In the case of a nuclear event, you need to be ready. Stock the Ready Hour Potassium Iodide Anti-Radiation Tablets to help block your thyroid during a nuclear radiation emergency. According to the CDC, in some radiation emergencies (usually nuclear power plant accidents), radioactive iodine may be released into the environment and enter the body through breathing or eating. The thyroid is a gland in the neck that plays an important role in many body functions. When the thyroid absorbs high levels of radioactive iodine, it can increase the risk of thyroid cancer in infants, children, and young adults many years after exposure. Potassium Iodide is also absorbed by the thyroid and when it's taken, the thyroid is saturated with "good iodine" and cannot absorb the radioactive iodine. For the potassium iodide to work, it must be taken before or shortly after exposure to the radioactive iodine. Animals or pets can take Potassium Iodide as well. This is a 60-count bottle of 130 mg tablets.
