How to Protect Yourself / Children from the Japanese Nuclear Plant Fallout
Dear SKY readers,My uncle sent this email to me this morning, and I felt the information to be timely and helpful especially for those in Hawaii. We already know to eat a healthy diet, now our lives depend on it even more!I just did some research on the fallout from the Japanese Nuke Plant Accident due to the earthquake. First of all, don’t get too worried. It is those close to the plant that should be real worried. Because of upper atmosphere wind dispersion, we are pretty safe in the US. The gamma radiation has a very short life. Nonetheless, the next 2 to 5 days, there will be radioactive iodine circling the globe.
To take precaution, eat vegetables and fruits high in iodide. Natural Iodide will not allow the nuclear particles to be absorbed into the thyroid (thus preventing cancer down the road). Also, take Potassium Iodide tablets. Children are most in need of natural iodide.
The best fruits and vegetables for high iodide are:
Pineapples
Coconuts
Strawberries
Apricots
Soy products
Spinach
There is more info on line.
Let the nieces and nephews know, too. Tell them not to overreact, but to just take precautions.
Have a good St. Patrick’s Day!

From the Kauai MuseLetter...
The Hawaiians have an important message for displaced native peoples everywhere - don't give up, don't give in, Unite, be one and take the upper hand in mental attitude. As a person of partial indigenous blood, I feel disconnected from my tribe of heritage, yet strongly pulled to Hawaiian soil. I will lend my energy, intention and thoughts in support of Hawaiians
Please read up on this site and if you care...then participate. Mahalo.
