Belgians To Get Iodine Pills ' In Case of Nuclear Accident

Iodine pills

NOTE: Iodine pills are not a protection against radiation. The "feel good measure" of offering iodine in potassium tablets simply causes the body to "fill its iodine tank with non-radioactive iodine," thus preventing the destruction and loss of the pancreas, a vital body organ.

All nuclear and atomic bombs and nuclear reactors produce large quantities of radioactive iodine. The human body demands iodine continuously unless it has sufficient iodine to fill the body's demand for the nutrient. The body does not distinguish radioactive from non-radioactive iodine and so will draw iodine from either source so long as the body needs iodine.

The potassium iodine pills are meant to supply enough non-radioactive iodine so as to fill the bodies need for iodine so that the pancreas will not need any more iodine and so will not absorb the radioactive form which will cause the destruction of the soft tissue and loss of the pancreas, usually by cancer.

What the body takes up (absorbs) are particles, scientifically labeled, "isotopes." There are literally hundreds of dangerously radioactive isotopes produced in atom and nuclear (hydrogen) bomb explosions and in nuclear reactors during what's called the "frisson process." None of those isotopes are found anywhere in nature. They are all man made via man made fission in bombs (weapons) and nuclear reactors.

Perhaps you have heard of radioactive cesium, another commonly mentioned radioactive isotope that is absorbed into the bodies soft tissues like the muscles of the heart and other soft tissues like the brain, where through genetic mutations, it brings on cancers.

In order to prevent the body from absorbing other highly dangerous radioactive, man made, isotopes, all of the elements that are the base for the radioactive isotopes need to be isolated, the ways and how much of each isotope is taken up by the body and a safe and effective way needs
to be discovered to block each radioactive isotope from being taken up by the body while assuring no loss of necessary nutrients like iodine.

This accomplished would indeed be man's first step on the road out of the radioactive quagmire that has been constructed around us to kill us off in only a few generations and before a plurality of humans figure all of this out and organize to do something about it. We are not alone here either. We share a symbiotic relationship with all the flora and fauna that surround us and they must survive as well.
While the pills have always been a scam to divert attention from the most harm being done by the nuclear industry with their radiation spewing bombs and the other nuclear devices like depleted uranium munitions as a method of targeted genocide and the extremely hazardous method of boiling water to produce high temperature steam in nuclear power plants like Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, Fukushima and the dozens other anti-life death traps set strategically around the world, all given to us by the wold's self appointed "elite."

Brussels (AFP) - Belgium is to provide iodine pills to its entire population of around 11 million people to protect against radioactivity in case of a nuclear accident, the health minister was quoted as saying Thursday.

The move comes as Belgium faces growing pressure from neighbouring Germany to shutter two ageing nuclear power plants near their border due to concerns over their safety.

Iodine pills, which help reduce radiation build-up in the thyroid gland, had previously only been given to people living within 20 kilometres (14 miles) of the Tihange and Doelnuclear plants.

Health Minister Maggie De Block was quoted by La Libre Belgique newspaper as telling parliament that the range had now been expanded to 100 kilometres (60 miles), effectively covering the whole country.

The health ministry did not immediately respond to AFP when asked to comment.

The head of Belgium's French-speaking Green party, Jean-Marc Nollet, backed the measures but added that "just because everyone will get these pills doesn't mean there is no longer any nuclear risk," La Libre reported.

Belgium's creaking nuclear plants have been causing safety concerns for some time after a series of problems ranging from leaks to cracks and an unsolved sabotage incident.

Last week Germany asked that the 40-year-old Tihange 2 and Doel 3 reactors be turned off "until the resolution of outstanding security issues".

The reactor pressure vessels at both sites have shown signs of metal degradation, raising fears about their safety. They were temporarily closed but resumed service last December.

Belgium's official nuclear safety agency (AFCN) rejected the German request, saying the two plants "respond to the strictest possible safety requirements."
