"Some investigators have attributed the increase to environmental radiation from sources such as nuclear power plants. However, the report suggests that the real reason for the higher rates may be "increased detection of subclinical disease." "New tests are available to detect abnormalities that we never saw in the past," says the coauthor of the national report, Dr. Louise Davies, an assistant professor of surgery at Dartmouth Medical School. Ultrasound scans and needle biopsies can detect nodules as small as 2 millimeters (mm), one-quarter of the size of a pencil eraser." - Bottom Line Health, Bottom Line's Health Breakthroughs 2007 (Get the book.)

"With the comtemporary concern over x-rays and other forms of environmental radiation, you should know that both miso and seaweed are said to act in the body to help rid it of radiation, heavy metals like lead and strontium, and other toxic substances. In Hiroshima after the bombings, one hospital which served miso every day to all its patients observed a much lower incidence of radiation sickness and death than in the general population or at other hospitals. Salt All these highly mineralized ocean products come from the salty sea, and are good sources for our daily salt needs." - Elson M. Haas, Staying Healthy With the Seasons (Get the book.)

"Nuclear Radiation The fifth big cancer-causing environmental factor of modern living is environmental radiation left over from nuclear testing and other bomb-related activities. There are many people who have filed lawsuits against the U.S. government for their exposure to nuclear radiation, and they call themselves "downwinders." These people lived in areas of the country that were downwind of nuclear testing done primarily in the 1950s and 1960s. Many of these downwinders have already died of cancer, or are currently fighting cancer as a result." - Tanya Harter Pierce, Outsmart Your Cancer: Alternative Non-Toxic Treatments That Work (Get the book.)
