Episode 3-3
The Final Installment of an Investigation into the Damaging Affects of Cesium-137 on the Heart and Kidney
 

Welcome to the Nuclear World Network.  This is where you'll learn how to protect yourself from the fallout. We'll talk about how you can use the law of selective uptake to your advantage, so you can stay vibrant and healthy in years to come. You can find links to the articles I mention over at nuclearworld.net/3-3 (http://nuclearworld.net/3-3). Thank you for taking the time to tune it.

 
Please understand that I have no credentials stating that I am in any way a professional on the matter, but I can tell you that I have been researching the effects of radiation on health and the environment since the mid 80's.
In episode 3-2 we looked at evidence of fresh Fukushima fallout in the Bering Straits, we touched on a mysterious disease that's killing dogs. I also walked you through how to read between the lines when reading research abstracts. I used the honey sample abstract from Polish researchers as an example. Like milk, honey is used as a marker to detect environmental radiation. We also touched on how cesium-137 affects the heart and we took a look at a 25 year study that was done on individuals that lived in a contaminated area in the Ukraine. And as always, I explained how you can use the law of selective uptake to your advantage.

In this episode, we'll take an ever closer look at how cesium-137 effects heart tissue and we'll touch on Dr. Bernard Jensen's book, The Chemistry of Man and take a look at how he sees potassium's role in the body. And, I'll give you my rundown of which potassium rich foods top my list of preferences. Then we’ll wrap up the episode with Chris Busby’s recommendations on what to do to help children living in contaminated regions in Japan and his assessment of how fundamentally flawed “official” statistics are when it comes to assessing people’s risk when it involves radioactive cesium.

 
The Law of Selective Uptake
Before we get rolling, I'd like to quickly review how you can use the law of selective uptake to your advantage. In a nutshell, the law of selective uptake is this, radioactive isotopes mimic elements. Today the spotlight is on cesium-137. Cesium-137 mimics potassium. Strontium-90 mimics calcium. Plutonium-239 mimics iron. Each radioactive isotope mimics a specific element, except for cobalt-60. That mimics vitamin B12. Theoretically, if we keep our bodies saturated with a rich supply of ionic minerals and elements, it  may repel the harmful effects of radiation and maintain your DNA's integrity.

As I mentioned in episode 3, part 2, the myocardial cells in the heart are especially at risk due to the sodium/potassium pump and cesium’s affinity for potassium. In that episode, I explained how the sodium/potassium pump worked.

 
Radioactive Cesium May Become Absorbed by the Heart Muscle without Resistance
Since radioactive cesium is similar to potassium, it gets absorbed into the heart muscles without any resistance. The cellular membranes responsible for keeping harmful influences out are fooled into accepting radioactive cesium as if it were potassium. From there, radioactive cesium goes onto interfere with essential enzyme processes.

 
Radioactive Cesium Interacts with Cell Membranes and Creates a Serious Threat

It turns out that radioactive cesium interacts with the cell membranes and suppresses an essential enzyme called creatine phosphokinase. Creatine is essential to cellular energy metabolism.
