          Comments about Life Extension Potassium Iodide, 130 mg 14 tablets:

          When the nuclear disaster occurred in Japan,it reinforced my wisdom in keeping this product on hand. I bought it originally because I'm near several nucleur plants. Without this product, should one start leaking radiation, I would feel totally helpless. There's nothing else that I know of that would help in such an emergency.

          Comments about Life Extension Potassium Iodide, 130 mg 14 tablets:

          This is for radiation emergency only. It is like a life insurance policy. You hope you don't ever use it. It is not the usual supplement.
          The primary danger is the with the Japanese nuclear plant damaged by the earthquake. Another small earthquake in that area could be disasterous to North America.
          You may wish to research all of this.

              i'VE BEEN USING LE SUPLEMMENTS FOR MANY MANY YEARS. DIFFICULT TO BEAT THEIR PRICES AND MOST IMPORTANTLY THEIR QUIALITY AND SUPPORT TOWARDS HEALTH

              THEY CARRY, OUT OF THE WORLD PRODUCTS THAT ARE FOCUSED FOR MANY CONDITIONS.

              STRONGLY RECOMMEND LE PRODUCTS

              BESIDES I CONSIDER LE AS THE SPARTANS WARRIORS AGAINST INDIVIDUALS OR INSTITUTIONS WHO LIKE TO KEEP PEOPLE ON THE IGNORANCE FIELD

                I like the way Life Extension packages this product. Because the doseage is so high, you only need to take 1 per day as opposed to others in which you need to take 4 per day. And, I like that it is easily broken in half for a child's doseage. Good job, Life Extension!

                  Comments about Life Extension Potassium Iodide, 130 mg 14 tablets:

                  As the Fukushima nuclear power plant and Chernobyl incidents have shown us in the past, disasters can strike at any time. Having potassium iodide on hand can prevent disaster from occuring in your life. What better "life insurance" for you and your precious family members than this inexpensive product with a shelf life of 6-7 years? If you wait until officials announce that you need it, what are your chances of having it on time for your family? There is NO EXCUSE to not have adequate amounts of this CRITICAL product on hand.

                  I actually haven't used product yet. The radiation wasn't high enough in my area due to Japans problems Life extension was extremely easy to deal with. Fast shipping and very nice people to speak too. I obtained medical information before placing my order.
