[ RadSafe ] Re: Radiation deficiency remediation

[Bradshaw, Keith]

I think we've discussed this on here before.  The additional dose from
ingestion of potassium is likely to be very small.  It's just the dose as it
is "passing through".  Unless you are deficient in potassium to start with,
none of the additional potassium will be retained in the body.  Although
I've not calculated it, I suspect you'd make yourself very sick if you
attempted to ingest enough KCl to raise your radiation dose to these
"hormetic" levels.  Perhaps that's why you have "given up on KCL"?

My 3, 40 lb sacks of KCL for water softener ($9 each) give only a doubling
of background radiation (0.030mrad/hr) on contact. I have given KCL up as an
added source of radiation, although about as much comes to most of us from
the KCL already in our bodies as usual USA coast background, according to
Luckey's book.
