning a
hazmat suit simply to handle our food is not as outrageous as it once
had been.
