In a previous article for Wake Up World I talked about sunflower seeds and their ability to help remove radiation.  It has been shown that sunflowers absorb heavy metals and so have been used extensively near Chernobyl and more recently Fukushima.  It is said that Sunflower can remove 95% of the radiation in soil in 20 days where it would normally take about 30 years until radiation levels were reduced to a “safe” level.

Fortunately we have other foods we can utilise as well.

Our bodies are 50-80% water (depending on age and weight) and they mimic the ocean which has over 100 minerals composed of 80 chemical elements. Well, those are the ones we know of.  As scientists continue their research we are bound to find many yet unnamed beneficial elements.

Vegetables from the ocean also have an incredible amount of minerals. High amounts of vitamins C and E are present as well as B vitamins, iron, calcium and a high percentage of fibre. In fact, the carbohydrates in sea vegetables will easily pass through your digestive system effectively cleansing your intestines. There have been studies that  have shown seaweeds ability to remove up to 90 percent of radioactive strontium 90 from the intestinal tract. (S.C. Skoryna et al, “Intestinal Absorption of Radioactive Strontium,” Canadian Medical Association Journal 191, 1964) The sodium alginate found in sea plants will actually chelate the remaining amount out of the bone structure. This is good news for dealing with present and past toxic contamination.

In our modern world we are constantly bombarded by radiation. It is a concern brought up by many when medical diagnostics such as x-rays and CAT scans are used but of even greater concern is the radiation from our computer monitors and mobile phones since we use them continuously throughout the day every day.
