What supplements needed for radiation exposure

Posted By Angie H. (Nd Concord, N.c.) on 10/14/2010

Hello, My thirteen year old son has had several scans this year, two on his head one set from his chiropractor and another xray to confirm scolieosis. Is there any reason to be worried about excess radiation?Are there any supplements to help my son? Thank you in advance for your help. This site is a GOD send.

It is best to avoid the accumulative effects of radiation when possible... Though keeping things in perspective.. You get the same amount of radiation from 30 hours of high altitude flying as you do in one chest x-ray. (not great news for pilots and stewards) Holy Basil has some protective effects against radiation... see here, http://www.holy-basil.com/6865.html

Please look into Chlorophyll, Broccoli, Mustard Greens, Darker green vegetables, Barley grass juice, Wheat-grass and Alfalfa. Most chlorophyll you can buy is made from Alfalfa. You can also find studies of these Green vegetables/grasses and rejuvenation of cells and tissues.
