"...quote from the article above is just plain untrue:"Potassium iodide can protect the thyroid by saturating it with normal iodine. People in Japan have been advised to take it." An e-mail I received just today from the US embassy in Tokyo states: "Health experts say that changing the water source for infants from tap water to bottled water should be adequate protection from exposure to radioactive iodine. No additional medication, such as potassium iodide (KI), is necessary at this time. Taking KI when it is not needed can harm a person’s health."
