After Willowley and I spending $80 and ordering the Echinacea Symposium (that was supposed to be full of all the trials, results & evidence of using Echinacea at Chernobyl and showing how effective it was)...I finally received the "Echinacea Symposium" binder.
It was full of all the amazing credentials and the 'Curriculum Vitae' of all the presenters (impressive) and all of the outlines of what they were going to present. The rest was nothing but copies of the varioius Power Point slides, but contained NOTHING of the actual data that was presented along with the slides. There were all kinds of 'outlines' and 'general topics' on the copies of all the Power Point shots, but as you know - when presenting a PowerPoint presentation, the "meat" and all of the details are in what is said along with them, not just the 'outline' that is presented on each slide.
So, I sent it back to AHPA for a refund :( And yeah, I'm none too pleased :( :( :(
What we know that Echinacea DOES restore cellular damage from radiation exposure (even the allopaths know this, as you can see in these links): Biological effects (ionizing radiation) of Echinacea purpurea on human ... [Arh Hig Rada Toksikol. 2009] - PubMed result
We know that saturating the thyroid with SSKI prevents the thyroid from absorbing radioactive iodine...but that's a FAR cry from protecting the rest of the body and all our cells.
And even though we don't know the "how or why of it all", we do know this information was presented by a very valid researching doctor:
Dr. Victoriya F. Pochernyayeva, a leading researcher from Ukraine and the former Soviet Union, will review the results of her long-term studies including:
Folks, I do not want to come across as a 'fear monger', nor do I want you to thinking I'm "hawking Echinacea" to increase sales (we sell plenty of Echinacea already!)...but this situation IS serious and it's definitely getting WORSE (and it's getting worse very quickly)!
As the dreadful truth about the Fukushima catastrophe slowly unfolds, it turns out this disaster is far worse than we were ever told. For starters, the total radiation ultimately released from Fukushima may soon surpass that of Chernobyl. Reactors No. 2 and 3 are still out of control, with pumps not working and radiation levels too high to allow workers to even function there. (So how are they supposed to repair the coolant pumps, anyway?) Here's the breakdown of the latest news from Fukushima, including a summary of the status of all six reactors: I've also posted a 7-minute video news update on the Fukushima incident at YouTube, viewable here:

Detectable amounts of radiation from Fukushima have now reached both Florida and the Carolinas:

The Fukushima situation is unfortunately looking like it's not going to be resolved in weeks or months, but rather years. And in the mean time, radiation keeps leaking (from Reactor No. 2 at the moment) while the nuke plant engineers are running out of space to dump all the radioactive water from the cooling tanks! Radiation levels in the water there are now 100,000 times higher than normal (confirmed). Here's the latest on Fukushima, including a confirmed fact that radioactive fallout has now been detected in Massachusetts: We are all going to be exposed to cell-mutating/killing radiation from this, and the exposure is NOT going to be over in a few weeks/months. There are many people on this forum that have made their own Echinacea tincture, and for those that have I strongly encourage you to be taking (at least) several teaspoons daily. If you have children, this is essential. If you don't have a supply of your own yet, PLEASE get some to use until you can get yours made. You can get it from us here: http://marketplaceadvisor.channeladvisor.com/StoreFrontProfiles/deluxeSFshop.... But if you don't want to get it from us, get it from Dr. Schulze, Health Freedom Resources or from Herb Pharm. It is so much easier to prevent radiation damage to our body than it is to undo it. Be sure to check out additional options in this post/thread: http://curezone.com/forums/am.asp?i=1782725#i1...and get Echinacea in you every day! (something I've done daily for years anyway...being 'cold & flu free' for almost 10 years is a wonderful side-effect :) Take care of yourselves and loved ones!!! Uny

Joe, I can offer you my opinion, but it is only an opinion. I am no expert and not even close to one. However, I am doing a ton of research right now for some articles I have been requested to write. I am looking for all the natural alternatives for radiation exposure I can find. Doing so has me currently believing that it is OK for people living in the US to maintain a normal, healthy lifestyle right now.
What I understand to be true- for today- is that the US is still "safe" as far as radiation levels go. Yes, it does appear that radiation levels have increased all over the US. Yes, it does appear that it would be a great idea to be taking Superfood, echinacea, and using a good colon product like IF 1 and 2. My research is telling me that the herbs in those three products- Superfood, echinacea tincture, and IF1/2 are "enough" for Americans at the moment. Of course, you would want to make sure you are drinking pure water and scrubbing your produce well.
An interesting note from Dr. Schulze's blog is that during Chernobyl, abnormally high levels of radiation were found in dairy products. I don't know if Dr. Schulze means commercial dairy or local raw farm dairy. However, Dr. Schulze followers do not use any dairy, so the point may be moot.
It does seem like many people are choosing to stay indoors, somehow waiting for it all to go away. *sigh* People, the half life of radioactive materials is around the 20K year mark. While the radiation levels around the damaged Japanese nuclear power plant will dissipate and level out, that radioactive material will not go away. It will blanket the planet's atmosphere, water, land, plants, animals, and people. It has the potential of mutating the DNA of every living being on Earth and causing die-off of any number of species. The most vulnerable are our young and unborn.
When we read "what do do" articles on the internet, please try to discern where the source comes from. If anyone lives in Japan or near the coast of Japan, then definitely, start taking daily doses of SSKI along with other measures to keep safe. For now, at least, if you live in the US (or Europe), following good health practices, keeping a healthy bowel program (like Uny's) that contains bentonite clay and apple pectin, and adding echinacea tincture and superfoods which contain sea vegetables and simple plants like dulse, chlorella, and spirulina to the diet should suffice.
Go to the gym, Joe.
