The United Nations has now confirmed that a radioactive plume will reach California by Friday (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/17/science/17plume.html?_r=1).

Fortunately, this is calculated to be a very small level of radiation that officially poses no real health risk -- but that won't be true if Fukushima goes into a fuel rod meltdown (which could happen in the next 2 days).

Because of all this, there has been a run on nearly all iodine sources across North America, Australia and Asia. Price-gouging is now rampant. Some people are getting really scared.

We're trying to bring some calm to this situation and assure people they can still get iodine from lots of natural sources such as seaweeds. And for minor exposures to radiation, there are cleansing superfoods such as chlorella and spirulina that have been used as far back as World War II to help clear radiation exposure and quickly flush radioactive substances from the body.

Today I've posted a full inventory status update on what we have right now at the NaturalNews Store that contains natural iodine or chlorella. See the full list here:

We are committed to helping those in need during this crisis. We do not engage in price gouging. A large percentage of all net proceeds from our radiation-related products is being donated to Japan through the Tzu Chi Foundation. (Our previous pledge of $5,000 is now much larger and we will announce the new donation pledges shortly...)

The world food supply is now threatened by a massive radiation release from the Fukushima nuclear power plant complex:
