Alternative Energy HQ solar power for homes, wind energy, and bio fuel issues
The horrific Japanese disaster and nuclear power plant failures have many of us around the world worried about fallout. Personally the more the TV commentators tells us there is nothing to worry about the more I worry because they are just regurgitating what they are fed by authorities. Let us see what really happens. So to that point we should all do something to protect ourselves from exposure to radiation.
This post addresses that and I wanted to share it with you. Foods we can eat to help protect us.
The disastrous chain of events precipitated by the 9.0 magnitude earthquake and subsequent Tsunami that struck Japan has raised concern for the possible ramifications of radiation carried across the pacific on wind currents.
In the aftermath of the largest earthquake in to hit Japan in history, four of the six nuclear reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station are still in various stages of meltdown and continue to deteriorate.
According to the New York Times, even the best case scenario could mean that radioactive release of steam from the crippled plants could go on for weeks, months or even years.1
People who eat miso regularly may be up to five times more resistant to radiation than those who do not eat miso. That is the conclusion of a team of researchers at Hiroshima University’s atomic bomb radiation research center.2
Dr. Kazumitsu Watanabe, professor of cancer and radiation research investigated the radioprotective effect of miso, a fermented soy product, by testing small intestine cells of lab mice. These cells absorb nutrients and are particularly sensitive to radiation, which can easily destroy these cells.
