Hello all. This will be a very quick post as I have just seen that potassium iodide – which can HELP protect from the absorption of radiation in certain cases – is selling out everywhere and prices are skyrocketing.
Right now on Amazon, I have found one brand that is available. The dosage is 65mg so you would have to double that to get the recommended dosage for saturating your thyroid. Understand – the consumption of potassium iodide is for short-term events and should be used for an emergency only. Do your due diligence and perform research on why you would take it and when and for how long.
This is the item that is available as of this writing:

Dose:
Adults over 18 years
2 tablets (whole or crushed) every day (130 mg)
Children over 12 years to 18 years who weigh at least 150 pounds
2 tablets (whole or crushed) every day (130 mg)
Children over 12 years to 18 years who weigh less than 150 pounds
1 tablet (whole or crushed) or 8 teaspoons every day (65 mg)
Children over 3 years to 12 years
1 tablet (whole or crushed) or 8 teaspoons every day (65 mg)
Children over 1 month to 3 years
4 teaspoons every day (32.5 mg)
Babies at birth to 1 month
2 teaspoons every day (16.25 mg)
Tablets can be crushed and mixed in many liquids. To take the tablet in liquid solution, use dosing directions under Making a Potassium Iodide Liquid Mixture.
Take KI every day (every 24 hours) as directed by public officials. Do not take more than 1 dose in 24 hours. More will not help you. Too much medicine may increase the chances of side effects.
Making a Potassium Iodide Liquid Mixture:
1. Put one 65 mg KI tablet into a small bowl and grind it into a fine powder using the back of a metal teaspoon against the inside of the bowl. The powder should not have any large pieces.
2. Add 4 teaspoons of water to the crushed KI powder in the bowl and mix until the KI powder is dissolved in the water.
3. Take the KI water mixture solution made in step 2 and mix it with 4 teaspoons of low fat white or chocolate milk, orange juice, flat soda, raspberry syrup, or infant formula.
4. The KI liquid mixture will keep for up to 7 days in the refrigerator. It is recommended that the KI liquid mixtures be prepared weekly. Throw away unused portions.
The amount of KI (65 mg tablet) in the drink when mixed as described above is 8.125 mg per teaspoon. The number of teaspoons of the drink to give your child depends on your child’s age as described in the following table:
| Child’s Age | Give your child this amount in teaspoons |
| Over 12 to 18 years old who weigh less than 150 pounds | 8 teaspoons will give you a 65 mg dose |
| Over 3 to 12 years old | 8 teaspoons will give you a 65 mg dose |
| Over 1 month to 3 years old | 4 teaspoons will give you a 32.5 mg dose |
| Birth to 1 month | 2 teaspoons will give you a 16.25 mg dose |
Note: This is the amount to give your child for one single dose in teaspoons (not tablespoons). You should give your child one dose each day as recommended by the public officials.

I remember that picture from back when I was ordering my copies from FEMA back in the 80s
I already have some but I am not sure if it is still viable-will try to find out what the shelf life is. At this point I am wondering how effective it will be. The thought of nuclear exposure is so intense.
Thinking of filling up all the extra gas cans as the prices will continue to rise unless Biden comes to his senses which is not likely.
With the trucker protest coming it may be prudent to keep on stocking up with everything. Has anyone heard when that will happen?

Rawles says that the pills are risky for those over 50 years old.
Perhaps not quite as effective, but better than nothing in a pinch, is Sea Kelp. Research it.
One of our suppliers of Sodium Iodide sent the following message a couple of weeks ago. It’s still not available.
“Hello,
Due to current events, the manufacturer of our potassium iodide tablets (FAIT) is reserving all remaining current inventory for the Defense Logistics Agency. The manufacturer is currently creating new inventory and we are one of the companies at the top of the list to receive more once available (est. 3-4 weeks). We are sorry for this inconvenience and will notify once available.
Best regards,”
Make of it what you will. I agree with Rourke, we won’t get into a nuclear exchange. Unless, the elites who run this country and don’t care about ‘collateral damage’ find it’s the best way to advance their agenda.
